Story
 Hi everyone! My name is Jet because I’m super fast and jet black as you can see. I love all people and dogs, even the ones who bark too much and are cranky. Everyone is my friend on walks at the dog park and daycare which is heaven!!! Since my foster Dad found me off the highway when I was skinny & limping he has done everything he can to help me even though he is a cat dad and never had a dog. He even took me to one on one training so we both could learn what to do. We've both come so far and we're both so well behaved now haha. I was neutered in early January and it's helped me calm down lots. From day one belly rubs and hugs have been my thing. I can't get enough and go bonkers when my foster gets home or picks me up at daycare. I'm super sweet and will give kisses and actually smile and hug you or hold hands. I've learned to sleep next to him as well and it's really nice to snuggle. I'm pretty much house trained and my foster didn't even know what he was doing, but he put out pee pads for me and I learned to go on those and then to hold it and go to the patio door or wake him up so I can go pee outside. If I don't wake him I used the pee pads and he is so proud of me. He has let me run around the whole backyard and depending on the weather has the AC or heat on in the shed so I can go in there when I want and he gave me a bed and food and water and many things to chew. I’ll chew on things if they’re left out but in the six months I've lived here now it's really only the toys he gives me and old shoes he lets me chew up. I really want a brother or sister to play with and humans that are dog people as I'm super super sociable. Sometimes my hip still hurts me so I need someone who will give me rest days as well as daycare! The only thing I need to complete my perfect life is a forever home. If you would like to meet me please contact this pawsome group!. I'd sure love to meet you!

Story
Looking for a home for Harley, an adorable female pit mix, chipped, spayed, and up to date on her shots. We adopted her from the Garland shelter during the summer. She's around 2 years old and 60lb, should be done growing. She's housebroken and does great inside and outside, not a single accident in our house. She loves to play with people and other dogs, you can throw balls in the yard all day and she'll keep bringing them back to you. Harley has low energy while the family is out most of the day, but she can get bored, so hard toys like bones and rubber Kongs do the trick. Her play energy is unfortunately too much for our older, smaller pets, we have to keep them separated more often than not. After several months, the resident dog and cat still haven't warmed up to her, and we won't be able to keep Harley.

Ace came to us in the begging of June with his 4 puppy's and momma.Ace and his family came from a neglect and abandon situation.The rest of his family have gotten adopted andAce was supposed to stay our dog but unfortunately the owner of his house had a stoke and will not be back in her home.Ace is a very weary dog who trusts little to no one.Ace needs an experience and patient handler as he has bitten someone who was watching over him that he didn't know(It wasn't aggressive she was trying to pet him andhe was scared)Ace is very sweet and willing once he trusts you.He knows sit, stay and lay down.It took months for each of us to gain his trust and we never rushed him.Ace doesn't like baths is good in the crate except he will whine at first.If he is left alone or gets bored hehas a tendency to chew pillows or wood. He loves walks.From what we know Ace is good with big dog but has a very high prey drive. He will take lots of patience but is a very good boy.Let me know if you have questi

Story
Brisket is a high energy, cuddly, and sweet American pit bull. She is fiercely loyal. While she is extremely affectionate toward her family, she is constantly on guard against potential dangers but is simultaneously terrible at determining what a true danger is. She has given warning bites (has never broken skin) on walks and to "intruders" (guests) in her house. If the dog or person is part of her family, she loves to wrestle, cuddle, play fetch and tug of war, chase the water hose, jump on the trampoline, and ride bikes. If the dog or person is not part of her family, she immediately assumes they are a threat and displays aggressive behaviors. We love Brisket so much, but we do not have the means to keep her and everyone around us (including young children) safe while she is being trained. She needs to be with someone who can teach her consistent long distance recall, down, and leave it. She does not randomly snap, but she does need her protective instinct redirected.

Story
My name is Boulder. I am a 2 year old 100% American Pit Bull Terrier. My parents found me starving in a park south of Dallas a year ago and nursed me back to health. I am a fun loving, loyal, and adventurous dog who loves to play tug of war and snuggle. My parents feel I have a bit too much energy to share the house with a new baby. I am not good with puppies or larger dogs, so a single dog home would be best for me. (Though I do currently share a home with a puggle and border collie and love playing with them). I enjoy meeting new people, but sometimes can get a bit too excited and can invade peoples personal space with kisses. My parents have been training me with an e-collar which has helped me control this and are passing on two lessons with my trainer to my new parents. From my rough past, I need positive reinforcement and a new owner that has patience to work with me and give me praise when I do things right. In return, I will snuggle, lick, and be your most loyal best friend!

Story
Hello there, my name is Sandy! I'm a sweet and sensitive pup who just wants someone to love and cuddle with. When I'm around my favorite humans, I'll follow them everywhere they go. It just makes me so happy to be near the people I care about! I'm a bit shy at first, but with a little patience and some gentle encouragement, I warm up to new friends quickly. Squeaky toys and cozy blankets are my absolute favorites - they make me feel safe and secure.  As for other furry friends, I prefer to hang out with calmer dogs. If you already have pets at home, a meet-and-greet would be a great idea so we can make sure we'll be the best of companions. Now, as much as I love the shelter staff, what I really want is a family of my own to love and cherish. If you're interested in adopting or fostering to adopt me, please reach out to Rowlett Animal Shelter. I can't wait to meet you and start our new adventure together!April 15, 2024, 3:34 pm

Hi there! I’m Steelix and I'm a loving and affectionate boy looking for a new place to call home. My floppy ears are just too cute, don't you think? I love being outside and I'm great on a leash. Whether you want to go for a run, a walk, or a leisurely stroll, count me in! I don't need all of your attention, but I do enjoy hanging out close to my humans. Treats are my absolute favorite, and I am always gentle when taking one from you. If you have other pets at home, a meet-and-greet would be a good idea because I can be picky about my doggy pals. I'm a cool pup and I get along with most people, but I have to admit that I'm not the best around unfamiliar men. I need a bit of time to warm up to them and feel at ease - so gradual introductions are essential. That's why I think I would be happiest in a home with only adults, or a household with older kids where I can be surrounded by familiar faces and lots of love. I'm a friendly and affectionate guy once I get to know you, so you won't be disappointed if you give me a chance. In my downtime, you can catch me lounging on the couch or playing with fun toys and getting belly rubs. I'm such a well-behaved guy, you won't even know I'm there! So why not come and see me? I promise to fill your life with love and happiness. If you would like more information about me or would like to adopt or foster to adopt me, please contact Rowlett Animal Shelter.April 15, 2024, 3:34 pm

Story
Hi there, I'm Donald, a brindle and white male pup ready to find my forever home. I must say, I am a very, very good boy! I've managed to put on some healthy weight and now I'm feeling and looking great. Last weekend, I had a wonderful walk and I must say, I am super easy on the leash. No pulling or tugging, just a nice leisurely stroll. I love going for walks and exploring new places, so I hope my new family enjoys that too. Once I get to know you, I'm a sweet and loving companion. It might take me a little time to learn to trust, but once I do, I'll show you how much love I have to give. I'm looking for someone patient and understanding who will take the time to let me know that people are good. I came from a rough past, but it doesn't define me. Despite everything, I am still so full of love and affection. I'm ready to leave the past behind and start a new chapter with you. I promise to be loyal, dedicated, and a true best friend. If you're searching for a dog who needs a little extra love, care, and patience, then I could be the perfect match for you. Together, we can create a new beginning filled with happiness, trust, and endless cuddles. I can't wait to meet my forever family and start our journey together. See you soon!
