City of Denton Animal Shelter

🐾 We appreciate all the inquiries about Rolly and the delayed shelter opening last Friday. Our staff wanted to be present for his special airplane departure to Ho-Bo Care Boxer Rescue in Colorado. ✈️💖

We're thrilled to share that Rolly has safely arrived in Colorado and is thriving in a loving foster home. He already has had many adoption inquiries! 🏡✨

Special thank you to Flying Shepherd Ranch for helping to make this happen! 💕

Check out this video put together by DTV about our sweet boy, Rolly's journey to rescue (Who's cutting onions? 🥹)

😭😍ADOPTED 😭😍 We are so happy to see her go to a loving home.

Sweet senior Canary is singing for someone to take her home! Just because an animal is a senior doesn't mean they can't show love 💞.

Good morning, Denton! ☺️

We are working to obtain more metal puzzle feeders for the dogs in our shelter, as these feeders provide essential mental stimulation. Below is our Amazon Wish List, and you are welcome to browse it and send us any items you wish to contribute. Thank you!

👋Meet Titan👋
A friendly and loyal 5-year-old German Shepherd who has been waiting for his forever home since February 8, 2025! Titan is already potty trained, which is a great start, but he could use some extra help with his leash manners. The good news is that he’s very food-motivated, making training a fun adventure!

Titan loves to greet people and can get a little excited, so he would thrive best in a home where he’s the only furry friend. Like many German Shepherds, he finds shelter life a bit challenging, so finding a loving foster or permanent home would mean the world to him. If you’re interested in giving Titan a chance at a happy life, we’d love to hear from you!
