Story
Meet Bubba! Rescued from a high-kill shelter, this is a big, lovable, playful guy who could be the newest companion to your pack!  With soulful eyes and a tail that wags for days, this four-year-old darling is a sweetheart who just wants to find and be with his people.  He is very house-trained, working on being crate-trained (going well), knows his name, “sit" and “down," and is non-destructive when left alone. Bubba is a polite house guest. He doesn’t bark at dogs or people as they walk by, both when he’s in the house or whenever out on walks.  Attentive and affectionate, Bubba is happiest on walks or runs, playing in the yard, chewing on his toys and lounging on the couch with his people. He is a big lap dog who loves to show love and get love in return. Though he is large, he is well-behaved enough for an apartment, as long as he gets enough exercise. But if he had his preference he would love a bit of yard to go along with his walks. (And he is always down for a walk!) He is an active guy who will walk/run/play hard and nap hard. He loves to romp around in the yard, sniff everything, play fetch, and has shown to be interested but not aggressive toward wildlife. He is eager to please, food motivated (good for training) and is a champ in the car. He responds well with firm/calm direction but also handles the noise of (a lot of) kids, play and laughter with ease. Bubba needs a loving household and a person/family who will continue to train him and treat him kindly. Bubba would be happy as your only dog or with another playful dog or dogs. He has socialized well with other medium and large dogs. He shows no food aggression or resource guarding. He would do well with younger and older kids alike. He isn’t totally aware of his size but will remind you of it when he gets excited, pushes into you for attention or play or when he lays on you for cuddles. With his loving and playful heart, Bubba is ready to find a forever family who will love him. Adoption fee: $525, includes all shots, sterilized, heartworm negative, dewormed, flea preventative, microchip   If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application and a representative will get back to you shortly to answer any questions you may have. The adoption policies and applications can be found at the following links: https://fancycats.org/adopt-a-cat and https://fancycats.org/adopt-a-dog.

See our calendar of adoption events at https://fancycats.org/(scroll towards bottom) You can save animals like this one by becoming a foster! Fosters are like bridges between high kill shelters and forever homes. We need fosters so that we can save cats and dogs before they are euthanized at the shelters.

Story
Meet Doug — the perfect house guest with a gentle heart.Doug is the definition of a sweet, easygoing companion. He loves cuddling and is happiest when he’s close by, soaking up all the affection you’re willing to give. He’ll happily lean in for pets or wag his tail to let you know just how much your attention means to him.On walks, Doug is calm, attentive, and well-mannered on leash — a true pleasure to handle. At home, he enjoys playing with his toys and entertaining himself with a gentle, happy enthusiasm. When you’re away, you can rest easy knowing he’s fully potty-trained and content to relax on his bed for several hours.Doug already knows “sit” and is eager to keep learning, especially with a patient, encouraging person by his side. Around other dogs, he’s a bit unsure — curious, but cautious — and prefers to take things slow while he builds confidence at his own pace.If you’re looking for a lovable softie who brings comfort, calm, and quiet joy wherever he goes, Doug is your guy. With kindness, reassurance, and a cozy place to land, this slightly timid sweetheart is ready to blossom into a loyal, devoted best friend.

She’s crate and potty trained! Story: Precious comes to us from a shelter in Alabama. We are so happy to have her safe and sound in a foster home in the DC area now. Precious is a sweetie who loves people and gets along great with other dogs and puppies. She knows just how to get comfortable up on the couch with her humans, and will love to join you on walks and trots around the neighborhood. Precious is just looking for someone to be her new best furend and we know that she will repay them with endless amounts of love and tail wags. Like all dogs, Precious will need an adopter who is committed to setting her up for success by enrolling in obedience training and exercising her both mentally and physically. She will also need love, patience, and socialization in order to thrive! The fee to adopt Precious is $475. That covers the cost of all her vaccines, her spay, the collar she’s wearing, her transport to DC and her care in her foster home. She’s up to date on all age appropriate vaccines.

Story
Meet Remmington   Remmington is a sweet, gentle male Pointer mix who’s had a rough start but is ready for a fresh beginning. He was picked up by animal control after being found roaming alone in a business parking lot, likely abandoned or neglected. Despite everything he’s been through, Remmington’s kind heart still shines through.   Remmington is timid and shy at first, especially with strangers, but that’s completely understandable given his past. With a little patience and a calm environment, he begins to relax and show his sweet, sensitive personality. He will do best with adopters who understand that trust takes time—and that the reward is incredibly special.   He recently had a veterinary evaluation and was diagnosed with dermatitis caused primarily by flea allergies, which is already being treated with medication. This condition is manageable, and Remmington is on the path to feeling much more comfortable.   Remmington would thrive in:   A quiet, stable home A patient adopter willing to let him decompress at his own pace A home that understands shy dogs and uses gentle, positive reinforcement     This boy has clearly known hardship, but he hasn’t lost his capacity to love. With the right person, Remmington will blossom into a loyal, devoted companion. To apply visit Pepspalsrescue.org/adopt ##2620065##
