Adoption Day: March 21st at PetSmart Tysons Corner from 10:00–11:00 AM, an approved adopter must be present to adopt. Some pups may stick around until 11:00 AM for the public event—check our Facebook page closer to the date to see if this pup will be attending the extra fun! ##2661442##

To learn more about Ralphie, please get in touch with dogs@lostdogrescue.org If you are looking for a dog who will truly, deeply love you, Ralphie is your guy. A classic "Velcro dog," Ralphie believes that life is a team sport. Whether you are working from a home office, cooking in the kitchen (sous chef is his favorite role), or relaxing on the couch, Ralphie wants to be right there with you. Ralphie can be a little skittish in new environments and may feel some anxiety during his first few days in a new home. He is looking for a patient adopter who understands that the best things in life are worth the wait. Once he relaxes, he transforms into the most energetic, super affectionate, and devoted dog. But don't let his sensitive side fool you—this boy is an athlete! Being a Feist mix, Ralphie has a high-octane engine and is the perfect match for a hiker, runner, or anyone who loves the outdoors. Also true to his Feist breed, he is happiest on squirrel patrol. For this reason, a fenced yard may be preferable. Snacks are also a key to Ralphie's heart. He will do almost anything for a treat, making him a dream to train and a fun partner for anyone who loves teaching new tricks. Second to treats, he loves belly rubs - but be warned, once you start, don't plan on stopping! Ralphie is a unique guy who will reward your love and patience many fold as a fun and devoted companion!

To learn more about Ranger, please get in touch with dogs@lostdogrescue.org Ranger will be at one of our adoption events this weekend! Visit our event page (https://www.lostdogrescue.org/events/) to see which one—event listings are usually updated on Fridays with attending dogs. His fur might look jet black, but Ranger has the loveliest chocolate-brown highlights to remind you of just how sweet he is. He’s an active little guy, but he also understands the value of a good nap, especially when he’s snuggling on your lap. When Ranger is outside, he keeps his nose to the ground, thoroughly investigating all of the yummy smells. Speaking of noses, when he’s pacing and sniffing in the house, he’s telling you he needs to go outside to powder his nose, very polite! He loves playing with the resident dog in his foster home, but can be a bit shy at first. He’d also be fine as the only dog in the house; he knows how to keep himself occupied as long as there are some toys around. Ranger sleeps at night in his crate and spends time in there when his foster parents aren’t home.

These pups are in Fairfax, Virginia too!

Foster Homes Needed! Do you have time and room in your life for a foster dog? http://www.muttloverescue.org/foster.html *****************   Chihuahua Mix Male (neutered) - Adult Looking for that smart, funny guy that can go anywhere and considers new adventures the very best thing in life?  Just pick up a leash and Ace starts dancing around ready to roll. And speaking of rolling, rolling around on the couch or in bed is probably his second most favorite thing to do.  So expect to share both with him and expect to laugh. Treats can also be used to persuade him in to learning cute tricks and are expected when he heads to his crate because that's what a good boy does. Want a dance partner, Ace is your guy. He can do the best little hind leg twirling. He also does love to give soft kisses and snuggles and his coat is so soft, who wouldn't want to snuggle with him. He also watches and is incredibly smart, he may think he is a bit human too.  Ace is a 2-3 years old chihuahua/spitz mix who is fully vetted. Crate trained but not his favorite thing and remember the treat. Potty trained, set ground rules about marking when he enters his new environment and he is smart so knows its not allowed. He has a voice and is not a barker but probably not the best for an apartment. Ace is good with canine family members (a little loud when he plays).  Cats are ok too.  **BECAUSE OF OUR REQUIREMENT FOR A HOME VISIT, WE ARE ONLY ABLE TO ADOPT TO HOMES IN THE NORTHERN VA / MARYLAND / DC METRO AREA** We have adoption events EVERY SATURDAY from 12-3 p.m. Please note that not all dogs can attend every event, so if you are interested in meeting a particular dog, please complete a no-obligation application on our website at http://www.muttloverescue.org/application.html OR write to adopt@muttloverescue.org. Upcoming adoption events:                Saturday Mar 14th 12- 3 pm Weber's Pet Supermarket; 2280-C Hunters Wood Plaza; Reston     Saturday  Mar 21st 12 - 3 pm Weber's Pet Supermarket; 11135 Lee Highway; Fairfax     Saturday  Mar 28th 12-3 pm Weber's Pet Supermarket; 2280-C Hunters Wood Plaza; Reston     Saturday Apl 4th 12-3 pm Weber's Pet Supermarket; 11135 Lee Highway; Fairfax We are always desperate for foster homes, now more than ever.

IF YOU ARE VIEWING THIS LISTING ON PETFINDER OR ADOPT-A-PET, please visit: Caninesandkittiesrescue.org to access adoption requirements, more information and pictures. ***Special adopter needed*** Meet Winter – The Chihuahua who doesn’t know she needs you. Are you looking for a dog who will love you instantly, sit in your lap and cuddle sweetly, come when you call, stare lovingly into your eyes and gently kiss your nose? Yeah… that’s not this one. Winter came from a hoarding situation, so she missed the class on How to Dog 101. She’s kind of… let’s say… socially awkward and deeply suspicious. She thinks companionship is unnecessary, affection is a scam, and the floor is lava unless she decides otherwise. She’s not broken—just running on some “alternative software.” She possesses the independence of an aloof cat and the stubbornness of a Bassett hound, wrapped up in the tiny body of a Chihuahua that’s bursting with trust issues. This little 15-pound gremlin is all flight and no fight, and those little legs can take her fast and far, so you better hold onto that leash tight. What she’s into: ~Dodging you ~Clutching her pearls with offense and judgment ~Side-eyeing you like you just stole her credit card ~Redefining “personal space”, think big! ~Doing absolutely nothing you asked her to do, unless it’s her idea ~Slowly, very slowly, realizing some humans have tasty treats, but not all treats are good enough ~Leash walks are her jam, just face forward and don’t look at her What she’s not into: ~Fast friendships ~Being touched, picked up, looked at or approached without her express permission, which she won’t give you ~Normal dog things (fetch? kisses? toys? puppy play dates? Pass.) Is she good with other dogs and cats in the home? Like her feelings about you, she couldn’t care less about other pets, as long as no one is trying to eat her or run her over. With time, patience, and a sense of humor, she’ll learn the world isn’t so scary. If you adopt her, and her trust issues, eventually, you’ll probably earn the rarest prize of all: her very reluctant affection (no guarantees). Apply today if you’re ready to love a dog who isn’t ready to love you, but is super cute, deserves better than the hand she was dealt in life, and might one day think you’re alright. Every dog deserves a home! Winter is spayed, up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative and microchipped. ***You must be at least 25 years of age to adopt from Canine and Kitties Rescue*** The adoption fee for this dog is $375.00, which helps with the cost of routine vet care. ***Please note that our first step in approving adoption applicants is to complete a vet check. Vetting of current and past pets is very important to us, thus we will be speaking with the vet(s) listed on your application to ensure that your current and previous pet(s) are kept up to date on vaccines (including rabies), spayed or neutered, maintained on appropriate monthly preventatives and examined annually by your vet.*** Our organization cannot guarantee the exact breed of any animal in our care. The breed listed is based on any background we may have been provided, and/or the general appearance of the animal. **Please visit www.caninesandkittiesrescue.org to complete our non-binding application.**

IF YOU ARE VIEWING THIS LISTING ON PETFINDER OR ADOPT-A-PET, please visit www.caninesandkittiesrescue.org to access adoption requirements, more information and pictures. Meet Missy! Missy is about 8.5 months old and weighs about 15 lbs. We think Missy looks like a Chihuahua/Terrier Mix - Just a Guess. Daisy (also on our website) is Missy's mom. Missy is a playful and energetic pup. Missy is a smart pup and will keep you laughing. Missy is doing very well on her house training too. Missy and Daisy are a bonded pair and will need to be adopt together. Because she is a puppy, she will require an adopter who is home a good portion of the day to continue his/her training—no exceptions. Missy is up to date on vaccines, microchipped and spayed. Adoption Fee for this puppy $400.00. ***You must be at least 25 years of age to adopt from CKRescue*** The adoption fee for this dog is $400, which helps with the cost of routine vet care. This fee DOES NOT INCLUDE spay/neuter if the pup is not already spayed/neutered. If the animal you are adopting is not already spayed/neutered, you will be required to sign a contract legally obligating you to have the animal altered. A $100.00 fee will be returned to the adopter once the animal has been sterilized. We will provide information on this process during the approval process. ***Note that puppy adoption fees most often help generate revenue that goes towards older, special needs animals that need our help. Surgeries, heartworm treatment, boarding costs and/or all things that often result in adoptable dogs and cats being left behind to be euthanized. So, adopting a puppy saves not just one life, but many! ***Please note that our first step in approving adoption applicants is to complete a vet check.
