Story
Meet Tater, our resident baby Hippo... This handsome Bully boy was found by a Good Samaritan we’ve worked with multiple times over the years to find homes for several abandoned pups.  She saw Tater running as a stray and was able to quickly gain his trust and get him to safety.  She brought Tater into her home and kept him as part of her pack until we had a foster home ready to take him.  We always try to support Good Samaritans who go above and beyond what most folks would do, and were happy to help this handsome boy find his way home. Tater has been in his SC foster home for about 2 months now learning basic house manners and getting his required vetting done before he comes north to find his forever home. He's living with a foster mom and dad, and two larger GSDs, Dozer and Knox. He had an easy integration into his new pack and gets along will with both dogs. Things Tater loves… Being the center of attention and getting all the pets Playing and snuggling with his BFF, Knox Naps and cuddling on the couch  Sunbathing Toys…especially chewing on bones Tater is a goofy boy full of personality. He enjoys romping and playing with his dog buddies but is very connected to his humans too. There’s nothing Tater enjoys more than cuddling on the couch with his foster mom for his afternoon nap.  He’s an adolescent who likes to be the center of attention, and his foster mom has been working to teach him patience and to learn to share affection as part of a pack. Tater has a moderate energy level - he will play and run outside, but settles down inside and enjoys a good couch nap. He is crate trained, housetrained, shares treats well, and LOVES every person and dog he meets. He really enjoys social outings and is an excellent car rider. He just sits in the back seat very chill and watches out the window or lays down and takes a nap. This handsome boy always attracts attention… When you take him anywhere people attract to him and want to meet him, and he just LOVES their attention. We think Tater will do best in an active home and would do well as an only dog, or with another young pup playmate. He will make a great family dog but is best suited in a home with older kids. He’s young and gets excited and doesn't realize how big he is. He’s new to leash walks and is a strong boy who pulls, so he needs time and practice on walks and a capable handler. This gorgeous boy will be coming to town mid June.  Apply today to welcome him home. Preference will be given to adopters with large dog/Bully breed experience.    BREED ESTIMATE:  Bully/Mastiff Mix GENDER: Male APPROXIMATE WEIGHT:  63 lbs  APPROXIMATE AGE: ~ 1-1.5 years old COAT TYPE:  Short  ADOPTION FEE: $400 OTHER INFO: utd on shots/neutered/microchipped LOCATION:  Rock Hill, SC   FOR MORE INFO OR TO ADOPT: Please go to https://adopt.worthydog.org and complete the application. You can also help save dogs like this one by becoming a foster, providing a rescue dog with a temporary home and giving them the love and care they need until they are permanently adopted. Every person who fosters is directly responsible for saving the life of a dog, because we can only save as many dogs as we have foster families available to welcome them into their homes. If you think you might be interested in becoming a foster and want to learn more, please go to https://foster.worthydog.org and fill out an application. Worthy Dog Rescue is an all-volunteer, foster-based rescue that primarily adopts to families in the DC Metro area. May 31, 2023, 9:47 am

Story
Ivelyse was surrendered to the county kill shelter for unknown reasons. Our Humane society pulled her from that shelter and relocated her to ours for vetting and potential adoption. She is a sweet, playful girl. Your typical playful Pibble that loves to play, do zoomies, then straight to couch potato! Ivelyse has tested well with cats and dogs. She absolutely loves people as well. Ivelyse is 4 years old and is approximately 60 lbs, heartworm tested negative, spayed, microchipped, and up to date on all vaccinations. She is being fostered in Tennessee at this time but no worries because we use the most animal-friendly transport on the road. Rescue Riders Pet Transport.

Story
Mando was acquired by his owners to be a “guard dog” at 6 weeks. They put him on a chain in the front yard and left him there. A neighbor asked the owner if they could have him, and the owner gave him away. The neighbor brought him to our shelter for us to vet him and find him a home. Mando is such a sweet, loving pup. He has tested well with everyone including small children and dogs. He has not been tested with cats at this time. Mando is up to date on vaccinations, heartworm negative, neutered and microchipped. He is being fostered in Tennessee but no worries because we use the most animal-friendly transport on the road. Rescue Riders Pet Transport.

Story
This sweet girl was taken in "temporarily" by a senior lady when her daughter moved. The daughter is not taking her back and although Shoogie is good with her other dog and granddaughter, she has entirely too much energy for this lady. We have offered to help her find a great home for this fun loving girl. Shoogie is spayed, UTD on all required vaccines, is HW negative and microchipped. Shoogie is 2 1/5 years old, is housetrained and weighs about 45 lbs. She needs a home with younger, active people that can give her a happy, loving forever home. If you would like to be Shoogie's forever hero, please contact omlc7@hotmail.com and we will send our info and app. PLEASE BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR SPAM/JUNK FOLDER FOR RESPONSES TO YOUR INQUIREY.

Story
Meet Kona! She is a red pit bull/terrier mix, around 2 and a half years old. Kona is energetic, and can get a little rowdy! She is very much a puppy, and is still working on her manners. Kona needs a family that can give her all the wonderful things a dog deserves, and teach her how to play! She would do best in a home with older kids, 10 years and older, and no cats. She should be properly introduced with other dogs. Kona doesn’t like loud noises, noisy vehicles, and if given the chance, would chase cars. So she would need a safe, fenced yard to roam in or be kept on a leash when walking. Kona, like any dog adopted from a shelter, would need time and patience to adjust to a new home and surroundings. Kona is up to date on vaccinations, negative, spayed and microchipped. Just look at that sweet face and smile! Kona is being fostered in the state of Tennessee right now but no worries because we use the most animal-friendly transport on the road. Rescue Riders Pet Transport.
