Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Tyana is one of several dogs who were found on a ranch in the Texas Hill Country. We can only speculate, but we believe that the property owners moved away and left the dogs to fend for themselves.  Tyana's mom Lydia is VERY friendly, but her pups (two generations) are completely unsocialized, so we're guessing they may have been born after the people moved. It's quite possible that the Animal Control Officers who hauled away Tyana and her family were the first humans that she ever had any close contact with. At Windsong Ranch, Tyana is very slowly learning to trust me, but she is still extremely skittish of people in general. Getting her to walk on a leash in order to go to the vet's office is a real challenge, but we've managed it, and once at the vet's office, Tyana has remained calm and quiet. She seems content to stay inside the house, but seems happier and less anxious when she is outside. Tyana gets along well with other dogs and is very playful with them. We believe she would do best in a home with a confident male dog, who can help her see that humans are trustworthy. Due to her skittish nature, she MUST go to a home with secure (visible) fencing. If you are ready to make the commitment to devote yourself to earning Tyana's trust, please complete the application on our website. NOTE: I really struggle to get decent photos of Tyana -- she almost always looks very anxious, even when she's happy -- it's like she's in witness protection and thinks that having her photo taken puts her life at risk. In some of these photos, she is hanging out with other unsocialized or feral dogs, and moments before I pulled out my phone, they were usually happy and smiling, but as soon as I point the camera at them, most of them look like I might be about to kill them. Silly dogs. Also, in some photos, she has what looks like an injury diagonal across her face. Nope, that's just a berry stain. Tyana likes to dig, and it shows in some of these photos.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Young Bennie was picked up as a stray in our rural area, so we don't know anything about his past. He came into rescue with some skin issues which are being treated. At the moment, we're not sure whether he has seasonal allergies, or whether his itchiness was all related to Demodectic mange, which is very common in puppies and young dogs. What we DO know is that Bennie is sweet as can be! In his foster home, he loves having plenty of room for running his zoomies, and he enjoys playing with other dogs. He enjoys sleeping on a big comfy dog bed, and he is a little bit of a hoarder with his stuffed animal toys. Bennie has been neutered and vaccinated, and is ready to find his happily ever after story. Apply here!  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 7, 2026, 7:05 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Curly Sue came to us from Oklahoma. Her eyes and build look somewhat Akbash, and her curly coat looks like possibly Kuvasz, or maybe it's produced from a combination of Akbash and Komondor. She is a wonderful livestock guardian. She’s not well socialized with people, but she’s great with our goats, good with other dogs, and hasn’t bothered our barn cats. She is shy but will take a treat from me, so that's an excellent way to start winning her trust. She avoids my touch, but when I manage to get my hands on her, she seems to enjoy have her ears and butt scratched. She was never taught to wear a collar or walk on a leash, so we haven’t yet been able to get her to our chicken yard to test her with chickens. If you need an LGD for goats and don’t have chickens, or keep them in their own coop and yard like we do, then Curly Sue might be the right dog for you!Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 10, 2026, 10:47 am

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Emma is one of 6 puppies born to Akbash mom Victoria on a ranch in Central Texas, in the middle of the pasture, surrounded by goats and longhorn cattle. There are multiple working livestock guardian dogs on the ranch, so dad to the puppies is likely an Akbash or Great Pyrenees. Since coming to Bluebonnet, Emma and her siblings have had 3 rounds of vaccinations, along with deworming and monthly preventives. Texas law requires us to spay/neuter all puppies within a certain timeframe, but we can adopt them out on a provisional adoption agreement that is finalized only after the pup has been sterilized. These puppies can be adopted as a family pet/companion, or as future livestock guardians. Either way, they will need appropriate training and supervision, whether that's crate-training and potty-training, or getting them through the stages that even the best LGD puppies go through when they think livestock are playmates. These puppies have NOT been exposed to chickens -- only to goats and cattle. They have had some exposure to our barn cats, but would need proper introductions and supervision in order to live with house cats.

Story
Meet Barney! This pup was wondering around our community for weeks as a stray. Catching him wasn’t easy but let me tell ya, now that he’s had a taste of AC he’s never going back to the stray life haha. Barney in typical Great Pyrenees fashion is an absolute LOVER. He wants do be near his humans and he wants that Pyr fur all over you! Great with dogs big and small although not super playful. Definitely more of a wallflower with the occasional zoomie. Leash work is still a work in progress which for this breed is a lifelong project. What he lacks in that department however he makes up for in looks and charm. -House/Crate Trained -Good with other dogs -Over the top loving -Moderate energy -Loves being with his human. Barney is such a sweet and well tempered boy that woudl do best in a quiet house, as he can be a nervous nelly. We do not ships dog out of state. All adopters must travel to Dallas to meet their potential animal in person before moving forward with an adoption trial run.

Story
Meet Peanut Butter! Peanut Butter is an approximately 9-week-old (as of 03/16/26) male Anatolian Shepherd mix who currently weighs 11 lbs. This adorable pup was found at Harry Myers Park in Rockwall on 03/09/26, and after completing his stray hold with no owner coming forward, he is now looking for a loving forever home. Like all puppies, Peanut Butter is full of curiosity, energy, and potential. Puppies require time, patience, training, and consistency to grow into well-mannered adult dogs. His future family should be prepared to help him learn important life skills such as house training, crate training, basic obedience, proper socialization with people and other dogs, and appropriate chewing habits. Puppies thrive with structure, positive reinforcement, regular veterinary care, and plenty of exercise and mental enrichment. Peanut Butter's adoption fee is $125, which includes his neuter, microchip, rabies vaccination, first round of puppy boosters, and first dewormer. All pets adopted under the age of 12 weeks are required to return to Rockwall Adoptions (RAC) for their spay/neuter surgery and rabies vaccination in accordance with Texas state law. Peanut Butter is scheduled to be neutered on Wednesday, April 8, 2026, and this date is non-negotiable. All underage pets require an approved online adoption application before meet and greets can be scheduled. Meet and greets are arranged on a first-come, first-served basis by approved application only.

Story
Meet Champ - A Big Heart Looking for the Right Home Champ is a 2-year-old, 71-pound Anatolian Shepherd mix who has been waiting over 326 days (as of 02/20/26) for his forever family. As one of our Diamond Dogs, his adoption fee is just $75 - but the devotion he offers is truly priceless. Champ is deeply people-focused and bonds hard with his person. He thrives on connection and wants to be part of daily life, whether that's structured walks, training time, or relaxing at your feet. He walks beautifully on a leash, enjoys pack walks, and has shown he responds well to consistent guidance and leadership. He's intelligent, eager to learn, and does best with clear boundaries and routine. Champ is playful and energetic, especially outdoors, and would enjoy a home that can match his enthusiasm. He may do well with a carefree, submissive female canine companion, or he may prefer soaking up all the attention as the only dog. He is not suited for homes with cats or small animals. Because of his size, strength, and loyal nature, Champ would do best with older children or adults who are comfortable handling a large dog. He also requires a securely fenced yard (minimum 8-foot fence, no chain link) and should not be left unattended outside. Champ is neutered, microchipped, up to date on vaccinations, and heartworm positive, with treatment fully covered thanks to Rockwall PAWS. Champ isn't just looking for a home - he's looking for his person. In the right environment, he will be an incredibly loyal, affectionate companion who gives his whole heart. Apply to adopt Champ here: https://rockwalladoptions.com/adoptfoster/adoption-application/ Champ is ready for his fresh start.  All animals, unless otherwise noted in their description, are at 1825 Airport Rd. in Rockwall, TX.
