Story
Peanut is a high energy dog with an amazing personality. He is super sweet, loving, and goofy. He loves running around outside at full blast, playing keep away, chasing small animals. 85lbs, 2.5 yrs old. He has no aggression whatsoever towards people, including small children. No food guarding or anxiety. However he does have a very strong prey drive. He’s ok with birds and squirrels, but rabbits still drive him crazy and he has caught a few. He is fairly well trained, and we do our best to enforce core commands daily with treats. We have a small toddler, Peanut’s size and energy have become frightening. We’re barely able to keep up with his energy needs with multiple walks a day, backyard keepaway chases, chew toys, food puzzles, and weekly day care. He has never been aggressive towards our son, but he has knocked him over very hard in his high energy excitement. Our goal is to find someone with a large property and a very active lifestyle so Peanut can live his best life.

My daughter has moved to Arizona and couldn't take the dog. I am elderly and partially disabled and have 2 other older/elderly dogs. The dog is 7 months old and has more energy than I am able to handle. I am hoping to find a new place for him. Thank you for your time and help.

Story
Meet Waffles! 🐾Waffles is a loving, energetic 4-year-old rescue from originally from Texas (adopted in 2021 in CT) looking for her forever home. She loves to play, cuddle, and be close to her people. She is crate trained (crate included), knows several commands, and responds well to a beep collar on walks.Waffles would do best as the only pet in the home. While she has lived with another dog, they have occasionally had conflicts over food and toys. She has done well with older children (10+), but has not been around younger children.This is a heartbreaking decision, but due to an upcoming move, I can no longer keep her. She is a wonderful companion and will bring so much love to the right family.Adoption fee will go toward her final veterinary visit before adoption. ❤️

Story
We had gotten Layla as a puppy. She is 3 years old. She loves to snuggle, she’s very calm and very much a couch potato until she is outside! She’s a fast learner. She’s always been able to go out in our fenced in yard. She has always been nervous walking down busy roads! She is good with larger dogs - just not while she eats! No small She likes her privacy. She’s good with my two cats and one is a wild kitten! She is good with older kids/teenagers but she is nervous with younger children as they’re unpredictable. She would do SO well as an only dog as she loves her attention and I just cannot provide all the attention she needs with my little one and now 3 of my step children in the house. We had rehomed her to a really lovely home but they are moving out of state and could not take her with them. I don’t want her going to a shelter so we took her back in for the time being. Layla is such a smart, loyal girl. I would really love to see her go to a home who would make her their world!

Story
Callie is a 3.5 year old spayed female, pitbull mix. Very energetic and affectionate. We have had her since she was a few months old and are heartbroken to have to rehome her. Sadly, she has bitten guests at our home twice and has bitten our other dog several times. Usually this behavior occurs when she is excited/over-stimulated. She loves her humans and prefers to be around us as much as possible, definitely gets anxious when we leave the house. We crate her when we leave the house to curb anxious chewing. Callie loves cuddling, playing outside, and food. She has lots of energy and love to give, but requires some patience and attention. We feel Callie would best succeed in a home without other pets or young children, but with humans able to give her ample time & attention

Story
Hi! My name is Bella and I am half Chihuahua and half Dachshund, so I am a Chiweenie! Well, I may be half this and half that, but I am completely full of love and affection! I need a new home and I only weigh 11 pounds so I wouldn't take up much space, I adore humans and especially like to go on walks. I am curious and love to go, go, go! I have really good manners and am very gentle when given my treats to eat. I don't snap or grab. I am a sweet and gentle little lady who is begging you to consider me as your next fur baby. I do love other dogs and have no problem being one of the pack. Please reach out for me! I would be forever grateful with a forever home with you !

Story
This absolutely adorable, tender sweet little girl is Mochi! She came into the pound with her two 6 month old pups when their owner was unable to keep their pups any longer. Everyone felt so terrible for this tiny little family and did everything they could to advocate for them and get them out of the crowded shelter and to safety! Thankfully, that’s when their amazing foster home stepped in! This darling young lady is 18 months old and is full grown. She has gone into the vets and had everything completed! She’s now current on vaccines, deworming, preventative, and she’s tested negative for heartworm. She has also been microchipped and spayed! She’s healthy as can be and ready to find true love! Mochi is an absolutely tender, sweet doll. She came in and was sad to have lost her family, and a little shy, but so sweet with everyone. The next day her two daughters arrived and this girl was soooooo happy to see her babies! She immediately began to play and was just so happy. She’s settled in so beautifully now and is absolutely thriving. She is fantastic with all other dogs she meets, she’s great with cats, and has fantastic house manners. She is both housetrained to go potty outside and will also use pee pads. She is a perfect sofa snuggler and loves to cuddle up beside you or in your lap to watch a movie, or snuggle with you in bed. She has a more tender, loving, submissive personality and longs for easy going, gentle, loving parents! She will be fine as an only pup, though would love a doggy friend as she does thrive with that connection (maybe even one of her daughters!). She enjoys little toys, little walks, tons of snuggles, and the love a devoted home will give. Shes absolutely beautiful with so much character in her ears! Shes a petite little beauty loving to be held and truly cherished. If this amazing little girl has stolen your heart and you’d love to make her dreams come true, please visit www.greatdivideanimalrescue.org and submit an application for adoption today!! **NOTE** to ensure prompt response- please go directly to our website (www.greatdivideanimalrescue.org) to apply, or email (inquiries.rescuematch@aol.com) directly with any questions to ensure your inquiry/application is received by our organization.

Story
From a Storm Drain to a Second Chance... Meet Whiskey - The Smiling Survivor. Some puppies never get the chance to know what it feels like to be safe, loved, or wanted. This precious little boy was found alone in a storm drain—tiny, terrified, desperately sick, and covered in fleas. His little body was so weak that we honestly weren't sure he would survive. But this brave puppy had other plans. He fought! Day by day, he grew stronger. His sad eyes began to sparkle, his tiny tail started to wag, and the playful puppy he was always meant to be finally emerged. Now Whiskey is 3 months old and weighs 9 pounds. He's absolutely everything a puppy should be—goofy, joyful, curious, and full of life. He loves everyone he meets and is wonderful with dogs, cats, and children. His favorite things are playing, exploring, giving kisses, and soaking up every bit of love he can find. After everything he's overcome, this sweet boy isn't looking for perfection. Whisky is simply looking for someone who will never let him feel abandoned again. He survived the storm drain. He survived being so sick that we feared the worst. Now all he needs is a family to call his own. Could you be the happy ending this little fighter has been waiting for? Adopt this sweet survivor, and watch him fill your home with laughter, love, and gratitude every single day.
