Louie

German Shepherd Dog St. Bernard

Male, Young

Abingdon, MD

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Louie is a sweet and energetic German Shepard/Saint Bernard mix. He loves affection and to go for runs. He will need a family that has a large fenced in yard or farm. His family will need to be active and like to take him on a lot of walks. He needs physical and mental stimulation as he has a lot of energy. He loves kids but would be better with a family that has older kids due to him being a wiggle butt and not realizing his size. He is going to be 4 years old and is about 70lbs. He is neutered and does have to take medication every day to help strengthen his bladder as the neuter caused him to dribble pee when he gets excited so the medication has helped out a lot and it runs roughly about $40/month. Other than that he is in good health. He is dog reactive and pulls on the leash when walked so he does best when walking him with a prong collar to redirect. He can be shy at first but warms up very fast and has a lot of love to give. The rehoming fee is negotiable for the right family.

Blizzard

Sheltie, Shetland Sheepdog

Female, 1 yr 2 mos

Abingdon, MD

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Not good with kids, Good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs special attention, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Blizzard is a beautiful 13 month old female Sheltie. She is a double merle, which means she is deaf and partially blind. Despite that, she is a playful and sweet dog who loves to explore and have fun. She is good with other dogs and loves to play with her foster siblings. She also loves getting lots of lap time and attention from her foster parents. Blizzard is very vocal and has lots of opinions to share! She is still learning puppy manners and her play can be a little mouthy, but she's learning. She is pretty much housebroken but still will have an occasional accident. Her perfect home will have another playful dog who can match her feisty and fun personality. She must have a securely fenced yard (required) for safety, and a home where someone is around most of the day to give her all the love and attention she deserves. No children under 12. If you think you could give Blizzard the perfect home, visit our website at www.ncsr-md.org to submit an application. Blizzard is being fostered in Kearneysville, WV. A home visit and application are required before a meet and greet. Our application can be found at our website www.ncsr-md.org. A free virtual training session to get her new owner started by Deb Bauer of "Your Inner Dog" is included with her adoption fee.

Harper London

Dalmatian

Female, Puppy

Abingdon, MD

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with kids, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Harper London came into our lives shortly after Christmas this year (2025). She celebrated her first birthday with us in August. I never would’ve thought I would have a dog who got along with our kids as well as she does. I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life —mostly fosters—and you meet a lot of dogs with unique temperaments and some with aversions to kids so I was super elated to see how well she got along with our family especially my 4 year old. They’re attached at the hip and Harper so patient with her and loving. Our middle daughter is sort of avoidant with Harper and Harper picked up on that as well and gives her space. Because Harper is a monster shedder, she’s causing my husband’s allergies to go haywire and I don’t think it’s fair to either of them anymore. Harper’s mobility around the house has been limited and I feel she deserves so much more because she’s such a good girl. Looking to rehome her to the perfect family.

Baxter

Sheltie, Shetland Sheepdog

Male, 4 yrs

Abingdon, MD

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Not good with kids, Good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

This handsome devil is Baxter. He is 4 years old and 30 lbs. Baxter came to rescue after his owner had tried different medications to handle his very young sheltiness. The medications have been stopped under vet care and his true self is shining through! We're keeping a watchful eye on him and so far have seen nothing to indicate he needs to be medicated. Baxter is an active boy, he loves to play fetch, run around the fenced yard barking and chasing whatever he sees. He loves playing with toys as well. He is good with other dogs and enjoys running with them. He would enjoy long walks/hikes and likely would do well with dog sports. Baxter is shy at first but will come around with love and patience. He is partial to women but responds to a kind and gentle man. Obedience classes or an owner with training experience would benefit him by giving him a bonding tool with his adopter and helping him build confidence. Baxter is neutered, UTD on all vaccines, microchipped, house trained, crate trained, walks pretty good on a leash and knows some basic commands. He requires a fully fenced yard and no children under 12. We feel he would do best in a quieter home without a lot of people coming and going. Baxter will be placed in an age and energy level appropriate home. He is being fostered in Kearneysville, WV. An application and home visit are required before a meet and greet Show more
