Story
💔 URGENT: CAVIAR’S HEART HAS BEEN BROKEN TWICE 💔 Just a few months ago, Caviar walked out of the shelter believing he had finally found his forever home. Now, through no fault of his own, he’s back… abandoned and wondering where his family went. This handsome 3-year-old, 39-pound sweetheart hasn’t let his heartbreak change who he is. Caviar is incredibly affectionate, loves being around people, walks beautifully on a leash, and is dog friendly. His stunning blue eyes are impossible to forget, but it’s his gentle, loving heart that will truly steal yours. Caviar doesn’t deserve to spend another day in a shelter after already losing the home he thought would be forever. He deserves a family who will keep the promise someone else broke. 🐾 Caviar • 3 years old • 39 lbs • Neutered • Dog friendly • Sweet, affectionate, and easy to love Please help us make sure Caviar never has to experience this heartbreak again. His forever family is still out there—we just need to help them find him. ❤️ PLEASE HURRY TEXT KAREN 4136298152

Story
Georgey (or in Spanish, Gorge) is an 11-month-old pup that weighs approximately 32 lbs. While we do not know who his parents are, we believe he is Australian kelpie mixed with lab or catahoula. Either way, he is definitely adorable and very petite. We do think he is full grown as he has not grown since we got him. He has been in foster care since March 2025 - He was born on a ranch in south Texas, where a stray dog had puppies at. Only Gorge and his brother, Johnny, were surrendered though. We don’t know what happened to the other puppies or the parents. This awesome boy absolutely loves other dogs; big and small. He is currently being fostered in a sanctuary in south Texas, along the Texas/Mexico border. This amazing sanctuary is only a short term stop for this fur-baby until their forever home is found. Gorge is a goofy boy – he is always willing to try something first and would be considered the “class clown” of the group. He is a pleaser and loves being accepted by the other dogs. He is more submissive than most. Gorge loves his toys and playing around the yard. There is nothing he does not like doing. He is all around a very relaxed and easy going boy that would fit almost all types of households. He loves being around his people and will follow you around, trying to please you too. Gorge gets a little jealous when other dogs are out playing and he is in kennel. He will make very sad whimpering sounds in hopes to get let out, and usually it works! Gorge loves his toys so much that he decides it’s much better to have 20 pieces of one toy than just one toy! Tough toys are definitely a must for young Gorgey. He has met kitties and he has no issues with them! He would live very happy with other dogs and kitties in the home. Gorge is so friendly that he loves kids, strangers and really, any human! Gorge would love a home that has another dog or dogs, where he can play, have a kiddo pool full of water to lay in and go on walks around the neighborhood to explore and see new things. He would be truly great for most types of households. This animal is fixed (spayed/neutered), heart worm positive (they have received the 30-day course of antibiotics and need to stay on heart worm prevention for 12-16 months and be retested then), current on age-appropriate vaccinations, current on flea/tick and heart worm prevention, microchipped, current on de-wormer, and will receive a clean bill of health from a licensed veterinarian prior to transport. PLEASE READ BELOW: 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 ONLY do adopt in Central US and the East Coast. The adoption fee listed ($495) INCLUDES transport from Texas to the Northeast. Transport goes to the following locations every 2-3 weeks: Albany, NY – Only one transport company goes here, once a month Wells, VT and Brattleboro, VT Nashua, NH – Only one transport company goes here, times vary Willington, CT - Stamford, CT - Dayville, CT Steubenville, OH – Cincinnati, OH – Grove City, OH Grove City, PA and Washington, PA – THESE STOPS ARE ON HOLD AS OF 7/1 UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE Ridgefield, NJ and Mt Laurel, NJ Emmitsburg, MD and Elkton, MD Falls Church, VA and Glenn Allen, VA 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. With an approved application, we do put you in touch with the foster who has the animal for you to ask any specific questions regarding them.

Story
This unique little guy is bursting with personality! He looks like a Shepherd and talks like a husky but he’s actually a Kelpie-Chihuahua mix! He has all the characteristics of a kelpie in a compact, 22 lb. size. Originally saved from an overcrowded kill shelter in NC, he is now thriving in his foster home where he has shown to be amazing around dogs of all sizes and in large playgroups. And, he doesn’t seem to mind the kitties, either. He is crate-trained and surprisingly relatively quiet. He is not destructive and, given the high intelligence of the breed, he can entertain himself for hours with toys and mental enrichment food puzzles. He walks phenomenal on leash and would even do well in an apartment setting. Older kids recommended due to the typical potential nippyness of the herding breed. If you are interested in learning more and/or meeting this special little guy, please TEXT/CALL Aly at 732-604-0625. Thank you for caring about a pet in need!

Story
***** URGENT - FOSTER OR ADOPTER NEEDED! LOSING FOSTER HOME 6/5! ***** Qawha (pronounced ka-wa), is a 3 y/o, apx. 45-50 lb. Kelpie-Lab mix who was saved from euthanasia at the Memphis TN shelter. Her unique name means “coffee” in Arabic and was inspired by her strikingly rich, deep coffee-colored coat. This poor girl has been bounced around a lot and now she finds herself in an urgent situation yet again as her foster mom will be traveling beginning 6/5 and she has nowhere to go! :,-( Beautiful Qawha is active and energetic, very intelligent, affectionate, and loyal - all the combined traits of a Kelpie and a Lab. She loves being outside and exploring the yard, especially with another pup or her people to keep her company. Qawha will be best set up to thrive in an active home with at least one other dog as a fursibling. We are not sure about cats though as she does display some hunting instincts when out on walks. PLEASE - if you can help Qawha by fostering or adopting, TEXT/CALL Aly at 732-604-0625 ASAP as time is of the essence! We also have videos of her with other dogs and additional pictures to share! Thank you for caring about a pet in urgent need!
