Story
** I am currently being housed at our Oglethorpe St location. Come meet me at 71 Oglethorpe St NW, every day between 12pm-7pm. Please arrive no later than 6:30 p.m. to allow ample time to interact with adoptable dogs. Or visit humanerescuealliance.org/how-to-adopt to learn more. Howdy! Vans is my name, and I am so wiggly and adorbs! I'm a compact cutie seeking love, fun and FOOD! See I arrived here so very skinny. I was ravenous and desperate for any meal. The good HRA people have been working their magic on me and I am so much happier with a full tummy. Now that I am feeling better, I am acting like a puppy and running happy zoomies everywhere. And do I love to PLAY! Do you like to play with cute doggies and be active? Great- we will get along perfectly. Now I can be a bit bashful at times so I will appreciate slow approaches. But once I am at ease, get ready....we are going places! So, come to HRA and ask for very good boy Vans. I can't wait to meet you!

"Lyla" means "night" or "dark", but of course I am anything but. It also means "night beauty" though and that I am 100% With my gorgeous light brown fur and my radiant beauty, I will light up any room!I was found wandering the streets of our nation's capital alone and so a kindhearted person took me to the shelter. We don't know much about where I came from, but the humans here have given me thumbs up for how friendly and sweet I am, "easy to handle" they wrote in my notes -- and also "loves hot dogs" (which I consider the most important fact about me). I also had a couple of playdates with other pups and generally, I did very well. Sometimes, I got a bit tired after a while and had to tell the other dog to keep it down a bit. "Clear is kind" I told myself.If you need a night beauty to lighten things up a bit, just let the people around here know and they'll make sure I can go home with you today.

Story
We are rehoming our 2.8-year-old cuddly, energetic, and loyal purebred Shiba Inu, Loki. Loki is neutered, crate-trained, potty-trained, leash-trained, and has knowledge of all basic obedience commands: sit, down, place, & shake. Loki is up to date with all his shots, and has a clean bill of health from his last vet visit (8/2023). Loki weighs 28lbs and is athletic and speedy. He loves to engage other dogs in games of chase at the dog park, chase after his toys in the house, or engage his sister in zoomies. He enjoys hiking and running, dog park chases, and is very affectionate - especially for a Shiba Inu. He loves to cuddle on the couch or bed, but is crate trained for sleeping if necessary. Loki lives with another 6-year-old fixed female Shiba Inu and gets along with her well. We have had him for 2 years, and love him dearly. We are looking to rehome Loki due to space and financial constraints due to the arrival of our human baby. Great with older kids and similar sized dogs.

Story
I'm in a FOSTER HOME! For more information or to set up a meet-and-greet, email my foster parent at laura.adopt.dog@gmail.com.Avery is just a wonderful young girl who dreams of a better life. She is so pretty with a gorgeous grey and white coat. Her eyes are soft and sweet. Avery arrived at the shelter as a super bashful pup. She was lost, alone and so unsure of the world. How heartbreaking is that? We've been spending quiet moments with her to help her gain her confidence. It's amazing what a little love, patience, and yummy treats can do as Avery is getting a bit more of a pep in her step. Avery has become a pretty low maintenance pup since moving in to foster care! She does well with other dogs, and is really good with our two scaredy cats and gives them their space. She loves playing tug and running around with her foster sister (our resident dog) and is happy to share her toys and snacks with her. Avery is medium/low energy and is a home-body. She likes to play a bit each day and likes to have a toy to chew on. She is good on a leash, though prefers her walks to be short and gets excited to turn around and go home when she is done walking. Avery loves to cuddle and is a great couch companion, she likes to glue her body right up next to her human's, though is ok with a dog bed too!Avery wants to be adopted by a gentle, mellow family that will give her the time and space to acclimate. She is well worth all the efforts as she is just a very nice dog. Please meet Avery soon and help her on her journey to happiness!
