Story
Meet Robin! She is a 1 yr old female Australian Kelpie mix that weighs 37.6 lbs. She came into the Mesquite Animal Shelter as a stray on 11/12. When she first came in she was underweight at 33lbs, scared and untrusting. Can't say I blame her as people were not kind to her. Since being at the shelter, we promised her we would take care of her and show she can have trust and confidence again. She took our words to heart and is much happier. Robin loves to romp around the shelter yard chasing balls and climbing on the equipment. She walks well on a leash, takes treats gently, knows the sit and paw commands. She didn't show any interest in the other dogs, but we do always ask if there will be another dog in the home to please ask the shelter for a dog test. Robin is also a big lovebug! She enjoys sitting close, being petted and will climb in your lap and give plenty of kisses. She has a gentle and loving heart, and such a sparkle in her eyes. She now hopes that she can find her own loving family that won't let her down again. One that will shower her with hugs and kisses, and a secured backyard for exercise and chasing balls. Most importantly she wants to be included in family activities, going for walks, and living inside cuddling close on the couch and falling fast asleep next to her human companions. Please come meet this wonderful girl!

Story
Just in case you're wondering, the gray around June Bug's eyes happens to be her hair coloring and not something wrong with her eyes. It makes her unique! June Bug is an Australian kelpie/Japanese terrier mix. She is only five months old and weighs 22 pounds. She's got perky stand-up ears and a sweet face. She was brought into the Mesquite Animal Shelter on 3/20 by one of our officers. She's on the timid side and could benefit from some TLC in order to build up trust. She is not used to a leash and needed some coaxing, bribing with treats, and some carrying to get her out into the yard. On the way back to her kennel she did a little better. Once she got outside into the yard she relaxed and moved around more freely. However, she did keep her nose to the ground most the time so it was difficult to get pictures of her. The pictures here do not do her justice. She is sweet, calm, gentle, and very loving. She likes to be petted. She did her business as soon as she got out into the yard. She went nose to nose with other dogs in an attempt to make friends with them. She did not seem to know the sit command but was more than willing to take the offered treats. She took them gently. This young girl would do well with the laid-back family with loving children. She would love to snuggle up with her new family at their feet in her bed or on the couch.

Story
I rescued Kai from DAS. He was picked up by Dallas Animal Services because he was tied to a tree. Even two years later, he is still skittish. He’s good with other dogs in the home but he’s not good at seeing other dogs. He barks a lot. He needs someplace with a big yard and someone who can give him lots of time and energy. He’s the sweetest dog I’ve ever had. He loves to cuddle he loves pets is very loyal he’s just a great dog and I wish that I could keep him but it’s unfair to him. He is a total goofball. I am unable to keep him in the apartment that I’m in. I’ve never rehomed a pet before, but Kai deserves the best.

Story
This precious pooch is Ginger, listed as an Australian Cattle Dog picked up by one of our officers, along with three siblings on 2/19. Ginger weighs 18 pounds and is 5 months old. She is kenneled with one of her sisters. She has the most beautiful soulful brown eyes and the sweetest disposition and nature imaginable. She is a well-behaved girl, with a mellow personality. She loves treats and takes them gently. Ginger is an amiable girl, and very happily allowed me to pet and love on her. She walks fine on a leash, but when led past dogs that were barking at her she seemed intimidated. All of the siblings are so precious to interact with that they stole my heart! Ginger would make a terrific pet for some fortunate person or family. She will need daily playtime, exercise, and enrichment, as well as the teaching of some commands. She would love to live inside with her people and to be in important part of the family circle. As of 3/12/24 Ginger is staying in a foster home that has 2 small dogs, cats and chickens. She is doing well with respecting their space. If you would like to meet her please contact the shelter to arrange a meet n greet.

Story
This high-spirited and fun-loving fellow is Barkley, listed as an American Blue Heeler picked up by one of our officers on 3/15 as a stray. Barkley weighs 51 pounds and is about 2 years old. This boy has tons of personality. He is excitable, playful, and a life-of-the-party kind of guy. He does jump on you in his excitement so that will need to be addressed. He is lively and active with a fairly high energy level (but not hyperactive). He does walk OK on a leash, but pulls in his exuberance. He knows the sit command. He has a confident and outgoing personality, and there is not one bit of nervousness or shyness about him. Barkley loves treats and will happily sit for them. He enjoys playing with toys and balls. He let me pet him without any issue. Barkley would seem to best suit a person or family with an active lifestyle. Do you have room in your heart and home for this boy?
