Story
Current Location: Finksburg, MD Hi, I'm Bandit! 🐾 I'm a pint-sized mixed breed pup who's just a month old and ready to grow up in a loving home. At only 4 pounds right now, I'm going to stay small and sweet, and I'm already great with other dogs — which means I could be an excellent addition to a multi-dog household! 💕 I'm not yet altered, so my future family will want to plan for that milestone down the road. Come meet me and watch this little guy steal your heart! ❤️

Story
Meet Lil Bit – A Devoted, Gentle Companion 🐾 Lil Bit is a 6-year-old Chihuahua mix with a heart full of love and a calm, loyal spirit. She’s the kind of dog who forms a deep bond with her person and will happily follow you from room to room, always wanting to be close by your side. This sweet girl has wonderful manners and an easygoing personality. She knows “sit,” waits patiently to be harnessed and leashed, and walks beautifully on a leash. Lil Bit is also very polite when meeting new people—she happily greets adults and respectful children with a gentle, friendly demeanor. At her recent adoption event, Lil Bit truly shined. Despite the busy environment, crowds, and loud music, she remained calm, quiet, and well-behaved—never barking and content to relax in a lap or lounge in the shade. She also did great around other dogs, showing she can comfortably coexist. Lil Bit is currently living with another dog and has no problem sharing space—even cozying up together for naps. She’s also not destructive and settles nicely in the home, rotating between relaxing with her people and her doggy companion. She appears to be trained on puppy pads. While transitioning to a new routine may take patience, she’s a smart girl and eager to learn. She eats her meals in her crate and gets adorably excited at mealtime! At night, she may bark a bit when settling in, but she’s otherwise a quiet companion. Lil Bit prefers to keep all four paws on the ground and isn’t a fan of being picked up, but she absolutely loves gentle pets and affection. While she tolerates toddlers, she is more comfortable with calm, respectful interactions, so she would thrive in a home with older children who understand how to interact gently with a small dog. If you’re looking for a loving, loyal companion who will stay close to your side and bring a peaceful presence to your home, Lil Bit may be your perfect match.

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

Story
Gracie is a one-of-a-kind low-riding, wide eared phenomenon who will stare directly into your eyes as if she has an important communication for you, The right adopter will be able to hear her. Her breed blend is a bit of a mystery. Basset? Dachshund? Who knows? Who cares? Not Gracie. Her legs measure approximately 11 baby carrots in length but she toddles through the room with the confidence of a an Amazon. Her ears are wide enough to pick up satellite signals, ensuring free cable for her new family! Gracie is a genuinely lovely little companion. She adores her people, enjoys a slow, thoughtful stroll {emphasis on slow}, and would happily spend the rest of her days being near you while you do absolutely anything… or nothing at all. She is the perfect home companion. Housetrained, good on the leash, happy to go for car rides, generally sleeps through the night. She is happy to spend all her time with her human and wants to be the one and only pet. Her vision and hearing seem pretty solid. Due to her back pain, she has trouble with stairs and would prefer to be carried up and down, like the queen that she is. Gracie would love for her new home to have a fenced yard where she can amble around, sniff things, and soak up the rays. She'd also love to go for lots of walks, have plenty of snuggle time, and enjoy a calm, quiet routine with her beloved human. She is hoping her human will be home most of the time or take her with wherever they go. She loves to be petted and snoodled and talked to. She will follow you everywhere! Not only will she lie AT your feet, she will lie ON your feet! Gracie has cushing's disease, so she will need to stay on medication to help her manage it for life. She also has some arthritis, including the above-mentioned back pain, which is benefitting from joint supplements like Cosequin and medications like gabapentin. She will also benefit from routing anal expressions (sorry, Gracie!). Gracie is a happy, happy dog, with the waggiest tail you could imagine! Gracie will not be your jogging partner or you agility champion, but she will be your devoted, loving companion. Gracie is approx 11 years old and 35 lbs.
