Hi, I’m Joey! I’m a sweet, smiling cuddlebug who just loves being around people. I’m completely potty and crate trained, and while I might get a little jumpy in my kennel, once I’m outside, I’m calm and happy. I adore attention, love going on walks, and can’t wait to find a patient family who will let me shine. Thunderstorms and loud noises can spook me, but with your love, I know I’ll feel safe. If you’re looking for a loyal, affectionate best friend and someone you can watch some Netflix I’m your guy!  Personality & Traits: Training: Completely potty-trained and crate-trained Home Life: Lived with adults, a 6-year-old child, and another dog; crated when left alone With Dogs: Bossy but playful; loves to wrestle With Kids: Playful With Cats: Never met one With People: Affectionate, social butterfly, very attached Personality: Cuddlebug, couch potato, needy but sweet Leash Skills: Walks well, easy on the leash Favorite Things: Attention, time outdoors, walks, and snuggles Call the shelter at 972-744-4480 or email AskRichardsonAnimalServices@cor.gov to learn more.September 15, 2025, 2:27 pm

Story
Tiger is now in foster and showing what a great dog he is! He’s lived with kids, another dog, and is gentle, affectionate, and playful. This social butterfly loves toys, cuddles, and has energy to spare. He knows “sit,” loves everyone he meets. Loud noises can make him nervous but he is a sweetheart and thinks he is a lap dog. Tiger came into the shelter with his brother, Cass, but they are not bonded and can be adopted separately. If you’re looking for a perfect pair, though, these two would make a fun, loving match! Tiger is ready for a forever home where he can share his playful spirit, loyalty, and endless love! Call the shelter at 972-744-4480 or email AskRichardsonAnimalServices@cor.gov to learn more and schedule an appointment to meet him since he is in a foster home.September 11, 2025, 3:55 pm

Story
Hi, I’m Raven! Life took a turn when I was brought in as a stray, and sadly, no one ever came to reclaim me. But I’ve been given a fresh start—the shelter gave me a dental cleaning and took out some broken teeth, so now I’m feeling so much better. I absolutely adore people, love to be pet, and enjoy playing around. I think I’d do best as your one-and-only dog, but if you have other pups, a meet-and-greet will help us see if we can be friends. She is  HW+, but you can foster to adopt , which means the dog stays with you until treatment is completed and they are cleared, at no extra cost to you. The dog comes off the adoption website once you are signed up for the foster to adopt program, or you can choose to go ahead and adopt, which at that point you are responsible for taking care of the treatment and the cost.

Story
How Is Pebbles Still Available For Adoption?! Meet Pebbles, an adorable young gal with lots & lots of love to offer. She's so incredibly sweet! She's gentle & has a playful, silly side too. She's very happy being near someone, especially if they're offering pets & belly rubs.🥰 Pebbles gets along very well with other dogs & she absolutely adores people. She's been nonreactive to cats, even as near as a couple feet from them. She gets very excited to meet new people & will jump with joy at first. After that, she shows that she has good manners.😇 Pebbles would love to find a forever home & become part of a loving family. If given the chance, she would certainly be a devoted companion. Her bright, good-natured personality makes it impossible not to love her.💖 Pebbles' journey: Pebbles & her friend Blue were discovered on the side of a rural highway last winter. It was obvious they'd been dumped there like trash. Every day, they were in the same spot & seemed to be waiting for someone to come for them. That's what abandoned dogs do. They wait. And wait. And wait for the despicable human who left them there to return.. Dogs are loyal by nature. Many humans don't deserve them. A good samaritan fed & watered them in that spot each day for a week. Then the temps dropped to below freezing & that's where we came in.. Besides malnourished, Pebbles was pregnant. No foster homes were available, so she was spayed & boarded at the vet. With plenty of TLC, Pebbles recovered very well. She's always been super grateful & easygoing. She's a beautiful dog, inside & out.🩷 Pebbles is 1 & 1/2 yrs of age & she weighs approx 45-50 lbs. She's spayed, fully vaccinated & hw neg. She's current on preventions. Her 🎶 video: https://www.facebook.com/share/r/1816taFfy8/ To meet Pebbles, please reach out! 615-540-8448 Furever Home Pet Rescue bemyforeverhome.org 🧸Please remember to copy-paste-SHARE this post so we can help Pebbles find the loving forever home she deserves!
