Story
Please contact Caitlin Finn (caitlin.finn@luckydoganimalrescue.org) for more information about this pet.handsome young boy ISO happily ever after! HT NEEDS A FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME!!!!   Come meet HT and other great adoptable dogs this Sunday (Feb. 8th) from 12-3 pm at the PetSmart in Rockville (5154 Nicholson Ln, Kensington, MD 20895)!     Name:  HT       Best Guess for Breed:   Pointer mix  Best Guess for Age:  6 years as of January 2026         SEX:   Male   Approximate Weight:  67 lbs   Gets Along With:  HT likes other dogs and needs to go to a home with a friendly resident dog. We haven't seen him with cats but are happy to discuss integration techniques with any interested adopters. HT should not go to a home with children under the age of 12.   Currently Living at:  DC area home   Special adoption considerations:    HT can be a little nervous and needs to go to a home with a welcoming resident dog who will show him that all is well!   All about HT:   HT arrived into our care back in 2020 and was adopted out to a loving home. He has been very well taken care of! His previous humans say he's a sweetie who really likes being around his people. In the home, he's a good boy whose crate is his safe space. He returns to his crate on command with 'Time for bed,' and sleeps there overnight. He also stayed in his crate when his humans were out of the house.   He loves his walkies! Likes to pull a bit ahead, taking in all the scenery. He doesn't react to other dogs or people - maybe a quick sniff but that's it. Off leash with other dogs, he likes playing chase and running. Wrestling and roughhousing isn't his thing - he prefers open play. (He would not be the best fit for a home with a resident dog who likes rough play.)   He is long out of the puppy yips and knows what he loves - walks, adventures, his people, a chill home, a friendly resident dog who will show him the ropes, his people. And don't forget his people. He is eager to once again love and be loved, to bestow upon his people all those adoring gazes he's stockpiling. What do you say? Is HT the one you see by your side? 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 spay/neuter.

Story
Toffee is a 3.5–4-month-old, 20lb puppy, who’s all legs, sweetness, and curiosity. She’s a fun, gentle girl with a naturally shy side, but her confidence grows more each day as she learns about the world around her. She’s currently thriving in a busy foster home with two female resident dogs, three cats, and two teenagers ... she’s handling the everyday chaos beautifully. Toffee is doing great with both house-training and crate-training, and she absolutely loves playing with other dogs. Because Toffee takes cues from confident pups, she will do best in a home with a friendly, well-adjusted dog companion who can help show her the ropes. She’s still learning polite manners with cats (she’s more playful than they prefer), but she’s eager to please and making steady progress with guidance. Toffee is a loving, thoughtful puppy who will blossom in a patient home that can continue building her confidence and helping her shine. Fostered in Evans, GA Available for adoption throughout much of the U.S. via our transport program Adoption Inquiry Form (copy and paste into browser) https://form.jotform.com/211295763938164
