Story
Whiskey...jeans...Zara. Three things that undoubtedly get better with age. Our sweet Zara thought she had it all figured out: a loving home, a mom she adored, and an endless supply of toys. This is how Zara spent the last 12 years before life stepped in to remind her that sometimes our best-laid plans go awry. In Zara's case, life's lessons were about bureaucracy and stigmas. You see, Zara's mom needed to move abroad to a country that does not permit blocky headed dogs. This is where we stepped in helping Zara find the perfect home for her sugar face years. Since Zara has been in a loving home her whole life, she comes to you housetrained and with good leash skills. She also comes to you with an abundance of love to give and the kind of affection that house hippos are known for. Now, girlfriend does have some pep in her step when it comes to playing tug and fetch, but her overall vibe is chill. If you're looking for a calm girl that couch snuggles with the best of them, Zara is your girl!! Questions About this Animal?

Story
Poe (AKA the fastest little dog in the county) is ready to meet his new best friend! Fast, curious, and playful, Poe would make the perfect companion for anyone interested in a friendly charmer. Poe has a desire to follow you around as you go about your day and picking up any food scraps you drop in the process. ❤️🥓 Poe’s favorite way to spend his energy is by going on walks and expertise with his human although he’d enjoy being included in any activity. 🐾🐕 Perhaps he’d like to show you all his traits, feel free to take him for a stroll or ask more about this friendly fella! ❣️🦴

These pups are in Washington, District of Columbia too!

Story
❗Current Location: in a foster home in South Korea❗ Meet Leeju👋 She was found on the street in South Korea at just 2 months old and sent to a high-risk city shelter along with her four siblings. 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. Her energy level is mid-low as she mostly chills in a kennel at home and prefers to have light walkies mainly for the bathroom. • Affinity with - Dogs: Super friendly with other dogs as long as they are not too large or aggressive. She doesn’t respond to barking dogs as well. She currently lives with a resident dog in her foster home, so she will be a good fit for a family with other furry companions. - Cats: Good with cats. - Adults/Kids: Good with both adults & kids. She is calm even when kids pet her. • Walking Manners: Well-mannered! • Housetrained: Fully housebroken, mainly using the bathroom outdoors but sometimes indoors when she can’t go outside. • Bathing/Brushing: Very good. • Car Rides: Not anymore. She got better at car rides. Her foster tries to walk her for potty before jumping into the car. • Separation Anxiety: None. • Shedding level (1~10): 5-6 • Barks/Howls: A little bit towards continued noise from outside the house. • Appetite/Food Allergies: She likes any sort of food! / No food allergies. • Likes/Dislikes: She loves being petted on her face while snuggling up to your side! / She feels cold easily due to her short coat. If you have an open heart and a loving home for Leeju, please don't hesitate to apply!

Story
Please contact Mamie Hall (mamie.hall@luckydoganimalrescue.org) for more information about this pet.She's the cherry on top! CHERRY NEEDS A FOREVER HOME!!!!   Come meet Cherry and other great adoptable dogs this Sunday (10/19) from 12-3 pm at the PetSmart in Falls Church, VA (6100A Arlington Blvd, Falls Church, VA 22044)!     Name: Cherry         Best Guess for Breed:  Min pin mix  Best Guess for Age: 6 years as of October 2024       SEX: Female   Approximate Weight: 12 lbs   Gets Along With:   Large dogs! She hasn't lived with cats that we know of, but she has tried to chase outdoor cats. She hasn't lived with kids as far as we are aware. We are happy to discuss integration techniques with potential adopters!   Currently Living at:   DC foster home   About Cherry: This sweetie with the incredible ears was abandoned and ended up in a shelter in Texas. She immediately closed that chapter with a bang and eagerly jumped into her next one - a shelter foster home in Texas. Her Texas foster described her as energetic, always liking to move around -  hey she may be 6 or so but small dogs' batteries last a LONG time and she's ready to go! She loves walks, loves car rides. She lived with a 80-pound poodle in that foster home and did well with him. She knows the command 'come' and when called, will come right away.   And she was just so loving, so happy to be with her Texas foster. Her foster said she's the type who does well with a lot of attention, a lot of time with her humans.  What she wants most of all is to be safe and loved for all her days. In exchange, you get a happy, loving, active little girl eager to trot by your side and then curl up against your lap. What do you say? Is Cherry the one for your home and your heart? What My DC Area Foster Says About Me:  Cherry loves walks - really LOVES walks and sniffing. But she can chill too - she's curled up on a dog bed at my feet as I type this. She's confident in the home - she walked in like she'd been here all her life. And she utterly loves being next to me, getting pets.  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 $460, which includes the cost of routine vetting, including vaccinations and transport from the shelter.
