Story
Oh my gosh, are you here to read more about little ol’ me? Oh, where do I start! Well, I’m just a happy doggo trying to live my best life and match up with a new family. DAS is helping me search, isn’t that cool? We’re still getting to know each other, but I think we’re going to find me some great friends. I’ve let them know that I enjoy long walks on warm evenings, trying all kinds of new snacks, and chewing on doggie toys. Who doesn’t love those things? Speaking of snacks, I’ve heard that Dallas is an exciting doggie-friendly place for food enthusiasts! I’d love to check out a few patios some day with my new family. Does that sound like something you’d enjoy, too? I sure hope so… maybe you could click that “Adopt Me” button and we’ll get to know each other better!

Story
My name is Richard and my friends at the shelter tell me I am a very good boy. I can be a little shy at first, but if you give me a little bit of time I really come out of my shell. I walk very nicely on leash and the people here think I might be potty trained because I always try really hard to keep my room clean. I did come in as a stray, so my past is a mystery, but I'm excited to see what my future holds. Could it be with you?Foster Testimonial: "He is fantastic on a leash and might be an excellent running dog. At home, he coexisted peacefully with my cat. They could both be in the same room each doing their own thing. He did not bark but liked to know where the human was at all times and he followed me the whole time. I believe he will be an amazing bed or couch dog. I gave him permission to sit with me and he would join on his terms. He loved being on the bed by himself! He eats his medicine well, does not rush to eat, and loves chicken! While he takes time to warm up to people, he is ready to love!"Dogs: I've done well with other dogs including some small ones! I do prefer my play pretty low-contact and I generally am happy to just hang out with other dogs. If that sounds like your dog, I'm sure we will get along great. You are always welcome to bring your dog(s) to meet me before we head home.Cats: Sure! My foster home had a cat and I think they are pretty cool! Kids: Well, like I said I can be a little shy at first and since I came as a stray my friends don't know if I've ever been around kids. I think I would do well with them, but I'd like to meet kids under 5 before we go home.Come meet me today at 2400 Lone Star Drive!

Story
Harper is a stunning Australian Shepherd with a striking marbled, brindle coat. Her heart as big as the outback. She loves to meet people and can be a bit overzealous when greeting strangers. Despite her enthusiasm, she is quick to learn and respect boundaries. She is a true sweetheart and is very gentle with children. Very affectionate, social and playful. Her breed is very active: being a working breed, she does have a tendency to herd smaller animals and other dogs when she first meets them. She loves to run, play fetch, and tug-of-war. This breed needs a lot of exercise! As she is getting older, she has gotten lazier and thus, fatter. Would do wonderful in an active household with active kids and a large yard. Is leash reactive so "walking" is not easy if other dogs are present. Knows lots of tricks and loves to perform. Treat motivated! Needs to be brushed out weekly as Aussies shed quite a bit. Bath recommended 1x month. Very patient and tolerant with handling (grooming etc).

Story
This “Turtle” may not be slow, but his sweet nature is undeniable. With quick learning skills and an affectionate personality, he'll chase after your heart in no time. He is approximately 30 lb and 10 months old. He loves kids and other dogs and needs a friend his size or larger to play with. He loves going on walks and is catching on how to play fetch. Zero aggression and would be fabulous for a family that is active and with kids. He will need a good fence and backyard. Another bonus is he picked up doggy door quickly and appears housebroken if taken out on a schedule. He’s a rescue favorite and a must meet!!! To meet Turtle please fill out an application! Application available at https://www.pawsofloverescue.com/adoption-application. Adoption donation of $350 includes spay, microchip, deworming, dhpp vaccinations, rabies shot, bordetella nose spray and any other necessary procedures prior to adoption. Dallas/Ft.

Story
Ozzie is a wonderful dog who has lots of energy. He needs an active family and preferably another dog to match his vibes. He would do best without tiny humans as he would not know his own strength when it came to playing. He is an Australian Shepherd who are a working type dog, so please make sure you research the breed before adopting. If you are interested please fill out an interest to adopt form www.scdrm.com

Story
I inherited Caroline when my Father passed away last year. Unfortunately, I am allergic to dander and travel for work, so keeping her long-term is not the best option. Also, she deserves to have a more complete life - she is sweet, affectionate, and extremely docile. She would make a great family pet for a young family, and would get along well with existing pets and children of any age.
