Story
What's an energetic terrier to do when her humans can no longer work from home, and is suddenly left alone during the day? She dreams of a new home where she can get the attention, exercise, and stimulation that an active young 3-year-old craves! While Luna spends long days alone tolerantly resting in her crate, she fantasizes about the freedom to run, play fetch, chase critters, go on adventures, and impress people with all the tricks she knows (like rolling over, spinning, giving kisses, and balancing treats on her nose then tossing them into the air to catch!).  Luna yearns for snuggles, belly rubs, and lots of human interaction. Surely those are reasonable desires! She's reliably house-trained and has been working on being a calmer leash-walker. Though she's a lover, Luna is uptight about new people coming to the house and reacts with barking and jumping. After a few treats and a little time, she will accept the new friends and soon will be bringing them her toys for a game of fetch. Her alertness to strangers means she takes her guarding responsibilities seriously and she will notify you of suspicious noises or people outside. She would do best in a stand-alone home without shared walls, and in a quieter neighborhood. Luna loves most other dogs but she is a big girl for a rattie mix, weighing 35 lbs., so smaller, timid, or grumpy dogs could be annoyed by her persistent, playful energy. Her excitable nature and inclination to resource-guard high value treats also makes her unsuitable for young children. But beautiful Luna will be the perfect companion for active and engaged household whose members are home often. She's a super smart, highly affectionate, fun-loving girl! See more photos of Luna at www.imageevent.com/Newrattitude/luna .Our adoption fee is $200 for adult dogs or $250 for puppies under 6 months old. If you are interested in adopting this dog, PLEASE READ THE DETAILED ADOPTION PROCESS information on our website at www. NewRattitude.org/adopt/  From there, you can access our adoption application or contact our Adoption Team for more info. November 5, 2024, 10:43 pm

Story
Meet Bobbie, the tiny pup with a big personality! Fate brought Bobbie and her rescuers together. Good Samaritans found the sweet little 9-pound pup, soaking wet, shivering, and missing a lot of fur. They named her Bobbie, in memory of their dog Bobby who was rescued from the same area and who had recently passed away. Since being rescued, Bobbie has gone from being shy an scared to being happy and playful. This little nugget would thrive with another doggo so they can play all day! She is totally crate-trained and doesn't make a peep at night. Fill out an application to meet sweet Bobbie!

Attention DPA supporters! Allow us to introduce a Dallas Pets Alive original, limited edition, Ringo Starr!

It also means he shares birthdays with Katy Perry, Pablo Picasso, Juna Soto, and Craig Robinson! Musical talent, art, athleticism, and humor? That sounds like a great time!

Story
Danielle aka Coco is a sweet, comical little girl.She loves being petted and is quick to offer her belly for tummy rubs. She enjoys tearing around the backyard, at breakneck speed but stops after a couple of laps. She loves playing with her foster buddy, Marvin (aka Vinnie), but she can sometimes challenge other small dogs. She will also initially challenge larger dogs, but stops after being put in her place a time or two with a bark from the larger dog. Coco was returned for nipping at a baby but she was okay with toddlers in her foster home when she returned to our program. Because of her history, I would not recommend placing her with babies or children under the age of 6 or so. A trial period with any other dogs in the home would be recommended. She could also be an only dog and be perfectly happy. She loves people. ****Prior to filling out an application or contacting RHS, please completely read the instructions below.**** ALL ADOPTERS/FOSTERS MUST LIVE WITHIN 60 MILES OF RICHARDSON, TX.
