My story

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

Current Location: Union Bridge, MD

Meet Davy

Davy is an eighteen month old sweetheart with a gentle soul and a striking white knight look that turns heads wherever he goes. He is friendly, curious, loyal, and incredibly loving once he feels safe. There is something special about him that makes people slow down and lean in.

Energy and Personality
Davy enjoys regular exercise and enrichment. He loves long walks, active play, and spending time with his people. He is affectionate and soft natured. He may cower briefly with new experiences, but trust comes quickly. Each day he grows more confident, playful, and relaxed.

Training and Behavior
Davy is house trained, leash trained, and crate trained. He can be crated with no issues or left with the crate door open and access to a pen. He does not try to escape. He is working on sit, wait, and down. He comes running for kissy noises. Hot dogs and cheese are his idea of luxury paychecks. Praise works just as well. He melts for chin and neck scratches.

Social Life
Davy is good with other dogs and new people. He enjoys interaction and does well in social settings once he settles. He bonds closely with his people and wants to be part of daily life.

His Story
Davy came from a full shelter where he spent at least six months of his short life. He arrived underweight and worn down, but his spirit stayed intact. Despite his past, he is trusting, forgiving, and ready to love.

Best Home Fit
Davy is looking for someone who wants a loyal companion and is willing to meet him with patience and kindness. His trust does not take long to earn, and once you have it, he is all in.

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.
