Story
JJ is an energetic, 13 year old flat coated retriever. We have taken care of JJ for the last 6 years after fostering/adopting him from an active duty service member who was deployed overseas for an extended period during the pandemic. He is reactive to other dogs but has mellowed some in his old age. We are putting him up for adoption because we do not feel comfortable with him around our 1 year old daughter. He has shown signs of aggression toward her on occasion (growling) so we would not recommend JJ to a family with children. He has lots of energy still for a dog his age. His favorite place is the National Arboretum and also frequents Greenbelt park, the National Mall, and surrounding state/national parks. He also LOVES the snow, ice cream, cold weather, and Oreos. We love him so much. We want him to have the best family surrounding him so if you think you can love him half as much as we do, please reach out.

Fostering in a home in Memphis, TN and foster mom would love to share all the stories.

Story
Foster Homes Needed! Do you have time and room in your life for a foster dog? http://www.muttloverescue.org/foster.html *****************   Sooney came to Mutt Love from a rural shelter.  She responds best to the name “Suki”, which was her name along the way.  She is very responsive to training sessions with treats and shows confidence.  She is extremely high energy and enjoys being engaged. She loves dogs, doesn’t turn down invitations to play and plays hard.  She is responding positively to crate training.  Sooney/Suki is an escape artist, therefore a tall, solid fence is a must for her safety.  She vocalizes for attention and is a silly, bouncy girl who is well loved by her caretakers.  She would be best matched to an experienced family.  **BECAUSE OF OUR REQUIREMENT FOR A HOME VISIT, WE ARE ONLY ABLE TO ADOPT TO HOMES IN THE NORTHERN VA / MARYLAND / DC METRO AREA** We have adoption events EVERY SATURDAY from 12-3 p.m. Please note that not all dogs can attend every event, so if you are interested in meeting a particular dog, please complete a no-obligation application on our website at http://www.muttloverescue.org/application.html OR write to adopt@muttloverescue.org.
