Story
Our sweet boy named Rocky is looking for his forever home. He is a shepherd mix who is great with people, kids and other dogs. He is always ready for an adventure and needs a handler who is able/willing to meet his needs. He loves to work, so if you live an active lifestyle and would enjoy a dog that you could train to do pretty much anything, then this is your guy! Rocky recently graduated from a 4 week off-leash training program and his obedience has been proofed in high distraction settings - coffee shops, breweries, hiking trails, etc.

Story
Maddox is a 2 year old German Shepherd who didn't have the easiest of starts in life. He came to us severely emaciated, with open sores and little hair from lack of veterinary care. Maddox's skin resolved with antibiotics, flea and tick preventatives and high quality dog food. He has gained over twenty pounds since entering our care in March of 2025. He looks and feels amazing! Maddox has been vaccinated and neutered, he is on monthly preventatives and is microchipped.   Now that Maddox is looking and feeling amazing he is looking for a home to call his now. Maddox will need a firm leader with breed experience. He is working on basic manners but he had a poor foundation in life, we can only assume he had little interaction to build this foundation. He is a fast learner and very treat motivated! Maddox does not care for cats or small dogs. He would do best with older children as his exuberance for life could easily knock a little one down! If you are looking for a smart, loyal companion to train Maddox is your guy! Maddox's adoption fee is $400. May 2, 2025, 10:47 am

Story
Roxy and Luna 6 month old GSD/Husky mixes (sisters) 35 pounds These 2 pups entered a local shelter as the family fell on hard times. They are extremely shy (Luna less so), and will have specific needs in a forever home: -Separate homes -A VERY friendly and confident dog in the home -Lots of patience and love -Fenced in yard and willing to leash walk until puo can safely navigate yard. -Possibly willing to work with a trainer if needed for confidence gaining Luna will approach and get zoomies, play bow, and hop all around you. She accepts pets and love and even leans into it. She leash walks pretty well and is enthusiastic to go outside. She is eager to play with other dogs as well. Roxy is avoiding touch, hiding in corners, and ducking away from pets. There is NO aggression whatsoever. Once leashed and outside she will pull and walk around, especially towards another dog. We will continue working with each pup individually and hopefully make some progress. Spay is 2/24 and they are available for adoption after that. They will also be microchipped and fully vaccinated including rabies vaccine. They are 6 months old so they have the lower of our adoption fees. Please send us a detailed application from www.puppiesareworthsaving.com to adopt. Foster location: Forest Hill, MD

Story
We are rehoming our 2-year-old all-white AKC-registered German Shepherd. He is friendly, affectionate, and great with kids and other dogs. He knows basic commands like sit and stay. He is up to date on rabies, microchipped, and not neutered. He has primarily been an outdoor dog and is crate trained for outside. He has not lived with cats. We welcomed a baby last year and have become much busier than expected. Unfortunately, we cannot give him the time, daily exercise, and long walks he deserves. We want him in an active, loving home with structure and space. A fenced yard or experienced large-breed owner preferred. Serious inquiries only. Rehoming fee applies.

Story
Aria, Bastian and Bailey are 12.5-week-old (est DOB 10/29/25) , beautiful shep mixes pups that were born in a drainage pipe in Texas. Thanks to some good Samaritans, these babies were able to safely be retrieved. Unfortunately, a wrecker yard owner nearby claimed mom and refused to let us help her too, but they did agree to let us take the puppies. The laws of Texas are unfair on animals. The mom appeared to be a sheepdog mix; dad is the milkman. We believe they will stay under 60 lbs once fully grown as their paws are not super big. We do not know if there were more puppies or what happened to them. The 3 pups that the good Samaritans were able to find, have been to the vet and are quite healthy! Aria -Female – Brindle/Black – 14 lbs as of 1/31/26 Bailey – Female – Brown/Black – 14.5 lbs as of 1/31/26 Bastian – Male – Black/Brindle – 19 lbs as of 1/31/26 These pups are fun, full of life and looking for their future adventure partners. They absolutely love their toys! They would love a whole toy basket of their own. They LOVE other dogs and are very sociable. They have the best personalities and are all around love bugs. They would make ideal dogs to go to dog parks, doggy daycare and just be around all sorts of dogs with no issues! Once they’re done playing, they love to cuddle. Working on house training and will master it with time. They are VERY smart dogs, be careful! They’ll outwit the best. These furbabies are quite active and would do best in a more active home. They would be WONDERFUL with children. SUPER Playful Gentle Very Happy Loves everyone and everything Curious Smart Affectionate Adventurous If you’re looking for a loyal, loving, friendly, gentle, super playful, adventure buddy, please consider adopting one of these babies. These 3 pups are FIXED (spayed/neutered), current on bordatella, have 3 sets of parvo/distemper vaccinations, current on the annual rabies vaccine, current on flea/tick and heart worm prevention, dewormed, microchipped, negative fecal, will have a clean bill of health from the veterinarian prior to adoption and includes transport cost from Texas to the East Coast. To apply to adopt you can go to our website at: www.pawsitive-Impact-animal-rescue.org This animal is currently located in Texas, but we do NOT adopt animals out in Texas due to the hundreds of animals being euthanized here daily. We do adopt in Central US and the East Coast. The adoption fee listed INCLUDES transport from Texas to the location where this animal is posted in. Transport goes to the following locations every 2-3 weeks: Albany, NY Wells and Brattleboro, VT Willington, CT Port Chester, NY Dayon and Akron, OH Grove City and Bloomsburg, PA Ridgefield and Mt Laurel, NJ White Marsh, MD and Falls Church, VA We have happily adopted hundreds of animals this way (long distance), and we do our best to make sure the animal you are applying for is best fit for your home.
