Story
Meet Manchester City! Looking for her forever home! This sweet 4.5-month-old girl is searching for the perfect family to call her own! Loves being outdoors and would happily spend hours exploring and playing. Full of puppy energy and loves her toys. Gets along great with our resident dogs and would thrive in a home with another playful pup, though she could also do well as an only dog with plenty of attention and exercise. Does well with cats. Great with kids. Sleeps quietly in her crate at night. Currently working on potty training and making great progress! She would do best with an active family that can give her plenty of exercise, love, and room to run and play. A home with a fenced yard or plenty of space to run would be ideal. If you're looking for a fun, affectionate, and adventurous companion, this girl might be your perfect match! Adoption Day: July 11th at PetSmart Tysons Corner from 10:00–11:00 AM, an approved adopter must be present to adopt. Some pups may stick around until 11:00 AM for the public event—check our Facebook page closer to the date to see if this pup will be attending the extra fun! ##2763067##

Story
Messi is a sweet and playful pup who also all people, dogs, and cats if they're willing!  He loves to chase a ball and even brings it back sometimes. He sleeps quietly thru' the night in his crate (not as happy in the crate when his people are leaving, but doing pretty well for a baby just weeks into rescue, good boy!) Walking on a leash is a new concept and he's not sure about it, but taking that literal leap of faith to please his people (i.e. over a threshold to a lower step that he can't see!) and will gain confidence quickly. Even his first week in foster he was so close to potty trained, an accident here and there----which usually means human error, tbh!-----and so far 100% now in his second week, what a great, smart and wants-to-learn pup!! Great with all dogs so far, and with the resident cats jhis first week in foster (current home doesn't have cats, but he was great when they were in the same  house) and is just the most cuddly little lovebug. Be the lucky person who gets to take him home and OMG, you will absolutely melt that first time he quietly comes over and puts his chin on your lap to gaze at you with abiding love and adoration just because you're you. Adoption Day: Send a meet&greet request, fall in love with this sweet, loving, playful boy to be a reserved adopter, then take him home July 11th at PetSmart Tysons Corner from 10:00–11:00 AM!! An approved adopter must be present to adopt. Some pups may stick around until 11:00 AM for the public event—check our Facebook page closer to the date to see if this pup will be attending the extra fun! ##2763068##
