Story
Meet Sophia…. Sophia is an adorable puppy, thought to be a Whippet – Black Lab Mix; she’s petite with a dainty bone structure vs the more solid bone structure of a Lab!! She’s very smart, a quick learner, very alert and quite energetic!! At about 4 months, Sophia weighs 16 lbs. It is most important to note that we cannot be 100% sure of her adult weight, but our best guess is about 35-40 lbs. This cute pup joined BAARK from an overcrowded shelter in Kentucky earlier this year. She is thought to have been born around November 24 2022. When joining our rescue program, Sophia appeared happy, playful, and must have sensed that she was “free!” and safe!! Sophia is very sociable, outgoing, playful, and is great with dogs, but can be annoying to older, more well mannered dogs; she would be far too energetic for a senior (dog or human!) An ideal family for Sophia is one able to assimilate the energy of a puppy into their lifestyle and is willing to commit the time to working with and training Sophia to be her best self! A fenced yard is ideal as is another younger or middle-aged pup in the family. Perhaps you’d consider adopting Sara along with Sophia…the girls are sisters!! Sophia is crate-trained and is working on good house manners (housebreaking). She is up to date on all age-appropriate vaccinations, is on heartworm preventative and is microchipped. Her spay is included in her adoption fee. For information about adding this adorable girl to your family please contact BAARKDogRescue@gmail.com or 847-852-0895.

Meet Wacky Wednesday – Your Future Ray of Sunshine! ☀️🐾 Say hello to Wacky Wednesday, an 8-month-old pint-sized pittie mix weighing just 18lbs and bursting with love, personality, and charm! This sweet, spunky little girl is everything you could want in a puppy — affectionate, playful, and perfectly social. She gets along beautifully with dogs, kids, and humans of all kinds. In short, she's a total gem. Wacky Wednesday came to us with her four siblings after they were found in a heartbreaking state — neglected, starved, and abandoned in a cage outside someone’s workplace. But don’t let her past fool you — Wacky Wednesday has the biggest heart and a joyful spirit that refuses to be dimmed. She’s a top pick for our Dog Day Out program, where families consistently fall in love with her easygoing nature and sweet personality. Two of her siblings have already found their forever homes, and now it’s Wacky Wednesday’s turn to find a family who will give her the love she’s always deserved. If you’re looking for a small dog with a huge heart, a joyful attitude, and a cuddle-ready personality that will brighten your every day — Wacky Wednesday is your girl. From her foster: "Meet Wacky Wednesday – your perfect pint-sized cuddle companion! This sweet girl is the total package: quiet (she doesn’t bark!), loving, and incredibly well-mannered. She made herself at home right away and has been winning hearts ever since. Wacky Wednesday loves everyone she meets and gets along wonderfully with other dogs. She's playful without being overwhelming and adores curling up in your lap or staying close by your side. A true “master cuddler,” she's happiest when snuggled up with her people. She has excellent leash manners and doesn’t pull, making walks a breeze. She's also crate-trained, sleeping peacefully in her crate at night. And if you're heading out for a drive, she’s the perfect car ride companion. If you're looking for a loyal, loving, and low-maintenance lap dog, Wacky Wednesday is your girl!" 🌈 Ready to meet your perfect match? Apply today and let Wacky Wednesday bring a little extra happy to your home!

Story
"What did the cricket say to the squirrel??" How would we know?? Cricket's don't TALK!! Ok, now that we have broken the ice, let me tell you all about me :) I am a strong survivor. I came from the most DISMAL situation you can imagine.... born to an unwanted mother, sickly and sad, I was dumped with her as well as one of our sisters dead bodies, like we had no meaning in this world... BUT, LOVE WON OUT!!! I was seen by a kind woman who reached out to another kind woman who reached out to a rescuer in San Antonio- 5 hours away!!! AND we were SAVED! So how is that for a rags to riches story?? It is MY story. I am a happy girl now, I have come SO FAR from the scared, skinny, starving, mangy pup I was, but I haven't reached the finish line YET!! That's where you come in... I am ready for my forever family. We are going to be a little picky, if you don't mind. I prefer a home, with heat and ac, with food and with LOVE. Older kids would be great, I can still be a little nervous with new people (who can blame me?) and I would love another calm, confident dog to help me with my energy. So, if that sounds like your home, APPLY TO ADOPT ME!!! You will not only finish my story with a huge happy ending chapter, you will be encouraging all of the kind women who took the time and energy and love that was needed to get me safe and to wonderful families!!! ADOPT.... DON'T SHOP!!! OUR LIVES DEPEND ON IT!!! Local adoption fee is $250 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $500 (includes transport to your area, $50 temporary fuel fee will be included)
