Story
This handsome boy is Reno, an Australian Kelpie mix that was brought in as a stray to the Mesquite Animal Shelter on 1/12. He weighs 36 pounds and is about 2 years old. Reno appears to have been nicely cared for. He knows the sit and paw commands (in fact he will give you both left and right paws). He is very sociable, friendly, affectionate, wants to climb into your lap and will give kisses. He is a charming, gentle, sweet, well-behaved boy who would doubtless make someone a wonderful companion. He does walk well on a leash. He played with several toys and balls in our meet and greet room. Reno is also quite the curious boy. In the yard, he had his nose to the ground and covered pretty much the entire area. He loves treats and takes them quite politely. He sincerely hopes that his stay at the shelter will be a short one and that a new person or family with step forward and adopt or foster and stay committed to him. Reno is a delightfully sweet, loveable and charming boy. He deserves to live as an inside dog spending time with his loving family.

Australian Kelpie

Story
Bossy is a fun, energetic young pup who is very much still in her puppy phase but she is SO intelligent. She’s playful, active, and full of curiosity, always ready to explore the world around her. Bossy is very intelligent and already knows the command “go to home,” heading right to her crate when asked a great start for continued training. She has lived with both kids and adults and is comfortable being crated. Bossy would benefit from continued potty training and basic puppy manners, but she’s eager to learn and would do well with someone ready to guide a smart, active pup. If you’re looking for a bright, energetic puppy to grow with, Bossy might be the perfect match! Call the shelter at 972-744-4480 or email AskRichardsonAnimalServices@cor.gov to learn more.February 7, 2026, 6:47 pm

He’d love a home that can keep up with his fun-loving spirit and give him the structure he needs to shine. He’s super affectionate, loyal, and always excited to be part of the action.

Story
Meet Littlefoot! This little tripod is one of the sweetest pups you’ll ever meet. She was found as a stray along with her puppies in South Texas a few months ago. Since rescuing her, we have gotten her fully vetted which included amputating her front limb, as she was born with a deformity that was causing her some pain. She’s a little over a year old, good with dogs, but prefers a mellow companion. She’s extremely sweet with people and would like to be a cuddle partner for hours on end. She’s also potty trained and crate trained. She has not been cat tested so unfortunately, we do not know how she would do with kitties. Because Littlefoot was a "street dog" the first year of her life, new things can be scary at first. So we will require a patient leader that can teach her that the world is not a scary place. Our trainer will be happy to continue to work with her on confidence building once she enters into your home, as all of our pups come with 3 free at home sessions with one of our trainers. If this little bundle of energy and love, sounds like the perfect match for you, please visit the link and fill out an adoption application so that we can schedule a phone call to chat about her . Please note we do not ship dogs out of state. If you’re currently not in the Dallas Fort Worth area, you will have to come to Dallas to meet her.

Howdy, y'all! My name is Cowboy, and I'm a handsome 3-year-old neutered male Red Heeler mix weighing 42lbs. I was surrendered to the Rockwall Adoption Center because my previous home had too many animals, but I'm ready to ride off into the sunset with a family of my very own! I'm a friendly, well-mannered boy who gets along great with other dogs and children. I'm both house and crate trained, and I love spending time with my people&#194&#151whether that's playing in the yard, going for walks, or relaxing after a long day. If you think that could be you, I'd love to meet you soon! My adoption fee is $125. I am neutered, microchipped, current on my annual core boosters, and heartworm negative. Apply today to adopt me: https://rockwalladoptions.com/adoptfoster/adoption-application/. Once your application is approved, RAC staff will contact you to schedule a meet and greet with my foster family!

Story
Meet Rome! Hi there! My name is Rome, and I'm an approximately 2-year-old male Blue Heeler mix with a big heart and a love for people. I was surrendered when my previous family was no longer able to care for me, but I'm ready to start my next chapter with a family who appreciates affection over fetch. I'm a social, happy boy who isn't really into toys&#194&#151I'd much rather soak up attention, enjoy good company, and relax in a comfy bed or pile of blankets. I keep my kennel clean and appear to be potty trained, which means I'm already off to a great start in a home environment. I haven't been tested with other dogs yet, so a meet-and-greet is essential if you have pets at home to make sure everyone is comfortable. My adoption fee is $125, and I am neutered, microchipped, current on my rabies vaccination and DHPP booster, and heartworm negative. If you're looking for a friendly companion who runs on love and cozy naps, I might just be your guy. Apply to adopt me at https://rockwalladoptions.com/adoptfoster/adoption-application/ Rome is ready to trade shelter life for soft blankets and a family of his own.  All animals, unless otherwise noted in their description, are at 1825 Airport Rd. in Rockwall, TX.
