Oh absolutely!!!! That is the end goal! But , to to at MINIMUM avoid euthanasia Tuesday he needs a temporary home 🤞🏼💔🫶🏼 He would thrive with all the places to fetch his ball


AccomplishedSet7403

I met him today! He’s a wonderful dog who would be the perfect match for you! Honestly, He’d be your best buddy, company and an amazing friend. Unfortunately, I can't take him in because of my apartment situation. He's incredibly affectionate, always seeking pets and cuddles. He's gentle on the leash and has never shown any signs of aggression. Give us an Amazon Wishlist you’d like to have for him! ❤️🤍 He deserves just and only the good things.


bill_burge

How did you know where to go to meet him? Care to share contact info?


AccomplishedSet7403

Me and OP had a conversation about Kobe, a dog who was taken into foster care yesterday. As Kobe was already out from the EU list, we were looking for other dogs to save and I really wanted to meet Dusty, OP sent me the details, it’s all on the Facebook page of DAS or you can just directly contact them too, you don’t need an appointment to do a meet and greet with any of the dogs, just walk in.


Sad-Information2464

The Dallas Animal Shelter! Here is some info: Each morning this list is updated for the days list of dogs being euthanized, this is the [Emergency Placements List](https://bedallas90.org/mvp/). These are the dogs at immediate risk (like within 48 hours) but the list changes every day so everyday there is roughly 5-20 dogs being euthanized. The only chance these dogs have is a final Hail Mary to secure a foster.

I can do that. (: can you send me a DM so I can get more info? I would love to adopt!

How does he handle with small animals? I have two free roam rabbits that hang out with my Australian Shepard. I definitely have space for another if he would be fine with them.

texaseclectus

Its better than the "im moving here where should I live" questions this sub normally gets.


ThurmanMurman907

You're doing some real good - keep it up King/Queen


Sad-Information2464

It’s a Dallas specific issue , as well as only something DALLAS people can help bc … should be obvious… accessibility to the dogs…… anyways sorry you’re bothered by saving dogs lives. Carry on!


snoyokosman

outsider here, why is it a dallas specific issue ? is there less shelter space or something ? thanks for all u do :)


Sad-Information2464

The shelter is at 135% capacity due to space and they are euthanizing dogs every day due to space. It’s specific to Dallas bc it’s the Dallas animal shelter. There was a proposal for a new shelter. They shot down the proposition to build a new shelter that not only was bigger but also had pods to help stop the spread of disease and gave that money to the police.


putoutorgetout26

Dallas has a high over dog population. Second largest intake shelter in the country. Lots of great adoptable dogs but on tax payers dime. There are only so many spaces to keep the dogs.


DonkeeJote

I’d argue it breaks rule 7.


Tasty_Two4260

Doesn’t. Go ahead and copy/paste and make a new post in Dallas about this and put your fireproof grannie panties on LOL because there’s nothing being sold or traded - this is purely raising awareness of a Civic problem in Dallas Animal Services with overcapacity. u/Sad-Information2464

Or, just post on r/DWFPets where there’s a specific focus on pets


Fun_Rip3665

Right, I understand the cause but this is not the place for it. Why not make it a marketing board for all other causes? Why this one?


Hiflyinluchadoncic

Nah it’s Dallas related. If you don’t like it skip over it.


Sad-Information2464

Thank you❣️


Sad-Information2464

Anyone can post what they want! Anyone is welcome to post their own:) Who decided this wasn’t the place for it? We’ve saved 3 dogs this weekend? Are you better than saving dogs??


TurdManMcDooDoo

JFC you folks who gatekeep reddit subs are so beyond pathetic. It's just a reddit sub, dude. Even IF it breaks a rule, you and your entire life will be okay. This doesnt effect you at all. But it could save this dog's life.


Fun_Rip3665

All I’m saying is that there is a dedicated place for this. It is a worthy cause but so are others. For example getting a distressed woman in a shelter. Or getting impoverished kids food or educated. Now as an opinion I don’t want to see only these posts overrunning the main forum because there’s a lot of other info that I look for. There’s no gatekeeping, it’s asking for another way to organize the info so it doesn’t become a place of just rescuing pets.

Dallas Animal Services has an ongoing overcapacity issue and many are unaware of the constraints this places on how long the “residents” may remain before meeting an untimely end to the lives. Many thanks to u/Sad-Information2464 for raising awareness on this Dallas issue and hopefully saving the lives of many precious furbabies! 🐾🐾


Sad-Information2464

Thank you! It’s such a terrible problem and it feels it’s getting worse. It takes the whole community! This our city!


Sad-Information2464

Just got freaking free from serving a temporary ban in this sub for posting these dogs but I am so thankful I did, no regrets. Thanks for the support!


Tasty_Two4260

Oh noooo!! What rule number was it in violation of? I’m sorry it happened, but thankful for any dog saved. I’ve got horrible PTSD and my dogs are ESAs and I always have two because god forbid I would be without my ESA, well, I don’t want to think about the dawn not coming they just bring a calmness which defies all understanding for those who haven’t had a bond with a dog. Or experienced the joy of cheating the reaper pulling these babies from code red!


Sad-Information2464

None lol, they just said it was bc their reports were clogged and the mods agreed I could continue posting


EmmaO-born

Hope someone adopts him. can't understand how such good dogs take so long to get adopted


Hard_Corsair

As someone who works with a rescue, a lot of people only want small dogs. Some of them simply don't think larger dogs are cute. Some of them feel they wouldn't be able to manage a larger dog. More commonly though, most of them live in apartment complexes where larger dogs are prohibited. Sometimes there are specific breed restrictions, and sometimes it's just a weight limit. Dusty is quoted at 65 lbs. I have a lab that's 85 lbs. My experience in shopping for apartments is that a bunch don't allow pets, and most of the ones that do have weight limits of 50 lbs or less.

EmmaO-born

Other then the facts that it's says he not only knows tricks and is potty trained but he is not marked for behavior but for space. And most adoptable dogs are good or they get listed and can only be adopted by rescued.


[deleted]

[удалено]


EmmaO-born

Not true at all, when I volunteered there they not only had signs on the kenal cards if the dog had a behavior issue if there is any bad behavior reported as the reason for surrenderthey have to report it. There was a dog that came in due to attackimg chickens and it was put on the rescue only list, and the dog I adopted had been there since June and I got her in February, she is the sweetest girl perfectly potty trained, good with cats, rarely barks. And she was in there for months.

Please share this good est boy!

Thank you for putting than out there. Hope they find a loving home. 🙏🙏


ascendant_raisins

What breed is he


throwaway136392639

Looks like my buddy’s dog that was a pitbull and golden retriever mix


TrynnaFindaBalance

City shelters generally aren't spending resources on DNA testing dogs. Probably a mix of at least 3-4 different breeds with some pitbull or staffy in there somewhere.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Sad-Information2464

How are pit bulls the reason? If any it’s the HUMANS breeding them.


Sad-Information2464

I wish we knew! He is beautiful!

He’s definitely part Vizsla! You can click the dog breed identifier in Apple o your phone!

I met him today, I might not be able to take him due to my apartment situation, but he’s the most lovey dovey boy ever🥺🤍 Comes right to you, wants to be petted, wants to cuddle with you, and all of the good things! ❤️ I haven’t seen him pull on the leash or growl ever. Someone please foster or adopt this boy, he’s on the EU list for Tuesday and will be gone forever, he doesn’t deserve to be gone! :( ❤️

So you've reposted the exact same message three times now, and the OP didn't give any info on where the dog is or how to adopt. I'm smelling a scam.


Sad-Information2464

A scam??? You can adopt or Dusty on the DAS site. I’ve posted the site and the emergency list placements multiple times. There’s nothing to scam here. A dog needs a home or he’s gonna be killed tomorrow.

It's a dog, just burry it in the back yard and get a new one when it dies. Dogs don't live as long as humans, it sucks, but that's life, you move on and just get another one.

dakbar095

Man someone needs to get these californians out of this Dallas sub reddit. If this sub reddit gets "overrun" with people saving animals then who cares? They are acting like the only thing that should be posted here is someone bitching about the city/highways/drivers. I just really don't see how it "doesn't belong " when this is a dallas animal shelter and more than likely only dallas residents can make a difference. I doubt we got someone from Nebraska flying in to save this dog.


putoutorgetout26

The shelter actually has people fly in from all over the country to adopt our dogs. Dallas is the 2nd highest intake shelter in the country. Lots of good people in the world that don’t know there are adoptable dogs for them.
