Story
Please contact Perry Meade (perrym@luckydoganimalrescue.org) for more information about this pet.sweet puppy ISO forever home!KENT NEEDS A FOREVER HOME!!!!  Name:  Kent       Best Guess for Breed: Flat Coat Retriever/Border Collie Mix   Best Guess for Age:  10 weeks as of 12/9/2025         SEX: Male   Estimated Weight (puppies' weights change quickly!): 13 pounds as of 12/9/2025   Gets Along With:  Most puppies are in the prime of their socialization window and will do well with other dogs, cats and kids so long as they receive patience and proper training.   Currently Living at: DC area foster home   Special Adoption Considerations:  Puppies under 6 months of age need to have multiple potty breaks/exercise throughout the day. Potential adopters with a standard 8-hour workday must be willing to make arrangements to meet the needs of their puppy.  Kent is Looking For: Hiya! I'm Kent! Me and my littermates, Kenneth, Kenny, Kelvin, Kelly, Kevin, & Kem have loved our time in the puppy pile, but we are each ready to pack our bags and find our very own forever home! I'm looking for a home that will let me play with toys and get my puppy zoomies out and give me snuggles in between playtimes. When I'm a little older, I can't wait to explore my new neighborhood on lots of walks, and I'd really like to make a bunch of doggie friends along the way. Oh, and I should probably take a puppy obedience class or two so I can show you how smart I am. What do you say? Do you have room in your heart for me? What My Foster Says About Me: Kent is completely mis-named.  If you named him for his curiosity, he could be Scout.  If you named him for the sounds he makes, he could be Squeak.  If you named him for his smarts, he could be Hugo.   But for now, he’s Kent, who is all of these qualities, plus as cute as can be with his soulful green eyes and three white paws.  Kent’s favorite thing to do is simply be around his people.  He’ll let you know that he’s disappointed when you leave.  He loves to play with his toys and has learned quickly where his bed is.  He’s learning to do his business outside, to “sit” and “come”.  As his foster, he’s not what I consider a high energy puppy.  After play-time, he settles on his bed nicely.  What a gem of a puppy who’s going to grow into a wonderful family member! Puppy Vetting Requirements:   Lucky Puppies have had their age appropriate vaccines, but may not yet be “fully” vaccinated. It is the adopter’s responsibility to ensure that the remaining puppy vaccines are given at the appropriate time. Please also keep in mind that, until your puppy is fully vaccinated, they are at greater risk for illness than an adult dog.        Your new puppy will need to work on their house training and will also need to go to obedience school so they can grow into a well-socialized dog!  TO ADOPT:     The adoption fee for this puppy is $485, which includes the cost of routine vetting and transport from the shelter.    If you are interested in adopting, please complete the Adoption Questionnaire online bit.ly/adoptaluckydog   Lucky Dog Animal Rescue does our best to provide accurate information about the dogs we have for adoption. That said, we cannot make any guarantees about age, breed or temperament.   Thank you for contacting Lucky Dog Animal Rescue and helping to save a life! Please visit us online at        www.luckydoganimalrescue.org       . BE A FOSTER!!!       Fosters make it possible for Lucky Dog Animal Rescue to save and care for homeless and abandoned dogs!  To learn about fostering, please contact fostering@luckydoganimalrescue.org! BE A SPONSOR!!!!       Sponsors help Lucky Dog support the many dogs we save. To learn more about sponsorship, please contact       info@luckydoganimalrescue.org       .   &#226&#128&#139  December 31, 2025, 1:46 pm

Story
Meet Bebe! She’s proof positive that you’re never too old to begin a new chapter. This darling girl finds herself looking for a new home because her owner is terminally ill and closest family members are allergic. At 12-13 years old and very overweight, this poses a bit of a challenge. But here's the good news, our Bebe is full of light and love and ENERGY. So we're looking at her current situation like a caterpillar in a cocoon just waiting to come out and fly. Her theme song is Patti LaBelle’s “New Attitude.” (We hope that doesn’t date us.) Currently she's a 40lb dog stuck inside a 50lb body and she's eager to shed the excess weight and start this next phase of her life. She has Cushings disease and will need to continue her medication to control it. Bebe has good house manners and has left most things alone. She plays with toys if you'll play with her and lives for belly rubs. She knows basic commands but can also be a little headstrong. She LOVES her walks or even just time meandering around the backyard. As the weight is falling off, she’s also starting zooms around the house and lots of play time. She’s definitely feeling herself! She is 99% house trained but has had a few accidents from stress. She wants to know where you are in the house and if she can't find you, she may stress pee. This has been mitigated by talking to her from wherever I am. She is also crate trained. She does well with most other dogs so far. She’s generally fine with them until they gruff at her. She’s a bit alpha in her play so would recommend pairing her with a more submissive dog. I’m excited to get to know her more and for you to join us on this journey. We'll be highlighting her weight loss journey along the way, which will be great for us both! Bebe's stats: Weight: 57lb, working her way down to 40 Age: 12-13 years Good with kids: Yes Good with other dogs: Some Good with cats: Unknown Fenced yard required: No OK for townhouse or apartment: Yes House trained: Mostly Crate trained: Yes Barks when left alone: I’ll bark when you leave, but then I’ll settle down. Chews inappropriate items: No Training: Knows sit and come. Needs more work but waiting to lose weight before training. Highly treat motivated. Activity Level: Low Needs experienced adopter: Not necessarily. Should be willing to learn about her medications. If you are interested in Bebe, consider letting us know by filling out a (no-obligation) adoption application. Please consult our Adoption FAQ before contacting us. Please check the adoption-show-attendees page (http://www.pgspca.org/adopt/adoption-show-attendees/) to see if Bebe will be attending the next adoption show. NOTE: We are an all volunteer group and do not operate a shelter. All of our animals are in foster homes. We are unable to place our animals outside of the Baltimore/DC area.

Story
Elias (aka “Sir Licks A Lot”) is your typical wiggle-butt couch hippo who’s ready to charm his way straight into your heart. At 2 years old, he’s the perfect blend of playful energy and elite-level lounging – he plays hard and sleeps even harder. This affectionate, people-loving little chunker is crate-trained and lives for toys, wrestling with his foster brother, and – true to his nickname – giving endless kisses. Elias would do great in a home with another playful dog of similar size, but he’d also be perfectly happy as an only “child,” soaking up all the love and attention. Available for adoption starting January 1st If you’re looking for a sweet, goofy, loyal companion, Elias (Sir Licks A Lot) is ready to meet you!

Story
Mammy Chikki is a very sweet dog who had a very rough time on the streets of India. She had to fight off monkeys and other dogs while trying to get food in a very hostile environment where people were trying to kill her because she was pregnant. My foster friends rescued her just in time and now she is in the land of opportunities with two of her puppies. Mammy will need to be the only dog in the house as she is scared of other dogs, and of cars in particular, due to people trying to run her down in India. She is ready to please, play, go for a walk, or just sit on the couch watching TV while chewing a Yak Cheese Chew, or any treat. She can be a finicky eater, and does not like dry food mixed with wet food. She needs a quiet home with a loving patient family that is able to understand her background. As a result of her experience on the streets, she shows some sign of PTSD as she is afraid of loud noise, screaming and hard environments. Mammy’s dream home will be with a nice quiet lady or mellow gentleman able to provide love, reassurance and trust in her new life. Namaste! Mammy Chikki's Profile Age: 5 years Weight: 32 pounds Good with kids: No Good with dogs: No Good with cats: No Fenced yard required: Yes Suitable for townhouse and/or apartment: I could live in a townhouse, but not an apartment. House trained: Yes. Crate trained: Yes Barks when left alone: No Chews inappropriate items: No Activity level: Low I need an experienced adopter. Mammy Chikki is a courtesy post and not affiliated with our organization.
