Story
This boy was found twice as a stray and the owner never came back the second time to reclaim him. Ozzie is a very friendly dog and is great with everyone he's met.  He is good with other dogs and loves to play. He's also good with cats.  He is housetrained and crate trained and working on leash training.  He is a big puppy so still has a lot to learn, but he would make a great addition to any home. We've had a DNA test done and the results are in. Ozzy's breeding is the following: 38% Great Dane, 28% Great Pyrenees, 10% American Bulldog, 6% Komondor, 4% American Foxhound, 3% Maremma Sheepdog, 3% American Pitbull Terrier, 2% Boxer, 2% American Staffordshire Terrier, 2% American Eskimo Dog, 1% Golden Retriever. Accuracy is not guaranteed; however, information provided is accurate to the best of our knowledge.  For more information on the pet, please send an email to info@aforeverhome.org March 8, 2026, 9:02 pm

Want to meet ME?* Come to our adoption event this weekend: Saturday, February 21st from 11:30-1:30 Petsmart, 24570 Dulles Landing Drive, #140, Dulles, VA 20166 Only Canines & Kitties Rescue pre-approved adopters will be able to bring a dog/puppy/cat/kitten home from the adoption event. Please apply a few days (or more) ahead of the event to allow time for processing. We hope to see you on Saturday!!! *Dog/Cat attendance is not guaranteed. Feel free to text the event coordinator to confirm a specific dog/cat's attendance: 703-447-4766 IF YOU ARE VIEWING THIS LISTING ON PETFINDER OR ADOPT-A-PET, please visit www.caninesandkittiesrescue.org to access adoption requirements, more information and pictures. Meet Steve! - Steve is about 5 months old and weighs 45 lbs. We guess Steve is a Pitbull/Terrier Mix (Just a Guess as we have no idea on mom or dad). Steve is happy boy who loves to play with the German Shepherd in his foster home. Steve will need another young and playful dog in his forever home. He is amazing with other dogs and very sweet. He is a smart boy with a real excitement for learning. Steve already knows sit, lay down, shake, off, and back. He enjoys running and sniffing around the backyard and is also a big fan of squeaky toys. His favorite game is fetch. Steve is in a foster home with cats and does well with them. Steve follows his foster mom everywhere and is an expert at snuggling. Steve is doing great on his house and crate training. If you are looking for a happy go lucky addition to your family, Steve is your pup. Because he is a puppy, he will require an adopter who is home a good portion of the day to continue his/her training—no exceptions. Steve is up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, microchipped and will need to be neutered at the age of 6 months. The Adoption Fee for this puppy $400.00. ***Please note, this pup's immune system will not be fully functioning until about 16 weeks of age and therefore, s/he is not suited for Apartment/Condo living or Town homes without a private fenced yard and will not be able to go to public places where s/he could possibly be exposed to the germs of unvaccinated dogs, such as PetSmart/PetCo and dog parks until s/he is 16 weeks old*** ***You must be at least 25 years of age to adopt from CKRescue*** The adoption fee for this dog is $400, which helps with the cost of routine vet care. This fee DOES NOT INCLUDE spay/neuter if the pup is not already spayed/neutered. If the animal you are adopting is not already spayed/neutered, you will be required to sign a contract legally obligating you to have the animal altered. A $100.00 fee will be returned to the adopter once the animal has been sterilized. We will provide information on this process during the approval process. ***Note that puppy adoption fees most often help generate revenue that goes towards older, special needs animals that need our help. Surgeries, heartworm treatment, boarding costs and/or all things that often result in adoptable dogs and cats being left behind to be euthanized. So, adopting a puppy saves not just one life, but many! ***Please note that our first step in approving adoption applicants is to complete a vet check. Vetting of current and past pets is very important to us, thus we will be speaking with the vet(s) listed on your application to ensure that your current and previous pet(s) are kept up to date on vaccines (including rabies), spayed or neutered, maintained on appropriate monthly preventatives and examined annually by your vet.*** Our organization cannot guarantee the exact breed of any animal in our care. The breed listed is based on any background we may have been provided, and/or the general appearance of the animal. **Please visit www.caninesandkittiesrescue.org to complete our non-binding application.**

Story
Meet Sequoia: A Survivor Ready for a Second Chance Sequoia didn't have the easiest start. Found as a stray, he was so hungry that he survived on anything he could find—even sauce packets (found in his stomach during his neuter). But those days of starvation are behind him. Though he’s still working on reaching his goal weight, his spirit is bigger than his frame. He is a social butterfly at doggy daycare and gets along great with non-dominant dogs. Because of his history, he’s currently a "student" in training, learning that he never has to worry about his next meal again. He’s looking for a patient family who will celebrate his progress and offer him the unconditional love he’s been searching for.

Story
Daisy is the epitome of ‘I’m just a girl’—a giant love bug, smart, curious, a little bit of a drama queen, and lives for a good snack. She is learning (and doing great!) with leash manners, has “sit” down pat, and is a social butterfly! Since she has perfected her Great Dane lean, she’d do best in a home with kids that are old enough to hold their own—only because she isn’t quite aware that she is a miniature horse. She’s been around kids 7+ and was inducted into their girl gang, so I’m taking that to be a great sign she’d do amazing with 2 legged siblings. Daisy has lived the good life being a stay at home couch dog in foster care and doesn’t mind being on her own during the days, but has told me she would thrive being around more people during the day for lunch dates in the middle of their wfh day—social butterfly, remember! On the practical side of things, she’d be ok in an apartment but better in a house. No large yard needed. She’s low-moderate on the energy scale and enjoys leisurely walks and will play toy for a bit before chilling out. She settles pretty easily and can be crated, but doesn’t NEED to be. Housebroken, doesn’t show signs of resource guarding, has not been exposed to cats or small dogs. Watching Daisy heal, grow, and having her personality emerge has been such a treat—the big, high value treats. If it were up to Grandpa & Grandma Foster, she would already have a new forever home—unfortunately, their current dogs feel differently. She’ll be an amazing addition to any family and bring you so much joy! Daisy is now available.

Story
Current Location: Hughesville, MD Meet Black Beauty Black Beauty is a two year old, 95 pound all black Great Dane with a heart that is somehow even bigger than his already magnificent frame. He is loving, goofy, playful, and genuinely joyful in a way that makes everyone around him smile. He is the kind of dog who will make you laugh with his silly antics one moment and melt you completely with his gentle affection the next. He is, in every sense of the name, a beautiful boy. He came into this world with a lot of love to give and he gives it freely and generously to the people he trusts. He is calm, sleeps well in his crate, and knows sit, stay, come, shake, and crate cues. He is adventurous and active, loves long walks and play sessions, and thrives with plenty of exercise and enrichment to keep that big body and bright mind engaged. Black Beauty also carries some fears with him, and those fears sometimes show up as reactivity, particularly around other dogs and in tense or loud situations. Raised voices can unsettle him and he can become defensive when he feels overwhelmed or threatened. This is not who Black Beauty is at his core. It is simply a part of his story that the right person will understand and work through with him. He has already shown tremendous capacity for growth and with calm, consistent, positive support his confidence continues to build and his bright playful spirit shines more every day. He is not the right fit for a home with other pets or young children. He needs a calm and structured environment, an active and patient adopter with experience handling large dogs, and someone who has the time and heart to build his trust slowly and deliberately. In return Black Beauty will give that person something extraordinary. The devoted, goofy, deeply loving companionship that only a dog who has learned to truly trust can give. He needs a fenced yard, a calm household, and a person who sees not just where he is today but where he is going. Because Black Beauty is going somewhere wonderful. He just needs the right person to make the journey with him.
