River is your confident little sidekick-in-training, with that “new place? new people? cool, I’m in” kind of energy. She’s fostered in a loving home with an older pitbull she adores playing with, and she’s the type of girl who walks into a room, makes a new friend immediately and promptly checks on the snack situation. River is estimated to be 7 months old, currently weighs 24 lbs with some growing to do, and all signs point to he being a cattle dog/heeler type. No guarantees of course given she is a rescue. River has great basic leash skills and meets new people with friendly confidence. She’s super affectionate and will pop up for some love, but it’s the sweet kind of “hi, nice to meet you. I like you!” enthusiasm, not a wild child moment. She welcomes pets and will immediately circle back for more pets if you happen to stop, because attention is one of her favorite hobbies. Insider tip- River loves treats and takes them gently, which makes her a dream for bonding, training, and general “yes, I work for snacks” negotiations. Want to see River in action? Head to YouTube for “River | Confident Adventure Pal” https://youtu.be/HdPOJnqrqg4 River is polite and confident meeting new dogs. She likes to get a feel of the vibe before jumping right into a play session but once she does- its all play even with pushier, rough and tumble dogs. She offers play bows, will chase and be chase, roll with the tumbles, and keep coming back for more. She’ll be happiest with a medium-energy dog buddy who enjoys chase and play without being overly pushy, since she can get understandably annoyed if a dog plays too intense and doesn’t take breaks Home-life wise, River could thrive in a house with a yard or an apartment setup, especially in an area where she can get consistent outings. She’s a heeler-type girl, so having regular walks, hikes, and “let’s learn something fun” time will make her shine. Treat-motivated + confident = a dog who’s ready to become someone’s hiking pal, training partner, and everyday bestie. Quick highlights: * Confident and affectionate with new people * Treat-motivated, gentle and smart * Dog-friendly with a preference for happy-go-lucky play pals * Adventure-ready! Bring on the walks, hikes, and training-yes please! If you’re looking for a smart, confident companion with a playful side and a heart that leans in for friendship, River is here and calling your name.

Arizona is a 4-month-old female pup that weighs approximately 16 lbs and has not had an easy young life so far. She was dumped in the desert along the Texas/Mexico border, where she had to find her own food, water and shelter, all while protecting herself against the freezing weather and bigger dogs/predators. After some time, she got into a gated RV mobile home park and took refuge under a shed. The neighbors started feeding her, so she at least didn’t go hungry until one of the neighbors complained, and the RV park said to get rid of her (typical). Arizona was scared and wouldn’t go to anyone, so a good Samaritan with a dog trap had to go out there and trap her to get her to safety to ensure she didn’t fall into the wrong hands. February 1st is the first time we think she was handled by humans as she is so timid and fearful, but so submissive and gentle. The foster says she is super quiet and hasn’t made a peep since she got her on February 1st. She flinches with noises and we think everyone always yelled at her probably to go away or swung at her to move, if she was trying to get food to eat or shelter to sleep under. Arizona is going through a lot of her firsts, such as she learned recently what a dog bed is and she is loving it! She loves her toys, especially kongs and toys with squeakers. She will sit with a toy in her mouth and just keep squeaking it repeatedly, unsure of what else to do with it. We know with time, she will learn to properly play with all of her toys. Arizona is learning how to walk on a leash, and it’s a working progress but she is learning slowly! We strongly believe another dog in the home to help build her confidence is a must, or if there is no other dog, someone that is home more than not, that can take her to socialize, properly train and be patient with her as she learns how to be a puppy. Arizona loves her crate; it’s her safe place. She loves other dogs and to reiterate another confident dog in the home to help her learn to be a dog would truly help her. Arizona will be a medium sized dog and would be good in an apartment or in a house with a yard. She needs someone who is patient and understands she will need lots of love to get her out of her shell completely. Arizona will be spayed, she is current on age appropriate vaccinations, dewormed, microchipped, current on flea/tick and heart worm prevention, and will receive a clean bill of health from a veterinarian prior to adoption/transport. To apply to adopt you can go to our website at: www.pawsitive-Impact-animal-rescue.org This animal is currently located in Texas, but we do NOT adopt animals out in Texas due to the hundreds of animals being euthanized here daily. We do adopt in Central US and the East Coast. The adoption fee listed INCLUDES transport from Texas to the location where this animal is posted in. Transport goes to the following locations every 2-3 weeks Albany, NY Wells and Brattleboro, VT Willington, Enfield, New Haven and Dayville, CT Port Chester, NY Dayon and Akron, OH Grove City and Bloomsburg, PA Ridgefield and Mt Laurel, NJ White Marsh and Falls Church, MD We have happily adopted hundreds of animals this way (long distance), and we do our best to make sure the animal you are applying for is best fit for your home.
