Story
Affectionately called "Tiny Terra" by her foster pawrents, this gorgeous little pup is an adorable mixture of sassy and sweet. Terra is a 4 month old mixed breed that we guess is part Lab and part JRT but honestly, we don't know. She was pulled from a local shelter after being put on the euthanasia list! We saved her, got her healthy and this little pup is ready for her furever! And yes, her ears do naturally stand like that. We're in love with them too. Terra is a higher energy puppy and we would like her to go to an active family. We're not kidding when we say she's not often tired. She will play with every dog, cat, human... or anything else she meets so her forever people need to be ready to implement boundaries and maintain her training. Terra is not afraid of anything so her people need to be ready. This girl handles car rides like a pro and was immediately sniffing out the window, she plays (or tries to play) with any dog she meets no matter the size or if they're not as interested in playing, and she is not afraid to tell you how she feels. This playful pup will be an amazing addition to the right family. She's incredibly smart, knows sit and working on place, house trained, crate trained, and working on leash walking (although sometimes she prefers to walk herself :D). She can get frustrated easily so an adopter with some dog experience or willing to seek a trainer would probably be the best fit for her. If you're interested in learning more about this gorgeous girl or would like to apply and have her join your family, please submit this form: dixiegirldogrescue.org/adopt-form. We'll forward it to her foster mom who will reach out from there. ================================================ If interested in adopting one of our available pets, please fill out an application at http://www.dixiegirldogrescue.org/adopt-form PLEASE MAKE NOTE- OUR DOGS ARE FOSTERED IN ALABAMA (UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED), OUR DOGS TRANSPORT TO THEIR NEW FAMILIES IN PENNSYLVANIA AFTER THEY HAVE BEEN ADOPTED.

Story
Meet Otto 🐾 A nice man in the country was feeding Otto and a couple of other stray dogs for several months. He tried to catch the dogs but they were afraid and elusive. One day he came outside to find Otto sitting alone in a chair defeated. 😔 The other dogs were nowhere to be found. They probably met a terrible fate. Otto allowed the man to bathe him, feed him, and love on him. 🩵 Then Otto found his way into the Dixie Girl Dog Rescue system. He has been happily living in a foster home for a couple of weeks. Otto is believed to be two to three years old. He is a stocky little muscle man at 20 pounds. He might be a Jack Russell Terrier mix. Now that Otto has no fleas or ticks and he is getting quality food, his skin, fur, and nails are almost back to normal. Otto has the cutest personality. He doesn't run, he hops. Sometimes he gets excited and flips around in circles. When he gets really excited he twists, twirls, and bucks like a foal. He loves to play with dogs his size or larger. Otto isn’t leash trained and needs a fenced yard to enjoy his outdoor time. ❤️ If you adopt Otto, you will truly be rescuing a dog in need. He needs to continue to be loved, cherished, and treated with kindness. Then he will thrive and be your best friend forever. 💙 If interested in adopting one of our available pets, please fill out an application at http://www.dixiegirldogrescue.org/adopt-form PLEASE MAKE NOTE- OUR DOGS ARE FOSTERED IN ALABAMA (UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED), OUR DOGS TRANSPORT TO THEIR NEW FAMILIES IN PENNSYLVANIA AFTER THEY HAVE BEEN ADOPTED.

Story
Lita is located in TEXAS. There are not enough homes for all the unwanted dogs down there, so she is willing to relocate for a good, loving, forever home. Lita and her siblings came from a backyard breeder who didn't want them. A neighbor rescued them to keep him from killing them. We know that Lita is a wire-haired Jack Russell Terrier mix. She is just over 1 year of age and she weighs 21 pounds. Lita also has an adorable head tilt. She is sweet, active, and playful. At first, Lita was terrified of the other dogs, but now she loves to run and play with all of the other dogs. Lita does like to chase cats. Lita is a JRT and she can jump a 4" fence or gate to go chase a squirrel or cat. We have found her sitting at the back gate waiting to be let back in the yard. We have also caught her getting out while we are working outside the yard. She knows she shouldn't be out there and immediately turns around and goes back to the gate. She doesn't run away from you and comes when called. Lita is crate-trained and will run and get in her crate when it is time to do so. She obviously received no training from the person who previously had her, but she learns quickly and has already stopped certain bad habits she had when she arrived. Lita needs more work with housetraining and house manners because she is still a puppy that will chew on things she is not supposed to. Lita must be in the house as a loved member of the family. She must be walked on a leash and must have a secure, 6-foot-tall fenced yard to run and play. Lita is healthy. She is spayed, fully vaccinated (DAPPvL2, Bordatella, rabies), and microchipped. She is negative for heartworms and receives monthly heartworm and flea prevention. Litas' out-of-state adoption fee includes the cost of ground transport to Hagerstown MD or Quicksburg VA. She is being fostered in Texas and cannot be transported until after she is adopted. Please send an email to 2manydogstx@gmail.com if you are interested in adopting this little sweet girl.

Story
Chip-JRT mix male, ~ 2 1/2yr. 40# (Sept. 2023) Email rescuebc@hotmail.com, for an application. Chip is a great dog, caught in a tight situation. He's in foster care, having been abandon at a high kill rural shelter. But the foster mom is having health issues and he is in danger of going back to the Shelter. Chip is young, energetic and a super friendly dog. He gets along well with other dogs, although probably needs a home without cats. He's not hurt any cats, but they are 'very interesting' to him. Chip is great around children -- thought might be a bit to energetic to be with children under 3 or 4. He's very athletic and would do well with an active family in which someone will be home most of the time to supervise and play with him when he's outdoors. He is also a big time snuggler who wants to be as close to you as he can be. He’s very sweet and sensitive, and he’s definitely at his best when he has someone he loves with him. Let him sit with you on the couch or bed and he’s in heaven. He’s good on a leash and is crate trained. Chip needs his time outside and loves to run and play with other dogs, toys and best of all - interactive play with humans. Chip is very smart, sweet, affectionate, well behaved, fun, and happy boy. He loves to be involved in anything that we are doing. His happy place is sitting right beside you. He loves outdoor activities and being able to run full speed. He’s just a great dog -- he's not a barker or whiner. Chip's adoption fee is $300 to help cover the medical costs of getting ready for adoption . For our application, please email rescuebc@hotmail.com Please include your location and a phone number for future communication.
