Description: On Saturday, May 16th, Lime was scheduled to be euthanized at Dallas Animal Services at 11:30 AM. His foster had to return him, the shelter was full, and suddenly his life was on the line again.
Unfortunately, this isn’t the first time Lime has ended up back in the shelter system. He has been adopted/fostered and placed in homes that weren’t the right fit, gone through living situation changes, and experienced people realizing they weren’t fully ready for the commitment of a dog. None of this is because of anything Lime has done wrong. Just a series of repeated human failure, and each time, Lime was the one left to start over.
Lime can be a little shy and overwhelmed when meeting new people or adjusting to new environments, but after everything he’s been through, we completely understand why. Once he feels comfortable, you start to see the real Lime. He gets the zoomies in the grass. He rolls onto his back when he’s happy. He proudly carries around fuzzy toys and loves curling up next to his people for couch naps. He rides great in the car, enjoys running trails, sits politely at doors, and thrives when he starts learning a routine.
There is a really sweet dog hiding underneath all the stress and heartbreak shelter life has put on him. Lime needs someone kind, patient, reassuring and willing to understand that his world has been confusing and heartbreaking for a VERY long time.
