UPDATE: Walter Has Been Adopted — But His Journey Isn’t Over Yet

We are thrilled to share that Walter, our handsome 6-year-old Lab mix, has officially found his forever home. After being found as a stray on Lake Estates Drive and never reclaimed, Walter is no longer waiting—he’s now settling into a loving home where he can finally feel safe and cherished.

While Walter’s adoption is wonderful news, his medical journey continues.

Medical Update

Walter tested heartworm positive, and thanks to the lifesaving support of Rockwall PAWS, his heartworm treatment is underway. Heartworm treatment is a long and costly process, requiring ongoing veterinary care, medications, and follow-up monitoring to ensure the best outcome.

How You Can Help

Even though Walter is adopted, donations are still urgently needed to help cover the costs of his heartworm treatment and to ensure we can continue providing lifesaving care for other heartworm-positive dogs who come through our doors.

Your support:

• Helps Walter complete his treatment safely

• Allows Rockwall PAWS to step in for future dogs in need

• Directly saves lives

Every donation—no matter the size—makes a meaningful difference.

Walter’s happy ending was made possible because of community support, compassion, and generosity. Thank you for continuing to be part of his story and helping other dogs receive the care they deserve.

Adopt. Donate. Share. Together, we can keep giving dogs like Walter the second chances they need.
