Story
Holly is a sweet dog! She is around 4 years old and loves her walks and outside time. She is good with cats and other dogs. Holly is well trained; she knows how to sit, stay, come, go home (her crate), and wait. She is harness-trained, and she loves going for long walks! She also loves to get her "Zoomies" out in the backyard, especially when its cool outside. Holly is great at playing fetch as well! Holly is an active chewer, but only on her own treats and toys! She loves to snuggle and play. We are looking to rehome Holly as our son, who has sensory issues, has become increasingly stressed about coming home. Holly becomes happy and barks whenever he comes into the room, which causes him stress. While we know she is happy (her rear-end wags whenever she sees him), and he knows she is happy, the stress has become too much for him.

IF YOU APPLY and if WE APPROVE YOU it means we are assuming when you meet any of our dogs and fall in love you're ready to ADOPT AND HIM OR HER HOME!   Presley and Paisley are adorable sisters   who were found in a rural area south of Dallas last month. Luckily they ran right up to the porch of a very kind family, who reached out to a local shelter, who reached out to DASH to see if we could help find them forever homes!   They’ve done beautifully in foster care together where they’ve become wonderful indoor pet dogs! They’re active and playful and they’re not nearly as “mouthy” as you would expect for 12 week old puppies.   Both girls are housebroken and crate trained/puppy pen trained several hours at a time. They’re on a good feeding schedule. They go potty right afterward.   Paisley and Presley don’t have to be adopted together, but we absolutely want each puppy to go to a home where there is another playful, young dog; if you’re applying and you don’t have another dog to play with, please choose another dog. We have other Aussies and mixes who could be single dogs, but these girls need and deserve playmates as they’re used to having another round to play with and entertain them.    The girls are just what you’d expect from herding dog puppies; they’re extremely smart, very agile, loving, eager, please food, motivated, and interested and curious about everything around them. They have moderate energy, (especially because they have each other to play with and will be so with another dog playmate) so they run around and play for a while and then happily flopped down next to each other and take a long naps.   Paisley and Presley also sleep through the night; again they’re not lonely because they have each other, which is why we want to be sure when adopted they have another dog to be with, a true canine companion.   If you’re interested in meeting either or both of the girls, please complete the application on the website below, then:   TEXT SARA: 214-549-9905   So I can check your application!   www.dashdog.org General Info - PLEASE READ! *Our $450 adoption fee is based on the cost of rescuing, transporting and vetting each dog; we do not try to compete on prices with municipal shelters whose funds are paid by the city.
