Story
Shadow was a rescue that my husbands former boss adopted, after a while his boss gave shadow to us as we were experienced pet owners. As we had shadow we have moved several times and have had a baby. When we had our baby we noticed shadow was becoming more aggressive and jealous. We tried to work with him, showing we loved them equally, and tried to train him again but he become more stubborn and jealous, leading to him not listening anymore with house rules. After some careful thoughts and tears we decided it would be better to re-home him, as we had gotten tired of his aggressiveness and cleaning up after him. We believe he would be better suited for a home with no children, or a home with older kids and a family that wants to be smothered in his love. Shadow always loves a good backyard and squirrels, along with walks and loves of cuddles.

Story
Foster Homes Needed! Do you have time and room in your life for a foster dog? http://www.muttloverescue.org/foster.html *****************   Jock was originally adopted from a rescue located in Alabama.  When he proved to be too active for the adopter's two senior dogs, they asked if Mutt Love would find him a loving home and of course we said yes.  Jock is about two years old and weighs about 30 pounds.  He is very friendly and sweet, likes other dogs, cats are unknown.  Jock is deaf so someone with experience with deaf dogs would be a plus.  **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.
