Story
Meet Ember! This heartthrob has a goofy smile, the manners of a gentleman, and a heart of gold. This fragile soul spent WEEKS in a crowded shelter after being found wandering alone as a stray. The second he stepped through our door, he completely lit up. Within hours, he was following his foster like a tiny flickering shadow ~ smiling, tail wagging, tongue peeking out when he woke from naps. His foster mom says he's so well-behaved and so happy to finally be included in a family. Ember's ideal home has people who are around most of the time, want to take him on plenty of walks and fun adventures, and love to cuddle. He wants to spend most of his day on the couch with his humans, supervising any kitchen activities, and snacking on all the treats. When Ember wakes up from naps, his little tongue sticks out, like it's been searching for snacks in his sleep. As if that weren't cute enough, one ear tends to flip back in his sleep so he wakes up with lopsided ears to match his lopsided grin. Ember loves going for leash walks (in nice weather only - he's not big on snow and we don't blame him one bit!) and is equally happy to ride along in the car. He is housetrained and generally sleeps through the night. While his vision and hearing aren't perfect, he still bounds up and down stairs and can even jump up onto the couch. He doesn't need a ton of exercise, but he absoutely needs a ton of snuggles! After everything he’s been through, Ember still believes people will choose him. He's so ready to finally have someone to give all of his love to - could it be you? Ember is approximately 12 years old and 16 lbs. Fostered in Germantown, MD Please apply at MirisHaven.org

Story
Meet Joe! Joe's story is the classic tale of a puppy bought from a store or a breeder who has found himself separated from the family he once knew. He was surrendered to a shelter in southwest Virginia after life had clearly taken its toll. When we arrived to rescue him, we found a pup with the saddest, most expressive eyes ~ the kind that look straight through you and into your soul. And when we realized those eyes were mostly blind… it just about broke our hearts. But here's the thing - Joe's transformation in our care has been nothing short of miraculous. It’s hard to believe he’s the same quiet, glum little man who arrived with so many skin, eye, and ear issues weighing him down. Once we began ttreating those, his whole spirit came rushing back in. Now he’s an easygoing, occasionally goofy gentleman who still naps like it’s his full-time occupation, but also keeps one drowsy eye on you at all times. If you move, he moves ~ bunny-hopping lightly behind you with that funny little bounce he does, as if he’s made of marshmallow instead of matter. Joe has T cell carcinoma but feels great day to day on a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medication that may help slow its progression. Based on his diagnosis, we believe his prognosis may allow him approximately 6 to 18 months - and we want them to be the best months of his life. All he needs is a family willing to open their heart and home to him. In return, our rescue will cover the cost of his medication and presciption urinary diet for the rest of his life Since being with us, Joe has discovered the joy of toys (selecting them one by one for private playtime), the deep and ancient comfort of being wrapped like a snug little burrito and held, and the absolute delight of going outside, where he becomes inexplicably energized (he'd love a fenced-in yard). Joe is obsessed with doing puzzles to find treats and has also shown an interest in interior design, taking the initiative to relocate his toy basket closer to his bed for better supervision of his subjects. A true renaissance man. If your ideal Saturday night involves cozy blankets, a glass of something tasty, and Emily in Paris playing in the background…Joe is your soulmate. Joe is a professional cuddler who believes personal space is a myth. He loves curling up on your chest or lap and will happily snooze there while you binge-watch, scroll, or dramatically react to plot twists. Small guy, big cuddle energy. Joe sleeps through the night, takes his meds and medicated baths without a fuss, and is ~ despite everything he’s been through ~ a tender, gentle soul who just wants a person of his very own to cherish him for whatever time he has ahead. Could you be the person who finally gives him his happily ever after? Joe is 12 years old and approximately 17 lbs. Fostered in Reston, VA Please apply at MirisHaven.org
