Story
My pet was brought from the Fairfax county animal shelter. He is the most adorable puppy with the sweetest soul. I love him to death and the thought of losing him is killing me, but unfortunately due to some family emergency I need to move out of the country for at least a year, and I cannot take my baby with me. He loves to go one walks, hikes and snuggle. Playtime is always fun and he knows how to keep himself occupied with a kong. He is potty trained and will let you know when he needs to go outside. Although he is only 10 months he has the calmness of a much older dog.

Story
Meet Sky, a roughly 5-Year-Old Staffy/German Shepherd/Pitbull Mix Looking for a New Home! I adopted Sky from the HRA three years ago and have had the joy of watching her grow into a unique and loving companion. She’s a vibrant 5-year-old mix of Staffordshire Terrier, German Shepherd, and Pitbull. What You Need to Know About Sky: Energy & Cuddles: She’s a dog of contrasts—able to play as hard as she can cuddle, with little middle ground. Personality: Sky is a sweet but reactive dog who thrives with an experienced owner familiar with handling dogs with anxiety. She can be reactive and dog aggressive, so someone who understands her needs and can provide a structured environment would be ideal. Favorite Things: Her favorite toy in the world is her red ball, which acts like a pacifier to her and brings her great comfort and joy. What We're Looking for in Her New Home: An experienced dog owner who is familiar with reactive dogs. Someone patient, understanding, and willing to pro

Story
We have had Zuko for around 6 weeks now. We adopted him from the local shelter, and he has been an absolute delight. Zuko is incredibly affectionate and loves to cuddle. We have been diligently working on housebreaking and crate training with him, and he is making great progress. Zuko is a quick learner and aims to please, responding well to basic manners training. He thrives on physical exercise and mental stimulation, and gets along wonderfully with our large dog as well as small breeds. Although we adore Zuko, our demanding schedules prevent us from providing him with the time and attention he deserves to become a well-trained dog. Zuko is a small dog the vet doesn't think he will get much bigger.

Story
Rosie was dropped off into this fosters neighborhood and left to fend for herself after obviously having puppies. She went door to door asking to be let in — it was January and rainy and this indoor girl was beside herself. After 10 days begging for help, she found the right neighbor who gave me a call and I brought her into my foster home. She had terrible skin allergies and was oh so hungry! For months she stared at trucks and on walks sat next to trucks — likely hoping it was her people’s truck and surely they were coming back for her. That was Jan ‘23. Flash forward to now, she is a solid 85# and allergies controlled, fur is gorgeous, and she loooooooooves everyone she meets ESPECIALLY men!!! She gets a daily walk and has become a neighborhood celebrity knowing everybody! Lawnmowing guys, city service trucks, linemen, neighbors…. literally stop what they are doing to come give her some petting and a happy hello! A lonnnng roll in the grass is required before walks are complete. She happily wears her raincoat on rainy days and winter coat in the cold months. Rosie has perfect housemanners and asks for very little. She needs to be the only pet in the house though, preferring to be Queen of her kingdom. She requires monthly meds for allergies. Her mast cell tumor was removed with all margins clear, and her Lymes disease treated. She loves car rides and going into stores and meeting everyone she can. A home where she can be Queen is her dream and mine. A busy foster home that requires her to be kept separated is not the ideal place for this social butterfly.

Story
Bo has lived with other dogs most of his life. Kennel trained. House trained. Uses leash harness but does pull if excited and might run if able. Loves people and attention. Likes playing with kids just needs supervision he doesn't get too excited. Gets the zoomies and likes to play but likes his naps too. Gets along with other dogs but needs time to introduce them. We have watched other friends dogs for weeks at a time and depending on the dog he just takes time to warm up but overall friendly and enjoys playing with them. Has anxiety during the fourth of July or fire alarms or the wind. Will try to get out of kennel during that time we usually stay with him and he does well. Hes had regular shots and teeth cleanings. Recommend kenneling if out of the house as has gotten food off of countertops or into snack bags while away. My son has formed an aller and heartbreakingly won't be able to keep him any longer but he has a lot of love and would be a great companion, very loving.

These pups are in Arlington, Virginia too!

To learn more about our upcoming events and to see which event he will be attending, please visit our event page at https://www.lostdogrescue.org/events/ (*please note that the specific event pages are typically updated on Fridays with information on which dogs will be attending which events*) Hi! I'm King. I am loving, loyal, and - ok, you made me say it - very handsome. Oh, and did I mention that I am looking for a best friend to adopt me? I like leash walks, especially in calm and quiet spaces where we can spend some quality time together without the crowds. But, I may get distracted by all of the wonderful smells because I really do need to put my nose on everything to explore the wonders of the world. Not only am I curious, I am up for a challenge! I like to run across streams, jump on logs, and hike the trails. I have lots of energy so will be sure to help keep up with your exercise plan. I even like to get in a jog from time to time. And, not to brag, but I am pretty smart. But, for the sake of all those delicious treats, I will pretend that it takes me time to master new tricks and skills. One more thing to tell you. I like to talk when I play. I hope you will come to meet me so we can play together forever, just you and me!

To learn more about Queen, please get in touch with dogs@lostdogrescue.org Queen will be attending one of our adoption events coming up this weekend! To learn more about our upcoming events and to see which event they will be attending, please visit our event page at https://www.lostdogrescue.org/events/ (*please note that the specific event pages are typically updated on Fridays with information on which dogs will be attending which events*) Meet Queen, a spunky and charismatic pup with a ton of personality! One of Queen's defining characteristics is her friendliness and kindness. She loves engaging activities like games of tug and outdoor adventures but is still learning how to be careful with her mouth and practice self-control on a leash. That said, she is an intelligent, quick learner and will surely correct easily. Queen will thrive in a home that can provide plenty of mental and physical stimulation to keep her happy and healthy. She would do well in a home with children and she seems like she could enjoy the company of other dogs as well. If you're ready to welcome a fun-loving and energetic companion into your home, Queen is eager to meet you! With a bit of patience, she'll become the perfect addition to your family.
