🌟 Adoption Spotlight: Jet 🌟 *Needs experienced adopter* Meet Jet, a stunning 1-year-old Miniature Australian Shepherd who weighs just 15 lbs fully grown. Don’t let his size fool you—Jet is full of personality and quirks, and he’s looking for a very special adopter who can give him the patient, experienced home he deserves. Jet came to us from a backyard breeding case but was originally rescued by a Good Samaritan who gave him a safe place when he needed it most. Unfortunately, due to financial struggles, she was unable to keep him long term, but her greatest wish is for him to find a home that will love and understand him for who he is. 🐾 Personality & Behavior Jet is a nervous, cautious boy who was not well socialized as a puppy. Because of this, he can be a bite risk if he feels overwhelmed or cornered. He’s not the type of dog who immediately seeks out cuddles—instead, he prefers to do his own thing, especially when outside. Once he builds trust, he can be incredibly sweet and will show you glimpses of his loving side, even offering his paw for attention. He is: Not suitable for a home with children (he startles easily and is uncomfortable with fast movements). Previously lived in a home with cats, but we have not retested him here—so any introductions should be slow and careful. Indifferent to other dogs—he doesn’t seek them out but also doesn’t go looking for trouble. Very vocal, which makes him unsuitable for apartment living. Jet also has the quirk of being a submissive pee-er, which will need patience and gentle handling. While he was previously in a home and is likely potty trained, adopters should expect some retraining in the first week as he transitions from kennel life. 🏡 Ideal Home for Jet Jet needs a calm, child-free home with adopters who have experience with herding breeds or shy, anxious dogs. His adopter should be someone who: Understands that building trust will take time. Can provide structure, routine, and positive reinforcement. Is open to consulting a vet about anxiety medication, as it may help him thrive. Can give him mental stimulation (training, puzzles, structured play) since Aussies are naturally intelligent and active. Jet is not a dog who will immediately settle into family outings or busy social lives—he is more of a homebody who will flourish in a quieter environment with the right person. 🩺 Medical & Care Jet is: Neutered, microchipped, and fully vaccinated (Rabies, Distemper, Lepto, Bordetella). Heartworm tested negative. On monthly flea/tick and heartworm prevention. Treated for fleas and dewormed. At just 1 year old, Jet has his whole life ahead of him—but he needs someone willing to meet him where he is and help him grow into the wonderful companion we know he can be. ❤️Jet is not just a pretty face—though he is absolutely beautiful, it’s important that adopters look past his looks and see the sensitive soul behind them. With time, patience, and love, Jet could be your most loyal companion. 📍 Located in Louisa County, VA 📧 Email: adoptions@hoovesandpaws.org 📝 Apply: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/HPAW/Dog

Story

We adopted Roxanne in July 2024. Originally she was my mother’s dog (who lives with me), but she only bonded to me. It is evident she has been abused in the past but she has come a long way as far as not being so timid, but she still gets quite nervous around new people (especially men). She does great with other dogs and cats once she has time to adjust (may get nervous and want to hide at first). She is a very sweet girl once you earn her trust, LOVES to snuggle and will beg for belly rubs.

New Market, VA

Size

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Marmaduke is a big goofy lovebug! He adores children and other dogs. He is very curious about cats and chickens and is probably best in a home without those (or where he can be separated from them). He is only about 1 year old and has been in rescue all his life. He had a medical issue as a puppy that required surgery and he is completely healed from that. He will do best in a home with a secure fenced yard, another dog or dogs to play with that are not tiny since he's so big, and respectful animal-loving children that will love him as much as he loves them. If you are interested in Marmaduke, please fill out an application at our website: forrescue.net He is fostered in the Huntsville, AL area and could be available for transport but transport fees are on top of the adoption fee.
