Story
Luca is a wonderful 7 year old mixed breed (mainly American Bulldog) who is great with people and loves to play fetch. He also loves water and will want to swim if you go to the beach. He can be left unattended in the house for several hours at a time, and does not chew on items that are not his toys. He loves bones and dog toys and long walks. He is a loyal guardian of the house. Luca is not good with other dogs or small animals. He can go to the dog park and enjoys sniffing other dogs, but he can easily misread playful behavior and so has to be watched closely in such environments. But he can be easily distracted by his favorite ball and we use this to get his attention when he sees other dogs on walks or in yards as we walk past. We are sad to part with our pet. He would thrive in a busy household with a large back yard. He travels well in an automobile but we travel by air. We would consider pet sharing if the adoptive family is local to WA DC or Alexandria VA.

She would like to take naps and watch TV with you. When it's time to exercise, playing ball is the activity of choice in a fenced yard, the higher the better. Click

Story
To learn more about Nugget, please get in touch with his foster at xgenic@gmail.com Hello, I'm Nugget! Why Nugget? Probably because I was a complete Chicken Nugget! When I was rescued, I feared everything: cardboard boxes, plastic bags, umbrellas, anything shiny, and even stationary rocks in the backyard. But my curiosity never let my fear get the best of me, and now I think I'm pretty brave, so I'm trying to be your Golden Nugget. I love to play! I'll fetch and chase with all my toys, but I'm very responsible in the house and won't touch anything I shouldn't. I sometimes growl like a dragon when I get really playful, and it scares people, but I'm very gentle. I know all my basic obedience commands, walk nicely on the leash, and eat all my approved doggie vegetables. I've had many doggie roommates and do well with non-dominant dogs once I get over my initial excitement of meeting them. I'm still a bit nervous around human strangers and do best with someone who understands "no talk, no touch, no eye contact" when approaching me. But if you play hard to get and carry a piece of cheese in your hand, I'll be your best friend.

Story
Kash just turned 6 on May 20, 2023 and has lots of energy. He is in need of a family with time to walk him daily and that is also good with providing attention to him, he loves to be up under ppl. He also knows when it’s time to relax and chill, just know he’ll be sitting/laying at your feet 😊 He is great with children and will be on alert to protect the home. We are a family who now have adult children that are no longer available to give Kash the care that he deserves. School and work schedules have gotten in the way. As a family we have decided to look for a new home/family that has the love and time for him

Story
Soggy doggie kisses- check! Adorable wiggly butt- check! Best dog in the world- check! Yes, that's me. My name is Ares and whoever adopts me with be the luckiest person ever! I'm a big lovable lug of a guy who adores being with people. Even though I'm a husky 75 pounds, I will do my best to be your lap dog. While here, I've had the opportunity to meet other dogs and I do enjoy gentle playdates. See, I told you I'm an awesome pup. I can be a bit jumpy and excited when meeting new people so be sure to hold my leash tight! I do hope you are planning to meet me soon. I can't wait to be your best friend.

Story
I am currently in foster and I am available for adoption. If you are interested in adopting me you can email the foster at fosterpgpets@co.pg.md.usWindy came into our care on Christmas Eve in very poor condition. Since then she has gotten healthy, gained weight, and slowly started to come out of her shell and we are so excited to see those glimpses of her true personality. Windy is very nervous and unsure in her kennel. When you walk past, she will dart to the other side to avoid you. Once out of her kennel, she opens up. She loves walking outside and exploring at a leisurely pace. She walks very well on a leash and really seeks out her handler for guidance and reassurance. The closer she is to you, the better! She loves receiving soft gentle pets. Windy is dog friendly and turns into a different dog when she is around another friendly pup that matches her energy level. She got to run around with Blossom outside yesterday and loved every minute of it! Windy`s new family should be patient with her as she will need time to open up and feel comfortable. She would do best in a quiet home and wouldn`t mind living with a friendly confident dog. Windy`s decompression period will be important.

Story
Winston is a 5 year old, sweet, loveable, and silly pup. I adopted him in October 2020 and these last few years have been nothing short of amazing. I really had no idea just how much I would grow to love this dog as much as I do. Unfortunately my change in job has made it difficult to continue giving him the quality of life that he deserves and I feel that it'd be in his best interest to find a new loving home. I'm looking for someone who preferably works from home and has a yard.

Story
ADOPT ME ONLINE: https://ophrescue.org/dogs/12682Hello! My name is Bubby and I just arrived with my two siblings from West Virginia! I was born on 11 March, 2023.I am an outgoing boy, and I love to play with my siblings. My fur is longish and my one ear stands up, plus my nose is kind of long, so foster mom thinks there could be some shepherd in me. She also thinks my colors are stunning and my eyes are beautiful. I currently weigh about 13 pounds. I'm already sleeping through the night, and am a super sweet boy who is already learning to sit for pets. I love to rough-house with my brother, Nubby, and we can make some big messes. I also have an outstanding vertical leap. I LOVE people and have done well with everyone I've met, including my 7-year-old neighbor.You can learn more about me and my siblings on my foster mom's blog, www.AnotherGoodDog.org.I am just a baby and my adopters should be respectful of my small size and puppy needs, such as not being left alone for more than 4 hours at a time, and to teach me proper manners with play, potty, leash walking, and crating. In return, I promise to try really hard to make you proud and to give lots of puppy kisses!Please note that because this puppy is so young, it has only received 2 of the required 3 puppy distemper vaccinations. This is very IMPORTANT because it means that the immune system will not be fully functioning until about 16 weeks of age. Until then, the puppy MUST stay out of public places where it could be exposed to the germs of other dogs. These no-puppy zones include all pet stores, dog parks, and for apartment dwellers, areas used by other dogs. These requirements are strictly for the puppy’s medical safety and longevity.This puppy is micro-chipped and up to date on age-appropriate vaccines and monthly preventatives and is available to go home as early as 12 June 2023.
