Story
Misha was a shelter dog at the MD SPCA. She turns 4 years this November. She is an incredibly sweet and affectionate dog. She loves going for walks and is very food/treat motivated. Otherwise she loves taking long naps and finding weird places to lay around. She has a strong prey drive towards small animals. She is incredibly strong and fast so I would recommend walking tools like easy-walk or gentle leader. She sheds a lot and needs proper and regular grooming to maintain. She is also an escape artist and will try to escape given the opportunity. Loves water and swimming. She is hovering around 62lbs and eats about 3 Cups of kibble/day. Looking for a home that has a yard or other animals for her to socialize with. Needs a fair amount of activity.

Story
Rocket is a a 6yr old terrier mix. He's a great dog with lots of energy. He loves being around his people. He loves to go on hikes and walks and car rides! He’s a super sweet boy and will cuddle up with you and be your best companion. We are looking for a home for him that doesn’t have kids under the age of 5. And no other pets. Preferably people who are home more often than not or work from home. He just loves to be around someone.

Story
I`m in a Foster Home! To meet me, email my foster parent at johnmacdowie@yahoo.comMeo! What a gorgeous gal we have here. She is a frisky, busy miss seeking an adventurous family to join and have a blast with. Meo adores hanging with people and she really LOVES getting exercise. If you need a dog to get you motivated and out of the house, well Meo is up for that job. FYI, Meo will do best as the only dog in your home, but she`s more than up to being the sole source of your affection, She also loves getting great meals (and she needs some as she arrived as a skinny stray) and oodles of love. Ready for a great new friend to go on long walks with? Meo is SUPER ready for you.Check out Meo`s video! https://www.youtube.com/shorts/nyE8WSXxNGU

Story
I`m in a Foster Home! To meet me, email my foster parent at Mollace4@gmail.com.Three legged Mia is a happy-go-lucky girl! Despite the challenges life has thrown at her she has remained a sweet and trusting dog. She spends her days in our home getting love from all five roommates and is friendly with each one of us! She is very chill and well-behaved in the house, keeping herself busy with her toys or sleeping on the couch! She loves her people and loves to snuggle. She is fully potty trained and working on crate training! She sleeps through the night no issue. Despite her three legs, she is always up for a walk! She loves being outside and walks well on leash, not reacting to the dogs or people she passes. She is such an adorable, silly dog, and would make the best companion!

Story
I`m in a FOSTER HOME! If you want to meet me, email my foster parent at hrafoster.demming@gmail.com for more info and to set-up a virtual meet-and-greet!Maria is a name that implies elegance, sweetness, and LOVE. Our Maria is all of that and then some. Maria is one of those dogs that displays grace (and darling tail wags!) when faced with sad times. And goodness, this gal has known sad days. Maria arrived as a stray who was so emaciated that she could not stand. She was totally broken down, yet she wagged her tail with what little energy she had. She was determined to get better and that she has done! Maria is now so very happy and ready to have the glorious life she deserves. Being a senior, she’s very chill in many ways but she really likes to go out for little walks. And does she love to be petted. Her gratitude shows daily, and we are delighted to love on her. Maria does need to be on prescription dog food, but she is an eager eater and has no trouble with her meals.Maria`s foster parent says this about her: Through all my life, I had dogs, but I can confidently say that Maria is the sweetest, most cuddly and affectionate dog I have ever met. Despite her life story, she is so polite, sweet, loves meeting new people and many, many pets! She does very well when she has to be alone at my apartment, and we are working on pad training. She knows house commands and keeps it to herself. I love fostering her and I hope you love having her in your home! She is deserving of all the love and attention you can give her :) Do you have a soft spot for the older pups that want a gentle home? Please contact hrafoster.demming@gmail.com for more information or to meet Maria!Check out Maria`s video! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VYGAU3GeCuE
