Story
Coffee is a 4-year-old, spayed female Pit/Ridgeback mix who is ready to find her forever family. Due to unexpected personal circumstances, I’m no longer able to care for her long term. Coffee is both crate trained and fully house trained. She has a solid obedience foundation and knows recall, place, heel, center, sit, down, and out. She walks beautifully on a loose leash, even in busy city environments, and is comfortable navigating crowded streets. She has no known health issues and is up to date on preventive medications for heartworm, fleas, and ticks. Coffee does well being home alone during the workweek (about 8 hours a day). She enjoys playing tug, going for walks, and especially loves car rides. Most of all, she is sweet, affectionate, and loves being around people. Coffee would do best in a stable home that can give her consistent love, attention, and companionship.

Story
Hi, I’m Chi, and I've got soft-boy charm! At first I’ll size you up like a seasoned diplomat, but once you’ve passed the sniff test (bonus points if you brought treats), I’m all in for cuddles and goofy play. I’m great with other dogs and kind humans, including kids, and I’ve been fully vetted, vaccinated, and neutered—basically, I’m a gentleman in a tux. If you’re the type who respects a slow warm-up and then welcomes the most loyal sidekick you’ll ever meet, I’ve got your back (and your couch). I'm still in Qatar, but can be transported to an approved foster or adopter. I can't wait to meet you!

These pups are in Alexandria, Virginia too!

Story
Current Location: Midlothian, VA Hello! My name is Jonesy! I arrived to OPH on 2/27 from a shelter in Alabama. This is what they said about me! Jonesy has been waiting for his chance at a home since he was just a tiny puppy. He watched his litter mates and even his mama find their forever families. But Jonesy is still waiting. And he can’t help but wonder… what did I do wrong? The truth is — nothing. Absolutely nothing. Jonesy is a gentle, sensitive soul. The kind of dog who doesn’t have a mean bone in his body. He’s not loud. He’s not pushy. He’s not the one jumping up demanding attention. He’s the one sitting nearby, hoping you notice him. ✨ Housetrained ✨ Crate-trained ✨ Good with dogs ✨ Good with cats ✨ Sweet, soft, and submissive He is a little shy at first, but once he feels safe, his sweet personality shines through. Because of his sensitive nature, he would do best with a confident dog friend to help show him the ropes and remind him that the world is a safe place. Jonesy doesn’t need the spotlight. He doesn’t need chaos. He just needs someone to choose him. He has been ready. He has been good. He has been waiting. Now he just needs his turn. Now I'm in VA! My new foster mom says I need a fenced yard in a quiet neighborhood to feel safe. I like playing with toys and give sweet kisses. Please check back soon for more updates on my personality, along with new photos and videos. I’m looking for my forever family! Is that with you? If so please click “apply for adoption” or submit an application through the Adopt tab. Let’s get our family started!
