Dallas Pets Who Need A Home: Luna The Space Dog, Shade, Sloan & More
Want to add a new member to your family and have a positive impact on the Dallas community at the same time? Adopt a pet from a local shelter! During the coronavirus pandemic, many animal shelters in Dallas and environs are still working to fulfill adoptions.
In the search for your new friend, consider beginning at a local adoption center like Dallas Pets Alive, where Winter Ii the dog is waiting patiently. If you aren't sure if you have time to take care of a pet year round, many shelters also offer opportunities to foster pets until they are placed in permanent homes.
If you need some help in your search, Patch and Petfinder have you covered. We round up a list each week of all the pets recently put up for adoption in your area. If you're a dog person, you might like Luna the Space Dog, a Basenji up for adoption. Or if cats are more your thing, there are several great cats available, too. Click on any listing for more information, or to start the adoption process.
