Beautiful Bella Bear BELLA BEAR is the sweetest girl! She's extremely smart and she knows how to pick up on cues easily. She it’s so cute and cuddly sometimes she looks like a little bear cub, a perfect snuggle sister for humans or for a male companion dog.     Bella knows several commands, including :  sit, stay, wait, leave it, drop it, go potty, and come here (sometimes, she may give you a paw if you hold your hand out) but she can still be trained because she loves treats!    Bella loves toys that she can destroy, a chew toy from time to time but what she enjoys most of all is a game of fetch! She will not play outside by herself in a backyard -- you MUST come play with her. She does know the difference between her own toys that she can play with and your belongings.   Bella loves walking/jogging on leash alongside her people; she loves being outside for any reason! She loves belly rubs, and in return, loves to give kisses of affection. She loves barking when people walk by the home or the fence - she will always let you know someone is nearby.    Bella isn't territorial for her own space but she will make any place in the house (especially the living room or your bed) her comfort spot unless you train her not to .   Bella enjoys being around dogs that want to play.  She would be really happy to have a companion dog, a large male who’s yelling and fun like her to play with.   Bella is housetrained and she will bark in the middle of the night if she needs to be let outside.   Bella is a great little dog. She’s the perfect size and the perfect energy level to be a companion to people or a family or to a male dog companion.   To apply to adopt sweet BELLA BEAR, please complete the application on our website below then text:   Sara: 214-549-9905 & Kevin: 469-623-3999   So one of us can check your application!   Thank you!   www.dashdog.org General Info - PLEASE READ! *Our $450 adoption fee is based on the cost of rescuing, transporting and vetting each dog; we do not try to compete on prices with municipal shelters whose funds are paid by the city.

Sugar was abandoned in Graham several weeks ago. After spending time in a foster home in Graham she’s now settling in here in Dallas—and she’s already come such a long way! Sugar is still learning about the world. She’s very shy at first and will bark when meeting new people, but there’s ZERO AGGRESSION; she barks because of new circumstances and because she’s just learning to socialize with people, but the more people she’s meeting the better she’s getting! Sugar becomes incredibly loyal and attached, happily following her person from room to room just to see what you’re doing. She’s curious, gentle, and quietly observant—almost cat-like in the way she explores, finds cozy hiding spots, and then pops back out when you call her name. Sugar has adapted remarkably fast to indoor living!  Sugar is very quiet overall and rarely barks except when meeting someone new. I fully expect this to pass when she becomes settled in her new home . Sugar enjoys the company of other dogs and would thrive with a calm, friendly companion—especially a male dog—who can help continue building her confidence. Sugar has a lower energy level than a typical Aussie (at least for now). She recently had her first little “zoomie” moment—lasting about a minute—before returning to her favorite cozy spot like nothing happened. It was as if she surprised herself. What Sugar Needs Sugar is not a “project dog,” but she does need a patient, understanding home that will give her time to fully decompress and adjust. • A calm home environment • No small children (for now) • Patient adopters who will help and encourage her as she transitions “from country dog to city dog” • No pressure for busy outings, dog parks, or lots of visitors right away. Those days will come, but for now the comfort and security of being home with people she knows is what’s best for her transition time. Some of these transitions include understanding, traffic, noise, vacuuming, garbage disposal etc. She’s been in my home for a couple of weeks and she’s used to all of those sounds. - she even stays close to me when I’m doing chores because she’s so inquisitive. A Little More About Sugar However, Sugar is NOT prey-driven; she doesn’t chase squirrels or birds, so she should do well with dog-savvy cats. Interested in Sugar? If you feel like your home could be the right fit for this gentle, sensitive girl, please complete an adoption application from our website below. Then text Sara at 214-549-9905 so I can review your application and get back to you! www. dashdog.org General Info - PLEASE READ! *Our $450 adoption fee is based on the cost of rescuing, transporting and vetting each dog; we do not try to compete on prices with municipal shelters whose funds are paid by the city.

Enzo already knows several commands including sit, lie down, and shake. He’s highly food-motivated and eager to learn, which makes training both fun and rewarding. In fact, he’s so clever that he’s even figured out how to open doors with pull-down handles! This sweet boy is very devoted to his people and loves being part of the family. If someone leaves the room, Enzo will often wait patiently by the door or try to follow them. When his people are in different places, he may happily trot back and forth between them to make sure everyone is still together. Enzo’s favorite moments are when the whole family is in the same place. Like all young Aussies Enzo is still a fun, active, playful dog.He loves carrying things around in his mouth—blankets, sleeves, or anything he can grab—and gets especially excited about toys and chew items. Plastic bottles are one of his favorite things to chomp on, and he enjoys interactive playtime that keeps him busy and engaged. Enzo is also quite the foodie! While he enjoys healthy treats like carrots, apples, and even a little yogurt, his absolute favorite reward is cheese. Enzo would do best in a mature home with older children or adults. An active home where he can play, learn, and stay mentally stimulated would be ideal for him. With his intelligence, loyalty, and playful spirit, Enzo is sure to be a wonderful companion a person or couple you have experience with Australian shepherds or other herding breeds. We would REALLY LOVE Enzo to go to a home that had another dog for him to play with. Enzo would get along fine with either a male or a female, but one who is bigger than him, but also has moderate to high activity level and is interested in a playmate and canine companion.

Meet sweet Luna! She is a 10-year-old, 42 lb., Australian Shepherd mix. She is sweet, shy, and smart. We adopted her as a puppy from a rescue out-of-state, and she's been a great family dog. Unfortunately, our son's allergies & eczema have become unmanageable, and we want everyone to have a good quality of life. Luna is a relaxed dog, and prefers her space. She likes to be brushed, and will tell you when she wants cuddles or playtime! She can be picky about certain foods, but loves chicken when offered! She currently lives with 1 other dog, and 2 babies/small children. She is particular about canine friends, and we are unsure how she would do in a home with cats. Our toddler seems to stress her out, so we'd want to make a match with kids thoughtfully (she would likely do better with older children who better understand boundaries). Luna received obedience training as a puppy, and is house trained. Her leash skills and sharing are works-in-progress. She is very smart, so she has good potential for training, and is very sweet. Luna deserves a loving home where everyone can have a good life! Is that yours? Apply today to adopt Luna! This pet is participating in the Dallas Pets Alive rehoming program.

Story
Meet Jasper! A soulful three-and-a-half-year-old Border Collie/Rottweiler mix currently in Colorado Springs, CO, whose calm, loving heart is wrapped in a stunning 70-pound merle coat. With the gentle spirit of a wise old friend and the quiet loyalty of a true companion, Jasper is the kind of dog who will melt into your side on a cozy evening and follow you room to room just to be close. Jasper thrives in peaceful surroundings and forms deep, meaningful bonds with his people. He does well around children and enjoys their company, but he would do best with calm or older kids who understand boundaries and know how to treat him gently. Loud or high-energy play can make him uneasy, so a respectful home environment will help him feel safe and content. He’s a mellow guy who doesn’t need much to be happy: a soft spot to relax, the comforting presence of his caregiver, and maybe a treat puzzle or two to keep his brain engaged. Food-motivated and clever, Jasper knows a delightful list of commands like sit, stay, paw, spin, and even “middle”, a trick that’s as cute as it sounds! He’s fully house-trained, crate-trained, and perfectly content when left alone, making him a great match for someone who works from home or has a flexible schedule. While Jasper doesn’t require intense exercise, he does enjoy slow, sniffy walks where he can take in the world at his own pace. His favorite pastime? Being in the same room as you, soaking up your presence like sunshine! After being involved in two traumatic incidents with unfamiliar dogs, one when he was a puppy and another more recently, Jasper has developed a strong reactivity to dogs he doesn't know. He may bark or lunge when he sees them, especially near fences or in close proximity, and he continues to work through that with training and patient support. That said, he’s done well with familiar dogs in controlled settings, showing that he can feel safe with the right structure and trust. He’s happiest in a home with a fenced-in yard and a caregiver who values companionship, consistency, and quiet. Loud noises can startle him, but with reassurance, he settles easily. Jasper isn’t just a dog, he’s a constant companion, a quiet presence, and a gentle soul waiting for someone to see the beauty in his sensitive heart. If you’re seeking a loyal, low-key friend who will return your care with quiet affection and soulful eyes, Jasper may just be the one waiting to share your next chapter!

Story
Meet Inti! A radiant three-and-a-half-year-old Border Collie currently in Salida, CO, whose spirit is as expansive as the mountain trails she adores. Wrapped in a striking black and white coat and weighing about 35 pounds, this thoughtful and athletic girl brings together heart, intelligence, and a deep love for her people in a truly special way! Inti is the kind of companion who will eagerly race beside you on a mountain bike, bound joyfully across hiking trails, or splash happily during a swim, then curl up close for a cozy evening of affection. Fetch and frisbee are her absolute favorites, and her enthusiasm is contagious! She also knows an impressive list of commands like sit, shake, spin, and even weaving through your legs, showing off her clever and eager-to-learn nature. What truly sets Inti apart is how deeply she connects with her people, often leaning in for long cuddle sessions and watching your every move with bright, attentive eyes, always ready to join in whatever you are doing. Beneath her adventurous side, she is incredibly affectionate and tuned in to her trusted humans. She thrives with consistency, daily activity, and meaningful connection. When her world feels steady and secure, her loving personality shines. She is compatible with other dogs and even enjoys the company of cats, making her a wonderful companion in the right setting. Inti would flourish in a caring environment with an active, grounded guardian or a small, close-knit household. She can feel unsure around unfamiliar people and, in those moments, may nip when she is feeling protective or uncomfortable. She has nipped in the past, so she benefits from thoughtful introductions, positive reinforcement training, and a lifestyle with fewer unexpected visitors. Inti would be most suitable for a calm home without young children, where she can feel safe and understood. With guidance, patience, and understanding, she continues to grow into her best self. Healthy, spayed, house-trained, and up to date on vaccinations, Inti is ready for her next chapter filled with adventure, trust, and love. She will happily nap when left alone and eagerly greet you when it is time to play again. If you are someone who finds joy in the outdoors and values a deeply connected bond, Inti is ready to share every step, trail, and quiet moment with you! Could Inti be the loyal adventure partner you have been searching for? To learn more or begin the adoption journey, please reach out at adopt@joyfulpets.com.
