Story
My world revolves around exploring, playing, and making everyone around me laugh with my goofy antics. I'm as curious as they come, always sniffing out new adventures and friends. I love a good cuddle session and I'm as loyal as they come. My playful nature keeps things lively, but I also know when it's time to be gentle. I'm a happy-go-lucky guy with a heart full of love to give. I'm looking for a forever home where I can share my sweetness and loyalty. I am interested in learning new things so training will be fun. I promise to be your best friend, your confidant, and your loyal companion. Adopt me and let's start our adventure together!

Story
Besides the fact that this darling little girl is adorable, she's also a lot of fun to have around! She's energetic! She's playful! She's affectionate! She is house trained, and she is kennel trained. She walks very nicely on leash. She's wonderful with children. She would make an excellent hiking partner Would be perfect for a family who spends time outdoors! She's in a foster home in Memphis Tennessee. Once an application has been submitted and approved, the foster family would be happy to speak with you and tell you all about her! Once adopted, she will travel on rescue vet transport to the north east. They travel each weekend, leaving Memphis, Tennessee, Friday morning at 6 AM and traveling to the northeast delivering newly adopted pets. They travel as far north as West Greenwich, Rhode Island. Transport is an additional $185. You will find that our volunteer team is very responsive so please submit your application only when you're ready to adopt your new pet!

***THIS IS A COURTESY POST -- Jess is not an Animal Aid dog, and is not at the shelter. Please email, call, or text Jess's caretakers with questions/to schedule a meeting. (757) 812-3743 text or call Kylie Jess is 8 years. Is very cautious around new people and dogs. She is mildly active and not a huge cuddler but will take belly rubs whenever there's a chance. Jess is a little skittish and does not have patience with small children so she will work best with a family without small children. She is super loving and sweet once she warms up to her new environment. Rabies and distemper vaccines are up to date.Interested? Come for a visit any day of the week - 365 days a year between 9am - 12pm. Hope to see you soon!PLEASE NOTE: Animal Aid Society observes a 40 mile adoption radius to facilitate post adoption support and follow ups.

Story
Kimberly ended up in a rural shelter with her puppies, and she was a wonderful mom. Her puppies look like little golden retriever puppies, and she kept them safe and warm and well fed. It was clear that no one was feeding her enough because she is very thin but that did not stop her from giving and giving to her puppies! . We would love to get Kimberly into a foster home because we suspect she has gone through a lot keeping watch over her puppies. She is very clean in her kennel and does not chew on anything, Given how thin she is, Kimberly is very food motivated. Please consider this girl as a foster or to adopt. It is her time now! Thank you for your interest in Kimberly! Please visit www.hart90.org/petdetail.aspx?ID=17089 to get the most up-to-date and accurate information on this pet, to email the contact person listed for more information and how to meet Kimberly, or to submit an online application. HART adopts to the local DC/VA/MD metro area only. Visit our website for more information about our adoption process.
