Artemis is a stunning young Flat-Coated Retriever mix who turns heads everywhere he goes. With his glossy coat, soulful eyes, and striking good looks, he's undeniably handsome—but it's his loving personality and devotion to his people that truly make him special. This sweet boy is heartworm positive, but not to worry! He has been treated by our rescue's veterinarian and he'll be on his way to feeling great in no time. Artemis is the perfect blend of active and affectionate. As a retriever at heart, he absolutely loves his ball and would happily spend hours playing fetch. Because he enjoys stretching his legs and getting his daily exercise, he would really benefit from a fully fenced yard. Once he's had a chance to burn off some energy outside, Artemis settles beautifully indoors and is content to relax by your side. He's a wonderful companion in every sense of the word. Artemis is house-trained, crate-trained, rides great in the car, and walks gently on leash. He's not a vocal dog, isn't prone to jumping on people, and has a calm, easygoing presence in the home. What Artemis loves most, though, is being close to his humans. He's a true snuggle bug who will happily curl up next to you on the couch and soak up all the affection you have to offer. His favorite place is wherever you are. Artemis would do best as the only dog in the home, where he can enjoy all the love and attention for himself. He is truly a people dog through and through and is looking for someone who wants a loyal, devoted companion. If you're looking for a loyal best friend who loves fetch, enjoys adventures, and is always ready for a cuddle session afterward, Artemis may be the perfect match for you. Apply today!

Story
Clara is a 4 year old low key doodle looking for a calm home that will help her lose some weight and get back on a regular exercise regime to lose some weight. Her family had twins, and she has been left out of activities for the past year and is really craving some attention. She is very easy-going, requires regular grooming as any doodle does, and just loves to hang out with her people. She has not led a very social life and is used to a fenced yard. She knows how to ring bells on the door to let you know she needs to go out to go to the bathroom. She could use a patient person who can help her in the transition to a new home. contact irondawgs13@gmail.com for adoption application.

Story
Pepper is a beautiful happy pup that showed up at an apartment complex as a youngster. She has been passed around from apartment to apartment but grew into a 60 pound dog that still needs to do more filling out. The person who keeps her asked Rescue to find her a bigger home with a yard and more exercise than what she was getting out of the small apartments. She is a high energy girl with a lot of fancy moves and does very well on a leash. She could use a little more training, but her breed mix is extremely smart and she would learn very very fast. She would make an excellent running or hiking partner, and do fabulous with agility or obstacle courses. She is very social and loves everybody. She meets and currently lives with some cats. She is crate trained, and has very good house manners and is an excellent dog that will make her new family extremely happy. contact irondawgs13@gmail.com for adoption application

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
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: 6 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. To learn more about her or arrange to meet her, please call or text Morella at (415) 858-9731 or visit the website downwardfacing.dog.
