DPA!’s Dog of the Month – March: Meet Freckles!
Meet Freckles! He’s a fan of kind people, big trucks, car rides, squirrels and family life. And he’s looking for a permanent home.
2018 – The Year of the Dog and What that Means for You!
If you were waiting for a sign to adopt a dog, this is your sign for the next year. Starting February 16th, 2018 we will be in the Year of the Dog according to the Chinese zodiac calendar. In the Chinese calendar every year is represented by one of twelve zodiac animals in a twelve month cycle. Each twelve year cycle is designated with an element rotating between metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. This year, 2018, is represented by an Earth Dog. The last occurrence of a Dog was in 2006, and the last Earth Dog was in 1958! This means that anyone born during this year will inherit the Earth Dog characteristics of being communicative, serious, and responsible – much like famous celebrities, Madonna and Michael Jackson, who were both born as Earth Dogs!
DPA!’s Dog of the Month – February: Meet Molly!
Molly’s story should have a happy, tail-wagging ending. Our dream is to see her in a forever home with some fun kids to play with, taking long walks with her family and cuddling up on the sofa in the evenings with her favorite people.
DPA!’s Pawesome Person: December Foster Spotlight
Although Julie is new to the foster team, she has made such an impact in her short amount of time with DPA. We know that if a dog is in need of immediate transport to the vet or a temporary place to stay in order to leave the shelter, Julie will step up to the plate. She always has our dogs and cats in mind and will do whatever is needed to save their lives. She radiates generosity and compassion for not only the animals but the other fosters in our organization. It is people like Julie that make our community so strong and impact so great. I am excited to watch her grow in this organization and help save more lives. – Stefanie Steiner, Foster Director for Dallas Pets Alive!
Dallas Pets Alive! Tweens & Teenagers
“Everybody loves a baby!” It’s a commonly used phrase when a family welcomes a new addition, but the same holds true when it comes to pets, especially for ones that are in need of forever homes. While kittens and puppies are oh, so adorable, there are many benefits to adopting a slightly more mature, but still young, pet.
