Story
Meet Lucy! Lucy is a very high energy, fun-loving, loyal sweetheart. She is very playful, loves to run, and is VERY social. Lucy can be pretty strong-willed, but she is also very smart. She knows her training, but is too stubborn sometimes to obey. She really needs someone to bond with, that will give her the time and devotion she needs. She definitely needs a lot of training, as she is still under 1 year old and we cannot afford the proper training she needs. She also needs a LOT of space, as she LOVES to run and play catch! A fenced in yard, and a very active owner would be best for her. We rescued her at 2 months old from a local shelter but we live in an apartment in the city, and due to heath issues, I cannot keep up with her energy. Even though its hard, we have accepted that we are not the best fit for her, and have chosen to see if we can find someone who can truly give her what she needs! She is so sweet, and the biggest baby, and has so much potential to be your best friend!

Lucy is a rescue pup and was adopted at 6 months old and has been with us for the last five years. Lucy is a snuggle bug who likes to be in your lap 24/7, and insists on sofa privileges! She loves to run and play, but spends most of her afternoons napping. Her favorite things are sunbathing and playing fetch! Lucy would love a happy, energetic home that can give her lots of space and attention!

Story
Meet Max! He is a 1 yr old neutered male German Pinscher/Doberman Pinscher that weighs 66lbs. He came into the Mesquite Animal Shelter on 10/14 as an owner surrender. Reason given was he had too many animals, and Max was a big pup. He has been very well cared for, clean soft fur, and may be housetrained. He is an extremely handsome boy, and always has a smile on his face. Despite being left at the shelter, he has an upbeat, happy go lucky personality. And such a silly playful side too. He found a stuffed toy and he threw it up in the air and bounced around the shelter yard. He walks well on a leash and takes treats gently. On occasion he does get excited and will try to jump, yet he can be quickly redirected with the sit command. Very smart pup! He hopes he can find a loving family with a secured yard, take him for walks and enrichment, shower him with plenty of stuffed toys and be close and cuddly with his human companions inside on his own dog bed. Tho he had no reaction to other dogs barking at him, we do ask if there is another dog in the home please ask the shelter for a dog test. Come meet this wonderful boy!!

Story
Meet Bleu â&#194&#128&#194&#147 Your Future Best Friend! Say hello to Bleu, the sweetest and silliest boy youâ&#194&#128&#194&#153ll ever meet! Bleu is a 1.5-year-old, 70 lb Rhodesian Ridgeback mix with a heart as big as his paws. With his playful energy and loving nature, he's the perfect companion for someone whoâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s ready for both adventure and snuggles. Bleu was rehomed after his previous family realized they didnâ&#194&#128&#194&#153t have the time to give him the attention he deserves. Since then, heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s been thriving in foster careâ&#194&#128&#194&#148loving life, learning quickly, and waiting patiently for his forever home. This affectionate guy is happiest when heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s with his humansâ&#194&#128&#194&#148whether itâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s playing fetch, tug-of-war, rolling in the grass, or simply relaxing with some belly rubs. Heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s incredibly social and gets along well with other dogs. He currently lives with two foster dog siblings (a dachshund and a chow chow!) and loves romping around with them in the yard. Bleu is crate-trained, house-trained, and making great progress on leash walking. Heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s a smart cookie who already knows commands like â&#194&#128&#194&#156sit,â&#194&#128&#194&#157 â&#194&#128&#194&#156shake,â&#194&#128&#194&#157 and â&#194&#128&#194&#156lay downâ&#194&#128&#194&#157â&#194&#128&#194&#148especially when treats are involved! Bleuâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s ideal home would be with someone who has the time and patience to keep up with a young pupâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s energy and curiosity. A fenced yard or regular walks would make him so happy. In return, you'll get a loyal, goofy, and loving companion. Are you ready to give Bleu the loving forever home heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s been dreaming of?

Story
PLEASE READ ABOUT PAXTON We are searching for a family for Paxton who can foster him until he's ready to be adopted. Paxton will need a family who has some dog experience and who can handle a big, strong boy. He's very well-behaved and loving and snuggly. His only vice is the leash. He likely had some traumatic experience before he came to us and he's not a huge fan of having a leash on or having it taken off. He's been staying with one of our training teams, and they've made huge progress with him. He has come so far, but he'll need someone who can continue working with him. Without the leash, Paxton is a big ol' goofball. He loves belly rubs and is such a sweetheart. He enjoys playing with toys, and he's a huge fan of snacks. Paxton is a handsome boy and just wants to be your best friend. We would like to find a family who would like to foster Paxton while he finishes up his training and care. He will be able to be formally adopted once he's finished everything ADOPTION APPLICATION: https://iamdogrescue.org/adoption-application/ ***IMPORTANT- PLEASE READ*** Our adoption fee is $175. We require an application to be completed prior to setting up a meet-and-greet. We do not offer "on-the-spot" adoptions. We do not adopt on a first-come, first-served basis. We do our best to match dogs with families that will be a good fit to help ensure a successful adoption. We reserve the right to decline any application for any reason. Due to the nature of our adoption process, our fosters are usually only able to consider forever families within a reasonable driving distance of the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. A vet reference is required, and a trial period will be completed before finalizing the adoption. Thank you for your understanding.
