Story
Meet Max 🐾 Max is a handsome 5-year-old Australian Shepherd/Kelpie mix with a heart as big as his smile. We originally adopted Max out as a puppy, and for the first four years of his life he served as an emotional support companion for a teenager. When his family lost their home due to landlord issues, they were heartbreakingly forced to surrender him. His next owner loved him for a year and invested in both intermediate and advanced training classes, making Max a well-mannered, well-rounded companion. House & Crate trained--Knows basic commands---Completed intermediate and advanced training classes---Great with other dogs, including the many Chihuahuas in his foster home Max weighs about 60 pounds and still has plenty of great years ahead of him. He loves being with his people and wherever the other dogs are, that's where you'll find Max too. Most nights he sleeps on a pillow beside his foster mom's bed, although every now and then he sneaks into the bed for extra cuddles. Max is also the perfect road-trip buddy. He absolutely loves riding shotgun and has become his foster moms favorite driving companion. Whether its a quick trip to the store or a longer adventure, Max is happiest when he's along for the ride. his absolute favorite things in life? Swimming and playing fetch! If you have a pool, Max will think he has hit the jackpot. Water is his happy place, and he never turns down a game of fetch. Thanks to a generous sponsor, Max's adoption fee has been reduced to just $50. If you are looking for a loyal, trained, affectionate companion who is ready to become part of your family, Max may be the perfect match. To apply, please visit: ChloesPetRescue.org/application

Story
Meet Annie! She is a 3yr old spayed female American Pitbull mix that weighs 40lbs. She came into the Mesquite Animal Shelter on as a stray 8/26/2025. She was adopted for one day but returned due to her very active playful manner. Yes, its true she is a spitfire! She loves to chase toys, doing zoomies in the play yard, and can be a bit mouthy with excitement. Once she runs out her energy she will sit right next you on the bench to be petted and will shower you with kisses. She does love treats but does not always take them gently so she will need additional training. She would do best with a person with an active lifestyle that can dedicate time to Annie to help her be the best pup she can be. She always has a big smile on her face and her tail wags non-stop. You can tell she wants to be your one and only pup in the home. With her energy level it maybe best. Please discuss with the shelter staff if you have another dog in the home so a dog test can be arranged. This super friendly lovebug can’t wait to find her own loving home. Can you please provide her with this?

Riley is eight months old and 25 pounds. She is exceptionally playful and enjoys the company of children. She has a fondness for walks, frozen carrots, chasing bubbles, and swimming. While she loves playing in water, she is not particularly fond of baths which is hilarious. Riley is also affectionate and loves to cuddle. She will happily accompany you to every room! Furthermore, she will sit beside you while you are doing homework or even watch television with you. Playing fetch is also one of her favorite activities! * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * If you have a specific question about Riley III, then please email newdigs@dallaspetsalive.org.

Story
River is a 5 year old Red merle Aussie. We got River when he was 10 weeks old from a local breeder. He has been raised with our young children and other dogs. River has spent 6 weeks in a training program. He is well behaved on leash, as soon as he is on leash he treats it as his job to do and will give you his full attention. However, River is dog aggressive with my other dog therefor I would not recommend him to anyone who has dogs. I don't recommend children either. Additionally, He has completed a 2 week program for aggression with my other dog whom the problems started with and it was unsuccessful. We have done everything we can at this point and its become unfair and unsafe to both our dogs. This is why we are looking to rehome River. Ideally the best option for River is an older couple who just wants one dog for protection and companionship or a young adult looking for a best friend. River is loyal, trained, and has plenty of energy for adventures.

Story
*UPDATE* We have moved to Fort Worth, but will still gladly drive Daisy wherever she can find a nice home. We received Daisy when she was 10 weeks old. She is 2 years old (born around January of 2024). Daisy is a very snuggly cuddly lap dog. She is not super adventerous, but does enjoy going on walks and laying out in the sun and in the grass. Her favorite things to do are laying on her bed or in your lap with lots of love and pets. She is very smart and listens well to commands like sitting, staying, or coming when called. She is very social and loves meeting new humans and dogs alike. She loves kids and babies, but does get so excited that she jumps up to kiss and greet everyone she meets, but there is not a mean bone in her body. She is a real sweetheart and would be perfect in a home that will show her lots of love and affection.

Story
Meet Timber! Timber is an approximately 10 month old Border Collie Cattle Dog mix weighing around 20 pounds who is looking for an active family to call her own. Affectionate and people oriented, Timber loves toys, enjoys being a lap dog, knows "sit," and appears to be house trained, keeping her kennel and bedding clean. As a young dog, Timber will thrive with daily exercise, mental enrichment, and continued training. She can be vocal, so she may not be the best fit for apartment living. Because of her adventurous nature, a secure yard and supervised outdoor time are recommended. Timber has been around other dogs and does well, but she is much more interested in her people than playing with other dogs. A meet and greet is encouraged for homes with resident dogs. Her adoption fee is $125 and includes her spay, microchip, rabies vaccination, heartworm test, and current basic vaccinations. Her adopter must be able to bring her back for her scheduled spay surgery on Wednesday, July 22, 2026. If you're looking for a smart, loyal companion who wants to be by your side, Timber may be the perfect match. Apply to adopt Timber today: 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. IMPORTANT NOTICE: All shelter animals are required by Texas state law to be spayed/neutered. RAC completes this procedure at the age of 12 weeks. If you are adopting a pet under the age of 12 weeks or an animal that has not yet been spayed or neutered, you will be required to return the pet to our facility on the agreed upon date set at the time of adoption.
