Meet Jayda!


Jayda
Jayda is just over 3 Years old. Her owner adopted her when she was 8 weeks old. At that time she had her first set of shots, dew claws removed and tail docked. She is half American Rotty and Half German Rotty, she is gorgeous with dark mahogany markings and jet black everywhere else with a smooth short coat. She is spayed, up to date on shots and heart worm medicine, she does not have any medical conditions, she is not allergic to anything and she weighs about 85 lbs.
Jayda is currently lives with another male Rotty who is about 10 years old, but she tends to be the dominant one. She has never been around cats, but has grown up living with her owner's 7 year old son since he was 5 and is very good with him. 
Jayda is house broken and crate trained, she knows basic commands like, sit, wait, lay down, and responds well to treat commands. Once hearing the word “crate,” Jayda will run in her crate and wait for a treat. She absolutely loves  to swim and would do great in a home with a pool and backyard to run and play! While Jayda is good with kids, she is a larger dog and can be very energetic. Adults will need to make sure she does not knock over smaller children.
A few times in the past Jayda has shown some resource guarding behaviors and she does need to wear a muzzle when at the vet. Given the behaviors she has shown in the past, her new owner should be confident and willing to invest time in Jayda's exercise and training. 
Unfortunately Jayda's her current owner is not in a position to work on her behavior. With regular exercise, consistent training and care, this sweet girl has the potential to be a wonderful long-term companion.
For more information about Jayda, please contact tavis@westbrookbrokerage.com.

Labs at Dallas Animal Services


Several Labrador Retrievers are available at Dallas Animal Services. Please email us at DASrescue@dallascityhall.com if you have any questions about these pups or would like to tag them.




Everyone meet Milo!  He is a very sweet 11 month old Labrador.  He has a very calm and sweet disposition.  He loves getting attention.  Milo also has issues with his hind legs.  His left hind leg he is “toe touching” lame.  He will put some weight on it but not very much.  We think it may be hip dysplasia but we are not sure.  He does not appear to be in pain when we examine the area.  Without x-rays we do not know for sure what is causing his lameness.  Even with all this, Milo is a happy loving puppy.  All he knows is that he loves being around people and wants a home that he can call his own!  Please help Milo to get his wish!    




This is Luther the Labrador!  He is a sweet boy who came to us after being hit by a car.  He is about 6 years old and is full of love!  He is doing very well, has not problems walking or anything.  He does have areas on his legs of hair loss that we believe were caused by the accident (road rash).  He is just a gentle giant and is hoping someone can help him!




This big boy is named Hampton!  He is about 1.5 years old.  He is a very smart boy and full of energy.  Hampton is currently available for adoption.  We are just sending him out to all of our transfer partners because he is a very special boy!  He is very smart and is a lab that will need someone who can work him.  He already knows how to sit and will easily learn where you hide your treats and help himself!  He is a wonderful dog but for some people, he may be too smart.  He is a perfect dog and needs a home that will appreciate his intelligence and drive! 




This boy is named Julius.  He is still currently under his stray hold but he will become available on 12/7/12.  He is a super sweet and loving lab that just needs some help finding a good home.  While in his kennel he is calm but will wag his tail as fast as he can!  All he wants is attention and a person to call his own!



Please let us know if you think you can help any of these labs.  Luther and Milo are both in need of rescue asap!  

Email DASrescue@dallascityhall.com to tag or if you have any questions about any of the dogs we have here.  We are here to help!

Puppies in need of help at DAS


These moms and puppies quickly need homes. Please email us ASAP at DASrescue@dallascityhall.com if you can help us with any of these babies. We are not able to hold them much longer.

This sweet girl is named Rose.  This little girl has a strong spirit!  With all she has had to endure through life, she is doing a wonderful job raising her little babies.  Please don’t let it all be in vain.  She has the cutest personality.  She is gentle yet gets so excited when you come to say hi.  All she wants in the world is someone to love her like she loves her babies!  Her pups are the cutest little things ever. They are getting to the age where they are moving but are still awkward.  It is so much fun watching them start to play!  They do have demodex mange which is not contagious and is curable. Rose still needs a little time but once her hair comes back she will be a great addition to any family (even with her hair loss she is still great…remember beauty is on the inside!).  Please help this sweet loving family!


NMOMS2 A756333, A756335, A756336, A756337, A756338, A756339, A756340
This sweet momma is named Star, she is a star momma and loves her puppies!  She is super friendly and will let anyone come in and play with her little babies. She loves to get attention and loves to show off her children.  Her little babies are adorable!  Most of them have little terrier whiskers.  Who knows what daddy may have been, all we can say is they made cute babies.  Momma is taking such great care of them.  They are healthy and happy, they just need time to grow and more time to be with their mom. We need your help to allow that to happen.  Please help this wonderful family.

Cruelty-Free App for Your Phone!

Shopping for cruelty free products can be difficult. I recently found an app, called Cruelty Free, that easily lets you search by product type and company name to find out if a product is cruelty-free. This app makes it easier to look up a product while at the store, rather than googling and reading through multiple websites for an answer. A link to the Cruelty-Free app below:


Always remember to look for the Leaping Bunny logo!
