Story
Katie is a very energetic dog. She needs to have a fenced in yard where she can run and exercise. She is 4 years and 10 months old. She gets along with other dogs. We have three cats that she gets along with but does like to play and chase them. I think she would be better in a home that does not have other dogs because she will want all the attention she can get. She is very affectionate. She needs to have exercise and will walk on a leash. She does like to chase squirrels and birds. I have owned Katie since she was a puppy and unfortunately we are going to live fulltime in a rv traveling and Katie will not be able to get the proper attention and exercise that she needs.

I am a sweet happy girl that takes a little time to warm up and needs confidence and socializing with others. I get along with other dogs. I am crate trained. I am doing well with house training except when I get nervous. I would love to find my forever home and my best friend! Click here to watch a video of Tinsel.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 17, 2025, 8:25 am

Story
Ashur has social and separation anxiety and allergies. He needs and deserves attention that I am not able to provide him. He has a lot of energy and loves to play. He needs a human that has a lot of patience and will love him unconditionally. He will surely return the favor. He loves to cuddle. While Ashur may not do well with strangers, once he is familiar with you (doesn't take long) he is a very loving, attached, cuddly 5 year old dog. 🥰 I cannot give him what he needs. He is bored and lonely majority of the day being home alone for a minimum of 12 hours daily. I also learned the hard way that I am allergic to dogs. I will have to put him to sleep soon if I am unable to find Ashur a new home.

Story
Dog Name: Abel Breed: Aussie mix Sex: Male Age: Approx 8 Weight: 65lbs Medical Needs: Heartworm recheck in August. Abel is also blind, but long as he's given time to learn his surroundings, it doesn't affect him all that terribly. That nose leads him when his ears don't. Abel takes ½ a carprofen chew every night with dinner to help with his old man aches. Housebroken: Yes Crate trained: Yes Good in the car: Yes Good on a leash: Yes Energy level: Low, with occasional zoomies Need a fenced in yard: No, leashed walks will be fine Dog Friendly: Yes If yes, does your foster need another dog in its adoptive homes? He might enjoy a friend and potential “seeing eye” buddy, but it's not a requirement. Cat Friendly? He sniffs for them, but seems to have adjusted to their presence. Dog-savvy cats would be best. Kid Friendly: Yes If yes, what's the youngest child you'd recommend they be placed with? Children old enough to understand and respect his impairments. Special traits that make your foster special or that we need to know about them? Abel is as sweet as he is soft, and loves nothing more than to curl up beside his people or with a nice bone to chew on. You'll rarely remember he's there, he's so quiet in the house - he saves his barking for the neighborhood gossip with other dogs. This ol’ southern boy is a proper gentleman, tolerant of anything from brushing to baths, nail trims, and even having his mouth messed with. Frankly, so long as you're touching him and talking to him, he's convinced he's in heaven, and he'll do whatever you want him to if it means you'll never stop. Foster’s Location: Frederica, DE Application can be found here: https://www.grrde.org/adoption-application (if you already have an approved application on file email GrassRootsDE@gmail.com and ask the app team to pull your app) ##2270185##
