Meet Dinah! This spunky lady looking for a home where she can roam, sniff, and be near her people.

"You wouldn't know it by looking at her, but this girl is all wiggles and zoomies. As soon as you get her out of the shelter and on a trail, she absolutely shines!" says Ellis, one of Dinah's volunteer friends. She's a running queen, has excellent on-leash manners, and enjoys rolling around in the grass when she needs a break from zooming. After her adventures, Dinah is happy to sit and snuggle with you on the couch or patio and nap the rest of her day away.

Here at the shelter, Dinah is a rockstar in playgroup and loves to be around other laid-back pups. While she would be happy to have a canine sibling who wants to explore and sniff alongside her, she also does well as the only animal in the home. She's also super smart, knows all her basic skills, and would love a human who wants to keep her mind sharp as she lives out her golden years!

Does Dinah sound like your perfect furever friend? Stop by the shelter to meet this sweet lady today!

INTERESTED IN FOSTERING?

This pup is currently located at our Town Lake Animal Center (1156 W. Cesar Chavez, but use 1200 Reserve Road for mapping purposes). We'd love to show them off to you! To learn more about them, head in any day between 12:00PM - 6:00PM. We are open 7 days a week! Go to Building B and ask to speak with a Matchmaker about fostering this pup. You will sit down and discuss all we know about them and, if it's a good fit, get to meet them then! Please budget for a wait time unless you arrive right at opening as we cannot dictate walk-in traffic (wait times tend to be highest in the evenings and on weekends). If this pup ends up not being the best fit, we have so many other pups in need that we can suggest for your household on the spot!

Come meet your new best friend

A Picture of Transport Success: Darla
