Meet Zuko, your new best friend with a playful personality and floppy ears to match! Zuko is a male 2.5 year old boxer/cattle dog mix that weighs about 40 lbs. He LOVES people and is so smart and eager to please. His favorite games are tug (with a rope or any toy he can manage) and he loves to go on walks and play outside. He loves his stuffies, peanut butter kongs, and carrots. Zuko is crate, potty, and leash trained, microchipped, and up-to-date on all vaccines. He's good with other dogs and would love a playful friend to wrestle with, but is perfectly content getting attention from human friends only. He is not good with cats. He is curious about but mostly avoids babies/toddlers, but he does well with older children. He would do well with space to run and daily exercise. Zuko is a vocal dog that 'talks' (softly growls) for attention, but he has never been aggressive. He is currently on heartworm preventatives and is heartworm negative. He broke a toe a year ago and sometimes still favors that foot, but doesn't let it slow him down too much. Zuko will be your best bud and can't wait to shower you with love and attention. All he expects is the same treatment back!

Story
Lillie Mae may be the perfect dog to step into your waiting household. At nearly two years old, she has learned all her basic skills from sleeping in her crate to taking care of business. Listening and knowing when to â&#194&#128&#194&#156leave itâ&#194&#128&#194&#157 and how to shake are part of her best qualities. Part of a full household, Lilly Mae might enjoy the attention of a small household but has spent time with other pups in her litter. Once she spends time with her new family, Lilly Mae's energy level will settle into her new playtime routine. To get started, chewing on a bone will always be a favorite pastime. She still needs a few final checks with her vet before moving to her forever home. Lillie Mae will definitely enjoy getting quality cuddle time and having a warm bed, a loving family, and a happy home of her own. All Dallas Pets Alive adoptable pets are spayed or neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines upon adoption.

Met Scooter! My husband and I are elementary school teachers and this sweet boy (now affectionately called Scooter) had been hanging around the school playground since the beginning of the year. When Animal Control came and said he would be euthanized that night, we couldnâ&#194&#128&#194&#153t let that happen. We scooped him up and brought him to our in laws home in Frisco. He is good with other dogs, cats, and kids! Scooter has been nothing short of wonderful. Heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s gentle, loving, and great with kids. Heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s fully potty trained, walks beautifully on a leash, and has quickly adjusted to being indoors. Heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s vaccinated, neutered and has the sweetest, most even temperament, he especially loves rolling over for belly rubs and being close to people.

Looking for a Forever Home – Blue Heeler (Dallas, TX Area) Meet Knoxx, a stunning Blue Heeler who wandered into a rural main street back in December.

Best suited for a home with children 10+. Knoxx will thrive with a confident leader who understands her breed or has experience with working dogs. She is loyal, intelligent, and affectionate — the perfect partner for someone who can give her structure and love.

Story
Let's go Eevee! This fun, energetic girl will Pokémon-go with you on any adventure. Eevee is a rambunctious bundle of energy that would fit in great with a family that gets outdoors and has space for her to run around at home. She is a bit of an attention hog, so she will do best in a single-dog home, but she has lived with both a cat and a dog and may be able to settle in with the right animal friends with enough time and training. Eevee needs animal companions that are respectful of her space when food is out, or to be fed separately. Owners and animal friends would need to be able to handle her high energy play-drive, so similar sized dog friends may be best. Eevee has lived with a toddler for two years, but may be better with older children after a slow introduction. Eevee is smart and very trainable. Earlier in her puppyhood, Eevee did a 3 week board and train and has some basic obedience training that, while rusty, could easily be honed further. She's showed aptitude for agility-style courses, and can be convinced to do most anything with the right treats. Eevee's prior trainer has stated that he would give any new owner two free training sessions to support Eevee's transition into a new home. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * If you have a specific question about Eevee, then please email newdigs@dallaspetsalive.org.

Story
Meet Archie! Archie is listed as an Australian Shepherd, but he has the personality of a Husky. He weighs about 67 pounds and was born on January 8, 2022. Archie is a sweet, gentle dog with a calm energy level. He currently lives in a low-activity household, which may have influenced his laid-back nature, though with a more active lifestyle, he may become more energetic. He doesnâ&#194&#128&#194&#153t seem to know how to play in the traditional sense, but every so often, heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153ll pull all his stuffed toys (â&#194&#128&#194&#156his babiesâ&#194&#128&#194&#157) from the basket and scatter them around the room. His favorite place to nap is in a leather chair, where he spends much of his day. He takes a daily vitamin and enjoys having an egg with his breakfast. It's believed that heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s been passed around a bitâ&#194&#128&#194&#148his last owner had him for only four months. Heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s strikingly beautiful and incredibly sweet. However, due to his size, heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s become difficult for his current owner to manage. Archie appears to do well with other dogs, though he hasn't been to dog parks. He has a clear preference for menâ&#194&#128&#194&#148he often chooses the company of a male stranger over familiar faces. He enjoys daily walks and uses a doggie door without issue. While he isnâ&#194&#128&#194&#153t overly cuddly, he has warmed up and will occasionally jump into a lap to show affection. In general, he can seem a bit indifferent to familiar people. He previously spent time with another dog for a couple of weeks; they played well initially, but as things got rougher, they had to be separated for safety. He did enjoy the companionship, and with proper supervision or training, he may benefit from having a playmate. One of Archieâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s favorite pastimes is â&#194&#128&#194&#156huntingâ&#194&#128&#194&#157 squirrels in the backyard. Though heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s never caught one, heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153ll crouch and stalk them with serious focusâ&#194&#128&#194&#148itâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s quite entertaining to watch. He once cornered a cat and ended up with a scratch on his nose, but that hasnâ&#194&#128&#194&#153t stopped him from continuing to chase after them. He is microchipped with a lifetime membership through 24PetWatch, and currently wears a GPS tracker on his collar, which helps provide peace of mind in case he were to get outâ&#194&#128&#194&#148especially since heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s still getting familiar with the neighborhood. Archie is fully house-trained and has never had an accident indoors. He was crate trained but no longer uses a crate. He gets one treat per dayâ&#194&#128&#194&#148a dental chew. This rehoming decision comes with a heavy heart. Archieâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s current owner is older, increasingly unsteady on their feet, and no longer able to care for a large dog. With their adult son recently relocated for work, support at home is limited. Archie would thrive in a home with someone experienced with larger breeds or Husky-like temperaments, and who can give him the time, space, and affection he deserves.
