Dallas Australian Shepherd and Herding Dog Rescue

What was once a group of neighbors who shared a passion for our dogs and socializing with them and one another -- DASH -- is now an official non-profit organization sponsored by a private foundation and the generous donations of friends, family, previous adoption clients and Dallas-area dog-lovers who share a mission: to help us find a home for every lost, neglected, abused or abandoned dog.

Meet Dodger Puppy 1024

APPLICATION REQUIRED from www.dashdog.org  Adoption Fee $450 - the fee is NON-NEGOTIABLE and is not specific for any dog or puppy; it goes to the expenses of the organization as a whole* OUR APPLICATION IS ON www.dashdog.org and must be completed in order to set up a meeting. Our listed dogs ARE READY IMMEDIATELY; we only meet with families WHO ARE READY TO ADOPT! IF YOU APPLY and if WE APPROVE YOU it means we are assuming when you meet any of our dogs and fall in love you're ready to ADOPT AND HIM OR HER HOME!   DODGER is a 1 year old PB “small standard” red merle Australian shepherd, he’s around 35 lbs.    Dodger is crate-trained and housebroken but is young and also needs patience during transition. He has a moderate energy level and definitely LOVES his daily outside time. Typical of the breed Dodger is eager to please and ready to learn more!   Dodger knows some basic commands like sit, down and paw.  He is neutered, microchipped & current on all shots and totally ready to belong to someone!   Dodger was brought into a local shelter as a stray; we work with this shelter a lot and have taken every Aussie or close mix they’ve contacted us about the past year. 2 Kennel Tech/Adoption Counselors there are EXCELLENT assessors who also volunteer for DASH.   Dodger has been given “office privileges” this whole week because he is so sweet and friendly! He is also a snuggle bug and not “hyper.”    Dodger is very treat-motivated and praise-trained; he will warm up to people well after he gets to decompress.   Dodger needs fenced space to run and explore and to have owners that are able to spend a good amount of time outside with him; we would LOVE Dodger to have another dog to play with similar in size range and breed type.   To apply for Dodger please complete the application on our website below THEN:   TEXT  SARA:  214-549-9905 AND KEVIN: 469-623-3999   Thank you!   www.dashdog.org General Info - PLEASE READ! *Our $450 adoption fee is based on the cost of rescuing, transporting and vetting each dog; we do not try to compete on prices with municipal shelters whose funds are paid by the city. Our philosophy is to rescue highly adoptable dogs, have them live kennel-free in private homes for temperament assessments and individual personalities. We work hard to match EACH dog with the right family - kids or no kids, other dogs male or female and/or cats. With very rare exceptions all dogs over 6 months will be spayed or neutered PRIOR to adoption - dogs under 6 months will include a spay/neuter date AND referral info for lower-cost surgery if the adopter does not choose to use her or his personal vet. OUR VETS WILL NOT PERFORM SPAY NEUTER SURGERIES UNTIL DOG IS 6 MONTHS OLD.

Adoption Process
Potential adopter must fill out extensive application. We then coordinate a time to meet them with the dog they'd like to see. They sign a contract and the fee for our dogs is $450.
