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!

These pups are in Richardson, Texas too!

Story
Anna is the sweetest puppy. She has been growing up in a foster home waiting patiently for her family to come find her. While she is waiting she is working hard on her puppy manners to be able to show her family how smart she is. Anna is curious and has the cutest head tilt when something confuses her. In her foster home she has grown up around 2 small boys, and loves to play tug and ball with them. She loves to sit with them while they watch tv and is amazing at cleaning up their spills under the table. She LOVES toys! The more the better. Squeaky, crinkle, stuffed.. it's all awesome! She also loves tennis balls and will bring them back for you to throw again and again. Anna loves her foster-dog siblings and loves to play with them.   At night, she's a cuddle expert while you read or watch tv. She is super at sleeping  the whole night in her crate.  At bedtime she will jump right in her crate. Anna is patty trained and has been great going outside to do her duty.  With her active and curious nature, Anna is ready to bring joy and excitement to your home! Anna's wish list: A fenced yard, no apartments please. A confident playmate and/or a very attentive owner who can continue her training to help her be the best dog that she can be.

Story
Lily is a smart, active, and affectionate pup. She's kennel and house trained, and dog-friendly. She'd love to join your home and would be ecstatic with a backyard and another playful friend. Her favorite activities include playing ball, tug of war, and cuddling with her human. Lily is just a "teenager," and her spirited energy is what you would expect. We feel she would be fine with pre-teens or teenagers as they can handle her jumpiness and excitement as she is learning her manners. She's smart, food-motivated, and eager to please, so with consistent effort, this should take no time. She hasn't been tested around kittens, but with the right introduction, we suspect she can get comfortable with them. Lily enjoys car rides and due to her not too big size, she is a great companion for all type of plans and adventures. She also does great at the vet! (See pictures) ##1988397##
