Story
Please contact Kady Hammer (KadyH@luckydoganimalrescue.org) for more information about this pet.Young boy ISO love and fresh start!COLTON Come meet Colton and other great adoptable dogs this Sunday (8/16) from 12-3 pm at the PetSmart in Falls Church (6100A Arlington Blvd, Falls Church, VA 22044)! Estimated Age: 3 years as of June 2026 Best Guess for Breed: Shepherd/Malinois mix Approximate Weight: 49 lbs Gets Along With: Colton does well with other dogs! We have tested him with some of the cats at the shelter, and he did not seem particularly interested in chasing or pouncing on the cat. While this is a positive sign that Colton could live with a cat, he/she has not done so to our knowledge. We haven't seen him with kids and are happy to discuss integration techniques with any potential adopters! Currently available for adoption in the DC area! Check out cute photos and videos of Colton on our foster Instagram account: @luckydogrescues View more cute photos of Colton here: https://flic.kr/s/aHBqjBU9TT; Check out these videos of Colton:https://youtu.be/vdXH_XBNHfk, https://www.youtube.com/shorts/iAqlI3UmaJ4?feature=share, and https://youtu.be/wFFbTPUP3Eo. Colton is Looking For: His forever home! Colton wants nothing more than to trot through the world with all the confidence of a well-loved dog. Thing is, he hasn't seen nearly enough of the world yet and right now he's shy. He needs extra loving and patient adopters who will help him explore at his pace, and a welcoming resident dog who will show him how to dog. What My Foster Says About Me: Colton is a really funny and silly dog. He absolutely loves to play and enjoys running around. Once Colton gets to know other dogs, he loves being 'one of the dogs' and thrives in the companionship of other dogs. Just like with dogs, Colton needs a little bit of time to warm up to people before feeling comfortable, but eases in quickly. He has learned to sit, crate, and if you pat your chest and say 'Colton hug' he will jump up and wrap his arm around your neck. Love it! He has excellent house manners and will ask to go out if he needs to. If you are looking for a goofy and loving addition to your home, Colton is the dog for you. He loves cuddling up by the tv and will definitely watch cartoons if it’s playing! Loves going for walks and running and playing in big open areas. He loves giving hugs and kisses. He can be a bit shy once you get to know him but once he opens up he’s great, same goes with other pups. Overall he is a very sweet boy who just wants cuddles! TO ADOPT: The adoption fee for this dog is $460, which includes the cost of routine vetting, including vaccinations and neuter. If you are interested in adopting, please complete the Adoption Questionnaire online at bit.ly/adoptaluckydog . Lucky Dog Animal Rescue does our best to provide accurate information about the dogs we have for adoption. That said, we cannot make any guarantees about age, breed or temperament. Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken. All of our dogs are working on their crate training. August 24, 2026, 12:08 am
