We don’t know what to do anymore. The reality we’re facing right now is truly heartbreaking.
Every day, we post foster pleas and receive little to no interest. Our inbox is overflowing with requests for help, but we’re having to say no to so many dogs because we simply don’t have enough fosters. It’s devastating to turn them away, knowing they need us… but we can’t keep taking on new cases when we can’t find foster homes for the ones we have already committed to. It’s not fair to the dogs waiting for their chance. And it’s not easy on our team... the emotional and mental toll of saying “no” when all we want to do is help is overwhelming.
We’ve been posting about Willow and Sadie for over a month now. Willow had inquiries, but no one followed through... Sadie still hasn’t had a single inquiry. If you’ve ever thought about fostering, now is the time. You could be the reason a dog gets their second chance.
-------------------
Not long ago, Riggs and his siblings were tiny, scared pups doing their best to survive on the streets. Riggs was the first one to find safety, and now our hearts are overflowing with joy to share that every single one of his siblings has been rescued too.
From life under dumpsters and semi-rigs… to cozy foster homes with warm beds and gentle hands, these siblings’ story has completely changed. They’ve begun their vetting and will soon head to our wonderful partners at Kind Paws in Ohio, where foster and adopter families are waiting to love them.
While all of Riggs’s siblings have found safety and love in safe homes, Sadie is still out on the streets, doing her best to survive. Sadie has done her part. She kept her babies alive. She protected them the best she could. Now, it’s her turn to be saved.
We have no safe place for her to go without a foster.
No foster means Sadie stays on the streets and we can’t let that happen.
Please, if you have a spare room, a quiet space, or even just a corner of your heart to give, Sadie needs you.
Email us at capture@duckteam6.org if you can foster.
----------------------
For over a 2 months, Willow has been seen in Rockwall County. When Good Samaritans first saw her, she was very thin, likely from nursing puppies. Puppies have not been seen with her or in the area. With consistent feeding, she is slowly gaining weight and looking healthier.
Willow is still very skittish and does not let anyone get close, but she has not shown any aggression. Unfortunately, she doesn’t always pay attention to cars when crossing the street, which is a big concern of ours. She deserves a second chance at safety and love.
We have been urgently seeking a long term foster to help Willow begin her journey off the streets. We have secured a rescue, but still need a foster. Will you be the one that can change her life? She is such a beautiful girl and really deserves a chance.
Please email capture@duckteam6.org if you can help.

‼️SADIE AND WILLOW STILL NEED OUR HELP!‼️
Our Capture Team is not accepting new cases until we can get these two girls off of the streets. We have been trying desperately to find them fosters, but no one is interested. How do we continue our mission if we cannot find fosters for two dogs?
🐕 Willow is ready for capture. She appears to be on the medium side and a shepherd mix. She is terrified if people come close, but has shown zero aggression. She may have had a litter of puppies before being dumped. She has been roaming in the road and we are desperate to help her.
🐕 Sadie is Riggs's mom and while his story was traumatic and he is now in a foster-to-adopt home, no one has stepped up for her. She has one blue eye just like him and has shown zero aggression. She did her job raising her pups, now it's time for her eyes to shine from love and happiness. She is good with other dogs. All of her puppies have been caught... Now it's her turn.

Help us welcome Gator to Duck Team 6! 🐊💚
This little guy had been roaming an empty lot in Weatherford since last October. Despite Animal Control’s efforts to capture him, Gator managed to stay just out of reach. His dedicated Good Samaritan reached out to us for help, and after coordinating with Animal Control, we stayed in close contact as Gator’s situation grew more concerning. He was living near a busy intersection, and many people were worried for his safety.
Thankfully, Animal Control made another attempt recently and this time, success! 🙌 Since we were so involved in his case and a foster stepped up, we happily tagged Gator and brought him into the Duck Team 6 family.
He’s now safe and sound in his foster home, beginning to decompress. We can’t wait to see this sweet boy blossom and start his new chapter! 💕

This is incredible! You guys are truly amazing 🙏 I’m so glad we found you and Gator now has a chance for a healthy fun fur-ever safe home. He is a sweet sweet pup. I will miss sitting in the dirt feeding him chicken nuggets.
Gator… you’re so handsome!!
Thank you so much for helping him! There are a lot of relieved people in Weatherford now! Best wishes, Gator ❤️
‼️Long Term Foster Needed‼️
It is still Willow! She has had ZERO interest!
For over a month, Willow has been seen in Rockwall County. When Good Samaritans first saw her, she was very thin, likely from nursing puppies. Puppies have not been seen with her or in the area. With consistent feeding, she is slowly gaining weight and looking healthier.

Any ideas on age?
She’s a small girl and I’m sure would be the best snuggle bug once she got used to people and having to survive. She’s so cute.
She’s so beautiful!!!

Thank you to everyone who came out or donated!! ❤️❤️ such a fun event! Can’t wait for the next one!
It was a blast!!
Yesterday, we received SIX new requests for street dogs that need help. These are six more dogs we will have to turn away because we cannot find fosters that are desperately needed for our current cases.
Not long ago, Riggs and his siblings were tiny, scared pups doing their best to survive on the streets. Riggs was the first one to find safety, and now our hearts are overflowing with joy to share that every single one of his siblings has been rescued too.
From life under dumpsters and semi-rigs… to cozy foster homes with warm beds and gentle hands, these siblings’ story has completely changed. They’ve begun their vetting and will soon head to our wonderful partners at Kind Paws in Ohio, where foster and adopter families are waiting to love them.
What once felt impossible is now a reality because of compassion, teamwork, and the incredible support from our community. These pups will never know fear and hunger again, only kindness, comfort, and love.
Here’s to new beginnings for our Duck Dog Riggs and his siblings, proof that even the hardest starts can lead to the happiest futures.
While all of Riggs’s siblings have found safety and love in safe homes, Sadie is still out on the streets, doing her best to survive. Sadie has done her part. She kept her babies alive. She protected them the best she could. Now, it’s her turn to be saved.
We have no safe place for her to go without a foster.
No foster means Sadie stays on the streets and we can’t let that happen.
Please, if you have a spare room, a quiet space, or even just a corner of your heart to give, Sadie needs you.

We should have mentioned, Sadie is roaming with two INTACT males! We want to get her before she has more puppies
All of Sadie's puppies are SAFE but please help us get her safe! We will be working on the two males she is hanging out with next.
🥳 October Volunteer Spotlight: Yvonne Ybarra
We are excited to highlight Yvonne Ybarra in this month’s Volunteer Spotlight!
As a co-founder of Duck Team 6, Yvonne has been a driving force in our mission for over a decade, helping countless dogs find safety, healing, and forever homes. She has worn many hats throughout the years, always stepping up to meet the needs of the organization with heart and dedication.
This past September, Yvonne once again led the charge for our North Texas Giving Day fundraiser, helping Duck Team 6 raise over $41,000 to support our mission! On top of that, she continues to serve as our Treasurer, ensuring that every dollar donated is carefully managed to help the dogs who need us most.
And because she never stops giving, Yvonne recently dusted off her foster hat and is currently caring for Honey (pictured with Yvonne, above) — a sweet girl who has been waiting far too long to find her forever home. Honey couldn’t have asked for a better foster mom, but Yvonne would love nothing more than to see her adopted into the family she deserves.
We are incredibly grateful for Yvonne’s passion, leadership, and compassion. Her impact on Duck Team 6 is immeasurable, and her example inspires us all. Thank you, Yvonne, for giving so much of yourself to the dogs and to this mission we share!

📣 Look Who Got Adopted: Maddy
Sweet Maddy came to us emaciated and in need of a leg amputation. After months of healing and learning to trust, she has finally found her forever home!
Maddy has always been a shy girl, the kind of dog who needed a very patient adopter willing to give her time and space to come out of her shell. At her meet-and-greet with Lisa, she was so nervous that she wouldn’t even let Lisa pet her. But Lisa saw her potential, trusted the process, and wanted to move forward with a trial adoption.
Lisa already had a dog named Maddie (yes, there are now two Maddys in the house!), and the girls hit it off right away — playing, chasing squirrels, and even snuggling after their playtime. Slowly but surely, our Maddy started to blossom. She began following Lisa around the house, curling up at her feet at night, and eventually greeting her in the mornings with sweet affection.
This adoption is such a perfect match! Lisa gave Maddy the patience and love she needed to feel safe, and in return, Maddy has shown her resilience, intelligence, and heart. She’s been gentle with the chickens on the property and playful with her new sister.
Maddy now has a brand-new name to mark this fresh start — she is officially “June Lilly”, lovingly called Juney Girl. From the streets, through surgery and recovery, to finding the patient, loving home she truly deserves, June Lilly is finally home.

There are some capture cases that really just stick with you and I think Ruby's will stay with me forever.
We were unable to assist when her Good Samaritan, Dolly, reached out the first time and I often think about how different the outcome would have been if we could have helped. Would she still have ended up pregnant? Would she still have been as grateful to us if we had caught her sooner?
When Dolly found out she had puppies, I think we all had a minor heart attack. With it already being difficult to find fosters and a rescue to take in one dog, how could we find placement for 12 dogs that all had to stick together? Not to mention the time crunch of the homeowner wanting to sell the puppies. After weeks of us struggling to find a place, Dolly stepped up. She knew Ruby needed her and she had the space to temporarily take in the family.
We went out Monday and it was astonishing just how sweet Ruby was. We are very hands off once a dog has been captured, but she came out of the trap and was immediately looking for affection and checking on her puppies. I swear she knew we were there to help. She gave us all kisses and allowed us to bathe her and her puppies.
This morning, Dolly and I transported the family to the Dallas County Humane Society, where they will be adopted out from Dallas Pets Alive. They will remain together until they are weaned and ready for adoption.
My heart is so full of gratitude and my shoulders are 12 dogs lighter. A HUGE "Thank You" to Dolly, Jenay and Sarah for making this happen. To everyone that shared, liked and commented on her story, we are so grateful. This family of twelve is safe and have nothing but a bright and happy future ahead.
We really cannot thank everyone enough.❤️

📣 Look Who Got Adopted: Lucy & Kirk
Some love stories are written in the stars… and some are written in foster care. Meet Lucy and Kirk, two pups who came to Duck Team 6 on very different paths but found forever — and each other — in the same home.
Kirk’s journey wasn’t easy. After femur surgery and a board-and-train, he found himself in long-term boarding, waiting for a chance. Enter Cathy and Everett McNeese — long-time DT6 volunteers who swooped in to give him the foster home he deserved. Quirks and all (yes, including peeing in his food bowl when he’s done eating), they quickly fell head over heels for this goofy boy.
Not long after, Lucy (formerly Biscuit from the Breakfast Club Litter) needed a temporary foster. As a puppy, Lucy was found living under a mobile home in West Dallas, dirty, flea-covered, and scared. With months of food, care, and love, she blossomed into a happy, playful pup — though still shy with new people. Cathy and Everett welcomed her in, gave her the extra attention she needed, and quickly decided she belonged with them for the long haul too.
And then, something magical happened. As Lucy and Kirk got to know each other, they became inseparable — running, playing, snuggling, and healing together. Their bond grew into something undeniable: they weren’t just best friends, they were love birds.
Cathy and Everett couldn’t imagine letting either of them go, and they knew they couldn’t separate this pair. So they made it official: Lucy and Kirk are now permanent members of the McNeese family!
From under a mobile home and long days in boarding, to zoomies, cuddles, and a family that adores them just as they are — this is the kind of love story we dream about.
Congratulations to Lucy, Kirk, and the McNeese family. Forever looks pretty perfect on you.

Willow is ready for capture. She appears to be on the medium side and a shepherd mix. She is terrified if people come close, but has shown zero aggression.

‼️UPDATE: DPA IS ABLE TO TAKE. ALL ARE SAFE‼️
‼️WE NEED YOUR HELP, URGENTLY!‼️
‼️TEMP FOSTER IS OKAY TO KEEP THE PUPPIES UNTIL OLD ENOUGH TO SEPARATE FROM RUBY AND THEN SHE WILL ADOPT HER! PUPPIES NEED FOSTERS FOR WHEN THEY ARE OLD ENOUGH TO LEAVE HER IN ABOUT 3-5 WEEKS!‼️
We have some big news...
Monday night our team went out and captured Ruby and her 11 puppies. Ruby’s devoted Good Samaritan, who has been trying for months to get her safe, has opened her home temporarily to this family of 12.
If you don’t remember Ruby’s story: months ago, her Good Samaritan reached out for help capturing her, but our team was stretched too thin to assist at the time. Last month she reached out again, Animal Control had no luck either. We set up a trap and camera, but Ruby didn't appear for two weeks. When she finally did, it was clear she had puppies.
Her Good Samaritan later discovered them under a shed in someone’s backyard. Sadly, when no one showed interest in fostering after our multiple pleas, the homeowner put up a sign trying to sell the puppies... only 2–3 weeks old. It is recommended puppies stay with mom until at least 6 weeks old. That’s when we knew we had to act.
Ruby and her babies were covered in fleas. We bathed each puppy, and Ruby, even after everything she’s endured, let us bathe her too. She’s as sweet as can be, giving our volunteers kisses of thanks and looking so relieved to finally be safe.
But here’s the urgent part: this setup is only temporary. We typically never capture without a rescue and foster lined up, but this was an emergency. Right now, we are begging for a rescue and puppy fosters to step up.
💛 We even have a generous donation ready to support the rescue that can take them in.
👉 Please help us find a safe place for Ruby and her 11 puppies. Share, foster, or connect us with a resce. Every effort matters.
If you can foster, please email us at capture@duckteam6.org

Sweet momma even walks well on a leash.
Is there an update? The temp foster is adopting Ruby? Has anyone reached out to the love pit 🤷🏻♀️
Can you help us cover Mochi’s $581.75 vet bill? 🐾💙
Look who’s checking in — it’s Woody, now Mochi! After just over a week in foster care, this sweet boy’s eyes are lighting up again. He’s already soaking up attention, enjoying car rides, and rolling happily in the yard.
Mochi has come a long way, but he still has a few challenges. Crate anxiety has been tough, so his vet prescribed medication to help him adjust. During his first visit we learned:
✔️ He’s heartworm free (yay!)
✔️ He has an ear infection, now being treated
✔️ Possible hip dysplasia and x-rays were taken to see severity.
Between vaccines, testing, and treatment, his visit came to $581.75. Your gift will go directly toward covering this bill and ensuring Mochi gets the care he needs.
Every donation — big or small — makes a difference for this sweet boy who’s finally getting his chance at a happy, healthy life.

I love the quality of their slip lead. Definitely a great product!
“How much longer will this take?”
“Why aren’t you moving faster?”
We’ll be honest—our Capture Team is struggling right now. We are stretched thin, exhausted, and desperately searching for foster homes.
Right now we have four active cases, which means 4 adult dogs and 11 puppies—15 dogs total— waiting for safe places to land. This is the side of rescue that most people never see. Everyone wants us to work miracles, but the truth is: without fosters, we cannot move forward.
On top of jobs, families, and everyday stress, our volunteers are pouring everything they have into these dogs. But until fosters step up, we are having to pause on taking new cases.
We need your help. Please:
🐾 Share this post
🐾 Interact to boost visibility
🐾 Email us if you can open your home to one of these street dogs.
Every share matters. Every comment matters. And every foster saves a life. Ruby's family, Willow, Sadie and Gator are counting on us.

‼️UPDATE: GATOR HAS BEEN CAUGHT BY ANIMAL CONTROL. WE ARE WORKING ON TAGGING HIM AND PULLING HIM ONCE HIS STRAY HOLD IS UP. WE HAVE A FOSTER READY FOR HIM‼️
‼️CLARIFICATION FROM GOOD SAMARITAN - she can still get in and out of backyard. This is a developing situation still so we are sharing what we know THE HOMEOWNER HAS LISTED THE PUPPIES AS FREE. THIS IS INCREDIBLY URGENT. IF YOU CAN FOSTER, PLEASE EMAIL US
Duck Team 6 I shared this post a few days ago, before Ruby was rescued. And today a man commented on my post saying that he would like to adopt Ruby. I know that y’all said that the lady that is currently fostering her is going to adopt her. But I just wanted to check with you and make sure that is still the plan, because if not, then I can tell this man to fill out an adoption application. Please let me know what to do. 😊
‼️UPDATE: GATOR HAS BEEN CAUGHT BY ANIMAL CONTROL. WE ARE WORKING ON TAGGING HIM AND PULLING HIM ONCE HIS STRAY HOLD IS UP. WE HAVE A FOSTER READY FOR HIM‼️
‼LONG-TERM COMMITTED FOSTER NEEDED ‼
We were contacted about a little dog named Gator who has been staying right next to a very busy intersection for a very long time. Some reports say that he has been there since last October. The land he is on will be developed soon and we need to get this guy to safety. We cannot help him until he has a foster in place to take him in. Please help us help him.
PLEASE EMAIL CAPTURE@DUCKTEAM6.ORG IF YOU CAN FOSTER.

‼️UPDATE: GATOR HAS BEEN CAUGHT BY ANIMAL CONTROL. WE ARE WORKING ON TAGGING HIM AND PULLING HIM ONCE HIS STRAY HOLD IS UP. WE HAVE A FOSTER READY FOR HIM‼️
I live in Weatherford and have been helping with this guy. I thought we already had a long-term foster lined up?  He is so cute. Thank you duck team six for helping out with this guy. I was the one who originally contacted you, but I’m glad you were able to help after Tracy contacted you. 
Do you know his approximate size? He looks very petite. However, that may just be the photo.

LONG-TERM COMMITTED MATERNITY FOSTER AND 501C3 REGISTERED RESCUE NEEDED!
Remember Ruby in Grand Prairie?
Well, we had a trap set out for a few weeks to see if she would show up and she never did. Fast forward to this morning. She has been located and has had 11 puppies under a shed. The babies are covered in fleas but are not old enough to be separated from mom.
Animal Control has not had luck trying to trap her previously and we agreed to help this girl. We will not leave her and her puppies behind, but we desperately need your help. She needs your help.
We will donate $750 to the rescue able to bring this family in.
‼️If you can help, please email us at capture@duckteam6.org‼️

‼️Long Term Foster Needed‼️
It is still Willow!
For over a month, Willow has been seen in Rockwall County. When Good Samaritans first saw her, she was very thin, likely from nursing puppies. Puppies have not been seen with her or in the area. With consistent feeding, she is slowly gaining weight and looking healthier.
Willow is still very skittish and does not let anyone get close, but she has not shown any aggression. Unfortunately, she doesn’t always pay attention to cars when crossing the street, which is a big concern of ours. She deserves a second chance at safety and love.
We are urgently seeking a long term foster to help Willow begin her journey off the streets. We have secured a rescue, but still need a foster. Will you be the one that can change her life?
Please email capture@duckteam6.org if you can help.

🚨🚨 LOST DUCK DOG ALUM ALERT🚨🚨
JUKE IS STILL MISSING! PLEASE REPORT ANY SIGHTINGS!
We have just received word that one of oldest alumni, Duck Dog Juke, escaped his home in Pleasant Grove (Dallas - zip code 75217). He was last seen on Thursday, 9/11 near the intersection of Jim Miller Rd and Seco Blvd. He has been reported as lost to DAS, Pawboost, Nextdoor, and local Facebook groups. Juke is microchipped and was wearing a collar with ID tags when he escaped.
Juke is fearful but not aggressive. It's unlikely he will approach a stranger so if you see him, please call 214-893-4337 or 214-557-3928.
These are older photos of him (from 2013-2015) as he was adopted in 2015, so he has a bit more grey in his fur now. Juke's family is in crisis at the moment, with Juke's mom in the hospital with complications from cancer, and hasn't had much time to search.
Please, if you see him, reach out to us and let us know. Juke is a senior dog who is not familiar with the neighborhood outside his immediate block and hasn't been on the streets in over a decade.
Thank you in advance!

✨ Meet Riggs! ✨
Not long ago, this tiny puppy was huddled under a dumpster, scared and alone, with an injured paw. His future was uncertain, until you stepped in. Because of your kindness and donations, Riggs received the care he desperately needed, and today… he’s an official Duck Dog! 🦆💛
Riggs’ resilience is nothing short of inspiring. In just days, he went from a frightened street pup to a little love bug who melts in your arms. His goofy antics bring smiles to everyone he meets, and his gentle, calm spirit is rare for a puppy his age.
He loves other dogs, soaks up every bit of affection, and now asks to be held like it’s his favorite place in the world. 🐾💕
Riggs has already overcome so much. What he needs now is the final piece of his story... a forever family to love him as much as he loves back. Could that be your family? Submit an adoption application through our website! He will be ready for his forever home soon 🥰

We are very interested, I’m going to put in an application here shortly. We do have a senior dog that we just adopted as well as as a baby and a young child. Do we happen to know maybe what sort of mix he is predominantly? He looks so sweet. 🥹
I love himssss
‼️LONG-TERM FOSTER STILL NEEDED‼️
It's still Sadie! You may remember we caught one of her puppies on Sunday, Riggs, after we noticed he was injured. Sadie still needs a place to land! 😭
On the streets of Dallas, this beautiful shepherd mix momma has spent too many nights curled up under semi-trucks, searching for scraps of food and a safe place to rest. She’s had several litters in her young life, but never the comfort of a warm bed, gentle hands, or a family of her own.
Despite the hardships she’s faced, she hasn’t given up hope. She watches people with soft, curious eyes—wanting to trust, wanting to be loved. She deserves so much more than the dangerous streets and the constant struggle to survive.
She’s been a mother over and over, but she’s never had someone to be a mother to her. We are desperate to find her a foster home where she can finally learn what it feels like to be safe, cared for, and cherished. A quiet space, patience, and love is all she needs to begin her journey from street survivor to beloved companion.
If you have room in your home and your heart, please consider fostering this sweet mama. You won’t just be saving her life—you’ll be giving her the chance to finally know what it means to belong.
💛 Can you open your home to her? 💛

LOOK WHO GOT CAUGHT
It's Woody!
Early this morning, our capture team loaded up their gear and headed to Dallas with just one goal in mind... Finally getting this guy off of the streets.
He will be scanned for a microchip and reported as Found to Dallas Animal Services. If an owner cannot be located, he will officially be a Duck Dog and available for adoption through us once he's ready!
Happy Tails, Woody!

A BIG thank you to Duck Team 6 for transitioning Woody from the streets of our neighborhood. Such superstars!! 🙏🏻♥️ Felt such joy this morning to see this sweet boy safe in a foster home with wonderful people who will help get him ready for a forever home (if no owners step up). His new journey starts here!
They're so scared in that moment & there's no way to explain, this is the last worst day. After this it's all gravy on the Duck Team
Yay for Woody!!! Great job!! ❤️❤️

Cutest lil pumpkin!!
From the bottom of our hearts - THANK YOU SO MUCH for helping Duck Team 6 raise over $40,000 for North Texas Giving Day!!!
While we didn't quite reach our goal, we are thrilled with the end result! We know that with today's rising costs, many people are having to tighten budgets and that includes charitable giving. We cannot express how grateful we are to each and every one of you. DT6 supporters are the best - we love you! Semper Woof!
