Story
Preston at first was more interested in smelling and checking out the yard than interacting with me, but then I got out a treat and I definitely had his attention! Also, when I sat down, he immediately came to me. He does want to interact with you. You have to be patient to build a rapport with him. Preston is a two year-old 50 pound mostly Australian Kelpie/Lancshire Heeler mix. He’s tri-colored with hazel eyes that complement his coloring. He’s a very attractive boy. You’ll be the envy of your neighbors when you take Preston for a walk. He is curious and alert. His sense of smell is important to him. He’s active. He’s cautiously friendly and has a lot of love to offer. Some of this love is in the form of kisses. He did his business in the yard. He has a strong pull on the leash. He would like to get out for some playtime and then come in and chill with his new family.

Story
Meet Jodi! She is a 9 mo old female Australian Kelpie mix that weighs 20lbs. She came into the Mesquite Animal Shelter on 9/29 as a stray. Jodi is a spitfire! She is pure puppy energy. She enjoys doing zoomies in the shelter yard, playing with toys and will continue to jump on you. Being a puppy, she has sharp little nails too. She will need to have additional training to help with these behaviors and would be best to be in an adult home at this time. As she saw other dogs in another play yard, she had several conversations with them while wagging her tail. Having an active family to provide her daily activities, plenty of toys, and to play in a secured yard, then back inside to close to her family members is what this beautiful girl deserves. She walks ok on a leash and takes treats gently. If you can offer sweet Jodi that active lifestyle she needs, please come spend some time with her.

Story
Meet Ariel! Ariel is a beautiful 2-year-old Heeler mix weighing approximately 36 pounds who is looking for a special family to help her begin a much brighter chapter. Ariel was one of 14 animals surrendered to RAC on 10/3/26 after her previous home became overwhelmed with too many animals. Ariel is a shy but incredibly sweet girl who will need a patient, understanding family willing to give her the time she needs to feel safe, build confidence, and learn what it means to truly thrive in a home. She arrived at RAC with several significant wounds after being targeted by other adult dogs in her previous home. She is actively receiving treatment and continues to heal a little more each day. For now, Ariel is being given space from other dogs while she recovers. This does not necessarily mean she cannot live with another dog in the future, but we want to give her the opportunity to heal before asking too much of her. If you have another dog and are interested in adopting Ariel, a scheduled meet and greet will be required to help determine whether they may be a good match. Ariel's adoption fee is $125. She is spayed, microchipped, current on her annual boosters, and heartworm negative. Ariel has already been through more than any sweet girl should have to endure. Now she deserves the chance to discover the good stuff—safety, patience, kindness, and a family of her very own. Apply to adopt Ariel: https://rockwalladoptions.com/adoptfoster/adoption-application/  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.
