Story
Meet Bastian: Your New Best Friend in the Making! Bastian is a darling love bug with a big heart and an even bigger supply of tail wags. This sweet boy seems to believe that everyone he meets is a future friend—people, dogs, and anyone willing to offer a little attention. During outings to PetSmart and Lowe’s, he handled the busy environments beautifully, happily greeting new faces with warmth, confidence, and plenty of affection. Bastian is still learning his leash manners and may pull a bit, but he responds well to gentle correction and is eager to do the right thing. He did not bark or whine during his outings, and while he is still getting used to new surroundings, he does not seem easily rattled. If something surprises him, he may give a small hop—but then he comes right back looking for reassurance and love. One of Bastian’s most endearing moments came when he climbed into his handler's lap, settled in, and peacefully fell asleep. He is affectionate without hesitation and seems to take comfort in being close to his people. Based on what has been observed so far, Bastian may do well with dog-friendly cats and children, especially with proper introductions and a family ready to help him continue building confidence. If you are looking for a loving companion who is ready to explore the world by your side, greet life with a wagging tail, and curl up for a cozy nap when the adventure is done, Bastian may be the perfect match. This gentle, affectionate boy is ready for a forever home where he can be cherished, guided, and loved the way he deserves. HART Homepage: https://hart90.org/ Questions About this Animal?

Story
Foster Homes Needed! Do you have time and room in your life for a foster dog? http://www.muttloverescue.org/foster.html *****************   Snuggles fetch and food!  What do these things have in common?  Ranger!  These just happen to be his most favorite things!  If you too love puppy snuggles then he’s the guy for you.   After a seemingly never ending game of fetch, Ranger will happily settle down and chill with a chew bone or even better a nap snuggled up next to his favorite person.   Food is up next on his list of faves, which makes him an ideal candidate for training! He loves to learn and picks up new skills so quickly.  All he needs is a new family to continue his education. It’s hard to believe this adorable guy was taken to a shelter in SW VA after being hit by a car and no one claimed him.  After being cleared by a vet he was able to be transferred to Mutts for a chance at a better life!  It’s taken some time for us to really get to know him but after spending quality time in not one, but two foster homes (he’s so popular two foster families are sharing his time!), we’ve discovered what an amazing boy Ranger is! To note, Ranger can be uncomfortable and reactive to some dogs while on leash.  We feel with the right fear free training, time and patience, this can be managed and improved.  Ranger has had some good play sessions with female dogs and was able to coexist in a foster home with calm, female dogs.  At this time it is best for Ranger to live in a single family home with a fenced yard where his interactions around other dogs can be managed.  He is able to go for walks with a plan and lots of treats for distractions.  Trust us when we say this love bug will be worth all the extra effort! Ranger is 40lbs and 2 yrs old.  **BECAUSE OF OUR REQUIREMENT FOR A HOME VISIT, WE ARE ONLY ABLE TO ADOPT TO HOMES IN THE NORTHERN VA / MARYLAND / DC METRO AREA** We have adoption events EVERY SATURDAY from 12-3 p.m. Please note that not all dogs can attend every event, so if you are interested in meeting a particular dog, please complete a no-obligation application on our website at http://www.muttloverescue.org/application.html OR write to adopt@muttloverescue.org.

She is a wonderful mama. Selena is heartworm positive (not contagious) and will need treatment that we will provide. Notes from the foster: Selene is a super-sweet mama with a gentle, trusting heart and an adorable little streak of independence. She’s eager to please and loves being around her people. After raising her eight beautiful puppies in a committed home, she’s ready for a family of her own where she can be loved and spoiled. Selene is quite curious about the resident kitties, but she hasn’t yet earned back her off-leash visitation privileges, so the jury is still out on whether she’s truly cat-friendly. When it comes to people and dogs, though, Selene is definitely a lover, not a fighter. ❤️ If you are interested in adopting this dog, please fill out our dog adoption questionnaire and e-mail any questions to: elenahtar@gmail.com PLEASE VISIT THIS WEBSITE TO FIND THE ADOPTION QUESTIONNAIRE: http://www.homewardtrails.org/adopt-a-pet/adoption-forms/ HOW TO MEET THIS ANIMAL: Fill out the application and we will follow up with you!
