DPA!’s Dog the Month – September: Meet Duncan!
This is Duncan, an Australian Kelpie/Weimaraner/Mixed with a sable coat that matches the color of a caramel macchiato! And he’s just as sweet! He’s an older boy with a great temperament who is looking for his fur-ever home.
DPA!’s Dog the Month – July: Meet Gus!
Meet Gus, a Black Mouth Cur/Mixed with a steady disposition and a love for just about anyone he meets! He’s an amiable pup who gets along easily with the other foster dogs living with him and quickly bonds to the people around him. It’s been said that he has never met a person he hasn’t liked!
As Seen on TV: Gus, Elliot, Charlie, Zephyr, & Lady Guadalupe
If you’ve tuned in to watch the Ruff Life segments on The CW33 on Wednesday evenings, you might see a few familiar faces here. That’s because these six magnificent dogs were each featured for their own 15 minutes of fame, and are somehow STILL adoptable with Dallas Pets Alive!

Ruff Life: Elsa is Ready to ‘Let Go’ of Her Past
When she showed up at Dallas Animal Services, it was like she was frozen. It reminded them of a young Elsa, her namesake, in Disney’s Frozen, turning everyone away while hiding out in her room. The circumstances, though, were much different.
Holly the Hospice Foster
Meet Holly, a senior Golden/Chow mix. Holly is the face of hospice foster pet care.

When she arrived at Dallas Animal Services, she exhibited symptoms of physical and emotional stress, but when our volunteers got her out in the play yard, we saw a different dog. She ran laps, was carefree around other dogs and even played with her reflection in the windows. Due to her happy-go-lucky nature outside her kennel, DPA was able to find her a foster home, but that’s only the beginning of Holly’s story.
