Story
Location: Manassas, VA Meet Nemi 💕 Nemi is a petite little sweetheart who’s even smaller than she looks, with the cutest crooked snout and a soft, beautiful coat that’s perfect for snuggles. She’s the best of both worlds—playful and relaxed. Nemi loves to play and will give you the most adorable post-meal zoomies, but she’s just as happy to curl up on the couch and nap quietly while you’re away. She’s housebroken, trustworthy when home alone, and an easy, low-key companion. Nemi also does great with cats, peacefully coexisting and doing her own thing. She enjoys other dogs, but prefers slow introductions and having her own space, so she can feel comfortable and confident. She responds well to gentle guidance and will thrive with a family who understands her pace and gives her the time to settle in. If you’re looking for a sweet, easygoing companion with a playful side and lots of love to give, Nemi could be your perfect match. 🐾

Story
House trained: Yes Energy level: Medium Noise level: Barks occasionally My foster guardian says: My favorite thing about Vela are the hilarious sounds she makes to communicate with her people! I never knew a dog with such vocal range! Likes: Riding in the car, going for walks, taking naps Hi Im Vela! My foster family describes me as incredibly pleasant and good natured. What a glowing review, right?? They also say Im friendly and easy-going, up for any kind of adventure, and the perfect balance of sassy and sweet! At home Im a very well-behaved girl. I like to keep watch over things, and let my people know if anything suspicious (like a squirrel is approaching the perimeter). But dont worry, my foster family says Im not loud or disruptive, just an alerter! I never chew things up, Im good in my crate overnight and during the day, and Im okay with staying home alone too. Im very polite with sharing my food and toys with humans, and I respect boundaries and am a good listener! Im a curious girl, and I like to see what everyone is up to around the house, but Im not clingy. My foster family says Im the ideal blend of velcro dog and independent queen. Being such a good listener, I know a lot of tricks! I know sit, stay, down, off, come, touch, and some fancy obedience trial ones too! I like to learn, and hope that my forever family will want to keep the trick practice (and treats!) flowing! I also love puzzle toys and brain games. Im a smart cookie, and I love working on a project like a snuffle mat or frozen kong. Something Im working on is being calm outside the house, since I can get overstimulated when there is too much going on. Im practising walking on a loose leash even when I have something cool to chase, but my foster family says Im easy to re-direct if something startles me or if I start getting distracted. They think once the D.C. sidewalks are back to not being pure ice, I might be a little more confident walking around. When Im not lounging at the house, or being a training superstar, I love to go on adventures! Im the perfect errand buddy, because I love riding in the car, and Ill happily sit up front and keep the driver company! I know Im supposed to stay in the back, but it would be rude to not greet my chauffeur when they come back to the car after a stop, right?? I cant wait to find my forever family, and go on all the adventures, and share all the snacks, and give all my love to them! If you think we might be a match, apply to adopt me today!

Story
Stella is looking for their forever home! WHAT MY FOSTER SAYS: Stella is one of the most low maintenance fosters I've ever had the pleasure of helping find a forever home. From being a shy, scared, and timid girl to being confident, secure, and well-mannered, Stella has grown so much in the 2+ years I've known her; although the vacuum cleaner is still enemy #1. Stella has lived in all types of settings: in a busy city, in an apartment, on a quiet street, with dogs, with reactive dogs, and easily adapted to her home environment. She is crate trained and LOVES having a bed in her crate to curl up into a donut while you're at work. She knows every basic command like sit, down, touch, stay and is fully potty trained. Stella's favorite toy is a lambie, or something else that is tiny that she can carry around in her mouth. Once, she took care of an egg for 6 hours before it broke, she's the most gentle creature. Stella is made of love and French fries. There's nothing more that she wants than to be inside with her people, cuddled up on the couch with a show, or playing sous chef in a calm kitchen. She takes awhile to warm up to her people, but with some french fires (her favorite is Burger King), some space, and a bit of patience, she'll love you unconditionally and will likely knock you over from wagging her tail and wiggling so hard with excitement every time she sees you. Although Stella is a perfect girl in the home, on leash, and with other dogs, she is scared of human strangers, especially masculine presenting people, and will need a strong advocate to help keep her safe. If you're looking for a great addition to your calm and cozy life with unconditional love to give, Stella is the gal for you. Stella would do best living with queer folks, a home without cis-gendered men, without cats, and without small children. ATTRIBUTES: Stella has lived in foster with other dogs, but can not go to a home with kids, cats, or cis-gendered men. -------------- Laila's Legacy Animal Rescue does not guarantee that any dog is housebroken nor crate trained.

Story
Jordon is looking for their forever home! WHAT MY FOSTER SAYS: Meet Jordon, a 50-pound adult dog whose hobbies include playtime, snuggles, and making new canine or people friends. His idea of a perfect day is playing and running around the yard with his foster siblings or you. If he could be in your skin with you, he would. For now, though, he'll settle for a good couch cuddle. His love language is physical touch, aka you picking up and holding all 50 pounds of him. He can be a bit clumsy at times, but that's simply part of his charm. Like the rest of us, Jordan can suffer from a bit of FOMO when he knows his favorite people are in the home, but he's in his crate. When you're away, however, he does much better in the crate, especially if it's sweetened with a bully stick or kong. Jordon would do best with someone who could work with him on his separation anxiety. Jordon does well with other dogs or, in his eyes, other friends. He can sometimes be forgetful of his size and come on strongly, but all he wants to do is play and make friends. He even grew up with three brothers. He can be hesitant at first with people, but he warms up quickly and just wants to cuddle and/or play. Because of his size and lack of awareness of such, he would do best in a home with bigger children. If you want a constant cuddle bug or a friend to all, apply for Jordon today! -------------- Laila's Legacy Animal Rescue does not guarantee that any dog is housebroken nor crate trained.

Story
If you are interested in adopting King, please contact dogs@lostdogrescue.org. All hail King, ruler of the backyard zoomies, champion of fetch, and professional lean-in-for-a-belly-rub expert. This affectionate, sweet boy has perfected the art of “play hard, nap harder.” One minute he’s trotting happily beside you on a walk, the next he’s sprawled dramatically by your desk like he just finished a very important business meeting. King’s dream life? A fenced yard, a basket overflowing with toys, and a favorite human to shadow from room to room like a very devoted (and slightly silly) personal assistant. He’s the kind of dog who will quietly keep you company while you work, supervise your cooking from the kitchen floor, and politely request his daily quota of bear hugs and belly rubs. He truly just wants to be with his favorite human, whether that’s hanging out inside or heading outdoors for walks, sniffing adventures, fetch, and games. Even better? This good boy is currently thriving in a foster home where he’s shown just how naturally he fits into family life. He is house-trained and crate-trained, sleeps soundly through the night, and settles beautifully into a routine like he’s been part of the family forever. Equal parts goofy sidekick and loyal best friend, King is ready to trade foster life for couch naps, sunny walks, squirrel patrol duty, and forever-family status. If your house could use a little more laughter, love, and paw-print energy, King is ready to move in and claim his throne.

Story
To learn more about Aslan, please get in touch with dogs@lostdogrescue.org Aslan will be at one of our adoption events this weekend! Visit our event page (https://www.lostdogrescue.org/events/) to see which one—event listings are usually updated on Fridays with attending dogs. Aslan may share a name with a legendary lion, but this mellow fellow is more of a gentle, go-with-the-flow kind of king. Calm, friendly, and relaxed, he strolls around with quiet confidence - waggy, curious, and totally at ease with whatever came his way. He's also great on the leash, which is just the cherry on top of an already very appealing package. Don’t miss out, and adopt Aslan today!

Story
Bo is a rescued purebred pit bull who loves companionship and is the definition of a gentle giant. He nibbles ever so softly off your hands for treats and loves to take naps after a long walk. He does well with other dogs and kids over the age of five. He is not reactive to other dogs while on walks, and he mainly ignores reactive dogs who bark at him. His parents were deported, and he was pulled from the shelter shortly after. Unfortunately, his new parents are unable to commit to him due to their busy schedules, and he’s looking for a forever home. Bo has an Embark DNA test result that’s fun to read and check up on for his future family!

Story
Bikini came to us from a small rural shelter where her chances of getting out were very slim. She is a 3 yr old pit/catahoula mix and don’t let her breeds fool you. She’s a total couch potato! She has her moments of zoomies but they don’t last long. While she does live in a foster home with other dogs of all sizes, she is the queen bee and can be a little bossy so she is looking for a home with no other dogs. She loves all people she meets and she is a very sweet girl. She has good doggie manners but needs some work on her leash training. She is a puller on the leash but we’ve seen a lot of improvement with the ez walk harness. Bikini is located in Texas. Her adoption fee is $195 local or $395 out of state with transport and includes current shots, microchip, heartworm test and spay. If you are interested in adopting Bikini complete the adoption application at the link below.

Meet Bubbles — your future best friend and resident goofball! 💕 At just 9 months old, Bubbles is the perfect mix of playful puppy energy and sweet, snuggly companion. This adorable pit mix may look like a big girl, but she’s really just 40 lbs of lovable chunk and wiggles! Bubbles is a total social butterfly — she’s fantastic with kids, gets along great with other dogs with proper introductions, and absolutely lives for playtime. Whether she’s wrestling with her doggy friends or zooming around the yard, her silly personality is guaranteed to keep you smiling. She’s not just fun — she’s smart, too! Bubbles is crate trained, and already knows her basic commands. She’s eager to please and would thrive in a home that will continue to guide her as she grows. Bubbles’ story started when she was found as a tiny puppy at a laundromat. She was quickly adopted, but through no fault of her own, she has found herself back with us and ready for a true forever home. What she’s really looking for? A family to love her for life — one that will embrace her playful spirit, appreciate her goofy charm, and give her all the belly rubs she deserves. If you’re looking for a fun-loving, loyal, and endlessly entertaining companion, Bubbles is your girl. 🐾💖 Bubbles is located in Texas.
