Story
Dont let the name fool you-Slow Mo is anything but slow! This big&#44 lovable 4-year-old Mastiff is full of energy&#44 personality&#44 and a whole lot of heart. With his impressive size and playful spirit&#44 Slow Mo makes a grand entrance wherever he goes and is always ready to turn heads (and steal hearts). He thrives in an active home where he can stretch those long legs on daily adventures&#44 romp around in a secure yard&#44 and enjoy plenty of playtime. Whether its a spirited game of fetch or a brisk walk&#44 Slow Mo is always up for the next activity&#44 as long as it involves movement and fun. Despite his larger-than-life presence&#44 Slow Mo is a gentle goofball who loves being around his people. He would love a home where he can be the only 4-legged companion and soak up all of the attention. Hes looking for a family that appreciates big dogs and big love&#44 and who can match his energy with patience&#44 consistency&#44 and plenty of exercise. If youre ready for a giant companion with a zest for life and a heart to match&#44 Slow Mo might just be your perfect match.

Story
Meet Arnold “Arnie” – A Gentle Giant Ready for His Second Chance Arnold, lovingly called Arnie, is an 8-year-old Cane Corso with a story that spans continents. Born in Russia and brought to the United States for backyard breeding, Arnie’s early life was about producing puppies — not being someone’s cherished companion. Now neutered and officially retired (he is registered with the International Cane Corso Federation), Arnie is finally getting the chance to learn what it means to simply be a dog — and he’s ready to find a patient, understanding home to continue that journey. Arnie has completed heartworm treatment and is on the road to a healthier, happier future. He is crate trained and settles well in his crate, though he will shred plush beds — so blankets or chew-proof bedding are best. He loves to chew (a lot!), so plenty of durable chew toys and supervision when he’s not crated are a must. He is not fully house trained yet and will need consistency and structure. Arnie also has coprophagia, so immediate yard cleanup is necessary. The good news? He is extremely food motivated and not food aggressive at all, which makes training much easier. Right now, “sit” and "shake" are the only commands he knows, but he is eager to learn and will thrive with someone committed to continuing his training. Arnie would do wonderfully with another stable, well-mannered dog who can serve as a role model. He has a low prey drive and does well around cats, choosing to calmly ignore them. Because he is still learning that jumping isn’t appropriate and can be strong on leash (he is not leash trained and does pull), a home without small children would be best. Bath time isn’t his favorite, but with calm direction, he will walk into the tub willingly. He is tolerant of nail trims and generally cooperative with handling. Arnie appears to carry some past trauma; he can become fearful and cry around certain men, particularly those with deeper voices or darker complexions. With patience, reassurance, and positive experiences, he continues to build confidence and trust. Arnie is a big, sensitive soul who simply never had the chance to be someone’s beloved companion. He will need structure, supervision, and continued training — but in return, you’ll get a loyal, devoted dog who is finally learning what safety and kindness feel like. If you’re experienced with large breeds, believe in second chances, and are ready to help a gentle giant write his next chapter, Arnie is waiting. 🖤 If you are interested in Arnold please reach out to Tramp's Rescue to complete an application! He is currently in Virginia Beach, VA. trampsrescue@yahoo.com (804) 248-3042

Story
3 year old Cane Corso named Bella . She loves toys, cuddling and her sleep. Shes definitely a laid back dog. We have a baby and its hard to give Bella the attention she deserves. Shes more of a nervous dog so now that our daughter is moving around more and crawling shes not doing well with that so we figured it would be best for her to go to a home with no kids or at least older ones .

These pups are in Richmond, Virginia too!
