Story
Meet Oso — A Big Sweet Boy Who Deserves a Second Chance Oso is a handsome male Anatolian Shepherd who has already shown us what a wonderful dog he can be. Neutered and currently weighing about 95 pounds, Oso is unfortunately very underweight and needs a family who will help him get healthy and back to his proper weight. Through no fault of his own, Oso was surrendered to a kill shelter. We suspect someone may have gotten this beautiful boy as a puppy and, once he grew into the large dog he was meant to become, decided they no longer wanted him. Whatever happened, Oso didn't ask to lose his home. Despite the upheaval in his life, Oso has remained sweet, cooperative, and remarkably good-natured. He's done well with people and has shown that he can be a wonderful companion.  He's also okay with cats and appears to do well with female dogs. He isn't a fan of male dogs, so a home with a compatible female dog—or as the only dog—would likely be the best fit. He walks wonderfully on a leash and has good house manners. Oso is a big dog with an even bigger heart, and he needs someone who understands large-breed dogs and appreciates what comes with sharing a home with an Anatolian Shepherd. He needs a person willing to give him time, patience, good food, and the opportunity to settle in and show just how special he really is. Right now, Oso needs more than just a place to live. He needs someone to believe in him. Someone who will look past the fact that he was abandoned and see the sweet, cooperative dog standing in front of them. Someone who will give him the chance to become healthy, happy, and secure again. Oso has already lost one home. Let's make sure his next one is forever. If you have experience with big-breed dogs and room in your heart for a gentle giant who deserves a second chance, please give Oso a chance to show you what a wonderful dog he can be.   Adoption fee includes: first 2 DAPP, bordetella, deworming, flea preventative, sterilized, heartworm test, microchip Adoption fee: $525.00   If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application and a representative will get back to you shortly to answer any questions you may have.

Story
Micah – Ready for Her Second Chance Hi, I’m Micah! Not long ago, I was sitting in a DC shelter with only two days left before I was scheduled to be euthanized. Thankfully, Fancy Cats & Dogs Rescue Team stepped in and gave me the second chance I desperately needed. Now I’m settling into my foster home and learning what it feels like to be safe and loved. ❤️ I’m a young, energetic girl with plenty of puppy spirit! I love to run, play, explore, and chew on my toys. I can still get a little mouthy when I’m excited, but I mean absolutely no harm. I’m just learning my puppy manners. New people can make me nervous at first, and when I’m unsure, I may become a little defensive. Please give me some time and patience to realize you’re my friend. Once I feel comfortable, you’ll get to see more of the fun girl underneath. I do great with other dogs after a proper introduction and a little time to get comfortable. I’m also curious about cats and haven’t shown aggression toward them. I’m already a champ in my crate, and my foster family has taught me to sit, although sometimes I like to pretend I’ve never heard that word before. I’m doing really well with house training too. I’m not 100% there yet, but accidents inside are rare. A fenced yard would be wonderful for me because I absolutely love running around and burning off all that young-dog energy. I’ve already come so far, but I’m still learning. My perfect family will understand that I need patience, consistency, plenty of toys to chew, and continued training as I grow. I came within two days of never getting this chance. Now all I need is someone who will make my second chance last forever. Could that be you? ❤️ Adoption fee includes: first 2 DAPP, bordetella, deworming, flea preventative, sterilized, heartworm test, microchip Adoption fee: $525.00   If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application and a representative will get back to you shortly to answer any questions you may have.
