Story
Pringle has show dog good looks with a personality to match! She is a 2-year-old 52 pound Australian Shepherd that was brought in to the Mesquite Animal Shelter as a stray on 4/17. I would say that she’s actually glamorous! When I first met her, she held back but her desire for human interaction won out. Soon her tail was wagging nonstop. She occasionally barks for some extra attention. She knows the sit and shake commands. She’s well trained and very obedient. She’s friendly, sociable, alert, active and sweet. She will rub her body up against you for extra closeness. She walks OK on a leash. She did her business when she got out into the yard. She’s a total love bug!! She likes to explore so having some outside time would be great, but she also likes to snuggle so would want to spend family time curled up at your feet in her own bed.

Story
Meet Cody One year old. Twenty five pounds. One resilient little heart wrapped in a fluffy Mini Australian Shepherd mix body.   Cody’s story did not start the way it should have. After being adopted for free from Dallas Animal Services, he was quickly forgotten instead of cherished. He was later found severely underweight and covered in fleas, clearly neglected and left to fend for himself. And yet… somehow… this sweet boy still loves with his whole heart. That tells you everything you need to know about him.   Today, Cody is thriving. He is crate trained, great on a leash, and promptly handles his business when taken outside like the polite gentleman he is. He’s doing wonderfully with potty training and truly wants to please. He would do just fine in an apartment as long as he gets plenty of walks and some fun dog park playtime. He loves other dogs, enjoys children, and fits beautifully into an active, loving home.   At just 25 pounds, he’s the perfect “take me everywhere” size. He’s affectionate without being overwhelming, playful without being chaotic, and loyal in that quiet, steady way that makes you feel chosen.   Cody has already experienced the worst of what humans can offer. Now he deserves the very best. A family who feeds him well, keeps him healthy, takes him on adventures, and never makes him question whether he belongs.   If you’re ready to give Cody the life he should have had all along, please apply below:   Adoption Application: https://petstablished.com/adoption_form/13108/generic   Located in North Texas but transport available to approved adopters out of state. Transport fee applies. ##2665361##

Story
Sassy is a well-behaved girl. Words starting with “S” that fit her perfectly include special, super, sweet, spunky, spirited, sincere, smart, and sensitive to your feelings. She’s a beautiful 1-year-old, 48-pound black and white spayed female Border Collie/Canaan Dog mix who arrived at the Mesquite Animal Shelter on 4/3. Her glossy coat and stand-up ears make her stand out, and she may even be housetrained. We became instant best friends! She’s polite, takes treats gently, and walks nicely on a leash. She came right over when I called her. Plus, she’s already spayed. I fell in love with her, and I think you will too.

Story
Meet Sebastian! He is a 2 yr old male mixed breed that weighs 69lbs. He is a very handsome boy and when using dog scanner it stated he may have a mix of Border Collie, Besenji, and Bull Terrier. He came into the Mesquite Animal Shelter on 10/27 as a stray. He has a majestic and regal look about him, but also a goofy side. With one ear up, long body and glossy coat he is a standout. He does need some manners training as he will jump on you, but with a sharp retort he was responsive. He also has his silly goofy side when it comes to toys. He would need to have strong rubber ones to play with. He does want to please and will sit for treats and take them gently. He didn’t show interest in other dogs, yet we do ask if there is another dog in the home to please ask the shelter for a dog test. He is rambunctious, enthusiastic, playful, fun loving, joyful, and friendly. He has a semi-strong pull on a leash. He will need a secured yard for his playtime but wants to spend time in the house, enjoying his new loving family.

Story
Emma is a spry 12-year-old senior who defies her age. She’s unaware of her gray muzzle, only knowing she has plenty of love to give her future forever family. This 45-pound Border Collie mix was surrendered to the Mesquite Animal Shelter on 3/19 after her owner passed away. A vet check confirmed she’s in good health for her age. Her eyes are cloudy, possibly from cataracts or glaucoma, but she gets around just fine. According to her surrender form, she was both an indoor and outdoor dog, lived with other dogs, and got along well with them. She enjoys running and playing catch, though she can be food aggressive, so if you have another dog, feeding separately might be best. In her kennel, she was alert and curious, and in the yard, she explored thoroughly. When I sat on the bench, she came over, stood beside me, and gave gentle kisses. She responds to her name, behaves politely without jumping, and though she doesn’t seem to know “sit,” she walks nicely on a leash. Emma is ready for new adventures and precious moments, and at her age, she deserves the comfort of a climate-controlled home, soft blankets, and her own cozy bed.
