Story
For questions about Lucy Lu, please contact nanza13@msn.com Lucy Lu wants nothing more than to be your best friend for life! This 2-year-old girl is sweet and playful. She loves digging up sticks, playing fetch, and having the "zoomies". She promises to always greet you excitedly like you're her favorite person in the world (because you will be!). Expect full-body wiggles, tail wags, and lots of kisses. Lucy Lu is also super smart and will gladly show off her tricks for a treat or some words of praise. She has impeccable house manners and is the perfect mix of chill and fun! Lucy Lu would do best in a quiet home with a fenced yard and without cats or small animals (she has a hard time telling the difference between a cat and a squirrel). Lucy Lu loves to play with other dogs and is more confident and comfortable in new situations if she has a doggy friend with her. She would love a dog sibling who likes to play and run as much as she does! Her ideal forever family is patient and understands she needs a bit of time to get used to new things and new people, but that once she does, you are in her heart forever.

Story
Bullet is 2 and a half years old. Purebred. We got him from a breeder (have AKC paperwork) when I had found out I was pregnant with our second. Now, just having our third, it has become too much to give him the attention he needs, and deserves. We did not have any experience w/ the breed prior to getting him. What I've learned about breed is stubbornness. We sent him off for a 2 week training course when he was 1, but no matter what- if there is food on the counter and you are not around- he will get it (in our experience). He is very set in his ways. Unfortunately, with my husband traveling so much for work, and me with our three young kids, I think its best for both Bullet and our family if he we can find him a family who can devote a lot of attention to him. I think the ideal family would have a lot of land for him to run and their time to give. He is all bark, which has been great when my husband is out of town, but he is afraid of most things, especially loud sounds.

Story
Foster Homes Needed! Do you have time and room in your life for a foster dog? http://www.muttloverescue.org/foster.html *****************   Some dogs come to us with very special needs and BamBam is one of those dogs.  While he is a playful pup full of energy and affection, he is also extremely fearful of the world.  This fear can manifest into making him protective and reactive.  As his anxiety traits present a challenge, a quiet, experienced and patient home is required to address his needs.  He should also be in a home without children or other pets.  Among his many positive qualities, he is quiet, house trained, crate trained, and he will sit nicely and lift his paw for a treat.  He is extremely shy when meeting new people but once BamBam feels comfortable, he will be your loyal companion forever!    **BECAUSE OF OUR REQUIREMENT FOR A HOME VISIT, WE ARE ONLY ABLE TO ADOPT TO HOMES IN THE NORTHERN VA / MARYLAND / DC METRO AREA** We have adoption events EVERY SATURDAY from 12-3 p.m. Please note that not all dogs can attend every event, so if you are interested in meeting a particular dog, please complete a no-obligation application on our website at http://www.muttloverescue.org/application.html OR write to adopt@muttloverescue.org.
