Story
Do you like fuzzy dogs?  Minnie is the girl for you!  This happy playful girl is just over one year old and 28 pounds. She came to PAW labeled as Border Collie, but her foster thinks she is more Jack Russell Terrier mixed with some kind of retriever that gives her a beautiful coat. In her foster home, she has two dogs to play with--and she loves to play. She would probably do best in a home where she has another resident dog, and a fenced-in yard where she can run. Minnie does great in the home.  When she tires out from all that play, she loves to lie in your lap or on your foot. She will "follow you around and will lean into you or attempt to sit on part of you if you are still," says her foster. She wants to be with her person/people all of the time! She trusts her person and will let him/her take things from her that she shouldn't have. Minnie loves her toys and will run around the house with them, chewing them, tossing them in the air, and bringing them to her foster to engage.  She loves to chew and an assortment of hard chew toys keep her happily occupied. While she is great in the home she is not great on walks.  When on leash she tends to bark and lunge at things that move..  She is very smart and motivated by treats, so she's been quick to learn and she wants to please - but she will need someone willing to work on training and who can walk her in the woods or more quiet places.  Minnie would do well in a home where she can be walked with regularity and given playtime and training. Her foster believes that she wold be fine with respectful kids over five-years old.  Minnie can be afraid of a quick approach, and needs a stable and calm home, one in which she can feel safe. That being said, she warms up quickly and then sweetly trusts. Minnie has visited the foster's neighbor, who has a cat, and although it was sleeping upstairs Minnie sniffed all of the cat stuff (beds, scratch pads, etc) with casual interest…..far different than the fixed, assertive stance she takes when near the scent of a squirrel, so she may be able to cohabitate with felines, but we are not yet sure. Minnie is a fun dog to be around. She is very agile, and can leap and run, so she is a perfect candidate for agility training. If you want a loving, energetic companion, Minnie is the perfect dog for you. PAW adopts in the MD, northern VA, DC, southern PA region. ##2627837##

Story
Pollywog is a young, 20-pound 4yo sweetheart with a playful spirit and an even bigger heart. She loves walks, car rides, exploring new places, and making friends wherever she goes. At just 20 pounds, she's the perfect size for almost any home—and whether she's romping with another dog or curled up beside her favorite person, Pollywog is happiest when she's sharing lifes adventures with someone she loves. Pollywog enjoys playing with other dogs and would likely love a canine companion to help show her the ropes. She's blossoming in her foster home, gaining confidence and learning good manners by following the lead of her foster brother. She's treat-motivated, learning commands like "sit" and "down" and making great progress with gentle reminders that playtime shouldn't include puppy teeth. She also loves chew toys, earrubs, brushing sessions, and just about any attention you're willing to give. Pollywog is crate trained, sleeps quietly through the night, and is doing great with her house training. She's learning to let her foster family know when she needs to go outside and hasn't had an overnight accident in her foster home. Her favorite place to be is close to her people—or her dog buddy—and she'll happily follow you from room to room like your own little shadow. Pollywog is looking for a family who will continue building her confidence with consistency, patience, and lots of love. In return, you'll get an affectionate, playful companion who's always ready for the next adventure—or the next cuddle. PAW adopts in the MD, northern VA, DC, and southern PA region. ##2743433##

However, I am not a fan of strangers in my home or on walks, and I can be protective of my people. I prefer slow introductions and I'll be fine once I get to know you.      My ideal home would be a rural one with a fenced yard. I am well behaved in the house and crate trained.  I’m eager to please and I like to learn. Honestly, I just want someone to love full time and I hope that person is you.  Apply today and come meet me ASAP!Your new pet will require a refresher in house-training.

After being surrendered to a shelter in Alabama alongside several canine friends, this precious girl got the fresh start she deserved when K-9 Lifesavers rescued her. She is now safe in a loving foster home, patiently waiting for the family she's always dreamed of. Mimi is a shy girl when meeting new people and will need a patient adopter who understands that trust takes time. But don't let her timid first impression fool you—once she feels safe, she blossoms into your BFF. When she is comfortable, she is the most affectionate, snuggly, and playful companion. One thing Mimi knows for sure? She absolutely loves other dogs! She has done wonderfully with her foster mom's two dogs and gains so much confidence from having canine companions around. Because of this, Mimi must go to a home with another friendly, confident dog (or two!) to help show her the ropes. Mimi is also housebroken, walks well on a leash, is very smart, and is highly food motivated, making her eager to learn. She is quite the fetch player but also happy to settle down and snuggle next to her person. She truly is a fantastic little dog—she simply needs someone willing to give her a little time to settle in and let her wonderful personality shine. Once she does, she is very outgoing and friendly. If you're looking for a loyal companion to add to your pack apply today and change this deserving little girl's life forever!
