Story
Meet Dolly! This sweet little beagle has been stealing hearts since her arrival to Miri's Haven. Dolly’s life was turned upside down when her beloved owner passed away and she was left in the home with 25 other animals. Sadly, it was several weeks before help arrived, and she's still quietly carrying the trauma of that time. But even with all she’s been through, Dolly’s gentle, soulful spirit is already shining through. Dolly is super smart and very into food, so she adores enrichment puzzles filled with snacks. She loves being around her foster family, including snuggling in their laps and sleeping in their bed. She enjoys exploring outdoors but is not leash-trained, so her forever family will need to have a home with a fenced-in yard. She loves curling up on cozy comforters and pillows, and sitting on items of furniture when she needs a better view of the goings on. Being the smart girl that she is, Dolly is a great communicator. She'll let you know if you're running late with her meal, wants you to let her inside, or needs a lift onto the bed. She's also great at telling you when she's uncomfortable (for example, she made it known that she doesn't like being alone in a dark room). Dolly gets the zoomies from time to time and it's so much fun to watch her fly around the house. She's great with other dogs and loves to play with them, so we're hoping to find her a home with at least one canine sibling. Dolly is deaf and has some trouble seeing, but she gets around well. She has some stiffness in her hind end and back legs, so she has a little trouble going up stairs and needs to be carried down them. Dolly is brave, sweet, and so deserving of the soft, loving retirement every senior dog should have. She is ready for love, stability, and a comfy couch to call her own - could it be yours? Dolly is approximately 10 years old and 15 lbs. Fostered in Manassas, VA Please apply at MirisHaven.org

Story
Waylon was found on a rural backroad.  He’s so gentle and great with everyone. He’s good with dogs, cats and kids. We think he is a Basset Hound mix because he has a long body like a Basset Hound. Waylon is a gentle giant with a heart of gold. While he’s on the larger side, he has a calm and easygoing demeanor that makes him a joy to be around.Waylon is great on a leash, rides well in the car, and enjoys simple pleasures like lounging outside or gazing out the window. He’s not overly energetic, which makes him an ideal companion for someone looking for a laid-back buddy to share life with. Originally from Mississippi, Waylon spent the last three years living outdoors at a no-kill shelter. Now, he’s ready for a cozy home where he can finally relax and be part of a loving family.If you're looking for a loyal, mellow, and affectionate friend, Waylon might just be your perfect match. Accuracy is not guaranteed; however, information provided is accurate to the best of our knowledge.  For more information on the pet, please send an email to info@aforeverhome.org June 16, 2025, 8:20 pm

Story
Stumpy-Bassett Hound/Labrador Retriever (Bassador) male, ~ 1-2 yr. (March 2024) Contact rescuebc@hotmail.com for application to adopt. Stumpy is living in a very rural area with a family that asked for help in finding him a new home. He's used to living a family life with children and loves the children. He would be best as an only dog. He's a mixed dog but a popular mix, called a Bassador. The Bassador temperament can vary a lot depending on whether they take after their Lab or Basset Hound parent more. Generally, they are sociable and loving. We are fortunate to know how Stumpy has done, living with a family. Bassadors love attention, especially from their favorite person. If you want a dog with a very unique look who’s loyal to a fault, the Bassador could be the dog for you! Stumpy's adoption fee is $350 to help cover the medical costs of getting ready for adoption. For our application, please email rescuebc@hotmail.com Include your location and a phone number for future communication.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.All of the animals posted on our site have been temperament tested. While not all are in the immediate area, once we have processed and approved your application, we will move the dog to our adoptive area for you to meet, greet and hopefully adopt. Sometimes we will have more than one application on a dog. That does not mean it automatically goes to another family but you should be aware of the fact that until you are approved and set up for the meet/greet.. the dog could get adopted by another applicant.NOTE- BUTCHIE IS LISTED AS A COURTESY FOR ANOTHER RESCUE ORGANIZATION. PLEASE SEE CONTACT INFO BELOW.Paws Crossed Dog Rescue email: pawscrossedinfo@yahoo.com Paws Crossed Dog Rescue serves the Eastern Panhandle of WV and nearby areas.  Please read ADOPTION INFO on the left side of our website to learn about the adoption application process. Butchey is a 2 1/2 -year old, neutered male, weighing in at around 35 pounds.  He's a good boy that likes to be active. He was lacking in confidence and social skills.  He has been in training for several months now and has done a great job !  He has learned to politely play with other dogs and make friends with many humans .  Butchey walks well on a leash and does well out in public.   A dog savvy household will be best for him. Continued training would be a plus. He can be in a home with other dogs. However we believe Butchey would do best in a home with an older, mature, stable, female canine.  We want him to maintain his newly acquired skills. If allowed, he can become overly attached to his human.  Butchey's currently still in a boarding / training facility due to a lack of fosters in rescue.   He will require a physical fence.  This is not negotiable.  Please read Adoption Info on the left side of our website. Email inquiries can be made to PawsCrossedDogRescue@yahoo.com   Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.February 26, 2025, 9:30 pm

Story
Doc was unfortunately returned to the rescue. This is Doc's updated bio as of 12/2024: Doc is a friendly, playful, and affectionate 4-year-old beagle mix with a heart of gold. He loves to be around people and is especially good with kids, making him an ideal family companion. His calm and gentle nature means he’s also fantastic with other dogs.. Whether it’s playing in the yard, lounging on the couch, or simply following you around, Doc loves to be close to his humans and thrives in a loving, interactive environment. Favorite Activities: &#226&#151&#143 Playtime: Whether it's a game of fetch, tug-of-war, or a good chase in the backyard, he loves staying active and having fun with his family. &#226&#151&#143 Cuddling: He’s also a big fan of snuggling up after a long day, often seeking out your lap or curling up beside you to relax. Training and Behavior: &#226&#151&#143 Potty-trained: Yes &#226&#151&#143 Good with commands: Doc knows basic commands like “sit,” “stay,” and “come,” though like many dogs, he occasionally gets distracted by new smells or exciting sights. &#226&#151&#143 Social: He’s social with both people and other dogs, making him a perfect companion for outings, dog parks, and playdates. Health: &#226&#151&#143 Neutered: He has been neutered and is up-to-date on vaccinations and preventative care. Ideal Home: Doc would thrive in a loving home where he can get plenty of attention, exercise, and cuddles. He would do well in a household with children or other dogs, as he’s always eager to make new friends and share the love.       ------------ Original Bio from June 2020  Doc Hudson is an adorable 4 month old puppy that is now the only puppy left from his litter mates. We have no idea what breeds he is mixed with or how much he will shed. At best guess he is a hound terrier mix who could grow to be anywhere from 40-80 pounds. Doc Hudson is great with all dogs and loves all people. He is the perfect combination of playful and affectionate and would do great in any home that will provide the training that all puppies need.

Story
Rex aka Liberty is the perfect pup balance of chill and playful. when he is settled. He loves sitting in his bed by the fireplace relaxing in the evening or curled up in a blanket next to the desk while his human is working. Rex also loves other playful, friendly dogs and enjoys lots of play wrestling and doggy kisses. Rex also loves belly rubs and he is a big snuggle bug who will show you his appreciation of your pets with sweet kisses and nuzzles. Rex is also blind and lived most of his life under a porch until he came to PetConnect. He is resilient and, somehow, still full of Joy. Rex has always been blind, and he manages beautifully. He learns new environments quickly, has radar-like hearing, and relies on his incredibly impressive sniiffer (nose). Rex's fosters report that his blindness is basically a non-issue, but we will be happy to provide support and resources for living with a blind dog to his adopter. Even though he has issues seeing, he does not require medications for his eyes. Since Rex is blind, he tends to grr or whine to let you know he is there. This happens around stairs, doors, and when he falls asleep, but as he gets more comfortable and confident, this goes away. He responds well to positive reinforcement and gentle patience and has already made much progress. Rex is so deserving of a safe, stable and loving new home. In return, He will provide so much love and loyalty that you will wonder how your ever lived without him. To learn more about Rex, email bhutcherson@petconnectrescue.org
