Bought these back when Nintendo still had them. Been holding on to them as backups but thought id test the waters. I have more blue ones than the other colors. Would like $170 for the blue. $190 for the white/red and $240 for the green zelda one. Only took them out to charge them and update to latest firmware. Buyer pays shipping in mainland US only. No games included although i do have quite a few new sealed copies of some triple a titles I can sell too. These systems come with their sd card, charger, ar cards and a stylus. Will test them before shipping them and record a video for each sale if buyer would like.

🚨KIWI, PINEAPPLE, & STRAWBERRY SCHEDULED FOR EUTHANASIA 8/18 @ 11 AM FOR MEDICAL🚨

💔 These three tiny 3 week old puppies urgently need a local foster and rescue.

Kiwi, Pineapple, and Strawberry have already overcome fleas, ticks, dehydration, and weakness, and they’ve reached a big milestone: they’re now eating gruel from a bowl! ❤️

They are still dealing with generalized hair loss, crusting, redness and inflamed skin. They were initially diagnosed with pyoderma secondary to fleas/ticks and have been treated with Clavamox, Revolt for flea/tick prevention, fluids for dehydration, and multiple medicated baths. Unfortunately, their skin has not improved, and the underlying cause of their dermatitis is still unknown.

On 8/14, they were given Convenia, but they continue to have alopecia affecting their tails, noses, and all four limbs. They now need further diagnostics and specialized veterinary care that DAS cannot provide.

They are currently eating normally, and their fecal, Giardia, and parvo tests were negative. These babies need a dedicated foster & rescue who can continue their medical care, monitor their progress, and give them the safe environment they need to heal and grow.

Please share to help us find them heroes in time.

🚨ATHENNA SCHEDULED FOR EUTHANASIA TODAY 8/12 @ 1PM!🚨

Athenna must have a HOLD by 1PM today 8/12 or she will be euthanized. There will be no extensions. She needs a local adopter or a rescue with a local foster to save her life. Pledges are also desperately needed to help a rescue.

Athenna is one of those dogs who just lights up when she gets attention. She is smart, eager to learn, and absolutely beautiful. When volunteers have been able to spend time with her, she has shown a happy, wiggly personality and a real desire to interact with people.

She has been at BARC since June after originally coming in as a stray and was adopted on 6/16. Sadly, she was later returned with an owner-requested euthanasia request, and now she is back in the shelter with her life on the line.

Athenna has been getting increasingly stressed in her kennel and can become overexcited on leash, but she has also shown that she can walk nicely, settle in her kennel, and greet people with a wagging tail and happy demeanor. She is a smart, active girl who needs someone willing to give her structure, training, exercise, and a chance to decompress outside of the shelter.

She is also dealing with diarrhea that appears to possibly be stress-related and is currently being treated with Panacur and metronidazole.

Athenna has already lost one home. Please don’t let her lose her life too. She deserves someone who will see the smart, beautiful, loving dog underneath the shelter stress and give her the chance she needs. 💔

IN GRAVE DANGER - EUTH COMMAND

Braxton is not the dog you see in the shelter. The dog you see now — trembling, bloodshot eyes, refusing to leave his kennel — is a dog whose world ended overnight. For four years he was a family dog, a gentle, goofy, affectionate pitty with a blocky head and a heart that lived entirely for his people. He loved their children. He loved other dogs. He was perfectly housetrained, never had accidents, learned tricks just to make them smile, and his favorite command — the one he showed off proudly — was “cuddle.”

He was their dog. Their companion. Their shadow. And when they moved and left him behind, Braxton didn’t understand. He still doesn’t. He is shut down because he is grieving. He is terrified because he has never known life without his family. He is not aggressive — he is heartbroken. And he is running out of time.
Braxton has one day left. One day for someone to see past the fear to the dog underneath — the dog his family described as loving, social, affectionate, playful, gentle, and eager to please. The dog who slept beside them, walked calmly with them, rode in the car with them, and curled up on the couch because that was his favorite place in the world.

Braxton is still the dog who:

• lived peacefully with adults, children, and other dogs
• was friendly and outgoing with unfamiliar dogs
• was perfectly housetrained with zero accidents
• knew “sit,” “lay down,” “paw,” “high five,” “wait,” and “cuddles”
• loved car rides, fetch, tug, and being close to his people
• allowed bathing, brushing, nail trims, and handling with ease
• spent most of his time where his family was — happiest at their side

This fearful shelter version of Braxton is temporary. It is the result of trauma, not temperament. In a calm, quiet home with patient adults, he will decompress, breathe again, and become the dog he truly is: a loving, loyal, gentle companion who just wants to belong to someone again.

He has so little time. Please don’t let a perfect family dog die because he is too heartbroken to show his true self in a cage.

BRAXTON, Id 261074, @4 Yrs. old, 50 lbs., Male
Queens ACC, Medium Mixed Breed, Brown
Owner Surrender Reason: 7/29/26 - Moving
Shelter Assessment Rating: New Hope Only
Recommendations:
No children under 13
Place with a New Hope Partner
Medical Behavior Rating: 3. Yellow

AT RISK MEMO:
Braxton is on the at-risk list due to behavior concerns. In the care center and during intake, Braxton has displayed intense fearful behavior, including growling, baring his teeth, thrashing, and was control poled out of the police car. Braxton continues to struggle to acclimate to the shelter environment despite efforts to minimize stress and allow him time to decompress, remaining extremely shutdown in care. Medically, Braxton is Otitis, Mild dental disease, Superficial lesions to hind paws.

Braxton was surrendered into care as a stray, so his past behavior in a home environment is unknown. Braxton has not acclimated well to the shelter environment and is not allowing for handling to be removed from the kennel. During his intake, Braxton began growling and baring teeth when staff attempted to remove him from the police car. Due to his behavior, a control pole was used to bring him into the building safely. Since his intake, Braxton has not allowed handlers to remove him from the kennel for walks or interaction. When leashed, he begins thrashing and flailing on his own accord; no pressure is applied by handlers. Due to noted concerns, we recommend that he be placed in an adult-only home through a New Hope partner, who can provide any necessary behavior modification (force-free, positive reinforcement-based) and re-evaluate behavior in a stable home environment before placement into a permanent home.

With unfamiliar dogs both on and off leash, Braxton is friendly and outgoing. Braxton has had no experience with cats but is said to be friendly and outgoing with other animals. Braxton considers his food and toys items of value but his family never attempted to touch or take these items from him so it is unknown if he would resource guard. Braxton has never bitten anyone. He is housetrained. His energy level is high.

Other Notes:
Braxton knows he is to relieve himself outside on walks and has never had an indoor accident. He can be anxious when left alone, but has no other reported behavior concerns. Braxton is unbothered if held/restrained, disturbed while sleeping, if he is startled, removed from furniture, if his paws are touched or his collar is grabbed.

Has this dog ever had any medical issues?: No
Medical Notes: No known allergies or medical concerns
Last vet check: 3/23/2025

For a New Family to Know:
Braxton is described as a loving, social, affectionate, and lazy couch potato who can also be very active and playful. He spends most of his time where his people are. Braxton allows his family to bathe, brush, and trim his nails. He knows the cues "sit", "lay down", "paw", "high five", "wait", and "cuddles". He has never been crated. Braxton pulls very little on leash during his 10 – 25 minute walks that he enjoyed going on 3 or 4 times a day.

BEHAVIOR NOTES

Date of intake: 7/29/2026
Means of surrender (length of time in previous home): Stray; history unknown.

SHELTER ASSESSMENT SUMMARIES:
Date of assessment: 8/3/2026

Summary: Braxton has not acclimated well to the shelter environment and is not allowing for minimal handling. During his intake, Braxton escalated to growling and baring teeth while loose in the police car. Due to his behaviors, he had to be control-poled to be brought into the building safely. When attempting to leash him to be removed from the kennel after being given a few days to decompress, Braxton began thrashing and flailing once leashed. Handlers did not apply any pressure, but Braxton used his front paws and began pulling down on the lead, applying pressure himself. He began growling when handlers used a hook to remove the lead to end the attempt out of concerns for his stress levels. Due to these concerns, a handling assessment is not able to be conducted.

PLAYGROUP NOTES – DOG TO DOG SUMMARY
Not conducted.

ENRICHMENT NOTES

8/2/26: An attempt was made to remove Braxton from kennel. The handler will open the door and Braxton will begin to growl softly with a lowered head and whale eye. The handler drapes the leash over his neck but the moment the leash is on him he will begin to thrash despite there not being any pressure on the leash. He will grab at it with his paws and pull it down causing it to tighten so the handler will move the leash further into the kennel to loosen it. He will then stop thrashing but continue to growl and approach the front of the kennel. The handler will then attempt to use the hook to remove the leash. He fixates on it and growls so a second handler tosses cheese in front of him. He is interested in the food so that is used to lure Braxton out of the leash instead of using the hook to remove it. His kennel is secured and he will continue to growl as the handler exits the room.

8/1/26 (KSV): Braxton is asleep curled up in the center of his kennel. He will open his eyes and look up at the handler as they slide in some treats. He looks at the treats and then puts his head back down while looking out through the door as the handler walks away.

7/31/26: Braxton is reported to not want to cross over for cleaning due to how fearful he is.

INTAKE BEHAVIOR:
Date of intake: 7/29/2026
Summary: growling, baring teeth, control poled.

MEDICAL BEHAVIOR:
Date of initial: 7/30/2026
Summary: double leashed and walks out of kennel, some thrashing on neck lead, some growling. Sedated for exam.

BEHAVIOR DETERMINATION: New Hope Only

Recommendations:
No children (under 13)
Place with a New Hope partner

Recommendations comments:

No children (under 13): Due to Braxton's potential for defensive escalations and handling sensitivity, we feel that an adult-only home would be most beneficial at this time.

Place with a New Hope partner: Braxton has not acclimated well to the kennel environment and has allowed only minimal handling since intake. We recommend placement with a New Hope partner who can provide any necessary behavior modification (force-free, positive reinforcement-based) and re-evaluate behavior in a stable home environment before placement into a permanent home.

Potential challenges:
Handling/touch sensitivity
Fearful/potential for defensive aggression

Potential challenges comments:

Handling/touch sensitivity | Fearful/potential for defensive aggression: During his intake, Braxton was growling and baring teeth at staff when attempting to remove him from the police car; he was then control poled. When attempting to remove him from the kennel, Braxton began thrashing and using his front paws to pull down on the lead. He began growling when handlers used a hook to remove the lead.

TO BE EUTHANIZED 8/8/26 IN NYC
Rangor is a family dog who doesn’t understand why his life disappeared overnight. A tri color boy with the gentle face of a lab and the sturdy charm of a rottie, he lived happily with five adults, two kids, three dogs, and even a cat (okay, he wasn’t a fan of the cat — but hey!) He was playful with strangers, friendly with children, tolerant with the dogs in his home, affectionate with his people, and happiest when he could be right where the family was.
But when the landlord said “no pets,” Rangor lost everything. Now he’s in a loud, overwhelming shelter, pancaking on the floor, too scared to walk, too anxious to understand what’s happening. And when they finally get him out of his kennel, he mounts handlers — not out of dominance, but out of panic, confusion, and the desperate need for comfort. This behavior disappears in a home where he feels safe, where there is a comfortable routine and the gentle rhythm of family life. What won’t disappear is his sweetness, his loyalty, his love for people, his goofy joy, and his desire to be someone’s dog again.

He is on the list to die. And he is a very, very good boy. And that’s the bottom line!

Rangor is still the dog who:
• lived peacefully with kids, adults, and multiple dogs
• was playful, friendly, and outgoing with strangers
• loved car rides, cuddling, and being near his people
• knew “sit,” “stay,” and “paw”
• enjoyed squeaky toys, meat treats, and long walks
• was crate trained, housetrained, and affectionate
• never hurt a living soul and loved his life.

Rangor isn’t failing — he’s drowning in fear. He needs a home, not a kennel. He needs people, not concrete. He needs someone to see past the shelter stress to the incredible dog underneath.

He has been a good boy his whole life. Please don’t let him lose it now. Rangor deserves to live, to breathe, to walk without fear, and to go home again. Experienced fosters and adopters, hurry to help this boy live. Message our page for assistance.

RANGOR, Id 258701, @4 Yrs. old, 61 lbs., Male
Queens ACC, Large Mixed Breed, Tri-Color
Owner Surrender Reason: 7/16/26 – Landlord won’t allow
Shelter Assessment Rating: New Hope Only
Recommendations:
No children under 13
Place with a New Hope Partner
Medical Behavior Rating: 3. Yellow

AT RISK MEMO:
Ragnar is on the at-risk list due to behavior concerns. In the care center, Ragnar has shown fearful behavior, including reluctance to walk, pancaking, avoiding handlers, and has on multiple occasions mounted handlers incessantly making it difficult to walk him safely at times. Ragnar has shown improvement over time, and has become social with select staff, though he continues to become overwhelmed in busier environments. Medically, Ragnar has Otitis externa.

Ragnar was surrendered into care due to his previous owner due to landlord conflict. His previous family described him as a social and affectionate 4-year-old large dog. He is very active/playful and loved spending his time where his people are. He previously went on 3-4 walks a day for 30 minutes each with mild to moderate pulling. Ragnar loves going on car rides, loves having meat with his treats, and playing with squeaky toys. He was noted to guard his food from the other dogs in the home, would lunge at the resident cat, and was anxious when left alone in the home. During walks, he reacts to strangers, cats, small animals, large dogs, and small dogs by lunging and growling/Hard barking. During his stay in care, Ragnar has presented as fearful but quickly becomes aroused and starts persistently mounting handlers. He is also reluctant to return to the building after walks. Due to the concerns reported in the previous home and concerns observed in care, we recommend that Ragnar be placed with a New Hope placement partner who is able to provide an experienced adult-only foster home. A period of decompression is recommended to allow him to acclimate comfortably to his new environment; force-free, reward-based training only is advised when introducing Ragnar to new and unfamiliar situations. Consultation with a professional trainer/behaviorist is highly recommended for guidance to safely manage/modify any behavior Ragnar presents with outside of the care centers.

Ragnar will display heavy panting due to the warm weather but will otherwise maintain a relaxed body throughout the outing. Once this session is concluded, Ragnar will be brought back to the care center and returned to his kennel safely without any issues.

7/20 (pm): A canine rep reported that they were walking their own dog when they noticed another handler having difficulty coaxing Ragnar to walk. Rep offered assistance and the two staff members switched dogs. Ragnar was mildly pancaking between two cars and reluctant to walk or take treats. Handler waited until other dogs and people cleared the walk path and was able to lead Ragnar into the building through the conference room to avoid overwhelming stimuli. Once in the building, handler was able to navigate Ragnar back to kennel without further issue.

7/20/26: Ragnar is standing at the front of his kennel with a neutral body as handler approaches. He is able to be leashed with ease and is then taken to the play yard for playgroup. In the yard, he has a neutral body and low tail as he slowly explores around. He has no interest in treats or toys and does not interact with the handlers as much. He greets the other dog at the gate with a neutral body and then disengages. Please see dog to dog notes for more details. He is able to return back to his kennel with no issues.

7/19 (pm): ACS staff report that Ragnar was reluctant to return to his kennel after his evening walk.

07/19/26 (Assessment): Ragnar is at the front of his kennel as the handler approaches. he is leashed with ease and brought to the office. Initially, Ragnar is fearful, avoiding the handlers and ignoring any food offered to him. When he is collared and put on a drag leash, he roams around and starts eating food. He then mounts one of the handlers, but is redirected with chicken. He continues to attempt to mount, so he is returned to his kennel.

🚨LOLA & HER PUPPIES URGENTLY NEED OUT OF THE SHELTER🚨

7 year old Lola is doing exactly what a good mama should.. loving and protecting her four tiny puppies. Now this little family needs someone to protect them.

Lola is a gentle, affectionate girl who may be a little timid when she first meets you, but she warms up quickly with kindness. She loves gentle pets and attention, takes treats softly from your hand, and is so trusting that she’ll happily let you sit beside her in the kennel with her babies.

Her puppies, Lidia, Lucy, Lily, and Layla, are just 2-3 weeks old and rely on their mama for everything. Lola remains calm, attentive, and nurturing, making sure they stay close and safe. She has done her job beautifully. Now it’s our turn to help her.

A quiet foster home or rescue placement would give Lola the peaceful environment she needs to finish raising her puppies away from the stress of the shelter where they’re at risk of getting sick. This family deserves the chance to stay together, grow stronger, and eventually find loving homes.

IT’S A DAMN SHAME SHE WAS SHOT SHE’S STILL SO LOVING AND NOT ONE PERSON HAS OFFERED TO LOVE HER AND HELP HER 💔💔💔

We have posted misty over and over. This super sweet girl was shot by some horrible human and not one person has offered to help her. Even though humans have been cruel to her she does nothing but love back. Her leg is not getting better in the shelter nor will it bc she needs more medical than they can give in the shelter. Please we are begging can someone please come love this girl back and get her the help she needs!

WHY HAS NO ONE OFFERED TO COME HELP HER 💔🙏🏻😭 SHE NEEDS HELP NOW!
🚨IMMEDIATE RESCUE NEEDED 🚨

SWEET GIRL WITH GUNSHOT WOUND NEEDS SOME TLC 😢💜🙏🏻

Fort Worth Animal Care & Control

🔥RESCUE NEEDED🔥

Misty 61320092
4 years, 54 pounds

She came in as a stray non weight bearing on her right rear leg, has a puncture wound on it. She also has a couple possibly infected ruptured mammary masses. She was also covered in fleas. She was given flea/tick meds and is on pain meds and antibiotics.

She has been a nice gal 💕

🩺 Vet notes from x-ray viewing
Radiograph review - dog is reportedly non-weight bearing, lame on her right rear leg with a wound and purulent discharge near her hock.

Large metallic foreign body present in right hock. Calcaneus is fractured. Talus is not clearly visible on available views due to the metal density and positioning but likely also damaged. Soft tissue swelling and wound tract with pinpoint metallic fragments visible on the cranial aspect. Additional very small metal fragments present within the joint. Metallic foreign body is most likely a projectile based on size and shape.

Assessment: Gunshot wound to right hock with septic arthritis.

Plan: Repairing the fracture(s) within her hock is not within the spectrum of care that the shelter can provide. Realistically, with infection already present, amputation is likely to be required. Medical rescue needed for ongoing care including surgery and the recovery period.

Please SH@RE, PLEDGE, ADOPT or FOSTER!

🙏These dogs must be tagged (email sent by a committed Adopter or Rescue) asap.

💕Email: FWACCTag@fortworthtexas.gov
Write 'Last Call' and the animal number in the subject line.

❤️New fosters must first fill out the foster application: https://fortworthtexas.galaxydigital.com/agency/detail/?agency\_id=156289 must be in the DFW area

💙Adoptions must be done in person. The shelter cannot assist out of state adopters at this time.

TO BE EUTHANIZED 7/25/26 IN NYC
*** Pancakes is a Level 2 behavior dog! *** She is now falling apart in a cage, but not in life! This girl is a total sweetheart!

Pancakes should not be dying. She earned a Level 2 behavior rating, one of the highest scores the shelter gives — shy but friendly, warms up quickly, leaning in for pets, eager for snuggles. She is wonderful with people, gentle in handling, and treat motivated. There is nothing in her behavior that warrants losing her life.

But the kennel is destroying her.

Nearly 24 hours a day in a tiny box has pushed Pancakes into severe stress: hypersalivating until her face is soaked, licking the kennel walls, biting her water bowl, pulling it inside, panting heavily, trembling, and recently lunging on a walk — a panic response, not who she is. Outside the kennel she is loose bodied, affectionate, and seeking connection. Inside it, she is unraveling.

She is not failing. She is suffering.
]
Her real self — the one worth saving
• Level 2 behavior score — gentle, tolerant, easy.
• Shy but friendly — warms up fast, clown grin, tail wags.
• Loves pets and snuggles — leans in for affection.
• Treat motivated and eager to learn — ready for training.
• Loose bodied with handlers — soft, social, trusting.
• Great on leash in calm settings — ignores people and dogs.
• No bite history, no aggression pattern, no red flags.

Pancakes is a peach — a sweet, loving girl who simply cannot survive the confinement she’s trapped in. In a home, even a temporary one, every stress behavior would melt away. What would remain is the gentle, snuggly, playful and affectionate dog she truly is.

She should not die because she can’t endure a cage. She should not die because of the way she is housed!

Please, someone help Pancakes before the shelter takes away a life that deserves to be lived. Hurry and get off that sofa and MESSAGE OUR PAGE FOR ASSISTANCE.

What my friends at ACC say about me:
My history is a mystery and my friends here do not know much about me yet!
I would appreciate slow introductions to new people and places to help me feel safe.
I love getting pets and - you guessed it - snuggles!
I'm ready to learn! I need a patient person who has the time to work on training with me.

PLAYGROUP NOTES – DOG TO DOG SUMMAR Summary:: Due to entering the facility as a stray, there is no prior dog-to-dog history recorded.

7/17/26: Pancakes greets a novel male dog off leash through a barrier. Pancakes approaches the gate displaying a tense body and high tail while the novel male remains soft bodied, sniffing through the barrier and intermittently tapping his feet. Pancakes initially disengages, then reapproaches the barrier and barks several times toward the novel male, briefly startling him. The novel male remains at the gate without escalating while Pancakes continues displaying tense body language before choosing to walk away on his own.

07/13/26
Pancakes is introduced to a novel male while off leash. She does not immediately approach but will follow the handler towards the gate, initially avoiding the male while side-eyeing briefly in his direction as she walks by.

ENRICHMENT NOTES

7/16/26: It is reported via the whiteboard that Pancakes lunged at a volunteer walking them and did not want to walk due to reactiveness (reported by vol)

7/13/26: Pancakes is laying down in her kennel as the handler approaches. She comes forward to the front with a loose body as the handler unlocks the door. She is able to be leashed with ease, and she then attempts to pull towards the dogs in kennels while hard staring with a tense body. She is then taken to the play yard for playgroup. In the yard, she has a loose body as she approaches the handlers to receive pets and treats. She has a tense body as she greets the other dog at the gate. Please see dog-to-dog notes for more details. While returning returning back to her kennel, she pulls towards the dogs in the kennels while hard staring with a tense body before being placed back in her kennel with no issues.

7/11/26: Pancakes is noted to display a clown grin and heavy panting and salivating.

7/10: Pancakes has been observed to display a high level of kennel stress. She is hyper-salivating and coated in her saliva. An ACS also reported that she is biting her water bowl in the kennel. During the walk with that ACS, Pancake was noted to bark at other dogs during their walk.

7/9: Pancake is seen licking the kennel wall and would pause to pant heavily, mouth wide open, but her face is still pressed between the kennel bars and walls.

INTAKE BEHAVIOR:
Date of intake: 7/9/2026
Summary:: Shy but friendly

MEDICAL BEHAVIOR:
Date of initial: 7/9/2026
Summary: Alert and active, treat motivated, allowed for handling and tasks, very high energy in kennel.

BEHAVIOR DETERMINATION: Level 2

Recommendations:
No young children (under 5)
Recommend no dog parks

Recommendations comments:

No young children (under 5): Due to Pancake lunging at strangers and other dogs in walks, we recommend that she be placed in a home without young children at this time.

Recommend no dog parks: Due to Pancake's behavior in playgroup, we recommend he does not visit dog parks.

Potential challenges:
Anxiety
On-leash reactivity/barrier frustration
Kennel presence

Potential challenges comments:

Kennel presence/Anxiety: Pancakes began to display heavy panting and drooling in the care center. Managing her anxiety will require creating a calm environment, providing enrichment activities, and using stress-reducing techniques like puzzle toys and regular exercise. Please see handout on generalized anxiety.

On-leash reactivity/barrier frustration: Pancakes is noted to become reactive to dogs and strangers outside on walks - reported to lunge. Addressing this requires desensitization and counter-conditioning techniques. Gradually exposing her to these triggers at a distance while rewarding calm behavior. Please see the handout on On-leash reactivity/barrier frustration.
