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
Meet Willow ❤️We are looking for a loving, experienced home for our sweet girl, Willow. She is 1 year and 9 months old, spayed, fully potty trained, crate trained, and knows sit, stay, and down. She loves walks, tug-of-war, cuddling, and watching TV. She must live indoors in a climate-controlled home.We want to be completely transparent about her challenges. Willow can be dominant/aggressive with other dogs and would do best as the only pet. She also has resource-guarding issues with items such as trash or socks. She has snapped at us and recently bit our daughter's hand when she tried to take trash from her.Because of this, Willow needs an experienced adult home without young children or other pets, ideally someone willing to work with a professional trainer or veterinary behaviorist. She is a sweet dog who deserves the right environment, patience, structure, and love. Our goal is finding the safest and best fit for her. ❤️

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 Lainey! As of 09/28/26, Lainey has spent 90 days in our care, earning her place as one of Rockwall Adoption Center's Diamond Dogs. This sweet girl has been waiting far too long for someone to see just how special she is. Lainey's story has not been an easy one. She was surrendered when her previous owner was no longer able to care for her, and now this approximately 2 year old Husky mix weighing around 45 pounds is ready for a fresh start with a family who will give her the patience and security she deserves. Lainey can be shy when she first meets someone, but underneath that uncertainty is a very sweet girl who begins to shine once she feels safe. She is still learning how to navigate the world with confidence and would do best with an experienced dog owner who can provide consistency, structure, guidance, and plenty of positive reinforcement as she continues learning how to simply be a dog. Continued leash training will help Lainey build confidence and become the best version of herself. She does well with other dogs and cats but has not lived with children. If you currently have another pet in the home, a meet and greet is recommended prior to adoption to help ensure everyone is a good match. Lainey is spayed, microchipped, current on her basic annual boosters, and heartworm negative. As a Diamond Dog, Lainey's adoption fee is $75. Ninety days is a long time to wait for a home. Lainey may need a little extra patience in the beginning, but for the person willing to give her that chance, she has so much love and potential waiting to come out. If you are ready to give Lainey the time, patience, and care she deserves, please submit an adoption application today at https://rockwalladoptions.com/adoptfoster/adoption-application/. Please share Lainey and help us make sure she does not spend another 90 days waiting.  All animals, unless otherwise noted in their description, are at 1825 Airport Rd. in Rockwall, TX. Hours of operation are Monday-Friday 9 am to 6 pm and Saturdays 9 am to 5 pm. For questions, please call 972-771-7750 ext. 2 or email info@RockwallAdoptions.com. IMPORTANT NOTICE: All shelter animals are required by Texas state law to be spayed/neutered. RAC completes this procedure at the age of 12 weeks. If you are adopting a pet under the age of 12 weeks or an animal that has not yet been spayed or neutered, you will be required to return the pet to our facility on the agreed upon date set at the time of adoption. This policy is non-negotiable and violation of this health code is a criminal offense. October 12, 2026, 6:39 pm

Story
Meet Owen! Owen is a handsome approximately 2-year-old Shepherd/Husky mix weighing around 54 pounds who is ready to find his FURever home! He was originally found as a stray on 9/30/26 and, after never being reclaimed, is now hoping to find a family of his own. Owen is a friendly, people-loving guy who is eager to learn and would love a family willing to continue helping him become the best dog he can be. He is currently living in a foster home with three other dogs and has done well with them. He is also crate trained, has good leash manners, and has done well with children. More than anything, Owen seems happiest simply spending time with his people and being included in everyday life. Owen's adoption fee is $125. He is neutered, microchipped, current on his annual boosters, and heartworm negative. If Owen sounds like the missing piece to your family, submit an online adoption application today! Since he is currently in a foster home, RAC staff will contact approved applicants to coordinate a meet and greet with his foster.

Meet Montana, a 2-year-old, 65-pound Shepherd mix who has been waiting 128 days for his forever home. Now a Diamond Dog, his adoption fee is just $75. Montana came to us with a severe neck injury from an overly tight collar, but he has healed well and continues to gain confidence. He is gentle, walks well on leash, and would do best with a patient family willing to provide structure and encouragement. Montana needs a cat-free home, and a meet and greet is required with resident dogs. He is heartworm positive, but his treatment is sponsored by Rockwall PAWS. He is also neutered, microchipped, and current on vaccinations. Montana is currently in a foster home, and an approved online adoption application is required for meet and greets and adoption.
