Emma

American Pit Bull Terrier Retriever (Unknown Type)

Female, Young
Annapolis, MD
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Not good with kids, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Emma is a sweetheart, affectionate to every person she meets. She is smart but strong-willed. Emma needs someone who is physically fit, energetic , strong, and a pack leader. She should not be around young children, as she has exhibited a strong prey drive and is overly exuberant. She is " bitey" sometimes. I always have a bitter tasting spray with me because I can't predict when she will be nippy or tug on my clothes. It sometimes happens at transition times, such as coming inside after being tethered. She hasn't yet learned to respect household objects. Emma has many chew toys, but she still is tethered to protect my furniture, etc. Emma is house- broken and crate-trained. She is not possessive of her food. She walks better with a harness and is still learning not to pull. Emma is about 1 and 1/2 years old and weighs 42 pounds. She was a stray who was rescued from a shelter. She will make the right person a wonderful companion.

Story
Meet Lucy, a truly special pup looking for her forever home! 🐾 We originally fostered this sweet girl through Anne Arundel County Animal Control. While we never planned to adopt, a clerical mix-up ended with Lucy being officially signed over to us. Although we adore her, we want to help her find the home that fits her needs perfectly. Lucy is a year old and has been with us for the last eight months. She has been wonderful with our two small children and has an affectionate demeanor. She’s also an athletic, energetic dog who loves to play, explore, and be part of family activities. She would thrive in a home where she can get regular exercise, playtime, and daily walks. Lucy is smart, eager to learn, and would make an amazing companion for an active individual or family. If you’re looking for a loving, lively pup to add joy and adventure to your life, Lucy might be the perfect match. 💛🐶

Story
After being neglected as a puppy, placed in an inappropriate home environment, and then a year in witness pawtection with his trainer, its time for Ortlund to find a new family. If you are looking for a partner through life’s struggles and healing this pup might be a good fit for you. He has had a significant amount of trauma in his life that he is healing from. He has made strides in his healing process and is ready to start looking for his forever home. He will need someone who is ready and willing to navigate the remainder of his healing with him and is willing for him to make a slow transition into your home working side by side with his trainer. While continuing to heal he has also learned some wonderful things. He knows basic obedience, he also knows how to maintain specific boundaries given in different environments, he excels at leash walking even in a distracted environment. He loves his trips to Home-depot, Petsmart, and DC. He will need consistent exposure to different environments, does great with other dogs and cats if he is slowly introduced to them, and loves to go trail running. He is named after Dane Ortlund who wrote gentle and lowly. He is a gentle dog who has suffered greatly and needs a loving, patient, and compassionate home. If interested in meeting Ortlund, please head to our website. https://www.savinggraceanimalrescuemd.com/
