My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Current Location: Catonsville, MD

Hello! My name is MJ!

MJ is a five month old hound mixed breed puppy who brings joy to every room. He loves toys, people, playtime, and any chance to interact. He is smart, eager to learn, and he picks up new skills fast. He has already started mastering potty training and basic tricks. He is playful, loving, and full of charm.

Energy and Personality
MJ has balanced puppy energy. He loves to run, chase toys, and enjoy bursts of play. He settles well after activity and enjoys being close to his people. His smart and curious nature makes him fun to teach and easy to engage.

Training and Behavior
MJ is doing well with potty training. He has started asking to go outside when he needs to go. If he cannot get outside in time he will use pee pads.
Crate comfort is still a work in progress. He likes the crate itself and often naps inside it. He feels anxious when the door closes. During his post neuter recovery he rested well when his leash was clipped to the crate bar with the door open. He is young and learning and he responds well to reward based training.

Social Life
MJ loves other dogs and enjoys playing with them. He loves meeting new people and thrives on attention and interaction. He would enjoy a home that includes playmates or frequent social time.

Special Traits
He learns fast and enjoys training sessions. He loves toys, chase games, and running. He is affectionate and seeks connection.

Best Home Fit
A fenced yard would be a great match for MJ because he loves to run and chase toys. He would do well with another playful dog or as the center of attention. He is still young so he needs continued training and clear routines. A family that enjoys an active puppy and likes to teach and engage will be a strong fit.

MEET AND GREETS

We primarily rely on meet & greets for potential adopters. Approved adopters may meet adoptable animals at the home of the animal's foster, or possibly in the adopter's own home.

More about this rescue


Operation Paws for Homes, Inc. rescues dogs of all breeds and ages from high-kill shelters reducing the numbers being euthanized daily. We provide foster homes where they can get the love and attention needed before finding their forever homes. Our organization provides pet adoption services in Virginia, Washington DC, Maryland, and parts of Southern Pennsylvania. Operation Paws for Homes, a 501(c)(3) organization, is 100% donor funded and could not save these dogs and fulfill their dreams of being united with their forever families, without the dedication of our incredible adopters, fosters, donors and volunteers. Sadly, without our help, all of these adoptable animals would face almost certain euthanasia - usually within days or hours of arriving at the shelter. Each year we take in hundreds of wonderful animals who were left at shelters by no fault of their own.
