Story
She has been a part of my family since she was 10 weeks old, and making this decision has been incredibly difficult. She is now 6 years old and has grown up in a loving home. She is a loyal, gentle, and affectionate dog with a very good temperament and is not aggressive at all. She is fully house trained, well-mannered, and enjoys being around her people. She does great with children and gets along well with other pets. She enjoys being active and playing, but also loves relaxing and spending quiet time with her family. She forms strong bonds and truly thrives in a home where she feels safe, loved, and included as part of the family. I am looking for a responsible, loving home that can give her the time, care, and stability she deserves. My biggest hope is to find her a permanent home where she will continue to be treated with patience, kindness, and love.

Rocky is a 1-year-old bully mix with a perpetual smile and 58 pounds of pure sweetness. Short, stout, and incredibly handsome, he’s eager to find his place in your pack. Curious, people-loving, and always ready for fun, Rocky makes an ideal adventure buddy—whether exploring, training, or curling up for movie night. He’s smart, eager to learn, and thrives with structure and routine. In foster care, Rocky has become a polite leash walker, a good listener, and a pup learning to relax and entertain himself. Regular exercise has helped him blossom into a fit, confident little guy with a big personality. Rocky is social, affectionate, and happiest when included. He’d enjoy a friendly female dog companion and a family committed to continuing his training and helping him keep growing. This gorgeous boy aims to please, loves deeply, and is ready to become someone’s dog of a lifetime. Rocky is neutered and up-to-date on vaccines.

Story
Meet MERCI! Sweet Merci is about 4 years old, 39 pounds, female, white and brown terrier mix. This sweetie is such a happy gal; sauntering over with butt wiggles to greet everyone she meets with face nuzzles. What makes her extremely happy personality even more redeeming is that it is clear Merci has not always been properly cared for. Merci settles down for a nice nap or just to hang out with her people. She is learning to enjoy the creature comforts in her foster home. It took a few days to figure out the soft comfy dog beds were for her and she did not have to sleep on the hard floor! She has done well with other dogs. Merci has great house manners. Poor Merci has not always been properly taken care of; she arrived at the shelter with a cherry eye, some patchy fur, and heartworm. Because she was so so sweet, the shelter made an urgent plea to save her....PetConnect Rescue was able to come to her rescue, bring her to the DC area to a great foster, and will give her the necessary medical care she needs. Her eye already has been surgically fixed, the fur/skin will resolve with good food and care, and she will be treated for heartworm. So now Merci has left her horrible past behind and is ready to find her new, and this time, forever home. She has so much love and happiness to give to her new family for many years! Merci would love to curl up in your lap to hang out on a winter evening; she loves to cuddle and get pets! Merci is up-to-date on vaccines, preventatives. She is eager to find her person(s) to love! ***Please note that our first step is to fill out an application (it does not commit you in anyway but allows us to discuss with you if you and the dog are a good fit). In addition, an important step in approving adoption applicants is to complete a vet check to ensure that your current and previous pet(s) are kept up to date on vaccines (including rabies ), spayed or neutered, maintained on appropriate monthly preventatives and examined annually by your vet.*** The adoption fee for this dog is $425 which includes routine vetting and spay/neuter. PetConnect Rescue cannot guarantee the exact breed of any animal in our care. The breed listed is based on any background we may have been provided, and the general appearance of the animal at the time they enter our system.

Story
Meet my girl — a 5-year-old Pit Bull/Staffordshire Terrier with the sweetest heart! I adopted her 6 months ago from a friend, and she’s been nothing but loving and well-mannered ever since. I’m looking for a home that welcomes responsible pet owners and appreciates a calm, affectionate dog. She’s gentle, loyal, goofy, cuddly, and super friendly with people. She loves her walks, naps like a pro, and thinks belly rubs are a full-time job. She’s house-trained, easygoing, and has a very soft, relaxed personality — truly the definition of a good girl. If you’re looking for a sweet, well-behaved companion who brings nothing but love and comfort, she’s the perfect match.

Story
 Meet Autumn! Gigis story is one of quiet resilience and unwavering spirit. This beautiful gray-coated girl was found thin, tired, and doing her best to survive. She was also a new mother, struggling to care for her two tiny puppies while her own body was depleted. Despite her best efforts, one of the puppies did not make it, but Gigi poured every ounce of love into her surviving pup, who is now thriving thanks to her dedication and care. In rescue, Gigi has begun to heal. With steady meals, gentle hands, and a safe place to rest, her tail wags a little more each day. She adores being near her people, whether curled up for snuggles, padding along for a leisurely walk, or simply laying close by, happy to be part of the moment. Gigi is resilient and hopeful, gentle and affectionate, and deeply devoted once she feels safe. She has already proven her strength and her nurturing heart, and now it is her turn to be cared for. Gigi has given her whole heart to surviving and mothering, and now she is ready to thrive. She is looking for a forever family who will give her the love, security, and kindness she has always deserved. Are you ready to fall for Gigi? Apply today and give her the home she has been waiting for.

Meet Ordelia (A534493)!Ordelia is a gentle, thoughtful pup who is still learning how to feel confident in new situations. She can be a little nervous at first, but she warms up quickly—especially if you have a few tasty treats to share. She takes them gently and appreciates kind words and soft pets.On walks, Ordelia does beautifully—she’s easy to leash, curious about her surroundings, and enjoys quietly observing the world around her. While she’s still figuring out dog-to-dog interactions, she’s tolerant and would likely do best with calm, respectful canine friends or as the only dog where she can blossom at her own pace.This sweet girl is looking for a patient and loving adopter who will give her the time and reassurance she needs to truly shine. With trust and kindness, Ordelia is sure to become a devoted companion.
