Story
Hello I got Lucky when she was a little over a year old from a shelter. She was abused and not treated well before me. She can be very defensive and become scared. She is very sweet in many many ways. However an adult needs to adopt her with no children in the house. My step daughter does not understand how to be gentle and patient with the dog and Lucky will snap and nip at my step daughter. When it was just me and lucky everything was fine. She needs to be with someone who does not have children in the house. She’s very sweet in many many ways and deserves a great home. She’ll be 10 in February and I want her to be able to live the rest of her life in a loving home.

Story
Willow is a beautiful 1.5-year-old American Staffordshire mix who weighs about 48 lbs. She’s spayed, fully vaccinated, and healthy. She’s an incredibly friendly, gentle, and affectionate girl who loves people, kids, and other animals — including dogs and cats! Willow enjoys playtime, cuddles, and being part of the family. We’re heartbroken to rehome her, but we recently welcomed a new baby and are finding it hard to balance caring for both right now. We want her to have the time, attention, and love she deserves. If you’re looking for a loyal, well-mannered companion, Willow will make a wonderful addition to your family.

Story
This is my sweet babygirl, Lady. She is 2 years old, turning 3 on December 25th, 2025. Lady is spayed, fully house broken, around 95-105lbs, pure bred Bi-color German Shepherd. She does great with kids, and people, but has to be the only animal. No cats, other dogs etc. I adopted her last November 11, 2024. She has since been my very best friend, and especially family. However with my health, and nature of work, I am now unable to give her as much attention as she deserves. Lady is very energetic, loves to play and run around so a spacey backyard (**preferably fenced in**) is absolutely necessary. She is used to multi-mile walks each day, tons of toys and puzzles for mental stimulation when attention isn’t available from myself or others. Lady needs a family that loves to play, provide plenty of toys, belly rubs are her utmost favorite thing is this world, and plenty of love. She loves squeaky toys the most, to have the zoomies in a spacious yard, & to cuddle. She loves to cuddle!!

Roxy is spayed and current on shots. She was a stray and we think she is about 5-7. She is on 20 mg Citrizine daily, eats a salmon dry kibble diet and is doing wonderfully in my home with other foster dogs, cat and enjoying family time etc. She is good with children of all ages, old and young humans and loves to play outside. She doesn't bother shoes, remotes, or things she should not. She is very low maintenance and would love a home of her own. Message me for videos or more photos. We are in Maryland but are convenient to WV, VA, PA and surrounding areas.

Story
Meet Cosmo This adorable guy has the spunk and spirit of a typical pup. His mom was unfortunately run over and he had to have a little help being bottle fed until able to eat on his own. You would not know it by looking at him or in his glowing personality. Cosmo is always up for a romp during playtime. He is also one of the sweetest snugglers. Cosmo has grown to adoption age in the same wonderful household and his foster mom would love to give you all the details on his daily life. Cosmo is well socialized and would do great in a home with or without dogs and/or with or without children. If you are looking for a dedicated family companion, you can’t go wrong with this cutie. Once adopted, Cosmo will transport with Rescue Vet Transport to his new forever family (additional $185). If you would like to give him a life time of belly rubs please follow the link below to our adoption application. Please note, our volunteer team works very hard and they are very responsive so please submit your application only when you are ready to welcome your new furry friend. https://forms.gle/APKvbgFJcaRvgKgk9
