Story
4 months old, 10 pounds Personality: playful, affectionate, energetic, mischievous, and timid. Birchwood is an incredibly cuddly little boy with a gentle soul and just the right mix of puppy playfulness and calm charm. He still gets his daily zoomies and loves romping around with other dogs, but he also adores being held like a baby, curling up against his people, or resting his head on you while he naps. This playful boy is also a toy enthusiast — when he finds one he really loves, he proudly carries it around everywhere he goes. Between his chunky little body, short legs, affectionate nature, and adorable side-eye expressions, he has a way of completely winning people over within minutes. Birchwood has done especially well with crate training, and his crate has truly become his comfort zone. Throughout the day, he’ll choose to relax there on his own, especially if something loud startles him. When left alone, Birchwood settles down quickly and sleeps comfortably in his crate. He’s also comfortable with children once they settle down a bit and enjoys quiet cuddle time once he feels secure. This smart cookie already understands words like “no” and “good boy,” and he responds especially well to praise and encouragement. He’s also shown that while he can be cautious at first, he has a brave streak — once he worked up the courage to try the scary elevator, Maple quickly followed his lead. He’s curious, affectionate, and eager to keep learning as his confidence grows. Birchwood is looking for a patient home that will give him the safety, structure, and affection he needs to continue building his confidence at his own pace. He would likely thrive in a quieter home with older children or adults who’ll help him continue his training. If Birchwood sounds like the right fit for your home, apply today to meet him! ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ City Dogs & City Kitties Rescue is a foster-based rescue in Washington, DC.

Story
Ziggy is a energetic dog she loves going for walks , but know that she also loves to chase squirrels, birds.She also loves to play with balls.She will get it and bring it back to you.I actually got her from my boys grandmother she couldn't take care her anymore. Ziggy is 3yrs. Old.She is really spunky and we started using hands signals with her because our other dog is deaf. So if you use your pointer finger to tell her sit down she will. Also the same thing with lay down but make the lay down motion with your hand.So she needs alot of free time to run, run, run time, and taking walks is essential for her. She has too much energy for me.My boy are grown now and they are not interested in her really.So I can't keep up with Ziggy. She also let you know that she has to go to the bathroom. Her birthday is 3/19/23.

Story
Victory is a sweet, gentle girl with a heart of gold. She absolutely loves children and has a remarkably calm, tender demeanor for a puppy. Whether it's playtime or cuddle time, she is as gentle as they come. We are working on basic commands such as 'sit,' 'come,' and 'down.' She is also learning to become crate and potty trained. She is highly food motivated which has helped with the training process. She truly deserves to find her furever home. Adoption Day: July 11th at PetSmart Tysons Corner from 10:00–11:00 AM, an approved adopter must be present to adopt. Some pups may stick around until 11:00 AM for the public event—check our Facebook page closer to the date to see if this pup will be attending the extra fun! ##2763061##
