Story
Brisky is the kind of dog who wins hearts fast. This sweet, loving boy immediately earned the love and respect of his foster family, and its easy to see why. He's house-trained, food-motivated, great on walks, and gets along wonderfully with other dogs. Brisky is looking for a home that can match his mild-to-medium energy level. He loves his toys, enjoys spending time outdoors, and is just as happy curling up on the couch for a movie night. While he's a little timid around children, he isn't unfriendly; he simply prefers slow introductions and would do best in a home without young kids. Not much of a barker, Brisky still takes his job as household protector seriously and will make you feel both loved and safe. He's smart, eager to learn, and with a few treats, hell probably have some entertaining party tricks mastered in no time. If you're looking for a loyal companion who can brighten a room, keep you company on adventures, and snuggle up for a cozy night in, Brisky may just be your perfect match.

Story
Stripe is as sweet as he is handsome, and that signature stripe is just the beginning of what makes him special. This 2-year-old boy has a gentle, loving nature and an easygoing personality that really shines when he’s spending one-on-one time with his people. He adores attention—leaning in for ear scratches, placing his paws in your lap, and soaking up all the hugs and snuggles you’re willing to give. He came to PAW from rural South Carolina, so the sights and sounds of a busy environment are still new to him. On walks, he likes to take things slow—sniffing, observing, and building confidence. He’s shown polite interest in other dogs and, while he can get a little excited at times, he responds well to gentle guidance. Stripe would likely do well in a variety of home environments, especially one that offers a calm, supportive space where he can continue to adjust and feel safe. Stripe has recently been diagnosed as heartworm positive, and he’ll need treatment that includes a few injections followed by periods of strict rest. This means he especially needs a committed foster or adopter who can provide a quiet place for him to recover. PAW will cover treatment and provide full support every step of the way. Despite this temporary setback, Stripe is a young dog with so much love to give and a bright future ahead. All he needs is a safe place to land while he heals—and someone willing to give him the chance he deserves. PAW adopts in the MD, northern VA, DC, and northern PA region ##2683912##

Story
DISCLOSURE: The adoptable pets in our program are still in the care and custody of owners who wish to re-home their pet. Owners have enlisted Rescue Well to provide marketing and screening of applicants as a service, free of charge. All fees and adoption conditions are determined by the owner. We advise that adopters do not send payment or deposits for pets prior to adopting.  ***** Olivia is 2-1/2yo, weighs 50lbs, is spayed, is up to date on her vaccines and is microchipped.  She knows the following commands:  sit, stay, wait, fetch/return the ball.  Olivia's guardian adds:  "She has full access to the house.  We go on 5+ walks, dog park trips, etc. every day.  She sleeps at night in a crate.  She does great in the car.  She dislikes being alone." Olivia's guardian explains why she has made the difficult decision to rehome her: "Olivia is a very social, active girl who needs 24/7 access to a yard and a home with other dogs.  When I adopted her we (myself and the animal shelter) thought she was a quiet girl who was introverted and didn't need much exercise.  As she has gotten more comfortable and confident it is clear she has A LOT of energy and needs to be around other dogs and activity 24/7.  I have been sending her to daycare 2-3x a week but that is not sufficient and I cannot afford to send her any other days.  I have been in contact with her vet as well as local trainers to no avail." Olivia's guardian offers a brief a medical history:  "She occasionally struggles with incontinence and is currently on Proin." Olivia's guardian states the following regarding children:  Although Olivia hasn't lived with children, her guardian recommends her living with children, stating "I have babysat my nephews (infant, toddler) and she has done great". Olivia's guardian states the following regarding dogs:  Although Olivia doesn't live with dogs, her guardian recommends her living with dogs, stating "Olivia LOVES being with dogs.  She's happiest when she sees other dogs/can play with them.  She has never bitten or lunged or been aggressive to other dogs when we are out on walks or at the dog park". Olivia's guardian states the following regarding cats:  Since Olivia doesn't live with nor has otherwise been around cats, her guardian doesn't recommend her living with cats. Olivia's guardian describes her as: Very active Playful Friendly Likes to be touched Affectionate Always at your side Crate-Trained Likes men Likes women Olivia's guardian describes her ideal future home: "- 24/7 access to a fully fenced yard - A large house where she can run and play indoors - Live in a house with other dogs/pets she can play with - Ideally, live with a couple/family. She has not enjoyed living with just me in the apartment." Rehoming Fee:  $50 Location:  New Market, MD***** ADOPTION PROCESS  1. If you are interested in ADOPTING me, please CLICK HERE:  ADOPT ME 2.
