Story
River is a sweet, deeply loyal, and loving dog who bonds closely with her people and has so much affection to give. She thrives in a calm home and would do best in a household without young children, simply because she can be a bit reactive in high-energy environments. With adults and people she trusts, she is gentle, cuddly, and incredibly devoted. RIver adores cats, enjoys long walks, and would make a wonderful companion for someone looking for a loyal, affectionate dog who loves routine and connection. She’s an amazing girl who deserves the right home where she can feel safe, relaxed, and loved.

Story
Hi, I'm Boulder, a robust and loving brown Pit bull. I'm a big boy, weighing about 90 pounds over the winter but I thin out when I am more active over the summers. Don't let my size fool you—I'm just a gentle giant. I'm neutered and all my shots are up to date, so I'm as healthy as can be. I'm a pro when it comes to house manners and walking on a leash, and I adore people of all ages. Although, because of my size and playfulness, I would do best with teenagers and not younger kids so I don’t tumble anyone during play. I'm the kind of guy who is content to be your shadow, lounging by your side, but I also love to stretch my legs with long walks and a good roll in the grass. My eyes will tell you stories, and my main goal is to make you happy. I enjoy family time, but I'm also independent enough to be fine on my own. If you're looking for a loyal companion for walks, picnics, or just some cozy snuggles, look no further. I'm being fostered in Sanford, NC, but can travel to other locations for the right home. Please note, there is a transfer fee. I promise to be the teddy bear you've always wanted!

Story
Current Location: Gettysburg, PA Hello! My name is Olive! Olive is a calm, laid back sweetheart who has truly mastered the art of relaxation. She is gentle, quiet, and content to enjoy the simple things. A soft dog bed, a warm spot in front of the wood stove, and a peaceful home are her idea of perfection. She walks beautifully on a leash and prefers short, easy outings followed by long stretches of lounging. Olive is happy spending time in her kennel or curled up in her bed, watching the world go by. She does not need much exercise and would thrive in a quiet, low key household. Olive has been fostered with kids and other dogs and has been a lovely, steady companion to all. She is sweet with children, polite with dogs, and relaxed when meeting new people. At ten years old, this Shar Pei girl brings all the charm of her blonde folds and wrinkles, along with a wonderfully expressive face full of character. Olive is ready for a calm life of comfort and companionship. She would be a perfect match for someone looking for a peaceful, loving presence to share their home and their heart. "This dog tested positive for heartworm disease before arriving to the rescue. Heartworm disease is transmitted to a dog through a bite from an infected mosquito producing a positive test in six months. OPH will treat the dog and provide two weeks of recovery time prior to adoption. Potential adopters will receive detailed information on the disease and their role in completing the recovery process from OPH’s heartworm coordinator. With monthly preventatives, the disease is completely preventable.

Story
Libra is a 6-year-old Shar Pei mix with a calm, friendly nature and a tail that never seems to stop wagging -- earning her the nickname “Wiggles.” She recently weaned her two puppies and is now ready to focus on being someone’s beloved companion. It’s clear Libra had a difficult start in life; missing fur around her neck suggests she may have once been chained. Despite that, she remains incredibly happy, social, and resilient, greeting new people with an easygoing confidence and genuine affection. If you're looking for the perfect couch companion, work buddy and sidekick, she's your girl! Everyone that meets her ABSOLUTELY adores her! Libra does wonderfully in her foster home, where she lives peacefully with four cats and two dogs. She would enjoy having a laid-back canine companion who isn’t overly pushy, though she does like to play and enjoys relaxed walks around the neighborhood. A fenced backyard would be a dream for her—somewhere she can explore, lounge, and soak up the sun. She is potty trained, leash trained, and comfortable in a crate when needed and the best car companion. Libra is Heartworm posititve and currently undergoing treatment, which is fully covered by WTAR. She will need daily medication and a period of rest, but she’s an easy patient who takes her pills with peanut butter and is content to take things slow. Libra is simply a kind, adaptable dog who fits easily into a home and brings steady companionship wherever she goes. She’s ready for a second chance and a family to call her own. Adoption Day: January 24th at PetSmart Tysons Corner from 10:00–11:00 AM, an approved adopter must be present to adopt. Pets may be adopted prior to this date with an approved adopter. 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! ##2581332##
