Story
Courtesy post Sweet Mavrik Needs a New Beginning This is one of the hardest posts to write… but it’s for the best. Mavrik is a gentle, goofy soul with the kindest heart — and he needs a new forever home. He’s only about 1.5 years old, still tall, lanky, and learning his way through the world (we think there may be some Great Dane in this handsome boy!). He’s healthy, fully vetted, neutered, and weighs around 65 pounds. Mavrik has separation anxiety and will need some extra help — a mix of medication, training, and most importantly, patience and love. He does not have a single mean bone in his body. He rarely barks, but he gets excited when he sees his doggy friends. He’s silly, sensitive, and trainable with a few yummy treats in hand. His ideal home? Someone home most of the time A calm, doggy role model to show him the ropes A heart big enough to help him feel safe, seen, and supported He’s lived peacefully with a cat (though he likes to paw a bit), and he truly loves everyone he meets. This decision was made with deep heartbreak and selflessness by his loving mama, who only wants what’s best for him. Please, be kind. She’s doing this because she knows Mavrik deserves more attention and stability than she can give right now. The shelter is not an option. We are doing everything to find him a soft place to land. Located in Bel Air, MD Contact Jen at 410-459-3606 Please share. Let’s find this beautiful boy the home he so desperately needs — and the love he so deeply deserves.May 6, 2025, 9:53 pm

If you are interested in adopting this dog, please email the adoption counselor: lisastern.tr@gmail.com  and request an adoption application.  Dog's Name:  Bump (BUM0125CCGMD) Estimated Breed: Mini Great Dane Mix   Approximate Age:  4 years Approximate Weight:  85 pounds Currently Living at:  Foster Adoption Fee:  $400   DOG'S DESCRIPTION: Looking for a furry companion who will bring joy, loyalty, and endless love into your home?  Bump is the one for you! This stunningly handsome gentleman is ready to find his forever family. Here’s a little about him:  Personality: Bump is extremely sweet and absolutely LOVES people! He loves to play with other dogs, and his current foster describes him as having "a gem of a personality". If you are looking for BIG love, Bump has it!  Training & Behavior: This charming guy is already crate trained, housetrained, knows "sit" and will come to you when called. He needs some training on his manners, as he will jump up on you and enjoys counter surfing (but is learning that this is a "no-no".) While he has learned a lot walking on leash, Bump still needs training as he likes to zig zag around you and can pull you over with his sheer weight. In general, Bump is quiet, but will occasionally bark if he wants something. Health & Wellness : Bump was extremely underweight when he arrived in our care, but has  gained 15 lbs. and is looking pretty fit. We feel he could stand to gain a few more pounds, so he agrees that he will happily enjoy more treats!  Perfect Home: Bump is VERY energetic and needs a good amount of exercise. Currently, he walks at least 2 miles a day. We prefer to place him in an active home, especially with an adopter who has previous large dog experience. Adoption fees cover basic vetting, spay/neuter surgery (for dogs over 6 months old), rabies, distemper/parvo vaccinations, treatment for worms, heartworm testing, monthly heartworm prevention and monthly flea/tick prevention (while the animal is in our care), and transport costs from high-kill shelter. Please note that on average, Hatton Animal Rescue spends significantly more on each dog than the adoption fee. Sponsor Me! Make a tax-deductible donation today by visiting us at    https://www.hattonanimalrescue.org/sponsor.    Donations help us offset boarding costs and additional medical treatment for those dogs who need it. For more information on Hatton Animal Rescue, visit our website at    hattonanimalrescue.org   .

Story
Dobby is a big goofball who just loves people!   He is a volunteer favorite - to meet him is to love him.  This guy is sweet and friendly to everyone, kids included. He wants to give kisses to every person he meets, and be snuggled close to you at home.  Dobby is SO EASY in the home!  He is polite, housebroken, and knows a ton of commands.  He will relax most of the day and is accustomed to being in a crate.  When you come to let him out he smiles and wags his tail.  As an "older" fella at about 5 1/2 years, he does not need a ton of exercise and is happy to get walked or play in the yard.  He’s 66 pounds of pure love. We suspect he is a Great Dane / terrier mix.    Dobby enjoys playing. He especially loves tug of war and fetch - he'll bring the toy back to you and expect you to tug on it for a couple of seconds, but once you tell him "Leave it" he’ll let go and start the game again. When playtime is over he has no problem calming down. He is very treat motivated, but he has no food aggression, so he will take any size treat from your hand gently.  He would love to sleep at the foot of your bed but he's perfectly happy in his own bed, especially if it’s placed in front of a door or window.  He can be dog selective so he is better as an only dog. PAW will support an adopter with training to ensure Dobby gets off to a good start in their home. PAW places animals in the MD, DC, northern VA, and southern PA area. ##1127125##

Story
At 58 pounds, Lacey is large and lovely, and her size is matched by her loving heart and desire to please. She is a sweet and loving puppy who is still getting used to her long legs and generous size. "Sweet and beautiful" is how Lacey's foster describes her. Lacey loves people and other dogs and her puppy energy makes her a perfect playmate for both. Lacey enjoys walks and is learning to walk on leash. She is curious and enjoys being exposed to new and different environments. She is engaged and willing to go wherever her person wants, be it on leash or in the car. Not quite one year old, everything is new and fun for Lacey! Once Lacey's puppy energy is exhausted, she loves to find a rug or warm spot on the floor or in her crate to curl up for a nap. She is a people person, she loves to snuggle, and she loves being cuddled and pet. Lacey is looking for a home where she can be loved and engaged, and where she will continue to have adventures and learn about the fun and interesting world around her. ##2333555##

If you are interested in adopting this dog,  please fill out an Adoption Questionnaire at  https://petstablished.com/adoption_form/43315/generic.  You can learn about the adoption process by visiting: http://www.k-9lifesavers.org/howtoadopt/.  Dog's Name:   Bogey  (BOG0523OWSMN)Estimated Breed:   Pointer / Great Dane MIXApproximate Age:   7 yearsApproximate Weight:  94 lbsCurrently Living at:   BoardingAdoption Fee:   $400DOG'S DESCRIPTION:  Bogie was adopted from us as a puppy. His owner had to move and could not take him with her. He lived a lot of his life in Florida but is now back in the DMV. Bogie can by quite the character! He loves toys and people but would prefer to be your one and only. Meaning, he wants to be your only furry friend. Bogie will keep you lauging with his antics and would love for you to be his forever home. Bogie is very large and would do best with someone who is familiar with his breed or large breeds. Please consider bringing Bogie into your home!Given his size and energy level, we reccomend a home without small children. A nice yard is a must. This will provide him with the space he needs to romp and play to his heart's content. Bogey needs to learn boundaries and personal space with other dogs and he would really benefit from a home that can provide him with training and guidance in socializing with his canine friends.Bogey's affectionate nature and goofball personality makes him a wonderful potential family member for the right household. It's clear that he just needs someone who understands his needs and breed, and is willing to provide the necessary guidance and training to ensure he thrives in a new home. If someone is willing to give him a chance, they will be rewarded with a loyal and entertaining companion.Your new pet will require a refresher in house-training. K-9 Lifesavers strongly recommends all new adopters enroll their new pet into obedience training. This provides for an easier transition into a new home, ensures the dog remains well socialized, and helps form a bond between the dog and the new family.    Adoption fees cover basic vetting, rabies (if puppy is old enough), distemper/parvo vaccinations, deworming, monthly heartworm prevention while in our care (if old enough), monthly flea/tick prevention while in our care, and transport costs. K-9 Lifesavers will also cover the cost of spay/neuter at our partner vet at 6 months of age or reimburse adopter for up to the amount of our partner vet cost should you choose to spay/neuter at your own vet.       Foster Program:    Foster homes provide for the temporary care of a rescue until the dog is placed into a loving, forever home.  For more information on becoming a foster parent, and our Foster Program, visit http://www.k-9lifesavers.org/foster/ or email our Foster Coordinator at foster@k-9lifesavers.orgSPONSOR ME! Help Save Lives!    Make a tax-deductible donation today and help save a life.
