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
Please contact Diane Pedulla (dianep@luckydoganimalrescue.org) for more information about this pet.sweet mama seeking her own humans!FRANCESCA NEEDS A FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME!!!! Name: Francesca       Best Guess for Breed:  Miniature pinscher mix   Best Guess for Age:  2 years as of May 2026       SEX:   Female   Approximate Weight:   24 pounds   Gets Along With: Other dogs!  We haven't seen her with cats or kids but we are happy to discuss integration techniques with any potential adopters!   Currently Living at:    Lucky Dog's South Carolina rescue campus - needs a foster or forever home in the DC area to get up here!   Special adoption considerations: Francesca is a truly Lucky Dog. She tested positive for heartworms, but landed in a place where heartworm treatment is provided! Heartworm is not contagious to people or other pets, but results from mosquito bites. Heartworm, if left untreated, is life threatening, but after treatment, dogs that were heartworm positive should suffer no significant long-term effects so long as they are kept on a monthly heartworm preventative. Heartworm dogs can resume full active and normal lives, but need to be kept calm for 4-6 weeks after treatment. We are happy to discuss where in the treatment process this Lucky Dog is in right now! Just email the adoption coordinator - the address is at lower left!   Francesca is Looking For:  Her forever home! She did an amazing job raising her six babies Felix, Fox, Freddy, Freda, FRan, and Frank to be great family pets. They're all off to seek their own humans and now Francesca is seeking her own humans to love and be loved by. She's in her prime as a young adult dog and is eager for long sniffy walks, romps, and all those wonderful adventures. Most of all, though, she wants to know she's safe and loved, where she belongs. In exchange she promises loyal companionship for all her days.What do you say? Does Francesca have a spot in your home and your heart?   What My Foster Says About Me:    We will update this once she has spent time in foster care.   Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken.  All of our dogs are working on their crate training.  TO ADOPT:    The adoption fee for this dog is $475, which includes the cost of routine vetting, including vaccinations, spay/neuter, and heartworm treatment.  If you are interested in adopting, please complete the Adoption Questionnaire online at bit.ly/adoptaluckydog   Lucky Dog Animal Rescue does our best to provide accurate information about the dogs we have for adoption. That said, we cannot make any guarantees about age, breed or temperament.   Thank you for contacting Lucky Dog Animal Rescue and helping to save a life!  Please visit us online at    www.luckydoganimalrescue.org   .    BE A FOSTER!!!    Fosters make it possible for Lucky Dog Animal Rescue to save and care for homeless and abandoned dogs!  To learn about fostering, please contact    fostering@luckydoganimalrescue.org   !

Story
  Some dogs come into rescue scared, shut down, or uncertain. And then there are dogs like Ralphie… the ones who somehow still choose love. This beautiful boy was found wandering as a stray in a rural Tennessee county — underweight, homeless, and with every reason in the world not to trust people. But from the moment he was safe, Ralphie did the exact opposite. He leaned in. He loved harder. He quietly showed everyone around him what a truly special soul looks like. At only 10 months old, this Min Pin/Kelpie mix already carries the heart of an old friend. The kind of dog who watches your face carefully, stays close without asking for anything, and seems to understand emotions in a way that almost doesn’t feel possible. Ralphie is the dog who would sit beside you through heartbreak, grief, loneliness, or hard days without ever leaving your side. He has the heart of a therapist wrapped inside the body of a young, goofy, loving pup. And despite whatever his past looked like, Ralphie has blossomed almost overnight in foster care. In just one week, he learned the doggie door, crate training, leash walking, house manners, and how to trust that kindness was finally here to stay. He wants so badly to be a “good boy,” and honestly… he already is. Ralphie currently weighs about 27 pounds and will likely fill out to around 30 pounds as an adult. He is wonderful with dogs, cats, chickens, kids, and every person he meets. No drama. No aggression. No chaos. Just a sweet, grateful dog who wants a family to love with his whole heart. Some dogs are pets.Some dogs are companions.And then once in a while, a dog like Ralphie comes along — a soul dog. The kind you remember forever. If you think you might be the person meant for Ralphie, please email Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrtennessee@gmail.com and tell us where you live so we can send you an adoption application. Please share. Somewhere out there is the family whose life is about to change because of this boy. ❤️   PLEASE NOTE:  Our dogs are transported from Tennessee to meeting places in the states where we have posted.  Further information about us is given on our Adopt-A-Pet site.  The adoption fees vary and will be provided as well as noted on the application you receive.  Contact us at 615-661-5333 or ccrnewengland@gmail.comJune 6, 2026, 11:18 am

Luckily, she was rescued right before euthanasia by the rescue team and sent to her foster home 2 months later. Her foster family has been taking good care of her since, and she’s been living peacefully with the resident dog. LeeJu is now more than ready for a furever home! • Personality: Friendly, Curious, Cautious LeeJu is such a friendly and lovable pup with a curious and cautious personality.

She doesn’t respond to barking dogs as well.

Otherwise, she’s healthy! 💙 Adoption Fee Information The adoption fee already includes all major expenses, such as: International transportation, Customs and export documentation, Medical care (spay surgery, vaccinations, health certificate, deworming, etc.) For this reason, we kindly ask that you refrain from requesting a breakdown or negotiation of the adoption fee.
