Please contact Paul Slebzak (pauls@luckydoganimalrescue.org) for more information about this pet.sweet girl ISO fresh start and love! HARPER NEEDS A FOREVER HOME!!!!    Name:   Harper          Best Guess for Breed:   Rottweiler mix   Best Guess for Age:   7 years as of April 2026         SEX:    Female   Approximate Weight:   55 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:   DC area foster home   Harper is Looking For:    Harper is ready to start her next chapter. With her soulful eyes and gentle presence, she has a quiet charm that draws you in and makes you want to learn more about her.  Harper is at that wonderful stage in life where she’s past the puppy chaos but still has plenty of love and companionship to give. Whether it’s joining you for a walk, lounging nearby, or simply being your steady sidekick, Harper is ready to find a place to call her own. What My Foster Says About Me:    Harper is a fun-loving, incredibly sweet girl who thrives on affection—she’s happiest curled up next to you soaking up cuddles and ear scratches. Social and eager to be part of the family, she loves meeting new people and gets along wonderfully with other dogs. Though she’s on the smaller side for a Rottie, she has the confident, easygoing spirit typical of her Rottweiler roots. She’s a low-maintenance companion with great manners. Harper rarely barks, walks beautifully on a leash, and settles easily in her crate for both overnight and daytime routines. She enjoys playtime with squeaky toys and may show a little playful stubbornness, but she’s responsive and builds trust quickly. Harper would do well as either a solo dog or with canine companions—she’s friendly, shares space and resources, and even enjoys grooming her dog friends. She’s also shown gentle curiosity toward other animals. She’s currently working on gaining weight after arriving underweight and is happily motivated by food and treats. While she may have a bit of stiffness in her rear legs, she gets around well and has handled stairs and walks (up to 2 miles!) with ease  A true couch companion at heart, Harper would love a home where she can relax by your side and be included in daily life. She’s still polishing her potty routine but is making steady progress with consistency. If you’re looking for a loyal, affectionate dog with a gentle nature and a playful streak, Harper might just be your perfect match. 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.

Story
We got Buster Bear from a humane society in North Carolina after a hurricane caused him to be on the streets. He was about 3 months old at the time and has been with us for 7 years. He is an extremely loyal dog with a relaxed demeanor and a kind/ friendly nature. We are looking to rehome him after having a baby and do not have space in our home anymore, nor the time to give him the attention he deserves. (He is good with kids though!)We think he would do best in a home where he can be indoors with the family a majority of the time as one of his quirks is that he seems to hate bugs landing on him. He is very trainable, but can be headstrong (probably the rottweiler in him) so an experienced owner would be great.He is food motivated, but not food aggressive.He loves walks, but generally requires a nose leader to keep him from pulling. He does NOT jump on furniture, sleep in human beds, or steal food off counters. He is crate trained and house broken.He does need a once daily joint chew.

Tea is a giant cuddly teddy bear! She loves to play with our resident dog, but is also happy to sprawl flat on the ground or snuggle up next to you on the couch. She is so sweet, and she will make you feel very safe. We have a busy household and a cat and she has handled everyone and everything with no issues; she loves everyone and wants them to love her. She is curious about the cat, and they are safely coexisting. She is loving my fenced-in yard, but will need some training to walk on a leash. She is doing very well with potty training and sleeps through the night in her crate. Come meet beautiful mama Tea and prepare to have your heart stolen!

Story
Hi, I'm Tony! I'm a young Rottweiler mix, and I'm a sweet, smart, and endlessly curious boy who is still growing up and figuring out the world. I love being outside, exploring a little more of my yard every day, and I'm a very serious stick collector. Every trip out I seem to come back with a bigger one than before, and my foster family is pretty sure a whole log is in my future. A few things to know about me: I'm brave and I learn fast. I already know "sit," I'm working on "go potty," and treats make me a very willing student. I've got personality. I do the Rottie rumbles, the Rottie punch, plenty of drool, and a full sploot with my back legs stretched out behind me. I play great with others. I live with my brother and some older, wiser dogs who are teaching me how to play fair and read the room, so I'd love a home with another friendly dog. I love the simple things. Pup cups, my water fountain, air conditioning after a good adventure, and eating like a gentleman, a little at a time. Here's the important part. Right now I'm a big, kind baby, but babies like me grow into strong, powerful adults. Rottweilers are one of the strongest breeds around, with one of the strongest bites of any dog, and even mixed I carry that with me. That's a responsibility, and it's why I need an owner with Rottweiler or working breed experience who can give me consistent, positive training. Raised right, I'll be a wonderful, loyal, well mannered companion, and that's good for me and for everyone I meet. What I'm looking for in a home: Someone experienced with Rottweilers or similar working breeds Commitment to consistent, positive training Daily exercise and games to keep my brain busy A yard and room to run (an apartment isn't really my style) Bonus points for another friendly dog to grow up with If that sounds like you, I'd love to meet you. Let's grow up together. Love, Tony Adoption Day: August 1st at PetSmart Tysons Corner from 10:00–11:00 AM, an approved adopter must be present to adopt.   Some pups may stick around until 11:00 AM for the public event—check our Facebook page closer to the date to see if this pup will be attending the extra fun! ##2777159##

Story
If you are interested in adopting Kingston, please contact dogs@lostdogrescue.org. All hail Kingston, ruler of the backyard zoomies, champion of fetch, and professional lean-in-for-a-belly-rub expert. This affectionate, sweet boy has perfected the art of “play hard, nap harder.” One minute he’s trotting happily beside you on a walk, the next he’s sprawled dramatically by your desk like he just finished a very important business meeting. Kingston’s dream life? A fenced yard, a basket overflowing with toys, and a favorite human to shadow from room to room like a very devoted (and slightly silly) personal assistant. He’s the kind of dog who will quietly keep you company while you work, supervise your cooking from the kitchen floor, and politely request his daily quota of bear hugs and belly rubs. He truly just wants to be with his favorite human, whether that’s hanging out inside or heading outdoors for walks, sniffing adventures, fetch, and games. Even better? This good boy is currently thriving in a foster home where he’s shown just how naturally he fits into family life. He is house-trained and crate-trained, sleeps soundly through the night, and settles beautifully into a routine like he’s been part of the family forever. Equal parts goofy sidekick and loyal best friend, Kingston is ready to trade foster life for couch naps, sunny walks, squirrel patrol duty, and forever-family status. If your house could use a little more laughter, love, and paw-print energy, Kingston is ready to move in and claim his throne.
