Story
I’ve had quite a life, from a past that may have involved hunting to working as a crop protector at a local winery. I was adopted in 2022 but returned through no fault of my own because I kept following another dog out of the fencing. I guess I’m a follower! I’m a timid, submissive girl who needs a patient family to help me build confidence. I love other dogs and would do best with a canine companion to learn from. My idea of heaven is a warm home, a comfy couch, and occasional opportunities to stretch my legs. I prefer older, respectful kids who understand that I need a calm environment. I also have a suspected fatty lump on my leg that isn’t currently a concern to my vet. And why Nubbie? I have a half-tail, which just adds to my charm. My tail may be short, but my heart is full!

Hi, I'm Harper! 🐾 I'm a tiny tan and white American Foxhound puppy just starting my adventure at one month old, and I'm already packed with personality. I'm affectionate, playful, and endlessly curious about the world around me — I love exploring, snuggling up close, and making new friends. I'm smart and eager to learn, though I do have a mischievous streak that keeps things fun and interesting. Come meet me and let's start this exciting journey together! 💕

Foster Homes Needed! Do you have time and room in your life for a foster dog? http://www.muttloverescue.org/foster.html *****************   **COMING SOON** Ever wish you could have that perfect hound? Alice is the one for you. She is also affectionately known as Moaning Myrtle. She has very pronounced and hilarious sighs and moans (not a barker though). Maybe it's someone blocking her sunshine?? Never has there been a more sun loving pup - she loves to spend time in her fosters quiet backyard contemplating nature. Snuggle time is on her favorites list unless her own bed is calling her for a nap. A crate is also an ok choice for her as long as treats are included. Now, she is a hound so the scent of something in the woods could get you an extra 10 minutes before moving on. And loud noises like thunder and fireworks require extra close snuggle time. Currently she is attending college with foster mom, unofficially the rowing teams mascot. What's better than a teachers pet, lol. As a young adult, we think about 3-5 years, canine companions are still so much fun for Alice. She engages them in play at their level. Her zoomies are too cute, she is so awkward with those long legs. Currently she is in foster in NC but hope to see her in Virginia soon.  **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.

Story
We adopted him as a puppy from a rescue in Martinsville, VA. He is now almost seven years old. He does not do well with other dogs when on a leash. He is fine when not on a leash and loves to go play at doggie day care. He is very protective of the house and will alert if anyone comes onto the property.

Story
Introducing the handsome Ferrero! Ferrero is a sweet hound with a love for the great outdoors! If he had it his way, he’d spend most of his time outside, sniffing around, enjoying the fresh air, and basking in the sun! This sweet boy appreciates the simple things in life: a peaceful environment, a chance to explore, and all the yummy treats you can supply. Ferrero is happiest when things are quiet and relaxed, making him a wonderful match for someone looking for a laid-back companion who enjoys taking life at a slower pace. He also does well with the company of calm dogs! If you have a quiet home, love spending time outdoors, and think a chill, handsome hound sounds like the perfect match, Ferrero might just be your guy! Come by and meet him at the shelter!
