Story
About Karley Approx. 5 years old | 77.6 lbs | Gentle, devoted companion This sweet girl has had a series of loving homes due to human circumstances—not behavior issues. Her first owner adopted her as a young dog and adored her until he passed away. She was then taken in by his best friend, who later became seriously ill. During that time, she showed an extraordinary level of awareness—waking him at night when his oxygen equipment wasn’t working or when he needed assistance, despite having no training to do so. Most recently, she moved again when a resident cat was unable to adjust to sharing the home. Each transition has been handled with care and love, and she has remained gentle and emotionally connected throughout. 🐾 Personality & Temperament Exceptionally gentle and affectionate Very people-oriented—she bonds deeply and wants to be near her person Can feel anxious if separated, but not destructive Calm and settles well indoors, sleeps through the night Previously assessed by a trainer as easy to train and a possible therapy-dog candidate (assessment copy pending) 🧠 Training & Motivation House-trained Walks nicely on leash and is accustomed to regular grooming Not food-motivated—she works for touch, praise, and affection Responds well to guidance and human connection rather than treats 🏡 Lifestyle & Social Skills Loves car rides, swimming, and toys Good with children of all ages Does well with both large and small dogs (with proper introductions) No known aggression issues 🚧 Management Notes (Honest & Important) She can clear a 4-foot fence if left unattended in a yard Interestingly, she respects an invisible fence very well Best suited for a home where she isn’t left alone outdoors and where companionship is valued 💗 Ideal Home She will thrive with someone who: Wants a true companion, not a backyard dog Is home often or enjoys including their dog in daily life Understands that closeness and reassurance—not treats—are what motivate her Appreciates a calm, emotionally intuitive dog with a big heart

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.All of the animals posted on our site have been temperament tested. While not all are in the immediate area, once we have processed and approved your application, we will move the dog to our adoptive area for you to meet, greet and hopefully adopt. Sometimes we will have more than one application on a dog. That does not mean it automatically goes to another family but you should be aware of the fact that until you are approved and set up for the meet/greet.. the dog could get adopted by another applicant.NOTE- INDIGO IS LISTED AS A COURTESY FOR AN INDIVIDUAL ASKING TO REHOME THEIR PET.  PLEASE SEE CONTACT INFO BELOW. Indigo is a big-hearted sweetheart with an incredibly loving and gentle soul. She is affectionate, eager to please, and thrives on human connection. With kids, she is especially joyful—she loves greeting them and often shows her excitement with wagging tails, happy body language, and sweet kisses. She grew up around kids and absolutely adores them. Her playful spirit really shines when she’s outside, where she adores running around the yard, chasing balls, and proudly carrying sticks like little treasures. In fact, she does the cutest “gazelle” hops just from pure excitement!  With adults, Indigo does best with slow, calm introductions, though she is certainly curious of new people. New situations and unfamiliar people can sometimes feel overwhelming for her at first, but once she has time to settle in and build trust, she forms deep, loyal bonds and becomes an incredibly devoted companion. She is extremely motivated, responsive, and genuinely wants to make her people happy. Indigo does well greeting other dogs in public settings, though she also needs slow and controlled introductions as well. She would thrive best as the only dog in a household. She enjoys being the center of attention and benefits from having consistent affection and one-on-one time, which allows her to feel secure and confident in her environment. Overall, Indigo is a loving, playful, and loyal dog who has so much affection to give. With patience, understanding, and a calm home, she will reward her future fur-ever family with endless love, joy, and companionship. Indigo Is located in Springfield, VA.  IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN ADOPTING INDIGO, PLEASE CONTACT:Valerie Thach Email: valerie.gthach@gmail.comVisit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.January 4, 2026, 11:52 am

Story
Brooklyn is a 1½-year-old, 14-pound Mini Goldendoodle with a tender heart and a story that will melt yours. About two months ago, he showed up at a barn in Lancaster. The family didn’t want to keep him, and after a couple of weeks, they called us. We came right away and we’re so glad we did. This sweet boy has been through a lot and is understandably scared and timid right now. He needs a patient, loving, and quiet home where he can feel safe and learn to trust again. Brooklyn will need an adults-only home with a friendly, social dog companion to help model good behaviors and show him the joy of being part of a family. If you’re ready to open your heart and give Brooklyn the second chance he deserves, apply today. He’s waiting for someone who will love him unconditionally. He will come neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and 4dx tested. He would need to meet any resident dogs. If you are serious about adoption, please fill out the adoption application on our website www.phoenixanimalrescue.com His adoption fee is $500.

Story
Lila is an almost 8-year-old mini Goldendoodle weighing about 25 pounds. She came to us from a commercial breeder when she was no longer wanted, and now she’s ready for her second chance at a happy life. Lila is a sweet, gentle girl who is still building her confidence. She allows all handling without issue and just needs a couple of minutes to feel comfortable with new friends. Once she warms up, her affectionate nature shines through. She was briefly adopted but returned after a few days because she seemed uncomfortable with the female owner and son, although she was happy with the male owner. Here at the rescue, she has been wonderful with all of our volunteers—both men and women—and enjoys attention and care. She has also been to adoption events where she did great with all who came up to her. Lila will come spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and 4DX tested. She is also scheduled for a dental evaluation and will receive any necessary treatment as recommended by our vet. Lila would love to be your one and only, soaking up all the love and attention in her forever home. If you’re looking for a loyal, sweet companion who deserves a fresh start, Lila might be the perfect match. If you are serious about adoption, please fill out the adoption application on our website www.phoenixanimalrescue.com Her adoption fee is $475.

                                                                             KENNEL ID #18804 Meet the Cuter Things Litter (Inspired by STRANGER THINGS ) This adorable all-girl litter came to us through no fault of their own. Their owner was arrested, and his girlfriend and the puppies had to move out by December 31st. She was able to find a family member willing to foster the mama dog, but sadly there was nowhere for the puppies to go. Thanks to one of our amazing volunteers, these girls were picked up and brought to safety.  When they first arrived, they looked like they’d been battling Demogorgons — but after a much-needed bath, full bellies, and some TLC, they’ve transformed into the happy, playful, very cute puppies they were meant to be. The pup's mom is a Goldendoodle mix and dad is unknown. We don’t know what they’re mixed with, but we do know they’re sweet, resilient, and ready to leave the Upside Down behind for loving forever homes. Rockin’ Robin - Goofy, friendly and always wants to be part of the action Adoption Fee $575 ($100 refund with proof of spay) Thank you for your interest in rescue.  If you would like to be considered for  adoption,  please submit an application to adopt.  If you have any questions regarding the adoption process, please email:  rescuedp2024@icloud.com  or ddlu219@yahoo.com   for dog/puppies.    APPLICATIONS TO ADOPT : DOG     CAT     BIRD      REPTILE       SMALL ANIMALS        January 7, 2026, 11:46 am
