Meet Dan
At seven years old, Dan is a bit shy and would do best in a home with a backyard and a calm environment. Picture leisurely walks at the park, the sun casting a warm glow on his sleek black and tan coat. This pup is the embodiment of relaxation, ready to accompany you on strolls while he walks calmly on a leash (He’s still working on that!), turning every outing into a delightful adventure. Dan’s friendly nature lets him form bonds with kids and other dogs, making playdates a breeze and family interactions heartwarming.
Meet Winston
Winston is a gorgeous boy with a smile as big as his heart! This 67-pound, six-year-old, mixed-breed dog is a quiet and thoughtful pup who, once he gets to know you, will cuddle up right beside you. He’ll also enjoy a soft spot to chew on a bone.
Sweet Winston is looking for a caring and compassionate home that will help him continue to build his confidence. He’s a little bit shy when meeting unfamiliar people, so his new family will take their time putting him out on the social circuit.
This precious boy would love a four-legged sibling to run around with in your securely fenced backyard and to help him learn the ropes. Winston is a well-behaved fellow who gets along well with other dogs and doesn't even mind cats!
Throughout August, in recognition of “Clear the Shelters,” all dog and cat adoptions will be only $25 at the SPCA of Texas’ Dallas Animal Care Center and the Ellis County Animal Care Center.
