Story
Wacha is a 5 year old pittie mix, weighing in at about 50 lbs. She’s spayed, house broken and potty trained; extremely playful, affectionate and cuddly!  Wacha is an active, athletic girl that will be best paired with a family who provides the physical activity she so enjoys!  Maybe introduce her to “dog sports” like agility, nose-work, or just a running partner. Wacha doesn’t appreciate cats, and can be “dog selective”. A home with small children wouldn’t be good because of their unpredictability, but she loves older children and adults. 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. Wacha 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

Story
This is Hunter, a blue nose pit/ lab mix about to be 3 y/o on August 20th! He loves dentley’s bones and going on trips! He isn’t friendly with other male dogs but is friendly with other female dogs! He would be great in just a 2 dog household and even better if it is just him! We are unsure how he is with toddlers but older children he should be fine with. He doesn’t like his ears touched too much and he doesn’t like being picked up… but loves cuddles, belly rubs and walks! He is also e-collar trained but still follows basic commands without the e-collar!

Hi I'm Kiera! People are my favorite thing in the whole world! I cannot contain my excitement when people come near me! After I greet you and wiggle my body all over then I can relax with you and hang out on the couch. I am crate trained but I would prefer to sleep next to you on the bed. I get along with dogs my size and who like to play a lot. I can play a little rough sometimes so I would do better in a home with a dog who likes to play like I do. I love kids but I would do better in a home with older children due to my excitement when people come and I forget how big I am.

Story
Miss Ma'am will thrive in a single-dog home. She loves to play fetch and tug of war but at the end of the day, (and the beginning and during the middle of the day) she will jump into your lap and cuddle. Her front leg is amputated but that does not slow her down one bit. She is an athlete at heart and enjoys walks and loves to sit in the grass at the park and watch the world. She is a smart and eager to please. She has some insecurity and would be best in a home where she is the only dog and can be the star.

Story
😍🐶 ADOPT STABLE 🐶😍 This handsome boy got to go to “school” and learned all about how awesome he is. We wanted him to have a name that reflected our goals for him to overcome his lack of confidence, and “Well Balanced” sounded more like a cereal name, so…Stable it is! Stable had a pretty rough start in life after being abandoned in an apartment, which left him scared and insecure as a young pup. He went into the shelter and after a foster came forward asking to help him, he became part of the I Am Dog Rescue family. Something that’s really important for young pups (and any dog) to learn is how to make good choices (we want them to do “this” vs. “that”). When they are provided too much guidance and aren’t given the opportunity to make any decisions, they aren’t able to learn the “right choice” vs. a bad decision (chew on my bone vs. chew on this chair, for example). Unfortunately, Stable wasn’t in an environment where he was able to build confidence and learn how to make good decisions, so he needed some extra help to become a happy, balanced best friend for a family. Stable’s time in training has been fantastic for him. He is a happy-go-lucky boy who still has some goofy puppy in him, which we guarantee will make you laugh every single day. He LOVES snacks and learns quickly, which means he has unlimited potential. Stable loves to play and thrives in a home where he knows what is expected of him. He is just so handsome, and he isn’t above using his charm to talk you into extra playtime, more snacks, and additional snuggles. Stable would love to have an easygoing, confident doggy pal in his new home, and he’d prefer to avoid little kiddos and kitties. As part of Stable’s adoption, we are including sessions with Stable and his professional training team to help with the transition into a new home. Sharing all the awesome things we’ve learned about what motivates Stable and understanding his approach to new situations will help him and his new family bond quickly and give him a chance to be the very best companion.
