Andi
🐾 8‑month‑old Cattle Dog Mix
Bug hunter | Puddle jumper | Brave little comeback kid

Andi is an 8‑month‑old Cattle Dog mix who has already lived a whole story’s worth of life, but she’s writing a much brighter chapter now. She came into the rescue in really rough shape, but this girl is resilient. With love, safety, and time, she is blossoming a confident, curious, joyful pup who greets each day like an adventure waiting to happen. 🤩

🪰 She LOVES to hunt and catch bugs (seriously, it’s her favorite hobby...you'd think she was getting paid!). She thinks puddles are nature’s playground. She adores playing outside, exploring, and romping with other dogs.

When she’s done with her adventures, she’s more than happy to curl up in a soft spot for a cozy nap. She’s crate trained, super smart, and settling beautifully into the rhythm of home life. 🏡

Andi is still working on being brave when meeting new people, but really? It might just be her clever way of earning extra treats. 👀

Once she warms up, her sweetness shines through. She’s adorable, fun, a tiny bit sassy, and full of heart. 💗

Andi would be a great match for someone who:
- Loves an active, playful companion
- Enjoys a dog with a curious, outdoorsy spirit
- Has another friendly dog for her to romp with (bonus!)
Understands that confidence grows with patience, kindness, and snacks/.

If you’re looking for a spirited, lovable pup who has overcome so much and is ready to live her best life, Andi might be the perfect fit. She’s brave, joyful, and so easy to fall in love with.

***** ADOPTION APPLICATION: https://iamdogrescue.org/adoption-application/

IMPORTANT — PLEASE READ
Our adoption fee is $175. We require an application to be completed prior to setting up a meet‑and‑greet. We do not offer “on‑the‑spot” adoptions. We do not adopt on a first‑come, first‑served basis. We do our best to match dogs with families that will be a good fit to help ensure a successful adoption. We reserve the right to decline any application for any reason. Due to the nature of our adoption process, our fosters are usually only able to consider forever families within a reasonable driving distance of the Dallas‑Fort Worth metroplex. A vet reference is required, and a trial period will be completed before finalizing the adoption. Thank you for your understanding.

🫶 Marty has his very own emotional support animals. His sweet foster siblings, Hazel and Koda (both adopted from I Am Dog Rescue), have been keeping him company as he begins his recovery from his heartworm treatment. He's being a trooper so far, and his foster family is working hard to keep him occupied. ❤️
Thank you to everyone who sent Marty items from his Wish List. It means the world to us! 😍

🫶🐕 DOLLY UPDATE - THE GOOD AND THE NOT SO GREAT 🐕🫶
Pretty little Dolly is settling in with her foster family really well. We LOVE seeing her have the zoomies! She loves to play and can run SO FAST! She crashes pretty hard after though. 😅
We found out Dolly is heartworm positive, so she will need to go through treatment. 💔 Since she's a fun, active girl, it'll be challenging for her. But, this girl is NOT a fan of the crate at all. She's got a lot to work on before her treatment starts in order to get through her recovery phase safely. Please keep her foster family in your thoughts as they work through lots of bribes and tricks to help her embrace her crate space. 🙏

❤️😓 MARTY - HEARTWORM TREATMENT 😓❤️
Marty had a heartworm treatment injection yesterday afternoon, and he had his 2nd injection this afternoon. The injection can be quite painful, so he got sent home with some pain medication that has him feeling pretty goooooood. 🥴

We haven't quite reached the halfway mark on his treatment fundraiser. If you could, please share the link with your network and help us raise the rest. 👇

Ever had a puppy (or toddler) in the house that’s just, well, “very active”? Sometimes, you might feel like you need just 5 minutes without any chaos. 😜
Koi gets it. She’s in a home with TWO puppies, and she’s had enough puppy shenanigans for a while… 🫣

✨ A Happily-Ever-After Update for Dutchess ✨
Some stories just stay with you, and Dutchess is one of them.
Some of you might remember this brave girl who joined us a couple years ago after being hit by a car. She was hurting, scared, and unsure of what her future would look like. But her incredible foster family showered her in love, patience, and gentle care, and Dutchess blossomed. 🥰 She healed. She learned to trust again. And then she hit the jackpot with the perfect forever family. 🤩

But, the very best part? They’ve stayed in touch! Dutchess recently got to visit her foster mom and have a full-on playdate with her former foster siblings. Go ahead and cue up those happy tears! 🥹

Seeing her now: healthy, confident, and so loved? THAT'S everything we hope for in rescue. This reunion helps to remind us that fostering doesn’t just save lives, it builds lifelong connections. 💞

Dutchess, you look even more gorgeous!
To her foster family: thank you for giving her the soft place to land.
To her forever family: thank you for giving her the world.
We’ll never get tired of stories like this — they’re the heart of rescue. 💙🐾

🐶🐾 Playdate Before the Big Week 🐾🐶
Yesterday, Marty and Riley had their first playdate...two I Am Dog Rescue boys just enjoying a sunny afternoon together. ☀️

Riley hasn’t had many chances to meet new dogs yet, and while he can be a little screechy on leash, off leash, he was an absolute gentleman. He and Marty played, explored, and soaked up the day like they were old friends. 🤗

It was such a joy to see them both relaxed and happy, especially Marty, who starts his heartworm treatment tomorrow. It’s a tough process, but he’s ready for it, and we’re so proud of how far he’s come. 😍

If you’d like to help Marty through this next chapter, his fundraiser and Amazon Wish List are still open. Every gift helps make his recovery a little easier and keeps our rescue dogs moving toward their bright futures.

💙 Thank you for loving them like we do.

🙌🐶 FOSTER NEEDED 🐶🙌
Just look at this face! This pretty girl was running around all by herself and looking for someone to help her. She's a lab mix and about 5 years old. She's a total sweetheart and LOVES to ride in the car. 🚗
We'd love to tell her she never has to be alone again, so if you can foster this fuzzy girl with grinchy feet, please contact us or complete our foster application found on our website. 🌐

🥰 MARTY SAYS, "THANK YOU!" 🥰
Marty is going to hang out with some friends today as he gets ready for his heartworm treatment on Monday. ❤️
He was pretty excited to get a care package from his Amazon Wish List and wanted to send out a big hug and thank you. 🫶
