Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained,
Story
Took in from someone that needed to get rid of him but my roommates moved out and I just can't give him the time or attention he needs. He is a young dog, guessing between 1-2yrs old. He is very loving, play nibbles but has never bit anyone or any other animals. He does require a lot of attention and training as he is still young. He does have a tendency to jump but that's all. He is leash and crate trained. Not completely house trained yet though. Just looking to find him a really loving home with some space to run.

Riker is a sweet guy I adopted as a little puppy last April. When I got him I was going to be working from home however changes to my job as well as needing to relocate mean that Riker needs a new home. He is a very sweet dog who is decent at walking with the right motivation, loves to play fetch and loves his sister (the cat in the picture)

Story
Hi All, This is Seven. Seven is 5 years old, and he is the sweetest Toy Poodle. It breaks my heart to have to rehome Seven, so please know this is not easy and no way reflects how amazing of a buddy Seven is. Seven is great with kids, may actually be a preference as he has lots of energy. Seven is also very friendly with dogs, both small and large. As a small dog, it is common for a little anxiety and sometimes I notice a little separation anxiety with him. After a few, he’s all set again! Small dog that thinks he is a bulldog, never bit anyone, but will growl and warn if he feels he has to protect his humans. Trained and ready to meet you all! ❤️

Buddy

Shar Pei

Male, Adult
Glenn Dale, MD
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Meet Buddy - a 7-year-old, 60-pound bear-coat Chinese Shar Pei Buddy’s qualities make him an ideal companion: 🐾 Affectionate and loyal. 🐾 Easygoing (he enjoys quiet mornings and relaxing evenings). 🐾 Housebroken and well-mannered. As with many dogs of his breed, Buddy benefits when: 👂 Routine ear care is performed. 👀 His eye boogies are wiped, daily. He's currently taking: 💊 A daily allergy medication (Apoquel) [we're hopeful the diet he's on will eliminate his need for this.] Buddy has been a beloved family member since he was a puppy, but after his owner's recent passing, he is looking for a caring home that can offer immediate placement. Buddy has been fostered with another dog and has shown curiosity surrounding cats, but has only had distanced interactions. He will most likely adapt well to your pets with proper introductions and space to adjust. If you’re seeking a devoted companion who thrives on love, Buddy could be the perfect fit! ✨

Meli

Belgian Malinois

Female, Young
Hyattsville, MD
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Meli is a loving, energetic, and playful dog who was rescued from a shelter in the DC area. Born in July 2023, she is now about a year and a half old and full of life. Unfortunately, due to recent changes in my circumstances, I am no longer able to provide Meli with the care and attention she deserves. I believe she would thrive in a home where she can receive the time, love, and dedication she needs to live her best life. Meli truly is a special companion, and she will bring so much joy to her future family.
