Story
We adopted Patty from the Flower Mound Animal Shelter on 8/07/24. She is 4 years old, super sweet, and a great family dog. The reason we have to give her up is that she won't stop chasing our 5 cats. She has a strong instinct to chase little furry animals. This is her ONLY issue! We took Patty to Petco and around the neighborhood, and she is very friendly with new people. She has a kiss for everyone! Patty has met several 8 and 9 year old kids and done very well with them, not jumping or knocking them around. She is accepting of new situations, and I would have no concern boarding her during a vacation. She has done well with our dog, and adapting to a new place. Patty is in great health, all shots current, spayed, microchipped, and she has white healthy teeth. She is housebroken, and there have been no incidents in that area, also no throwing up or upset stomach - even with the change from the shelter to our house. Please help us find a cat-free home for Patty.

Story
Wesley Butters is a super sweet 10-year-old Akita/Husky mix. He is physically healthy, super sweet with people, but should be in a one-dog home - he does not behave well around other dogs, you shouldn't plan on taking him to the dogpark. At home, he wants to be with his people, loves belly scratches and butt rubs, treats and all the attention. When I adopted him a few years ago, no one had taught him how to play, and he still has no idea what to do with a ball. But wherever you are in the house, he will get comfortable near by, curl up and wait for you to give him pets. In the past months he has developed some anxiety, which can usually be calmed with medication, but with my work and travel schedule, I think he needs a home where he can have a loving owner making sure he gets what he needs. Adoption fee includes large crate, leash/harness, medicine to get you started.

Story
Hello I'm Daphne! I am a 2-year-old Husky mix!  I am a sweet goofy girl with an easy-going temperament. I am a pretty quiet girl and even though I look like a Husky I don't sound like one. I enjoy playing with my dog friends and I love people. I am house trained and know some basic commands. I would love to find my forever home to take me on walks and snuggle with me at night!  If you feel your home might be the right place for this wonderful dog, the place to start is with the adoption application found at www.dfwrescueme.org/adopt.  Once submitted, the foster will contact you to tell you more, and to arrange a meeting! The adoption fee for all of our dogs is $250.00, which includes their vaccinations and spay/neuter. Daphne is participating in the DFW Rescue Me Guest Dog Program, so custody and ongoing care are provided by the foster, not by DFWRM.August 15, 2024, 9:45 pm

Story
Baldur is a phenomenal pupper! Loves to give kisses. Loves good long walks and runs. Adores sleeping on soft and cushy beds or blankets. He's been my champion getting me through tough times since coming to me as a puppy during the height of the covid pandemic. I love him with all my heart which is what brings us to the point of knowing he may fit better with a new home. We have a newborn and it has taken our time away from caring for Baldur. We're not able to give him much time for playing or walks and are seeing it start to effect his mood. He has seemed bored and unhappy with us and is frustrated when he brings us a toy but we're too busy with the baby to play. We're so hopeful a loving new owner can give him all the love and affection he deserves! He enjoys the company of other dogs (once he gets use to them) both big and small. He even plays nice with the cat. He's never bitten any person or other animal but has shown his teeth when he's meeting new dogs for the first time.
