Initial intake information: Chocolate Female - 58 lbs - Heartworm negative - Est available date - unknown at this time

May is a very special girl. She is a gorgeous petit chocolate lab who was used for breeding.  She was surrendered to a kennel who re homed her to family in the country.  She did not adjust and they turned her into their local shelter.  She came to us being very untrusting of humans. Luckily the wonderful folks at DFWLRR recognized she was a diamond in the rough and with lots of love and behavior training, she could trust again.

May is a very sweet  girl . She rarely barks and has never chewed on anything she was not suppose to. She is crate trained but can also have free roam. She is very calm in the house.  May loves quiet neighborhood walks, she is still learning to trust humans so is very hesitant when meeting new people  and does not  go up to people to greet them.  She loves to sit on the couch with you  and  she thinks there is nothing better than sharing your bed if you allow. She has been working with one of our awsome trainers and continues to make slow consistent progress with gaining confidence.

May would do best in a home where someone is home more than away and understands that May is a work in progress and that it will take time for her to gain your trust. A calm environment would be best. Kids would probably not be a good fit since she does react to loud noices and voices.  She would make a great companion to someone looking for a dog as a walking partner and to hang in the house with them.   If you are looking for that social dog that can go everywhere with you, May is not  your dog.  She has come such a long way from that girl who shook uncontrollably that first day to where she is today.   She needs daily reinforcement to make sure that her confidence progression continues to move forward.  

May gets along great with other dogs and would do fine with another dog in the house.  She pays no attention to the cat in the house.

In need of a fur baby to snuggle with on the couch? Or to keep you company while doing chores? Or maybe a walking/running partner, this boy has the perfect stride. Murray would make a great companion for you. At 70lbs and underweight by 5-10 pounds Murray will have plenty to love on. And he loves to be by you ready for that loving.

Murray is crate trained, housetrained, and working on basic commands. At night Murray sleeps in his crate and does very well. During the day, he is crated when I run short errands. When gone for a long period during the day, he has been allowed to roam freely, with no problems. He does get overly excited when food is around, so we are working with him to sit before going into his crate to eat.

Murray gets along well with other dogs and is learning to retrieve a frisbee and ball. Even tug is fair game when there is more than one dog involved. He is unresponsive to outside cats, he prefers to check out the treats that they are getting.

Murray will need to continue training on his basics and would do best in an active house. Due to his size and his excitability factor, children under 6 might not be the best fit.

Kensi is another of our special needs dogs.  She was rescued from the streets of Ft. Worth by a good samaritan and taken to a shelter who called us.  After a couple of weeks in foster care, she was discovered to have more needs than we anticipated.  But Kensi is a fighter and a very sweet girl.  She deserves the best we can do for her.  Now that those items are resolved, she will be begin a slower Heartworm treatment process in January.  This is due primarily to her advanced age.

Sometimes, rescuing dogs is easy and sometimes it’s not. Pixie is a girl that has been through a lot in a short period of time.  She and her sister, Hallie, were surrendered to a shelter sick. Sadly, we eventually found out they were sick with distemper instead of just a respiratory infection. Pixie, after a long recovery and lots of meds has made it through distemper, pneumonia and ringworm!  She is a fighter!!  

At the same time, Pixie is as sweet a little girl as you can ever imagine. Petit, adorable, a tangle of legs and potty trained.  She is such a love! 

Right now, Pixie has neurological issues as a result of her infection. The affects are facial twitching and she is a little unsteady on her feet but every day she is stronger on her feet and acting more like a puppy. Pixie gets around very well, goes outside to lay in the sun or do her business, wants to play with dogs, takes walks and in most ways is normal - she is even starting to play with toys and wanting to chew on things she shouldn't!  These are wonderful signs that she is on the road to recovery. 

She sleeps sweetly all night with no accidents, if crated, and is getting more and more of a appetite every day. We don’t know exactly what the long term future holds for Pixie, but in the short term, she is safe, growing, improving and well taken care of and loved by her foster and the other dogs in the home. If you have the heart and place in your life for a special dog like Pixie – let us know you would like to meet her.

Bathsheba is a beautiful chocolate female. She gets along great with our 3 big dogs, and she likes to play chase and tug-of-war with them.  She hasn't shown any interest in chewing anything, and doesn't jump up on people or furniture.  She's a velcro dog and just wants to lay down near you while you work or eat. She knows "sit" and has a gentle mouth for taking treats.  She's the short and stocky kind of lab.  She goes into her crate well, although cries a bit at first.  We have seen that behavior decrease, though, with just a few days of our routine.  She's a bit of a sloppy drinker! She hasn't met any kids yet, but we will update when that happens.

Here comes a handsome, young big boy full of love, energy and fun! Baja knows sit and down and is very well mannered in the house. He doesn’t beg for food, is not into counter surfing and takes treats very gentle from your hand. He is a dream dog par excellence. Baja loves snuggling, playing with other dogs, fetching balls, splashing in the doggie pool, playing in running sprinklers and most likely swimming too. He is a huge snuggle bug, but not jealous when you pet another pet. He will do great with children, but might accidentally knock smaller ones over. Baja loves car rides and will quietly sit or lay down during the ride. 

Of course, being a somewhat young dog, he needs lots of love, training and attention in his new best friend(s)/family. Being new to his foster home, he does have a little separation anxiety. He doesn’t like being left alone and will let you know with a whine and high pitched bark. He gets very excited and loud when meeting other people and dogs, especially outside. Baja is a very strong boy and therefore, he will need to continue some leash training. Right now he walks the foster mom, and not the other way around. He is super friendly, but his bark can be impressive with new people.

His behavior towards cats is unknown but we know he is not a fan of kenneling but the good news is, he is trustworthy in the house.  Baja sleeps nicely on a dog bed beside your bed and he figured out the sofa is comfy too. So you should have a spot left for him and you will find he will be close on your side no matter what you do!  Baja will make someone with lots of time and love a great companion!
