Story
Please contact Kady Hammer (KadyH@luckydoganimalrescue.org) for more information about this pet.He oif the magnificent ears! GRANT NEEDS A FOREVER HOME!!!! Come meet Grant and other great adoptable dogs this Sunday (Dec. 3) from 12-3 pm at the Petsmart in Alexandria (3351 Richmond Hwy, Alexandria, VA 22305)!   Name:   Grant          Best Guess for Breed:     Terrier mix     Best Guess for Age:   7 months as of November 2023        SEX:  Male   Estimated Weight (puppies' weights change quickly!):   26 lbs as of 11/19/23 Gets Along With: Most puppies are in the prime of their socialization window and will do well with other dogs, cats and kids so long as they receive patience and proper training.   Check out video of this cutie here! https://youtube.com/shorts/fPaHwdxQSnY?feature=share https://youtube.com/shorts/K1P_Fm8Cdrg   Currently Living at:  DC area foster home. Grant is Looking For:   First, we need to discuss those ears. Aren't they magnificent? They probably can pick up messages from outer space. Now - this cutie is at the tail end of puppyhood and wants what all puppies want - play time and snuggles! He has all that awesome young-dog energy for long sniffy walks, romps in the park, and all the adventures his new humans can dream up, and he wants to make new pup and people pals along the way. He hasn't seen nearly enough of the world yet and wants to explore it all! Mountains, beaches, pet shops to see all the toys - yes, please! But most of all, he wants to know he's safe and loved and under his own roof. In exchange, he promises adoring gazes, lots of tail wags, and loyal companionship for all his days.  What do you say? Does Grant get to grow up with you? Are those ears the one you can see yourself waking up to every morning for many, many mornings to come? What My Foster Says About Me: Grant has been staying with us for over a week now. He quickly adjusted to our routine and instantly became friends with my husband, our dog and even the neighbors and their dogs. He continues to do great and is a very good boy. Still no potty accidents and is doing great in a crate. We went to couple dog parks and he did awesome. A big zoomer! he wants to befriend with everyone (people and dogs). Toys and peanut butter are his fave and can keep him occupied for a very long time. He is an energetic pup and after a long walk or a playtime he enjoys cuddles and snuggles with us or his foster brother. Very curious guy so sometimes pulls a bit on the leash as he wants to explore and introduce himself to everyone. Wonderful puppy that deserves a loving family and lots of attention. We will all miss him dearly once he gets adopted as he grew very close to our hearts in a short period of time. Message from Grant: Hi, bring peanut butter, treatos and toys. Thanks TO ADOPT:       The adoption fee for this dog is $460, which includes the cost of routine vetting and transport from the shelter.    If you are interested in adopting, please complete the Adoption Questionnaire online bit.ly/adoptaluckydog   Lucky Dog Animal Rescue does our best to provide accurate information about the dogs we have for adoption.

Story
Male, 2 yrs old, 18 lbs Seasons Greetings Everyone! I would love to find my furever home for the holidays. Could it be you? Just look at me! I think I am pretty darn cute and pose really well for photos. My foster says it did not take me long to get comfortable and I love to cuddle, snuggle and play with squeaky balls. I do love to eat too, but I don't have any problems around other dogs. I do love to go to the dog park and love to meet all the dogs, but make sure it has great fencing since I love to explore and may try to sneak away when you are not looking. In addition to the dog park, I would love to go on walks with you. I get so excited meeting new people and dogs, you might think I might take of flying my tail wags so fast!!!! On the home front, I get along well with the other dog in my foster house, we pretty much ignore each other or play chase sometimes. I bark a little at loud noises, but not much and will settle down in my crate after a few minutes. I am proud to say that, so far, I have not had an accident in the house! Pretty cool, huh? I can even hold it for up to six hours by myself! I am looking forward to meeting you and hopefully bringing some holiday joy into your home. Love, Jovi If you are interested in meeting a dog or cat, we require an adoption application. If the animal has "HAS APPLICATION" listed, they are still available to receive additional applications but also may be in the process of being adopted soon. Apply for a DOG: http://www.citydogsrescuedc.org/adoptable-dogs.html Interested in saving more lives? Foster a dog today! Learn more, see our list of dogs needing foster, and apply, https://www.citydogsrescuedc.org/foster-a-city-dog.html City Dogs & City Kitties Rescue is a foster-based rescue in Washington, DC. We do not have a shelter. CDCK has a thorough adoption process to find the best possible fit for each of our dogs and cats (we do not operate under a first-come, first-served model). Upon accepting a new cat or dog into the organization, we provide a basic vet visit that includes necessary vaccinations, disease screenings, deworming, microchips, and spay/neuter for dogs six months and older. We do not provide a comprehensive medical exam before adoption. As a result, sickness, injury, and disability may exist unbeknownst to CDCK. City Dogs & City Kitties Rescue is not responsible for payment of any vet care, including known and unknown medical conditions once a cat or dog is adopted from us. Dog specific: Rabies, DHPP, and Bordetella vaccines. They are tested for HW, Lyme, Ehrlichia, Anaplasmosis. Most cats and dogs will have a house-training accident in the initial days in their new home and we cannot guarantee any pet is housebroken or crate trained. We also update our Facebook page daily with new cats and dogs.

Milly is a wild and crazy chick! Found as a stray, she was brought to the rescue where she has been thriving. She absolutely loves to play with all the dogs and cats so if you have another playful dog, that would be awesome. She is very high energy and a nice size fenced yard is our preference for her. She is approximately 15 months so still a pup really. She is crate trained, spayed, fully vaccinated, heart worm negative, microchipped and pee pad trained. What more could you ask for? Ready for immediate transport PLEASE NOTE THAT WE ARE LOCATED IN TENNESSEE AND YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO MEET OUR PETS PRIOR TO ADOPTION! ADOPTION FEE $700

Story
Meet Kira of the K litter! She is a spunky, brave terrier mix who is 10 weeks old and currently weighs about 10 pounds. She loves to play with other dogs and she can hold her own in a good game of tug of war. These pups are well socialized and eager to please. They are doing great in foster care: romping and playing and learning all aspects of puppy life and new rules. The K Pups are very active, full of vim and vigor. They will keep you and yours very entertained. Mom is 21 lbs and could be a minpin mix while dad is a total unknown. They are sleeping through the night in their crate, and learning the ropes of house training. These little pups have tons of personality and can't wait to find their forever homes. The adoption fee for this dog is $375, which helps with the cost of routine vet care. A spay/neuter deposit is required at time of adoption. **No extensions or exceptions will be made to the required spay/neuter date. Puppies require an adopter who is home a good part of the day to continue their training - no exceptions! They are up-to-date on age appropriate vaccines and preventatives and will need to be spayed/neutered at the age of 6 months. Please note, this pup's immune system will not be fully functioning until about 16 weeks of age and therefore, s/he is not suited for Apartment/Condo living or Town homes without a private fenced yard and will not be able to go to public places where s/he could possibly be exposed to the germs of unvaccinated dogs, such as PetSmart/PetCo and dog parks until s/he is 16 weeks old. Petconnect Rescue cannot guarantee the exact breed of any animal in our care. The breed listed is based on any background we may have been provided, and the general appearance of the animal at the time they enter our system. For more information, please email ekerwin@petconnectrescue.org **If you're viewing this on Petfinder, please visit www.petconnectrescue.org to complete our non-binding application.**
