Did you know Dallas Animal Services is at 142% kennel capacity for dogs? Fortunately, we found a win-win solution, and it’s adopting one of the 436 dogs currently looking for a fur-ever home. So consider this a quick preview and head to their website for hundreds of more dogs.
Note: Availability of dogs are subject to change.
If you want a puppy
Pick up Hamburger, the dog — not the sandwich. He’s a 10-month-old pup who is expected to grow into a 40+ lbs breed. “Oh, where do I start! Well, I’m just a happy doggo trying to live my best life and match up with a new family,” reads his bio.
If you want a younger dog

Meet Murphy, a one-year-old gentle giant. He’s made the adoption process easy by being a certified good boy who is already house and crate trained. The shelter reports he’s getting better at walks on a leash, too.
Alternatively, there’s also Princess, who is also one-year-old. She has a case of the zoomies when it comes to playtime, but she’s can sit on command and walk on a leash.
If you want an older dog

Say hello to Dia, a three-year-old husky breed. She’s a little timid, but once she warms up she loves to go on walks or cuddle on the couch.
There’s senior dogs available too, like Chello, a 10-year old mixed breed. This floofy boy is looking for a relaxing place to call home, and maybe a quick haircut too.
