My story

Oh, how we wish Posy could tell us about her past!  This little Beagle mix (best guess) was found on the reservation and we can tell that life (or the humans in it) had not treated her too kindly.  Posy lights up in the company of dogs, but takes a bit of time to warm up to people.  Being part of a dog pack gives her confidence and allows her to bond with her human(s) in due time.  She loves to snuggle with dogs of all sizes, but prefers to roughhouse with the ones closer to her size.  Posy does well in the crate during the night and loves morning snuggles in bed with her foster mom.  In true Hound fashion, Posy can be quite vocal, particularly if there are a lot of comings and goings in the house.  Therefore she will do best in a quiet, all-adult household; ideally with a retired person or couple.  At LEAST ONE doggie sibling is a must for her, as is a fenced-in backyard so she can run her morning zoomies.  Yes, Posy is a project dog, requiring lots of love and patience, but, boy, when this little girl comes out of her shell and starts greeting you with a wiggling butt and puppy kisses, she will light up your life!

More about this rescue

We are a 501c3 volunteer group of animal lovers and advocates. The efforts of Paws On The Ground started with an advocacy group to reduce puppy mill commerce which grew into a foster based rescue to help animals from high kill shelters as with taking in the unwanted, displaced and abandoned.
We help facilitate transport, vetting, and the adoption of our rescued canines into their adoptive homes. When an animal comes into rescue there are a team of volunteers working together to bring an animal into safety and eventually a better life.
We assist communities with overpopulation issues by awarding scholarships for spaying & neutering to prevent more unwanted litters to the individuals who need help and are surrendering animals to rescue. We help animals locally, from surrounding states and also over seas.
The animals are the clients and the center of Paws On The Ground..
