Sugar, Courtney, Kurt & More

Do you want to add a new member to your family and have a positive impact on the Dallas community at the same time? Consider adopting a dog, cat or other animal from a local shelter. Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, shelters in the Dallas area have dogs, cats and other pets ready and waiting for someone to take them home.

There are thousands of dogs, cats and other animals of all ages and sizes without a home in Texas — and many of them are located near you. In the search for your new family pet, consider looking around at a local animal shelter like Furry Friendzy, where Brandie 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 put together a list each week of all the pets recently put up for adoption in your area. If you’re a dog person, meet Sugar, an American Staffordshire Terrier mix up for adoption. 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.
