Dog Rescued from Abusive Home


This dog needs our help! My neighbor rescued this sweet dog from an abusive home, but cannot keep him herself (she has four dogs she has already rescued) and we need help finding her a home. She is an Austrian shepherd mix, gets along with other pets, and has been updated on all shots, heart-worm negative, and micro-chipped. If anyone can help us, we would sure appreciate it. This poor dog has been through enough and she is so lovable: she deserves some caring owners. 

Please contact Louise Crain at louisecrain@gmail.com for more information on this sweet pup!

Special Case - RESCUED!

From Mark Cooper with Dallas Animal Services:

I have a very special case that I’m hoping someone can assist with. I’d like to introduce you to “Fiona” the Terrier. Upon her arrival, she immediately began showing serious signs of behavior issues. She was surrendered by her owner who is a senior citizen and recently underwent surgery to correct a brain injury. She is no longer able to care for the dog. We quickly determined this dog would not be suitable for our adoption or rescue program and made the decision to humanely euthanize her today. Perhaps her behavior issues where caused by a painful back injury or something of that nature. That’s what our vet had concluded. You see, every time we would approach the kennel, the dog would scream out like he was being tortured. Everyone was afraid to touch her because she would became so fearful and vocal. Would she attack out of fear or perhaps pain??

A couple of hours ago and only minutes before she was walked to the euthanasia room I made a last ditch effort, I decided to step into the cage and see if I could get a better, more positive response from her. To my joyful surprise I found that this dog is AMAZING and so super sweet!!! She does however suffer some SERIOUS separation anxiety. All she wants is to be in your presents and a soft lap to rest in. She has no injuries, and she doesn’t have an aggressive bone in her body. This is the perfect dog for a senior who isn’t very active, or a retiree who stays home a lot. I bet some medication would probably go along way with her anxiety. If you can help, please let me know ASAP! She is afraid of no one and wants love from everyone around her. 

We cannot hold this dog long because she is not doing well in this shelter environment. She has spent the morning with me at my desk and she’s now in our admin office enjoying the human contact. It would be cruel to place this extremely scared and anxious dog back into her kennel, but we must if not pulled soon. I desperately need her pulled ASAP! If you can help, let me know soon.

 This is a “unique” couple that raise their babies together. Both mom’s are very friendly and trusting of their babies. It’s a couple with very adorable babies. The momma’s were owner surrendered and it’s probably for the best. Their ears have been eaten up by flies and they act like they are starved for attention.

Mastiff/ Shepherd mix grandpa and two Chi’s are all such a sweet and happy family. LASTLY….Not all families consist of a momma and her pups! Families are made of all types. This is a unique family with what we guess is a grandpa figure and his two grand kids. Grandpa is a gentle giant who doesn’t appear to have been well cared for. The two grand kids have no worries with grandpa around. They are cute and super sweet curling up under grandpa’s belly!

If you can help with any of these families, please let me know. Their time is short and their plea is urgent!!
