🎃👻 HALLOWEEN FUN, FULL BELLIES, AND STILL WAITING FOR FOREVER HOMES! 🐾🧡

Our pups had the BEST time at our Halloween adoption event at Opa Greek Taverna! They got to enjoy a fun outing, soak up some love, and even enjoy a FREE pup meal courtesy of Opa! 🍔🐶 Talk about being spoiled! 🥹🧡

But while they had a blast, there’s one thing still missing… their forever families! 🏡❤️

🎃 MEET OUR AVAILABLE PUPS! 🎃

🐾 Gladys & Edgar — Our bonded senior duo! 👵🏻👴🏻 These two are looking for a home together where they can spend their golden years surrounded by love. They come as a package deal because best friends stick together! ❤️🐾

🐾 Marlowe — This sweet boy loves affection and enjoys getting out and about. He’s ready to trade shelter life for a couch, a family, and a lifetime of love! 🧡

🐾 Cinder — Our handsome black Lab boy who loves people and is dog-friendly! He’s ready to find his perfect match and start his next chapter. 🖤🐾

All four of these amazing dogs are STILL AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION through Rowlett Animal Services! 🏡

They enjoyed their Halloween outing, but we’d love for their next adventure to be going HOME FOREVER. 🥹🎃

🙏 A HUGE thank-you to OPA! for hosting us and treating our pups to a delicious meal! We appreciate the support and love for our shelter dogs! ❤️

🎃 Don’t let the Halloween fun end here — make one of these sweet pups part of your family!

☕❤️ SOME GOODBYES TURN INTO THE HAPPIEST REUNIONS! ❤️🐾

Look who came back to visit us… MACCHIATO! 🥹💕

Macchiato spent 2½ YEARS with us at the shelter before finally finding her forever home last year. Two and a half years of waiting, hoping, and wishing for someone to choose her. And then, finally, her happily ever after came! 🏡❤️

Getting to see Macchiato again was such a special reminder of WHY we do what we do. Dogs like Macchiato can spend months or even YEARS waiting for their chance, but they have just as much love to give as the ones who get adopted quickly.

🐾 DON’T OVERLOOK THE LONG-TERM RESIDENTS. 🐾

The dog who’s been at the shelter the longest might just be the dog who changes your life forever. ❤️ They aren’t broken, they aren’t less deserving, and they haven’t stopped hoping for a family of their own. They are simply waiting for someone to see them, choose them, and give them a chance.

ADOPTION CHANGES LIVES — AND SOMETIMES, IT SAVES THEM. 🏡🐶

If you’ve been thinking about adding a furry family member to your home, please consider adopting from your local shelter. Open your heart to a shelter pet, especially one who’s been waiting a little longer. You could be the reason their story finally gets its happy ending, just like Macchiato’s! 🥹💗

Macchiato, we are SO happy you found your family, and we loved having you back for a visit! Once you’re part of our shelter family, you’re ALWAYS part of our shelter family. ❤️🐾

PLEASE ADOPT. GIVE THEM A CHANCE. BE SOMEONE’S HAPPY ENDING. 🐾❤️

UPDATE: PLACEMENT FOUND!!

🚨 URGENT RESCUE PLEA — NEWBORN PUPPIES NEED HELP! 🚨

These two tiny babies are just newborns and have found themselves without their mama. 💔 They are far too young to survive on their own and desperately need someone who can step in to give them a chance.

WE NEED A RESCUE OR EXPERIENCED FOSTER ASAP!

🐾 Ideally, we are looking for:
❤️ A nursing mama dog who can take in two additional puppies.
🍼 An experienced bottle feeder who can provide round-the-clock care.

Newborn puppies require frequent feedings, warmth, and constant monitoring. These babies need someone who can give them the specialized care they need to survive.

🙏 Can a rescue, experienced bottle feeder, or nursing mama help save these babies?

Please share this post and tag any rescues or experienced fosters who may be able to help. Every minute matters when you’re this little!

📩 If you can help, please reach out immediately!
Email: [email protected]
Let’s give these babies a fighting chance. They deserve the opportunity to grow up, thrive, and find loving homes. ❤️🐾

🐾 OZARK IS WAITING FOR HIS FOREVER FAMILY! ❤️🥺

Meet Ozark! This handsome 3-year-old, 53 lb boy has so much love to give and is hoping his person finds him soon! 🐶💙

✨ A few things to love about Ozark:
🐾 Walks beautifully on a leash
🐾 Loves other dogs
🐾 Calm, gentle, and easygoing
🐾 Can be a little reserved when meeting new people, but give him a little time to get to know you, and he warms up into a sweet, loving buddy! ❤️

Ozark may need a little patience at first, but sometimes the best friendships are the ones that take a little time to grow. 🥹 He deserves someone willing to give him that chance and show him what it feels like to belong to a family.

🏡 Available for foster, foster-to-adopt, or adoption.

🐾❤️ MEET COCO (AKA FALLON) — YOUR DREAM DOG IS WAITING! ❤️🐾

✨ House-trained? YES!
✨ Knows her manners? YES!
✨ Dog-friendly? ABSOLUTELY!
✨ Loves people? YOU BET!
✨ Gives the BEST cuddles? YOU BETTER BELIEVE IT! 🥹❤️

Coco is currently living in a foster home, and her foster, Madison, has nothing but wonderful things to say about this sweet girl! She’s an affectionate, gentle, people-loving pup who just wants to be someone’s whole world. 🏡💕

Coco is the kind of dog who will follow you around, shower you with affection, and remind you every day how much you’re loved. She’s already learned commands like sit, stay, and wait, takes treats gently, and is even smart enough to leave squirrels and bunnies alone when you tell her to! 🧠🐶

And guess what? She’s HOUSE-TRAINED! She’ll even wake you up when she needs to go outside. Talk about a good girl! 🥹👏

🐕 Coco LOVES other dogs! She enjoys meeting people, gets along wonderfully with other dogs, and doesn’t bark at them. She’s still learning how to play, but she’s ready to discover all the fun life has to offer!

❤️ What does Coco need in her forever home?

Coco is an active girl who needs someone committed to giving her long, daily walks and plenty of exercise. She also struggles with separation anxiety, so she’d do best with someone who is home most of the time and can help her feel safe and secure. She may bark for a few minutes when left alone, and while she’s a little nervous in the car at first, she eventually settles in.

In return? You’ll get a loving, loyal companion who’s eager to learn, happy to be by your side, and ready to become your very best friend. ❤️

🏡 COCO IS CURRENTLY IN FOSTER CARE AND NEEDS A FOREVER HOME!

She’s already showing her foster just how wonderful she is. Now she needs someone willing to give her the permanent home, love, and stability she deserves.

📣 PLEASE SHARE! Her forever family could be one share away!

🐾 Interested in adopting Coco? Contact Rowlett Animal Services to learn more about bringing this sweet girl home!

❤️ Don’t shop, ADOPT! ❤️
