Story
Just like the great outdoors, Mother Nature is a heart worm survivor that is calming, joyful, and full of life. This 2 year old Rhodesian Ridgeback / Black Mouth Cur mix is a sweet girl with a heart as big as her happy tail (and trust us, that tail never stops wagging!). Mother Nature loves to dance her way into your heart, especially when snacks are involved. Treats are her love language, and she’s always eager to show off her moves for a reward. She has a healthy dose of youthful energy and would do best with a family who can help her burn energy through walks, playtime, or fun adventures.

Story
Wrangler is being fostered in PA.Wrangler has some limited vision.Wrangler here with an update on me, foster Mommy said I had to do it since they did some new tests on me. First, I am a big boy at almost 1.5 years old now! Anyway, I have Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBD) which they are treating with low fat food and watching my diet. Also, my B12 is low so foster Mommy gives me a shot every 3 weeks. I do great with the shot, she gives it while I am eating and I could care less cause I just want my food lolAlso, something that goes with the IBD thingy is anxiety and I try, but am scared of new things. I like to go slow meeting new ones. I can’t tell my foster Mommy why, but I’m scared of men. We are working on all this. I am great at home and I don’t do anything in the house when foster Mommy leaves because I have other doggies I am with. So as long as I am not alone, I am ok. We are trying Prozac to see if this will help relax me enough to get over my fears because I am a sweetie, really! And, I just love cuddling on the couch with foster Mommy and sleeping in bed with her. Even though I can stretch out and take up leg room at times hee heeBDRA has voted against the use of electrical fencing effective immediately.

Story
Volt is being fostered in NC. Volt has some vision. update Volt is doing well! He lives for cuddles at night before going to bed in his crate. During the day he has one speed and that is lightning fast. His favorite treat is carrots and he will do anything for them but lay down, lol. He has a pretty good recall and knows sit. He is fully potty trained and goes to the back door when he needs to go out. He plays so gently with his foster mom's mini aussies and rough and tumble with Elektra (corso) and Trigger (lab). Volt had some grand mal seizures that were caused by Simparica Trio. These lasted about 3 weeks with lingering focal seizures. He is still on keppra and he's doing great! He has not had any seizures in the last 3 months. BDRA has voted against the use of electrical fencing effective immediately

Story
Our amazing foster has raised these nuggets by hand from 5 days old-bottles, changing, bathing, clipping, snuggling, playing-all of it. There are six siblings, and they’re all pretty different in temperament. They came into the shelter without their Mama, and they’re Bitsa pups-bitsa this and that. First up is Anne, we call her Annie. Named for a frontier scout during the Revolutionary War. Our little Annie is a brave, independent girl. She will grow into a faithful companion, but she will test your boundaries through adolescence. She plays hard and loves hard. Annie will be best suited where she can grow into a leadership role. Annie is 7 weeks old. She will be spayed at 8-9 weeks, vaccinated and dewormed to age, and available for adoption thereafter.
