My story

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

Courtesy post for Bug:
" Meet Bug – The Adventure-Loving Snuggle Pro
Age: 9 ½ (almost 10!)
Good with: Adults, dogs, cats
Needs: Kid-free home
Hi there, I’m Bug! I may be a senior pup, but don’t let that fool you—I still have plenty of pep, silliness, and zest for life. I’m the perfect mix of goofy adventurer and devoted couch snuggler. Whether we’re going on hikes, taking long walks, cruising in the car, or curling up to watch TV together for hours, I’m happiest being right by your side.
I’ve lived happily with other dogs—big and small—and with proper introductions, I get along just fine. I’ve mostly lived with female dogs but could do well with a boy too. And cats? I LOVE cats… even when they aren’t quite as thrilled about my enthusiasm!
I’ve been in my current home for nearly 6 years, and my family absolutely adores me. The decision to rehome me has come with a very heavy heart and lots of tears, but everyone wants what’s best for my well-being. I love being the center of attention, and while my family’s new human kids are wonderful, the unpredictability of little ones makes me anxious and sometimes reactive. It’s no one’s fault—I just need a calm home where I can relax and feel safe.
I’m housetrained, crate trained, well-mannered, and truly the best buddy for all your adventures. I still get the zoomies, love my toys, soak up sunshine in the yard, and never turn down cuddle time. I can be a little anxious at the vet and need a muzzle and some pre-appointment calming meds, but once I’m home, I’m all love and snuggles again.
I’m looking for someone who wants a loyal, devoted best friend to spend my golden years with. A home with no children and a quiet environment is exactly what I need to feel safe, loved, and like the center of someone’s world again.
If you’re searching for a cuddly, quirky, sweet old soul with plenty of love left to give… Bug just might be your guy."

We are a rescue that is dependent on volunteers as we do not have a physical building. We rent space at a kennel in Upperco, Md. If you would like to meet one of our dogs please contact us to make arrangements. Thanks!

We have a particular commitment to pit bulls and aim to raise awareness about the breed, help those in need, and educate the public:
•We seek to promote this lovely yet unfairly maligned breed as the sweet, intelligent, affectionate, and people-oriented dogs they are.
•We assume stewardship over their well-being and strive to make this world a better place for them.
•We serve as a resource and/or liaison for shelters, individuals, and the community at large, advocating for any animal in harm's way.
•We also function in an advisory role for private citizens who seek assistance and guidance in better caring for their pets.

We are a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.

Please help us help the animals!
