Mixed Breed Dogs Available for Adoption

Frost is a young puppy who has been diagnosed with parvovirus (parvo), a serious and highly contagious viral illness that requires intensive supportive care, close monitoring, and prompt medical treatment. Parvo is a life-threatening condition that can cause severe dehydration, lethargy, vomiting, and diarrhea, and treatment is often prolonged and resource-intensive—care that is difficult to provide consistently in the shelter environment.

Despite this diagnosis, Frost is receiving supportive care and is doing his best while fighting this illness.

Frost needs a safe, compassionate placement where dedicated medical care, monitoring, and a low-stress environment can be provided to support recovery.

This pet is at risk for euthanasia due to the level of medical care required, which exceeds what we can provide in the shelter. If you are interested in helping, please email dasadopt@dallas.gov
with your contact information so we can call you back.

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
