Story
Rasha is a four year old Akita with a goofy personality and a watchful nature. She loves a good game of chase, hiking, bike outings, and exploring outside. She also enjoys finding a high spot where she can perch and observe the world around her. Rasha has been wonderful with the people she’s met. She rides well in the car and walks nicely on leash, though she can get excited about an adventure. She does very well outside of a crate and can be crated with a little protest. She has lived successfully alongside other dogs in her foster home, but we describe her as dog tolerant. She doesn’t need a busy social life with other dogs, and any potential canine housemate will need thoughtful introductions and an individual assessment. Her foster is continuing to learn about her personality and preferences. Rasha is looking for a home that understands and appreciates Akitas, provides clear guidance, and enjoys spending time outdoors. She’s ready for her own people, her own adventures, and a place to call home.

Story
Hi, I'm Luk! I'm a a 55 lb beautiful good girl who is the perfect mix of playful and calm — I love a good walk and exploring all the outdoor smells (squirrels and bunnies get me *very* excited, though I promise it's all in good fun). But I'm just as happy curled up quietly beside you while you read, work, or relax. **A little about me:** - I'm smart and love a good challenge — puzzle toys, training games, bring it on - Treats are my love language, and I could get belly rubs forever - I'm not a fan of the heat — after a walk, I'm ready for A/C and a cool floor over cozy carpet any day - I'm house trained - I'm still working on being left alone, but I've made huge progress and I know I'll settle in once I have a consistent home **With others:** I seem to love other dogs and people — I get excited to say hi when we pass dogs on our walks! I haven't met a cat yet, so we'll see. I really miss having a buddy around, so I think I'd do best with another animal companion to keep me secure, entertained, and less anxious. **My ideal home:** I'd love a family with a yard, plenty of people around to love on me, and maybe a furry sibling for company. I do best with minimal time home alone — someone who works from home or has a flexible schedule would be perfect. With consistent exercise and mental stimulation, I know I'll thrive. I promise to bring so much love and joy into your life. I look at you with the gentlest eyes, and honestly, I just want to be near you. Come meet me? Interested in adding Luk to your pack?

Story
Meet Nelly   Nelly is a beautiful 5 year old Akita mix with a gentle heart and an easygoing personality. She isn't the type who needs constant entertainment. She's perfectly happy relaxing on her own, but the moment you sit down to give her attention, she's all in for affection and love.   She is housebroken, non-destructive, and gets along well with other dogs. Whether she's sharing a home with canine friends or soaking up the peace and quiet as your one and only, Nelly is simply happy to be part of the family.   Nelly's story is a heartbreaking one. She was abandoned when the family she loved moved away, leaving her behind to fend for herself. Despite that betrayal, she has remained sweet, trusting, and full of love to give. Now all she wants is a family who will never leave her again.   If you're looking for a loyal, calm companion who will happily spend her days by your side, Nelly is ready to start her next chapter with you.   Adoption application: https://petstablished.com/adoption_form/13102/generic ##2777382##

Story
Age: 3 years Weight: 40 lbs Good with dogs: Yes Good with cats: Unknown Good with kids: Unknown Activity level: High Shedding Level: High Training: Basic, Leash Skylar is a gorgeous husky/shepherd mix with striking blue eyes. He is about 3 years old. Skylar had been injured during his time on the streets and had TPLO surgery on his leg last year. He has since recovered nicely. He absolutely loves to run and play! He likes to try to be in charge, but takes correction well. He loves to play with other dogs and get out his energy. He gets nervous with quick movements and takes a minute to adjust to new people and situations. With a little patience and plenty of treats he will warm right up and ask for pets. Once he is comfortable, he loves pets, giving kisses, and cuddling! He will even gently reach over and pull your hand back with his paw if you stop petting him before he is ready.  Skylar finished his training on basic obedience commands and socialization and is ready for a foster or forever home! Does Skylar sound like your kind of guy? Email placement@duckteam6.org or visit our website to fill out an application.October 14, 2026, 4:52 pm

Story
If you’re looking for a loyal companion who wants nothing more than to be by your side, Sammie might be your guy! Sammie is a calm, sweet, and smart pup whose love language is definitely quality time. He’s a total shadow and happiest simply hanging out with his people. He gets along well with both large and small pups and enjoys spending time outdoors. Sammie is potty trained, walks well on a leash, and has a moderate energy level. He enjoys daily walks and outdoor time but is equally happy relaxing with you at home. And if you really want to win him over, Milk-Bones and Three Dog Bakery cookies are the way to his heart! Sammie was found as a lost dog, and despite efforts to locate his family, no owner was found. Now he’s looking for a loving home where he can finally settle in and have a person of his own. If you want a gentle, affectionate best friend who will happily follow you from room to room, Sammie is ready to meet you!

Story
At two years old, Indy’s a girl who brings a perfect mix of playful pup and affectionate friend to every day. She’ll come, sit, and stay if there’s a treat on the line. She’ll skip the stuffed and fluffed toys for big energy fun like running and jumping. Finding an active family will be a perfect fit for Indy. A big, fenced yard would be a dream come true for this energetic girl, whether she shares it with another dog or just uses her space to run and play chase. She hasn’t figured out the concept of fetch, so she’ll just run and jump and run some more. In addition to plenty of activity, Indy definitely wants a lot of love and affection. She’ll even ask for pets if she thinks it’s been too long since the last one. She likes to curl up on the couch with her family and enjoys a calm and quiet home once it’s time to unwind. She may be named Indy, but ‘affection’ is the best word for her. All Dallas Pets Alive adoptable pets are spayed or neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines upon adoption.
