Story
ADOPT RANGER! Ranger is the cutest little guy! He's a little nervous sometimes in new situations, and he would love to find a family with another doggie BFF for him. He loves to play and thinks toys are just wonderful. Ranger plays hard and then crashes hard wherever he might be at the time. He can seriously sleep anywhere! He enjoys sunbathing and gets pretty excited when he gets to try new treats and snacks. Ranger is a very sweet boy. He loves his furry foster brother. He hates the rain and thinks having wet paws is beneath him. He will make sure you know when he's unhappy about being cold and prefers to wear a sweater when it's chilly. He's a silly, fun-loving pup, and he'd love to bring some sunshine and joy to you! Please consider making Ranger a part of your family.

Story
Hi I&#39m Kiera! People are my favorite thing in the whole world! I cannot contain my excitement when people come near me! After I greet you and wiggle my body all over then I can relax with you and hang out on the couch. I am crate trained but I would prefer to sleep next to you on the bed. I get along with dogs my size and who like to play a lot. I can play a little rough sometimes so I would do better in a home with a dog who likes to play like I do. I love kids but I would do better in a home with older children due to my excitement when people come and I forget how big I am. If you feel your home might be the right place for this wonderful dog, the place to start is with the adoption application found at www.dfwrescueme.org/adopt. Once submitted, the foster will contact you to tell you more, and to arrange a meeting! The adoption fee for all of our dogs is $300.00, which includes their vaccinations and spay/neuter. Kiera is participating in the DFW Rescue Me Guest Dog Program, so custody and ongoing care are provided by the foster, not by DFWRM.June 22, 2025, 12:59 pm

Story
Brock is a 4-year-old American Bully with a big heart and an even bigger personality. At around 80 pounds, he&#39s a short stocky guy who adores people and lives for love, toys, treats, and walks. He&#39s been called a &#34Gentle Giant,&#34 and it fits. He&#39s sweet, affectionate, and so ready for his forever home. One look into Brock&#39s soulful eyes and you&#39ll feel it, this dog knows he&#39s been given a second chance and he&#39s not wasting a moment of it!! If you&#39re looking for a loyal companion who will greet you with joy, snuggle like a pro, and who&#39ll change your life, just like you&#39ll change his- Brock is your guy! He&#39s doing beautifully in his foster home and in training, continues to blossom with each passing day. Brock must be the only pet in the home and needs a secure, 6-foot fenced yard to keep him safe during outdoor playtime. He&#39ll thrive with an experienced dog owner who understands strong, loving breeds like the American Bully. The adoption fee for all of our dogs is $300.00 and that includes their vaccinations, spay or neuter, rabies and microchip. Our dogs are also heartworm negative (or we will cover their treatment). To start the process please visit our website and fill out the adoption application (www.dfwrescueme.org) and from there the foster family can answer any questions and arrange a time to meet. Brock is participating in the DFW Rescue Me Guest Dog Program, so custody and ongoing care are provided by the foster, not by DFWRMSeptember 22, 2025, 4:28 pm

Story
Maggie is still searching for her forever family—and she’s been patiently waiting for nearly three years! This sweet girl is all heart and would love nothing more than to spend her days getting belly rubs and hanging out with her people. Maggie gets along well with other dogs, as long as they’re not overly pushy or reactive. Her ideal canine companion would be a laid-back dog who enjoys lounging around the house. She would thrive as an only dog too! Maggie loves walks, car rides, and is potty trained and kennel trained. She’s a 6 year old American Pit Bull Terrier/American Bulldog/American Staffordshire Terrier mix. Due to her breed mix, she’s best suited for a home (no apartments, please). If you’re ready to give Maggie the loving home she deserves, please fill out an application at rescuerowinc.org! *Please check your junk email folder if you do not receive a response from a Rescue Row member within 2-4 business days. *You must live within an hour of the DFW Metroplex because we do trial adoptions and require a homecheck *Our adoption fees are as follows paid by cash, a check made out to Rescue Row, Venmo: @Rescue-Row or at Zelle: info@rescuerowinc.org Dogs 12 weeks-6 months old: $300 adoption fee Dogs 7 months and older: $275 adoption fee Rescue Row is a 501(c)3 (non-profit) all volunteer dog rescue organization serving the DFW Metroplex. We are dedicated to rescuing dogs in shelters, dogs in abusive or neglectful situations, and dogs surrendered by their owners because of difficult circumstances. We place dogs in loving, responsible, committed permanent homes, following a comprehensive adoption process, which includes taking considerable care in finding good matches and educating prospective adopters about the responsibilities and costs of bringing a dog into their homes and lives. Dogs in our care are spayed or neutered, microchipped, receive all appropriate veterinary care and treatment, and placed in nurturing foster homes while they await placement in their permanent homes. We assist dogs in distress without regard to age, breed or ease of placement. Dogs in the greatest need take priority. Finally, we strive to work with shelters and other rescue and humane organizations to develop a network of supporters and volunteers in order to create a better world for homeless dogs. ##1482209##

Story
Duke is 3 years old, weighs 71 lbs, and according to Wisdom Panel, he’s 43% American Staffordshire Terrier, 38% American Pit Bull Terrier, 7% American Bulldog, and a dash of Australian Cattle Dog (4%), German Shepherd (3%), American Eskimo (2%), Dalmatian (2%), and American Akita (1%). Duke gets along with all dogs and feline friends, however, he does enjoy playing hard. Duke is playful, toy-loving, and would thrive in a home with a canine companion his size or with an active family who can keep him physically and mentally engaged. Due to his strength (we’re currently working on leash manners!), we recommend a home with children over the age of 10. If you’d like to apply for this handsome and happy boy, please visit www.rescuerowinc.org *Please check your junk email folder if you do not receive a response from a Rescue Row member within 2-4 buiness days. *You must live within an hour of the DFW Metroplex because we do trial adoptions and require a homecheck *Our adoption fees are as follows (paid by cash, Zelle, Venmo or check made out to Rescue Row): Dogs 12 weeks-6 months old: $300 adoption fee Dogs 7 months and older: $275 adoption fee Rescue Row is a 501(c)3 (non-profit) all volunteer dog rescue organization serving the DFW Metroplex.
