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. Fostered in Fairfield, PA Please apply at mirishaven.org

Story
Current Location: Finksburg, MD Hi, I'm Scout! 🐾 I'm a tiny mixed-breed boy who's just starting my journey — at one month old and a petite 4 pounds, I'm still learning about the world around me. I get along great with other dogs, so I'll be a wonderful addition to a multi-dog household. Right now I need lots of love, patience, and puppy care as I grow, but I promise the bond we'll build will be worth every moment. My adoption fee is $450, and I can't wait to meet the family that's ready to grow up with me! 🐶

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! ❤️
