Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Bop has been returned. He was adopted for a little over a year and now his adopters say he has anxiety they cannot deal with. So far he is doing well at his foster home. He is a Dachshund mix so he is a little high energy but that comes with the breed.Bop was rescued from our local shelter after being transfered from a shelter in Texas. Bop is a happy little guy. He likes his foster brothers and sisters(cat and dog). He is clean in his crate and walks well on a leash.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.June 29, 2026, 11:20 pm

Story
Bear is a 6-year-old shorty looking for his forever home! This boy is approximately 18 lbs and is the sweetest guy. Because of how short he is, we do believe he is some sort of Bassett mix! He loves other dogs and is currently being fostered in a sanctuary along the Texas/Mexico border. This sanctuary is only a temporary place to house animals while we find them their forever homes. So small or big dogs, he gets along wonderfully with! Bear has met kitties and gets along great with them also! The sanctuary has inside cats that all dogs get along with. Kids? No problem. Bear just asks they love him a lot as he has a lot of love to give. A fun quirk about Bear: He ALWAYS has to have a blanket. He has an attachment with his blankets, no matter how hot it is. He covers himself with it, then will uncover himself, go run and play, eat his food and go right back under his blanket. He is OBSESSED with a blanket and its absolutely adorable. He will drag it everywhere he can! Bear is house and crate trained. Bear used to have an owner, but he was surrendered as his owner was elderly and got sent to a nursing home and could no longer keep him. This boy is quirky, fun, playful, gentle and all around loving. If you have blankets, that’s even more of a plus! Please consider giving Bear his forever home. Bear will be fixed (spayed/neutered), heart worm negative, current on age-appropriate vaccinations, current on flea/tick and heart worm prevention, microchipped, current on dewormer, and will receive a clean bill of health from a licensed veterinarian prior to transport. To apply to adopt you can go to our website at: www.pawsitive-Impact-animal-rescue.org This animal is currently located in Texas, but we do NOT adopt animals out in Texas due to the hundreds of animals being euthanized here daily. We ONLY do adopt in Central US and the East Coast. The adoption fee listed ($525) INCLUDES transport from Texas to the location where this animal is posted in. Transport goes to the following locations every 2-3 weeks: (Certain areas vary depending on adopters in the area) Albany and Latham, NY Wells and Brattleboro, VT Willington, New Haven and Dayville, CT Port Chester, NY Dayton and Akron, OH Grove City and Bloomsburg, PA Ridgefield and Mt Laurel, NJ White Marsh/Elkton, MD Falls Church, VA We have happily adopted hundreds of animals this way (long distance), and we do our best to make sure the animal you are applying for is best fit for your home.

Story
We have made the difficult decision to rehome Daisy, who we adopted 6 months ago from a rehoming. She is a sweet dog and LOVES to snuggle under a blanket. She loves to go on hikes or sniff in the yard. She is good with other dogs (unsure about cats) and was previously housed with 2 other dachshunds who we think she misses. She has behavioral issues that were undisclosed to us. She is very fearful and is currently on 10 mg of Prozac for her anxiety and separation anxiety. She is very wary of strangers and will bark a lot, but she calms down after a short period. She has made progress with housetraining and only has rare accidents when we leave her alone for work. We love her and want to find her a home to give her the attention she deserves. She is shy and sweet but her personality comes out. She would do well in a calm home with no small children and at least one other dog. Must have experience with dogs. Experience with doxies/anxious dogs is a plus. Allergic to chicken and beef.

Story
Libby came to us from a sad past. She was rescued from a home where she was kept in and tied to a bathtub. Her coat was thin and was chopped up like a kid were given a pair of scissors and went to town. Despite it all, she is the most loving and sweet little girl. Libby loves to be around her adult foster humans, and tolerates the fast moving little human as well (although takes some getting used to). She is a bit shy at first when meeting new people, but warms up quickly. She loves to play with her toys, but also knows when it's time to relax and loves to cuddle up. She walks beautifully on the leash and is gentle when she puts her paws on you for reassurance. While she rarely has an accident in the house, she is still working on her potty training and is doing very well when kept on a schedule. She sleeps perfectly in the crate, but doesn't love being in it when her foster parents have to run out. She just loves her people too much! Libby would be the perfect match for someone looking for a loving and playful short stack whose goal in life is to be her humans' best friend. If you live in DC/MD/NoVa and would like to welcome the most loving sidekick, please fill out an application for her below to begin the process: https://forms.gle/V7qkQ2F5b55J8Nmt9
