Foster Homes Needed! Do you have time and room in your life for a foster dog? http://www.muttloverescue.org/foster.html *****************   Some dogs come to us with very special needs and BamBam is one of those dogs.  While he is a playful pup full of energy and affection, he is also extremely fearful of the world.  This fear can manifest into making him protective and reactive.  As his anxiety traits present a challenge, a quiet, experienced and patient home is required to address his needs.  He should also be in a home without children or other pets.  Among his many positive qualities, he is quiet, house trained, crate trained, and he will sit nicely and lift his paw for a treat.  He is extremely shy when meeting new people but once BamBam feels comfortable, he will be your loyal companion forever!    **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’s playful and has a bright, lively spirit with plenty of energy to keep up with an active family or adventure-loving person. She absolutely loves going for walks and gets so excited the moment she sees her leash! She’s friendly and social, gets along great with other dogs, loves her feline companions in her foster home, and is wonderful with kids as well. Alex is also one smart cookie — she’s crate trained, housebroken, spayed, and up to date on all vaccinations. Between her her loving nature, and her joyful personality, Alex is truly irresistible.

Meet Star! 🌟 Star is a 4-year-old Catahoula/Hound mix with a heart every bit as big as her personality. This girl has been through more than most dogs ever should - she was shot, and the bullet went through her jaw and ear. She underwent jaw surgery, and as a result, her tongue now hangs out permanently. But Star doesn’t let her past define her. She is pure resilience wrapped in sweetness. Star is incredibly affectionate and so happy-natured. She loves to run, explore, and play, but she also knows how to wind down and melt into you for snuggles - the perfect balance of fun and companionship. She does wonderfully with kids and gets along beautifully with other dogs, but would do best in a feline-free home as her instints may lead her to chase. She enjoys car rides and would make a wonderful adventure buddy for someone who wants a loyal co-pilot by their side. She’s very smart, already knows “sit,” and uses the doggie door like a total pro. Star is spayed, fully vaccinated, and ready to find the family who will love her for the amazing, one-of-a-kind girl she is. If you’re looking for a dog with a beautiful soul and an even more beautiful spirit, Star is your girl. 💛🐾 RPACI is a non profit rescue, and currently possess our 501C3 to operate as such.

Story
Meet Remi, a gorgeous, delightful canine full of life and love! Remi thrives on companionship, always ready to explore or simply relax by your side, eager to meet new friends wherever she is. She’s crate-trained, but is happiest out of the crate, hanging out with her family. She’s house-trained and quickly learning the rules of her current foster home. She is curious, but respectful with the resident cats, backing off quickly when kitty has had enough. After her morning walk and meal, she quickly settles down and keeps watch over the household from her perch on the couch throughout the day. Her intelligence shines through in her curious nature, and her independent nature and goofy antics are sure to bring smiles. Questions About this Animal?

https://foha.org/pet/kobe2025/ ABOUT THIS ANIMAL: Hi, I’m Kobe — a pretty chill and sweet guy who’s still getting used to life here. I’m a bit reserved and sometimes cautious around new people, but once you earn my trust, I’m friendly and affectionate. I love my walks and enjoy playing with tennis balls and squeaky toys.

HOW AM I WITH DOGS: Best suited for a single-dog home. HOW AM I WITH CATS: Not compatible with cats. HOW AM I WITH KIDS: Good with kids. I KNOW THE FOLLOWING COMMANDS: I respond well to “leave it,” “drop it,” and other basic commands, but I need continued consistent training to manage my resource guarding. MY HOUSEBREAKING AND/OR CRATING: House-trained. Comfortable in a calm, structured environment. THINGS I LIKE: Walks with loose leash, tennis balls, squeaky toys, treats, calm companionship. THINGS I DISLIKE: Resource guarding triggers, sudden approaches without patience, high-value items left unattended.

Story
Simone just took her freedom ride. This adorable, 1-year old white and merle catahoula hound/bully mix with the gorgeous blue eyes is shy but so sweet....she arrived at the shelter with a head tilt of unknown origin and partially deaf. It doesn't stop her once she has warmed up from running/playing and exploring. She will do best in a home with another dog. While she’s spunky and brave when playing with other dogs, she also has a calm, thoughtful side that makes her easy to fall in love with. 💕 An adopter with experience with a shy dog and patience but it will be so rewarding to allow this sweet smart girl to thrive. She's waiting for someone like YOU to adopt her and show her the world! This terrific pup came from an overcapacity rural shelter in North Carolina that was making tough decisions, especially for a special needs dog. It took a village to make sure that Simone and some long-timers (such as Bingo) were safe. We were able to bring Simone to the DC area so she will have the second chance that she deserves. She’s currently working on crate and house training, and making progress! Whether she’s curled up in your lap or off on a mini mission of discovery, Simone is the perfect mix of sweet, tender and submissive. Simone is spayed and up-to-date on vaccines. The adoption fee for this dog is $425, which helps with the cost of routine vet care. PetConnect Rescue cannot guarantee the exact breed of any animal in our care. The breed listed is based on any background we may have been provided, and the general appearance of the animal at the time they enter our system.
