But playing fetch or frisbee with older childern (10+) is his favorite. He is an energetic and playful dog who thrives on interactive play and physical activities, but he is totally down for pets and snuggles once the day's activities are done. His enthusiasm and zest for life, paired with his affectionate nature, make Percy the perfect companion. Percy knows the "sit," "down," "stay," and "wait" commands and is working hard on learning his "come" command. He is house-trained and crate trained.  He was also trained on an invisible fence, walks nicely on leash, and "heels" when asked.  Percy gets along with other dogs, he has a rough play style and does best kept in check with commands that are firm not harsh, and he in the past he was okay with cats. Overall, he is incredibly loving and devoted. With the right guidance and consistent training, Percy will thrive and become a well-mannered and cherished member of your family. He is always eager to explore new places and make new friends, both human and canine. If you're ready to embrace his spirited personality and help him grow, Percy is ready to bring joy and adventure into your life!Your new pet will require a refresher in house-training.

DISCLOSURE: The adoptable pets in our program are still in the care and custody of owners who wish to re-home their pet. Owners have enlisted Rescue Well to provide marketing and screening of applicants as a service, free of charge. All fees and adoption conditions are determined by the owner. We advise that adopters do not send payment or deposits for pets prior to adopting.  ***** Lilly is 4yo, weighs 58lbs, is spayed, is up to date on her vaccines, but is not microchipped.  Lilly is good in the car, but is anxious; she dislikes/fears loud noises such as thunder and gunshots.  Lilly's guardian adds:             "She is Ball or Frisbee fanatic. It's all she wants to do.  A friend told me it's a sign of working dog . A complete stranger could Walk up to  Lilly  hand her a ball and she would accept them . That's how I introduce her to others.  Being a Shepherd she is very protective.  I take her for walks on the Antietam battlefield the closer we get to cars people or dogs the more anxious she gets to the point that I avoid confrontation.  My son hugs me and you can see her unrest. She has the anxiety of wheels. Especially byclcles. She did a year ago knock a byclicelest over on the C.O canal.didnt attack him though.                                  We did go through  4 months of professional training.once a week  2yrs ago.  She knows All the commands  She is very smart, but training was cut short because my wife had a heart attack.  We did board her at a large kennel 3 times when we went on vacation.  She was kept away from other dogs.  She is fine with them and at the vets when neither of us are around.  She loves to swim as I have taken her to Antietam creek numerous times.  I believe in the pack mentality and think she's not been totally broken of it. She listens to me but I just don't trust her and I have grandkids and friends and just can't risk it anymore." Lilly's guardian explains why he has made the difficult decision to rehome him:  "I don't trust her that she won't commit another bite or someone or another dog or animal, especially when I'm not around." BITE INCIDENTS:  In April 2022 and in May 2023, Lilly bit a neighbor's dog and guardian's son's friend.  Guardian explains:  "Neighbor's 2 small dogs were on the property border and Lilly attacked one and the dog was treated by the vet.  [My] son's friend, visiting, got close and she bit leg (nip bite on butt and teeth bite on back of leg); treated by us, not by doctor; both incidents were reported to the humane society."  Lilly's guardian states the following regarding children/dogs/cats:  Lilly lives with a cat and parrot, but hasn't lived with children or dogs, so her guardian doesn't recommend her living with anyone but an adult.   Lilly's guardian describes her as: Very active Playful Independent Protective Always at your side Indoor dog Outdoor dog Nervous House-Trained Crate-Trained Lilly's guardian describes her ideal future home:  "I believe Lilly would be best suited for an individual.  She wants to please and does interact great with me.  No matter where we go or do, she wants to follow.  She is playful with so much energy."

We advise that adopters do not send payment or deposits for pets prior to adopting.  ***** Prima is 2yo, weighs 67lbs, is spayed, is up to date on her vaccines, and is microchipped.  Prima's guardian states: Prima is extremely smart and affectionate.  She is eager to learn and picks up on training exercises very quickly.  We have worked with a professional trainer for 3 months now.  She is well trained.  She loves going on walks and can even keep up while jogging. She loves to play fetch and zooming around grassy areas. When it's time for bed, Prima is the perfect snuggle buddy. She has a strong bark which she uses to protect her home. However, she only uses it sparingly. She is fully crate trained and housebroken.  Her recall is solid and she walks well on leash.  Her favorite toys include squeaky balls, tug toys, treat puzzles, and bones to chew on. She knows several commands such as "sit ", "stay ", and she will sit politely while you are serving her food and wait until you tell her to "break " before eating.  She loves car rides! Prima's guardian explains why he has made the difficult decision to rehome her:   "My wife is blind and has become fearful of Prima.  We are looking to regime ASAP.  Prima will nip at my wifes arm and butt, jumping at her face.  With my wife being blind, she does not know what’s going on and how to stop it.  Prima is good when I’m in the room but as soon as I step out, she starts to bully my wife." Prima's guardian states the following regarding children:  Since Prima hasn't lived with nor otherwise been around children, her guardian doesn't recommend her living with children. Prima's guardian states the following regarding dogs:  Prima has lived with a dog, so her guardian recommends her living with dogs, stating "Prima can be pushy and dominant". Prima's guardian states the following regarding cats:  Although Prima has lived with a cat, her guardian doesn't recommend her living with cats, stating "Prima has a high prey drive to see cats and can get fixated on it all times". Prima's guardian describes her as: Very active Playful Friendly Affectionate House-Trained Crate-Trained Prima's guardian describes her ideal future home: "Prima will thrive with someone who can spend time taking her on adventures and teaching her new things.  Prima would do great in an active house with experienced Shepherd handlers."
