We are sharing his info in cooperation with a rural shelter. We often work with. Time in shelter (as of April 16th): 784 days Meet Taz — and let’s be real… 784 days is way too long for any dog to be waiting. Taz came to us as a stray on 2/21/2024, and somehow, he’s still here. He’s about 3 years old, around 45 lbs, and full of personality. The kind of personality that makes you laugh one minute and shake your head the next — in the best way. He’s quirky, smart, and has so much potential just waiting for the right person to see it. He’s dog-friendly, but like a lot of dogs who have spent time in a shelter, he can get a little reactive out in public. He’d do best in a home without small kids, or with older, dog-savvy kids who understand his energy and boundaries. Taz is food motivated, knows sit, walks pretty well on a leash, and has a serious ball drive — he LOVES to work and play. He was even tested for detection work, but didn’t quite have the nerve strength for that path. Still, that drive and focus mean he could absolutely thrive in the right environment — maybe even as a sport or activity dog. And medically? He’s completely ready to go:✔️ Neutered✔️ Microchipped✔️ Rabies, DAPP, Lepto & Bordetella vaccinated✔️ Dewormed✔️ Heartworm negative✔️ On monthly heartworm prevention Now all he’s missing… is a home. A couch. A person. 784 days is 784 too many. Let’s change his story. Please share. His person might not have met him yet. ❤️ please complete the application on our website below  Then TEXT SARA:  214-549-9905 So she can check your application and get back to you! www.dashdog.org General Info - PLEASE READ! *Our $450 adoption fee is based on the cost of rescuing, transporting and vetting each dog; we do not try to compete on prices with municipal shelters whose funds are paid by the city. Our philosophy is to rescue highly adoptable dogs, have them live kennel-free in private homes for temperament assessments and individual personalities. We work hard to match EACH dog with the right family - kids or no kids, other dogs male or female and/or cats. With very rare exceptions all dogs over 6 months will be spayed or neutered PRIOR to adoption - dogs under 6 months will include a spay/neuter date AND referral info for lower-cost surgery if the adopter does not choose to use her or his personal vet. OUR VETS WILL NOT PERFORM SPAY NEUTER SURGERIES UNTIL DOG IS 6 MONTHS OLD.
