Story
Foster Homes Needed! Do you have time and room in your life for a foster dog? http://www.muttloverescue.org/foster.html *****************   Savannah was relinquished by her family to the shelter because she was too active for them - she is a JRT after all!  Savannah is about 3 years old and weighs 22 pounds.  Savannah is very sweet and would benefit from an active household and a fenced yard to run off her energy.  She is good with dogs her size or smaller and we do not know how she is with cats.  **BECAUSE OF OUR REQUIREMENT FOR A HOME VISIT, WE ARE ONLY ABLE TO ADOPT TO HOMES IN THE NORTHERN VA / MARYLAND / DC METRO AREA** We have adoption events EVERY SATURDAY from 12-3 p.m. Please note that not all dogs can attend every event, so if you are interested in meeting a particular dog, please complete a no-obligation application on our website at http://www.muttloverescue.org/application.html OR write to adopt@muttloverescue.org.

Story
Winston is a good sweet old boy who has a lot of stress with other dogs, and has difficulty around kids and other animals. He has hip dysplasia, trouble with stairs, and doesn't like being picked up or held anymore. He has a tendency to snap if there is too much noise or hands in his face, so no kids. He would be best as a cherished and only pet in a quiet home with older adults. He can be a perfect companion for the right person. Loves watching Golden Girls and snuggling in a warm blanket. Crate trained and comes with all his favorite things. He used to be very active but slowed down recently. Happiest with short walks, but loves long ones in his stroller, sunning and fresh air. He prefers real food, like chicken and vegetables and will avoid plain kibble. He has been with my family for over 10 years and it breaks our hearts that we can't keep him, but we have a toddler starting to walk. He is easily startled and snaps and chases if kids run away, and nips at heels. Hates dog parks!

Story
Jackie is a loving Jack Russel mix that loves to play with toys, cuddle, and enjoy sniffing the outdoors until she`s memorized every scent. She is approx. 12 years old and love to run when possible and has plenty of energy to destroy any toy you give her. Jackie is able to vocalize when she needs to go to the bathroom and will give you a serious stare and bark to let you know. She deserves a backyard where she can roam and keep her mind busy while enjoying the outdoors. Keeping Jackie locked up in a cage can lead to high anxiety levels and we have to give her anxiety medication while we are at work. She loves to walk outdoors and is very playful. Jackie needs someone who is around allot and able to keep her anxiety levels to a minimum with a backyard available for her to tire herself out. Open your heart to Jackie.

Story
This young man is super playful, but is not too thrilled with the puppies in his new foster home. He would rather a more peaceful environment. His loves his human foster family. His tail is constantly wagging! He appears to be house trained, but isn't thrilled to be crated. But he does settle nicely in a puppy pen at night. He weighs approximately 15 lbs Thank you for your interest in Jamie!

Story
Our Popeye may not have superhuman strength (like the cartoon character), but he sure has super canine cuteness! He is basically like a canine toddler, who finds everything you do fascinating, so he wants to be a part of it. He enjoys other dogs to play with, toys (and shoes!) to chew on, walks, with you by his side, and any and all attention you offer him. He is a true lap dog and reserves the right to yours every evening. This puppy is crate trained and house trained already. Sleeps through the night. His happy place is by you on the couch or your bed. If you are interested in this most adorable bundle please let us know. Thank you for your interest in Popeye! Please visit www.hart90.org/petdetail.aspx?ID=17582 to get the most up-to-date and accurate information on this pet, to email the contact person listed for more information and how to meet Popeye, or to submit an online application.
