Story
Meet Chip! He is an approximately 2 year old, male, Black German Shepherd mix that weighs 58lbs. He was found in Buffalo Creek on 10/21/2024 and never reclaimed. He can be a bit shy at first but he has had his heart broken before, so he will need some time to warm up to a new family! He walks well on a leash and knows a few basic commands. He does well with other dogs both large and small. Chip will need someone with time and patience to help him boost his confidence and become the best family companion he can be! Due to his heightened sensitivity for unexpected movement and loud noises, Chip is not currently suggested with children younger than 14 years old. Chip loves to be around his people and enjoys keeping busy! If you have another dog in the home, a meet and greet is encouraged to make sure they get along prior to adoption. Chip has been searching for his furr ever home for 144 days as of 03/15/2025 and is now considered a Diamond Dog! His adoption fee is $75. Chip is neutered, microchipped, current rabies vaccination, basic boosters, and heartworm negative.

Story
Hi! I'm Liberty. I am approximately 1 year old, German Shepherd mix that weighs approx. 69lbs. I was recently surrendered by my owner because they did not have time for me. I am so excited to start a new chapter in life! Hopefully I will find a family that has knowledge of my breed and the time to spend with me. I am a very loyal girl who really loves my people. I am a bouncy, silly, fun and loving girl! I can be energetic at times but after all I am only 1 year old which means I am like a 7-year-old in human years. My child like curiosity and wonder makes me an excellent learner. I soak up everything like a sponge. Consistent training will help me acclimate to my new environment once adopted and will enhance my good girl vibe. I am suggested with older kids who are respectful of larger dogs and know how to play with me appropriately. I have gotten along with other dogs but if you have another dog in the home, I will need to meet them prior to adoption to ensure that they will accept me in the home and my overall eagerness and energy prior to adoption. My adoption fee is $125. I am spayed, microchipped, up to date on my basic yearly boosters, and heartworm negative.

Story
Meet Chevy! Chevy is the most handsome 8 year old pup you will ever lay your eyes on! And he’s got the brains and personality to match! Which to be honest doesn’t always happen haha. He was surrendered by his family to the shelter with his brother. His brother was adopted but Chevy found himself left behind and set to be euthanized for space. When we saw he only had a few hours left we busted him out and I’m so glad we did. Chevy is going to make a family so incredibly happy one day. He is truly a unicorn dog. Going through our temperament evaluation there’s typically a few little things that come up…. Not with Chevy though. Every test we through his way he passed with flying colors. Truthfully it’s almost been a bit boring but he is certainly 100% good boy certified! -Good With Other Dogs. Has an “all out” play style. -Very Sweet and submissive with people. -House/Crate Trained -Leash/Obedience Work We Are Currently Working On. Definitely Had No Work Prior. -Demands belly rubs and he’s cute enough to where you will cave in and give them. -Lower drive GS -High Energy and social would be a great adventure buddy We do not ships dog out of state. All adopters must travel to Dallas to meet their potential animal in person before moving forward with an adoption trial run.

Hi there! My name is Nala! I am a 1 year old German Shepherd female that weighs around 50 Lbs. I was recently surrendered to the shelter due to my family no longer being able to care for me. So now I am available for adoption and hoping to find my furever family soon. I am a very sweet girl! I am social, love toys, and know a few basic commands. I still need a little leash work but I am a good girl and want to learn.

I am spayed, microchipped, current rabies vaccination, and my boosters are to date. I did test heartworm positive but thanks to Rockwall PAWS, I will be able to receive treatment at little to no cost to my adopter.

Hi there! My name is Brownie. I am a 3 year old female German Shepherd mix that weighs around 53 lbs. I was recently surrendered to the shelter as my family could no longer take care of me. I am hopeful to find a new family to love! I am an affectionate girl and am very gentle when I jump up for hugs. I love to cuddle and spend time with my humans. I do need a little time to warm up as I have been through some heartache and am learning to open up to people. I enjoy playing and am interested in most toys! Blankets are a must as I enjoy bundling up and hunkering down. It is unknown how I do with other dogs, so a meet and greet is suggested if you have another pet I the home prior to adoption. My adoption fee is $125. I am spayed, microchipped, current on my rabies vaccination, and my basic boosters are to date.

Story
I adopted her around 4-5 years ago from a family friend who got sick and couldn’t look after her anymore, she is about 6 yrs now as she was around 1 yr when I got her. Luna is a really calm dog who loves to get scratched and cuddle, hardly barks and loves to go for walks. I hate to do this but with my busy schedule a living situation I know she needs something else where she can run and play, also someone that will be there more than I can due to my work. I’d like to find a loving home that will look after her like I do where she can be happy and loved not having to be in a one bedroom apartment for most of the day and just get to go out when I get home from work.

Meet Bonnie!   Bonnie is a 1-year-old German Shepherd with a heart as big as her ears are small. This sweet girl was abandoned and has been through more than her fair share of hardship, including someone cruelly cutting her ears, leaving her with a unique and crooked cropped look. Despite her tough past, Bonnie has a gentle and loving spirit.   She is shy at first and takes a little time to come out of her shell, but once she trusts you, she is the most loyal and devoted companion you could ask for. Bonnie is dog-friendly, fully potty trained, and crate trained, making her an excellent addition to the right family.   Bonnie is looking for a home where she can feel safe and loved. If you’re patient and kind, she will reward you with endless love and a bond that can’t be broken. Could you be the person to give Bonnie the life she deserves?  February 12, 2025, 11:59 am

Hi! I'm Emmett! I'm an approximately 10 month old, male, Dutch Shepherd/Lab mix. I was found on 10/14/2024 off 276 and Jones in Rockwall County and never reclaimed.
