Spayed Female available at The Colony

Meet Cyan. Se is a spayed, sweet 4-year-old. She has lots of energy and is a master escape artist (this is her 4th time at "the joint" and her owners decided, sadly, not to reclaim her this time). If you're looking for a good dog, and have a good fence, head on over to The Colony shelter and meet Cyan. Contact Trish at 972-370-9250.

3 lb. 6-week-old Blue/Black female Australian Shepherd puppy (erroneously listed as a Catahoula puppy) - This baby is sweet and beautiful. Surely someone can take this adoptable little toot! She's been the only dog in the Cat Section her entire stay here, so chances of exposure to anything are small.

Bastrop Texas Husky Available

This is a beautiful gal available in Bastrop, Tx. She was a surrender, her story was that she was given to someone in the city and they were just leaving her alone in the back yard. Neighbors were complaining because she would just sit there and cry all day. Her name is "Annabelle" she is approx. 4-5yrs old. We don't know if she's been spayed. She is extremely friendly, her only fault is that she does get food agressive towards other dogs. Please have anyone interested call us at 512-581-4080 or email toanimalshelter589@yahoo.com.

Sad news

There is a rescuer in NM, Lyn, who recently rescued a liver female Dalmatian named Coco. She suffered the worst complication from spay surgery that you could possibly imagine. Both the internal and external sutures failed and her entire intestinal tract spilled out onto the kitchen floor. Lyn and her vet, Dr. Abercrombie, fought to save her but in the end it was not meant to be.

Throughout this ordeal Lyn spent over $3,500.00 out of her own pocket to try and save little Coco. As an individual rescuer, Lyn does not have any outside funding and runs Albuquerque Dalmatian Rescue out of her home. It is for this reason that we are reaching out to our friends in hopes that we can lessen her financial burden. There is no recourse from the shelter vet who spayed Coco, and Lyn will have to close her rescue until she can pay off the surgery charges. This will mean that other Dalmatians in NM will die. Lyn needs our help desparately and I hope we can help reduce Coco's vet bill.

We have created a special page on our site so you can read about Coco and her struggle. http://www.dalmatianrescue.org/coco/coco.htm

Paisley in her foster home

Paisley is a sweetie pie Dalmatian. She's about 8-10 years old and has recently moved into her foster home. She's a pro at car rides and races her foster mom to see who can be first in the car. Paisley also likes just hanging out in the car and following her foster mom wherever she goes.

We hope Paisley can move into her furever home soon so she can hit the road with her permanent family!
