Collin County Castaways

We have come across a very sweet dog needing a home ASAP! He is 7 months old, 50 lbs, and sweet as all get out. He is current on all of his shots and was just neutered. He is fantastic with kids, cats and other dogs. Is anyone looking for a very sweet companion?

These are the posts you never want to make. The mama of the lovely sisters below is facing a critical health crisis and needs our help. While it breaks her heart to be separate from her girls, she isn’t in a place where she can take care of them now. Please say a prayer for her, and share this post far and wide in the hopes these bonded sisters can be place together.

Cassie was literally, one of the original Collin County Castaways saved from a tragic situation in Leonard Texas 6.5 yrs ago. She is a BEAUTIFUL brindle mix. Cassie is more independent than her sister, but loves her belly rubs from friends and family. When being introduced to new people, she takes time to warm up or alert barks, but after calm introductions is happy to get a tummy rub. Cassie knows basic commands of sit, stay, lie down, give me 5, and kennel up. She is housebroken, gets along with other dogs/cats and good with children.

Sweet Caroline with her soulful eyes, is a medium sized mixed breed dog, approx. 4yr old. Caroline has a VERY sweet nature. While initially shy, once she knows her people, all she wants is to be them relaxing nearby. She loves for her belly to be scratched! Caroline responds to sit and kennel up at bed time. She however does not want to be kenneled (she unfortunately was in a kennel for so long before being adopted) - she has a bed on the carpet next to Cassie's kennel. She is housebroken and gets along well with other animals and children.

Please contact us with any questions!

*We received this message asking for help finding a new home for this sweet boy*. He is an Anatolian Shepherd mix (roughly 50-60 pounds).

We have established some basic obedience commands. We estimate him around 1 yr old. Loves to run and be outside. So he would need a big yard or lots of exercise. He has done good with our personal dogs (range from large and medium size dogs) though sometimes he forgets his size and can overwhelm, but hasn't been aggressive. He is still learning how to play and be a house dog, as he seems to not have had that before. He does good in a crate and hasn't had any accidents in the house. Overall, he is very sweet but would probably need an experienced owner/foster due to his size and enthusiasm. He has never been around cats. He is located in Trenton, TX.

This beautiful sweetheart is an owner surrender. He is off hold at CCAS, and wants out of there. He is a neutered, 2 year old American Bulldog. He is very strong, but is so sweet and loving. Please go visit him to see for yourself, you will love him just as I do.
