Story
Whiskey is a high-energy, fun-loving and cuddly pug/min-pin. She loves attention and is great with kids. She would most likely need time to warm up to another pet because she is a bit timid but never aggressive towards animals or people. I am placing her with a rehoming fee that includes her kennel, and toys and a bag of food. Most importantly, the decision to rehome is because I just don’t have the time I used to have for her before having a baby and my child’s needs are increasing and my time for my pup is limited. She deserves to play all day until she passes out with her tongue out. I got her from a family friend who moved out of state and fell in love with her but things unfortunately changed.

Story
Pip is the Energizer Bunny in a dog's body! Under this cute, scrunchy face is a smart, active, Alpha dog. He loves other dogs and playing fetch. He is a quick learner-knows "sit" and "shake", working on "stay" and "lie down", great eye contact and focus to learn, his love of treats and toys helps a lot! He is fantastic in the car, so if you are looking for a dog for adventure-running, hiking, travel, this is the guy for you. He's not a big snuggler or couch potato, he's active 95% of the time. The ideal home for him would be one with a fenced yard, great with kids but older kids would be best due to his need for activity and high energy playfulness. Dog friends would be great, he definitely needs a very active environment, cats would not be a great fit for him. Housebroken and crate trained.

Story
Avie is new but she’s shown us that she’s a great gal. She learned how to sit quickly & is making progress on shaking hands. She is beautiful & has a very soft coat. She is attracted to kids & wiggles all over when she sees them!! Her favorite time of the day is when she’s in a yard & she has a toy to play with. She entertains herself by playing with the toy & would be happiest with a fenced yard. HART Homepage: https://hart90.org/ Questions About this Animal?

Story
Primrose, Princeton and Percival's mom was abandoned at a home when her previous owners moved out. She was left out on a chain to fend for herself. Luckily the neighbors realized she had been left behind and took her in. She was in horrible physical condition and pregnant by to neighborhood stray (a black lab) that would jump the fence when she was in heat. It was reported by the neighbors that these 2 had had multiple litters together but none of the puppies ever survived. The neighbors children fell in love with mom and they are keeping her but needed help rehoming her very last litter (we assisted in getting her spayed). These pups are the most laid back and chill group I have ever seen.

Boston Terrier Miniature Pinscher

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Good with kids, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Gigi is a loving, affectionate, and often cuddly dog who wants nothing more than to snuggle next to you all curled up in a ball and to be where you are at all times. She will thrive with a person or family who can give her a bit of room to roam, regular long walks, and attention. Gigi is so calm in her snuggly state that she has even sat in a ball up on someone’s desk, and a recliner or couch or bed or floor are all equally fine to her. Gigi does well with older children, say 6 and older. She has allowed herself to be dressed up to play with them. When around other dogs or outside she is an active explorer and can be very enthusiastic about where she wants to go (note: this translates to pulling that can be quite sudden or hard, so she should only be walked be someone experienced who can manage a sudden strong jerk on the leash.) Gigi has only occasionally made a play for food around the house, mostly when bored, though be aware that she is very capable of thrusting so strongly with her tiny legs that she can make it up to a dining room table! This only happened 1-2 times but I have to share so no one loses their dinner unaware! She can also be an excellent guard dog as she is alert to noises outside and will bark back accordingly; as a result she would probably do better in a neighborhood or community with some space for quiet. We're still evaluating her around cats. Gender: Spayed Female Approx. DOB:  8/9/2017 Weight: about 20 poundsPLEASE NOTE:  we only adopt to residents of the DC metro area, which includes DC, Prince Georges and Montgomery Counties in MD, and Arlington, Fairfax, Prince William, and Loudoun Counties in VA.

Story
Please contact Ashley Castillo (ashley.castillo@luckydoganimalrescue.org) for more information about this pet.Sweet boy looking for a family to snuggle with! MARCO NEEDS A FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME!!!! Name:   Marco          Best Guess for Breed:   Boston Terrier Mix    Best Guess for Age:   2 years as of October 2026          SEX:   Male   Approximate Weight:   30 lbs   Gets Along With:  Other dogs! We haven't seen them with cats or kids but we are happy to discuss integration techniques with any potential adopters!   Currently Living at:   Puerto Rico Shelter. Looking for forever home or foster!!   Special adoption considerations:  Dogs from Puerto Rico have a major transition to go through when they arrive and will need humans who are very committed to socialization. We think Marco would do best with either a resident dog or a family who can make sure he can go on walks regularly with other dogs, visit the dog park, or go to doggie daycare to learn the ropes.   Manolo is Looking For:    A loving family to help him discover just how wonderful life can be! This handsome Boston Terrier is currently in Puerto Rico and is ready to trade shelter life for a home of his own.   Marco has so much ahead of him to experience—from cozy dog beds and neighborhood walks to new friends, fun toys and family adventures. Because much of this will be new to him, he needs patient adopters who understand and introduce him gradually and positively to different people, dogs, places, sounds and situations.   Marco would love plenty of exercise, enrichment and opportunities to use that clever mind. Training classes would be a wonderful way for him to bond with his new humans while learning the skills he needs to thrive. Consistency, encouragement and lots of praise will help him blossom into his best self.   Above all, Marco wants humans who will stand beside him as his world grows bigger. In return, he promises a lifetime of love, laughter and loyal companionship. Is Marco the new family member you have been waiting for?     What My Foster Says About Me:   Coming soon! 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.

That said, we cannot make any guarantees about age, breed or temperament.   Thank you for contacting Lucky Dog Animal Rescue and helping to save a life!  Please visit us online at      www.luckydoganimalrescue.org   .    BE A FOSTER!!!
