Story
Current Location: Frederick, MD Meet Remington Remington is a gentle young dog who wants to trust and connect, and he already shows the bright and tender heart he has been hiding. He wags his tail when he sees his people, and he rolls onto his back with a soft playful hope that invites a kind hand. He is the type of dog who wants to bond deeply, and he will give that bond with his whole heart once he knows he is safe. Personality and Home Life Remi loves cheese more than anything and it brings out a spark of joy that his foster family treasures. He is still nervous at times, yet he watches his world with quiet curiosity, and each day he takes another small step forward. He seems comfortable when children are in the room, and his foster family has been giving him calm structure so he can settle at his own pace. Training and Care Remi goes outside on a long leash, and he does well in the yard during potty time. He enjoys gentle praise, small treats, and the feeling of earning trust step by step. Remi needs someone who understands that building confidence takes time, and that shy dogs bloom beautifully when they feel loved, supported, and seen. Best Home for Remi • Calm and steady environment • Patient people who enjoy slow progress • Soft guidance and kind structure • Safe crate setup in a quiet space • Slow introductions to other dogs • Predictable routines • A heart ready for a tender bond Remi is the kind of dog who will give his whole soul to the person who gives him safety and warmth, and with patient guidance he will grow into a true and loyal companion.

Story
Current Location: Littlestown, PA Meet Kindle – the Heart of the Toasty Bonfire Litter 🔥 Kindle is a gorgeous, 2-year-old, 50-pound mama who came all the way from Alabama with her four precious puppies. While her babies are starting to look for their forever homes, we can’t forget the incredible mama who made sure they were safe and loved. Life hasn’t been easy for Kindle — it seems she spent much of her time surviving on the streets before rescue. But now that she’s warm, safe, and cared for, she’s blossoming into the sweet, gentle soul she was always meant to be. She’s still putting a little weight back on (as most nursing mamas do!), but she’s already looking so much better and feeling more confident every day. Kindle is learning all the joys of home life — soft beds, regular meals, and loving humans. She’s doing wonderfully with her potty breaks and is mastering the art of holding it until her walks. Confinement isn’t her favorite thing just yet, but she’s learning that crates and quiet spaces aren’t so scary after all. She’s also showing how smart she is by picking up “sit” quickly and showing enthusiasm for learning new things. One of Kindle’s most striking features? Her two different-colored eyes — one blue and one brown — that seem to tell the story of her strength and resilience. She’ll be spayed before adoption, and whoever brings this girl home will be incredibly lucky. Kindle needs a patient, loving family who will continue showing her that she’s safe, cared for, and never alone again. With a little time and a lot of love, she’s sure to shine as the loyal companion she was always meant to be. 💛 I’m looking for my forever family! Is that with you? If so please click “apply for adoption” or submit an application through the Adopt tab. Let’s get our family started!

Story
House trained: Mostly, with an occasional accident Energy level: Medium Noise level: Quiet My foster guardian says: My favorite thing about Rose is her goofy smile! Likes: Hiking, running around, snuggling Hi, Im Rose! My foster mom describes me as an energetic lovebug! That means I love to run, play, and snuggle in equal measure! Id love to join an active family looking for a pup who can come on adventures with them. Running, hiking, playing fetch, Im up for it all! My foster mom and I go running together all the time, so if youre looking for a dog that doubles as a personal trainer, Im your girl! D.C. half, here we come! While its not a must, Id especially love to live somewhere with a yard where I could run around off-leash too. That would be the best! Like any good athlete, I know the importance of rest. When Im not playing or running at top speed, I love to snuggle and snooze. One of my favorite places to be is cuddled up with my people on the couch, getting all the pets. Im still working on learning tricks, but one of my special skills (besides running fast and snuggling really adorably), is being in my crate! If you happen to have a job where you go into the office, thats no problem for me! I currently hang out in my crate while my mom is at work, and Im quite talented at it. I also sleep in my crate overnight. All this to say, if youre looking for a dog who will be equal part adventure buddy and snuggle bug, who loves her people, but dose great in her crate, and who is super cute to boot, apply to adopt me, Rose, today!

House trained: Yes Energy level: Medium Noise level: Barks occasionally My foster guardian says: My favorite thing about Winnie is how affectionate and curious she is! Likes: Walks, playing at the dog park, chewing on toys, riding in the car Hi, I'm Winnie, and Id be a Win-y for any family! Im a high-speed cuddle bug who cant wait to find her forever people! Everyone I meet says how sweet, cute, and fun I am! Im super outgoing and friendly with all humans and canines, and I love to be part of a pack. If the group is going to do something, I want to be involved, no matter what! 12 mile backpacking trip? Let's go!! Movie marathon on the couch? Count me in!! Ridding the backyard of invading squirrels? Sign me up!! m the life of the party and down to join in on any adventure, as long as I get to hang out with my people. One of my favorite things to do is play! I love all my toys, and Im a big fan of bones and chews, and playing tug and fetch, except for the part where I bring the ball back. Actually, I mostly love you throw the ball and Ill run around in a circle with it. Have you played that before? Its so fun, I can teach you!! I also love to chase and jump and wrestle with all my doggy buddies at the park, and Im always making new friends. Id love a forever family where I had a sibling, canine or human! Being an only child would also be awesome, then Id get all the attention and snacks! Speaking of snacks, Im a true foodie. I love treats of all types, and Im happy to do tricks to get some. Im super smart and learn new things really fast. I already know sit, down, stay, and heel. Im good on leash, and Im comfortable with my crate too. One thing I am still practising is being left home alone. I just get really worried when my people leave that they arent going to ever come back. That's happened to me before, so Im sure you understand that my stress isnt unfounded. My foster thinks that with some training and practice (which were working on every day!), Ill get way more confident being by myself. All that to say, if youre looking for a high-speed cuddle bug who will be your most loyal, licky friend ever, Im your girl! I cant wait to be someone's co-pilot, and share all the love I have to give with my new family! If you think wed be a match, apply to adopt me today!       Please visit our website www.ruraldogrescue.com to learn more about this amazing dog and to see other dogs available for adoption!

Story
House trained: Yes Energy level: Medium Noise level: Barks occasionally My foster guardian says: My favorite thing about Luna is just how sweet she is! Likes: hiking, napping, chewing on bones, playing with other dogs Hi there! Im Luna! My foster family describes me as happy, gentle, playful, and curious! In other words, Im all the fun parts of a puppy, without the extra work of training and socialization, because Ive already been there, done that! My foster family also says that of all the dogs theyve fostered, Im the one that theyve come the closest to foster failing with! Hear that folks? Theres some competition! Youd better snap me up quick! I ended up at the shelter after my previous family left me behind on their property when they moved. That was sad, and I still dont understand why they were done loving me, because I wasnt done loving them. But its okay, Im not dwelling on it! Im looking ahead to brighter days! Life at the shelter was okay (I was everybodys favorite, so that made things pretty easy), but things really started looking up when I met my awesome foster family! Living with a family again is the best! I love them so much! One of my favorite things to do is follow my foster mom around the house to keep her company while shes doing chores or working from home. Im always happy to get some snacks or pets in too! I like napping near her, and being a part of whatever activity shes up to. When Im not hanging out with my humans, I love spending time with my 2 foster doggy foster siblings! We play at the park together, go for long walks together, cuddle together, and keep each other company when our humans go to work. My foster family says that Im super respectful of their space, and I dont have any problem sharing toys or snacks. In addition to being very polite and easy-going, Im also totally potty trained, dont chew on things Im not supposed to, can stay home alone outside of my crate no problem, and even know a few tricks! Allow me to astound you. I know sit and off! You may now clap. Id be happy to learn even more with my forever family, whatever makes them happy! Im a girl in her golden years whos looking for a cozy spot to land where I can get all the love I deserve. Im more than willing to give humans a second chance, so now I just need someone to return the favor. Ive got so much love and joy to give, and I just want to share it! Think we might be a match?

Story
Current Location: Mechanicsville, VA I'm Taco and here is a little bit about me. I'm a sweet boy of about 40lbs and almost 6 months old. I love to sleep in my crate and to play outside with my foster siblings. I walk well on the leash and am very good about doing my business outside. I am a very playful boy and like to explore all that I can but my favorite thing to do is to find shoes and bring them to my spot on the couch. I don't like to chew them, I'm just a collector. My second favorite thing is to give out kisses and try and sit on your lap. But most of all, I would love to go on walks, runs or any outdoor adventure. I would love my home to be in a urban setting with a big backyard so I can run and play. I’ve been looking for my forever family, so if that Is with you, please click “apply for adoption” or submit an application through the Adopt tab.
