Story
Merlin is a very handsome Border Collie mix. He is two years old and weighs about 42 lbs - not too big, not too small, just right! Merlin came to Humane Tomorrow as a very shy and fearful dog, and while new things still scare him a little, at home he is a totally normal dog now. He loves to run around in the backyard, playing with the other dogs in his foster home. He really must have another playful dog to help him settle in to his new home and feel comfortable. Merlin also needs lots of sturdy chew toys and he LOVES to play fetch (but he'll chew up a tennis ball in nothing flat, so Kong-type toys are best). Merlin is a smart dog, and he will sit perfectly when waiting for the nightly treats. He is ok going for short walks and car rides (but remember - new things do scare him). He will be perfectly content to play and exercise in his own backyard where it's safe and familiar. He's probably always going to startle at loud noises and be cautious around new people, but he's getting a little braver every day. Merlin will be fine with anyone once he gets to know them, but he can play a little rough so kids over 10 are probably best for him. Merlin is an affectionate, playful, devoted dog who just needs someone who accepts him for who he is.

Meet Izzy bizzy bee   Izzy is a very special girl and she’s looking for her very special family, maybe that’s you or someone you know!  Izzy is a former alumni dog who has come back to BCRRT - through no fault of her previous family - unfortunately circumstances changed and it was best for all parties that Izzy come back to us.  Since being back we have learnt all about Izzy and her wonderful personality. We have discovered the love she gives us is never ending, the cuddles she produces are out of this world and that she loves nothing more than her donut ring toy and a tennis ball!! She does take time to warm up but once she trusts you, she bonds to her person/people and is ready for all the adventures that lie ahead.  Izzy will need a home that is quiet. She would be best suited to a family with no young children and no other dogs.  She is such a sweet girl with love to give and would love to find her forever home with people willing to spend time with her, throwing a ball around, quiet walks with her humans and cuddles.  She is active but has an excellent off-switch and knows when it is time for inside vs outside. Izzy would do well with an older couple, maybe an empty-nest home where she can be spoilt forever and ever. In return she will give you her unwavering loyalty and spunk  Izzy is around 6 years old, UTD on all shots and spayed. She is crate trained but is perfectly fine out of one, she walks well on a leash but is strong. She rides well in a car and is located in the DFW area.  Interested? Reach out to us and apply today! We believe Izzy deserves the world and can’t wait to help her find it.

Story
Lucy goosy goose 🪿 or at least that’s what my foster dad says when it’s time for dinner!  Hi! My name is Lucy! I am a 5 year old female Border Collie in the DFW area, searching for my furever home…is that you?!  I am around 40lbs, spayed and UTD on shots.  I’m your typical BC - herdy, nerdy, active and playful! And sometimes a little quirky.  I was an owner surrender to a Texas shelter because my owners couldn’t care for my vet bills anymore. After many tests, trials and treatments the vets were a little stumped on why I sometimes have issues digesting my food 🍲 sometimes I eat too quickly and sometimes food gives me indigestion so it comes back up.  It doesn’t affect me much beyond some fluctuating weight and doesn’t happen all the time - see, quirky!  My foster parents said whoever adopts me just needs to be patient and kind with me.  I would do best as an only dog or with a four-legged friend who is playful and doesn’t mind me wanting to herd them!  I would also do best in a home with older children because I do like to herd (I’m a border collie!)  Maybe even an older home with someone to keep me company during the day, walks and play time!  I am cat tested and safe, the resident cat is a little scary.  I am crate trained, leash trained and my favourite thing in the world is to play fetch!!  If I sound like the girl for you, reach out today and apply at our website - www.BCRRT.com

Story
Are you a gentle person looking for a companion who is easy to exercise in your fenced yard and a wonderfully entertaining friend? That’s ME! I’m Sydney! I’m a small girl (34 lbs), 2 years old, spayed, healthy, vaccinated BC/Mini Aussie mix. I like training exercises (treats!) and learn fast! I sleep deeply through the night in my comfy crate and don’t mind spending a bit of time there during the day if you have to run errands (like getting me new tennis balls!) I have a busy mind, will bark at sudden noises (so apartment living would not be a good fit). I can be picky about canine friends and not a good buddy for birds, cats, squirrels, rabbits, or small children. I am smart and sensitive, will follow you everywhere, look to you for guidance and comfort (and tennis balls). I truly want to please you. I am expressive, have the cutest wiggle butt you’ve EVER seen, and if you love to laugh out loud, I’m your girl! I am currently in the DFW area and ready to be adopted! Apply for me at bcrrt.com.

Story
Like big mutts? Then sweet Glenn may be your guy! Glenn is a sweet, loving, boisterous larger puppy. Glenn weighs about 60 lbs. and should not get much bigger. He has some physical special needs. Glenn needs adopters who are home most of the time. He would thrive as an only dog or with a large breed sibling. He is too rough and tumble for cats, dogs under about 40 lbs. or small kids.  Glenn arrived at a DFW-area shelter in July. He was about four months old and suffered from multiple gunshot wounds. Since then, he has had several surgeries and is doing well. There are lasting effects, however. He has a fused hock joint, so will need moderate, consistent exercise and diligent weight management, and he has had a urethostomy, so he needs to be taken outside at least every two hours or provided with a potty pad when his humans are absent.  Glenn loves gentle fetch and more vigorous tug games and also enjoys snuggling on the couch. He is such a precious, resilient boy who has been through so much but deserves his happily ever after. Could you be his ideal match?

Story
Prim(Rose), affectionately known as Prim, is a vibrant, young, healthy, spayed, border collie mix with a heart full of love and a mind sharp as a tack. At just shy of one year old, Prim is a bundle of energy and intelligence, showcasing the strong herding instincts that her breed is renowned for. Though she may be on the smaller side, what Prim lacks in size, she more than makes up for in spirit and agility. Prim thrives on engagement and loves to put her brilliant mind to work, making her an ideal companion for an active family that can provide her with plenty of mental and physical stimulation. Her keen intelligence means she’s a quick learner, eager to please, and ready to take on any challenge—whether it’s learning new tricks, navigating agility courses, or going on adventurous hikes. While Prim adores human companionship, her strong herding instincts make her choosey about her canine friends. While Prim loves wrestling with her doggy friends, she is not a fan of sharing any of her toys.  She would do best in a home without other dogs or with a very confident dog who can match her energy and leadership. This will allow Prim to shine as the loving and loyal companion she is meant to be, without the stress of navigating complex doggy social dynamics.   Prim is looking for a forever home that understands and appreciates the unique qualities of her breed—a family that is as active and adventurous as she is, ready to explore the world together. With the right guidance and love, Prim will not only be a faithful friend but a true member of the family, bringing joy, laughter, and lots of fun to her new home. If you’re looking for a smart, spirited, and sweet-natured dog to add to your life, Prim(Rose) is waiting to meet you.

Story
Dahlia is a loving, loyal, and very goofy girl. She is always down to play with her favorite toys, a racquet ball or tennis ball, squeaky stuffed animals or a cardboard box, she just loves to play with you. She also loves to run so a yard is a must. At night after a long walk, she loves to cuddle on the couch and sleep until it’s time for bed. Dahlia was adopted July 2022 and was a little over a year old, so i think her birthday is about June 2021. She is anxious around other dogs so would need to be the only one in the house, but I think with time and training, it’s fixable. She was attacked so she is skeptical of unfamiliar dogs. She has never been around a cat so i’m not sure how she would react around them. As for children, smaller children make her nervous since they’re so close to her face and she can get a little over excited and jumpy so it’s best to have older kids in a house. Dahlia now knows sit, down, stay(sometimes), still learning “come” but she loves learning. 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. Dahlia is participating in the DFW Rescue Me Guest Dog Program, so custody and ongoing care are provided by the foster, not by DFWRM.October 14, 2024, 10:13 pm

Hello I'm Radar! Everyone always talks about my ears! I am a young adult and have some puppy energy. I love to chew on toys and I may need some help learning what is okay to gnaw on. I love to play with dogs and I love people! I would do best in a home with other dog friends to play with. I have spent most of my puppy life in a shelter so I am working on house training. I enjoy my crate and love to snack on some frozen kongs while you are out.

Story
Vienna is a gentle, sweet and loving blue heeler mix. She loves to snuggle at your feet and look lovingly into your eyes. She is great with other dogs but doesn’t want to play with them; if a dog is being too energetic in her face she does let them know with a nice little rumble. She is appropriately 6 years old. When found, Vienna had been living on the streets in rural Louisiana for over a year. Despite that difficult life, she is good with (older) children, though we’re unsure how she’ll respond to cats. She likes to go on short walks in the park and really enjoys watching other dogs play, even though she has no interest in joining them!
