Please contact Courtney Nobles (courtneyn@luckydoganimalrescue.org) for more information about this pet.young boy ready to play! FLY NEEDS A FOREVER HOME!!!! Come meet Fly and other great adoptable dogs this Sunday (11/16) from 12-3 pm at the PetSmart in Falls Church, VA (6100 - A Arlington Blvd, Falls Church, VA 22044)! Name: Fly Best Guess for Breed: Border collie mix Best Guess for Age: 1.5 years as of August 2025 SEX: Male Approximate Weight: 39 lbs Gets Along With: Other dogs! We haven't seen him with cats or kids but we are happy to discuss integration techniques with any potential adopters! Currently Living at: DC area foster home. Fly is Looking For: His forever family! This dog is a herding breed mix, and those dogs can run quite a bit. Fly might need a lot of just that - activity. Mere daily walks and/or time in the yard won't be enough. He is looking for more mental stimulation and enrichment. He told us he would love an opportunity to be one of those sporty dogs who does advanced obedience training, agility, or nose work! But he also wants down time and a cushy dog bed and snuggles after a fun day together!This awesome pup will be a great addition to an active home. What do you say? Is Fly the one who can keep up with you? What My Foster Says About Me: Fly continues doing well with me! He is energetic and fun-loving, but well-behaved. He loves meeting people during our walks; he gets especially excited when he sees women and kids. He likes men too and doesn't show any fear or hesitation, but he absolutely lights up when he sees women (he’s a real ladies man). He has also made quite a few dog friends in my neighborhood! His favorite dogs are about his size, like to play and have a lot of energy like him. I take him to the dog park regularly, where he burns off a lot of his energy. He is definitely a border collie who sometimes tries to herd other dogs that aren’t playing, but we’re working on the engage/disengage game and he's responding pretty well! He's generally great with other dogs, if he gets impatient and his herding instincts kick in, it’s just time for a break. He likes to stay close to me at home, but as he’s settled in he’s slowly giving me a little more space and trusting that I’m still there even if I’m in another room. He continues being very well behaved at home and has not destroyed anything. He only plays with and chews on his toys. He's an amazing dog, very smart, very athletic, and incredibly affectionate. He will be a great addition to any active family looking for an adventure buddy. Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken. All of our dogs are working on their crate training. TO ADOPT: The adoption fee for this dog is $460, which includes the cost of routine vetting, including vaccinations and spay/neuter.

We haven't seen him with cats or kids but we are happy to discuss integration techniques with any potential adopters! Currently Living at: Puerto Rico shelter - needs a foster or forever home in the DC area to get up here. Special adoption considerations: Dogs from Puerto Rico have a major transition to go through when they arrive and will need humans who are very committed to socialization. We think he would do best with either a resident dog or a family who can make sure he can go on walks regularly with other dogs, visit the dog park, or go to doggie daycare to learn the ropes.

He's eager to get his own humans in the DC area - he's a young boy and has so much to see and do. Long sniffy walks, romps with pup pals, and all the adventures his new family can dream up - yes, please! Dog school would be great, too, so he can show how super smart he is.

Come meet Roscoe and other great adoptable dogs this Sunday (11/9) from 12-3 pm at the PetSmart in Rockville, MD (5154 Nicholson Ln, Kensington, MD 20895)! Name: Roscoe Best Guess for Breed: Border collie mix Best Guess for Age: 1.5 years as of October 2025 SEX: Male Approximate Weight: 47 lbs Gets Along With: Other dogs! We haven't seen him with kids but we are happy to discuss integration techniques with any potential adopters! Currently Living at: DC area foster home Roscoe is Looking For: His forever home! Roscoe is in his prime as a young adult dog and eager to go, go, go - romps in parks and world exploration! That likely border collie in him (breed mixes are always a guess but he certainly has that BC look!) means he has a lot of energy and he can't wait to burn it all with his new family. He's got so much to offer - happy tail wags and the pep to all your days and love and loyal companionship. What do you say? Is Roscoe the one you can see by your side on all your adventures? What My Foster Says About Me: Great pup, very easy going and playful! He's good with other dogs, decent on leash for walks and jogging (still will need some work there), and has not had any accidents in the house (yet). After a little bit of whining, he settles in his crate. He is very athletic, pretty smart, and ready for adventure. And he was good with all the city things. He was curious about wildlife but easy enough to handle and is surely trainable (bonus he is food motivated) including for cool athletic tricks for example. He walks up to every door we pass - I think he wants to know if the grass is really greener on the other side of the fence. Good boy Roscoe, 14/10! Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken.

Story

Current Location: Korea 🇰🇷 ♡ 🧡 Meet Ma-eum A gentle soul learning to love again Ma-eum spent his early years tied outside on a farm, living in fear. He was abused by a male owner and frightened by children who threw balls at him. Because of that, he is still afraid of men, loud playground sounds, and the sight of bouncing toys. But despite all this, Ma-eum has the gentlest heart. For the past two years, he has been living in a patient and loving foster home. He has made slow, steady progress — on his terms — and is now ready for the next chapter of his life. 🧬 Personality Ma-eum is a quiet, thoughtful boy with a soft energy. He feels safest around gentle women with warm voices, and he truly thrives in calm, peaceful homes. He may keep his distance from men indoors, but sometimes shows more courage when outdoors. He isn’t the kind of dog who will run into your arms — but with time and patience, he’ll follow you anywhere. He enjoys peaceful walks, nosework games, gentle pets, and long naps by your side. He doesn't bark much, and he waits quietly when left alone after a short adjustment. 🏡 At Home ✅ House-trained (prefers peeing on vertical surfaces — his foster can provide wall-to-floor pads) ✅ Good with calm dogs (interested and social but may growl at overly excited dogs) ✅ Neutral to cats (no strong prey drive) ✅ Tolerates children (nervous around fast movements but never aggressive) ✅ Excellent in the car ✅ Loves brushing and gentle touch 🚫 Afraid of balls and squeaky toys — he prefers games with treats instead 💛 Ma-eum is looking for… A family who will let him set the pace. Someone who doesn’t expect instant cuddles but understands how meaningful it is when a shy dog chooses to stay close. Ideally, a female adopter or a quiet household with gentle energy. 📦 Foster home can provide pee pad setup 📍 Adoption includes interview & home check 📩 If Ma-eum’s story touched your heart, we’d love to tell you more. He’s been waiting a long time for someone who sees past the fear — and into his true, beautiful heart

To learn more about Ringo, please get in touch with dogs@lostdogrescue.org. A Day in the Life of Ringo: Play, Cuddles, Repeat! Meet Ringo, an 8-month-old cattle dog mix who’s ready to rock your world! This playful and curious pup is already stealing hearts with his stunning brindled coat, big personality, and endless zest for life. He loves everyone he meets and thrives on adventure. Whether he’s chasing balls, running free in the yard, or showing off his growing list of commands, Ringo’s enthusiasm is contagious. Ringo is very smart—the kind of clever that keeps you laughing and on your toes. He’s eager to please, loves treats (almost as much as his toys!), and is learning quickly what it means to be a well-mannered young gentleman. He’s house-trained, a good car companion, and enjoys relaxing by the door, watching the world go by or napping close to his favorite human. Like any bright, young pup, Ringo needs both physical exercise and mental challenges to keep his tail wagging. He’d do best with an active adopter who enjoys being outdoors and has a fully fenced yard where he can safely zoom to his heart’s content. He’s still growing out of his puppy antics—a bit jumpy, mouthy, and full of energy—but with patience, consistency, and continued training, Ringo will mature into an incredible lifelong companion. If you’re ready to team up with a fun, whip-smart pup who’ll keep you laughing, learning, and moving, come meet Ringo today—he’s ready to join your fab family!
