Story
Meet Morty #0233 Morty is an adorable 3-year-old gray Maltese mix weighing 28 pounds. He’s friendly and easy to handle. Morty will need regular grooming to keep his coat looking and feeling its best. Morty is available for foster-to-adopt and is ready to go home this week. Because foster-to-adopt dogs need to return to the rescue before the adoption is finalized, foster-to-adopt homes should live within about an hour of our rescue in Waldorf, Maryland. Apply here: www.lastchanceanimalrescue.org/adoption-request-form If you’ve applied within the past six months, please email dogs@lastchanceanimalrescue.org and let us know you’re interested in Morty so we can check the status of your application. Questions? Email dogs@lastchanceanimalrescue.org

This sweet little guy made his way to K-9 Lifesavers from Alabama, where adoptions can be few and far between — and he brought plenty of his Southern charm with him! Martin is sweet, affectionate, playful and full of love. He adores people (loves to be held) and is also wonderful with other dogs. With his friendly personality and loving nature, Martin will make an excellent companion and a wonderful addition to just about any home, although he does have a lot of say sometimes so an apartment might not be ideal.. This deserving boy is ready to leave his past behind and start his happily-ever-after. Could that be with you? Apply today and change Martin’s life forever! Your new pet will require a refresher in house-training. K-9 Lifesavers strongly recommends all new adopters enroll their new pet into obedience training. This provides for an easier transition into a new home, ensures the dog remains well socialized, and helps form a bond between the dog and the new family.    Adoption fees cover basic vetting, rabies (if puppy is old enough), distemper/parvo vaccinations, deworming, monthly heartworm prevention while in our care (if old enough), monthly flea/tick prevention while in our care, and transport costs. K-9 Lifesavers will also cover the cost of spay/neuter at our partner vet at 6 months of age or reimburse adopter for up to the amount of our partner vet cost should you choose to spay/neuter at your own vet.Foster Program:    Foster homes provide for the temporary care of a rescue until the dog is placed into a loving, forever home.  For more information on becoming a foster parent, and our Foster Program, visit http://www.k-9lifesavers.org/foster/ or email our Foster Coordinator at foster@k-9lifesavers.orgSPONSOR ME! Help Save Lives!    Make a tax-deductible donation today and help save a life.

Story
Churros is a sweet, playful, affectionate young dog with lots of personality and energy. We originally brought him into our family hoping he would be a lifelong companion. Unfortunately, our circumstances changed unexpectedly after my husband was injured in an accident, leaving us on one income and with added caregiving responsibilities. I’ve realized I can no longer give Churros the consistent time and training a young dog needs.This is not because he is a bad dog. He is still learning and would do best with someone who has the time and patience to continue house-training, work on chewing and puppy manners, and provide a consistent routine. Churros is loving, curious, playful, and enjoys being around people. We are looking for a safe, stable, loving home where he can get the attention, structure, exercise, and training he deserves. 🐶❤️
