My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Bruin is an adorable 7 year old 50 pound black and brindle cattle dog/lab mix. He loves people and other dogs. Not only is he sweet, he is quite photogenic!

Bruin is a herding mix so he will herd small children and even other dogs. He means no harm...this is his job.

Bruin is also allergic to cats. He was allergy tested and cats showed high on the mark. He was attacked by an outside cat on a walk and has a scar that shows his allergic reaction. Although he may be cat friendly, we are looking for a home without cats.

To meet Bruin in person visit our website for more details regarding our adoption process and complete the easy online no obligation adoption application at www.dsda.org/adopt.

* Adoption Fees:

Puppies (12 months and under) - $325

Dogs (over 12 months) - $275

Qualifications for Adoption: No dog is alike and each dog has different requirements based on breed, age, energy level and life experiences. DSDA is very careful to place our dogs in homes that we believe are the best fit for the dog based on our experience with each dog. All of our dogs live in foster homes which allows us the opportunity to learn about their individual needs.

Must be home more than not.

Must be 21 years or older with identification showing present address.

Must have the knowledge and consent of all adults living in the household.

Vet checks are required. All resident animals must be spayed/neutered, up to date on vaccinations and on monthly heartworm and flea/tick preventative (if applicable).

Must receive proof of pet deposit and lease allowing pets if renting.

Willingness and capacity to spend the time and money necessary to provide training, medical treatment and responsible care for a pet.

Applicant is home more than not.

Any poisonous plants must be removed from the yard before the home visit.

Home visit is required. For this reason, we adopt locally in the Dallas and immediate surrounding areas.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

If you are interested in adopting one of our amazing dogs:

1. Please fill out an adoption application. We will be in touch shortly after receiving your application to review it with you.

2. If the application is approved, the adoption team will work with you and the foster to schedule a meeting. You are also welcome to attend our adoption events to meet our dogs, however, it is encouraged to email us first to ensure a particular dog will be attending the event.

3. After meeting the dog, if all parties agree the process should continue, a home visit wil be scheduled and you will be asked to have a list of supplies ready for your dog to come home.

4. If the home visit is successful, the adoption contract is signed, the adoption donation is collected, and your dog stays with you that day. During the 10-day trial period, you and your dog will decide if it is the absolute perfect fit. If it's not, you will work with the adoption coordinator to return the dog.

Adoption Fee - The adoption fee helps cover your dog's basic health needs including spay/neuter and vaccinations. Because many of our dogs come straight from the street, their medical needs are extensive. We spend an average of $500 on each pet for medical needs, training, and rehabilitation. For this reason, we kindly ask for the following minimum donations: $300 for puppies 12 months and under & $250 for adult dogs.
