Story
Pretty Pixie is looking for her very special and lucky forever home.  Pixie needs a securely fenced yard plus another playful pup.  Pixie loves to play with her foster siblings.  Pixie is a 2-year-old, 12-pound petite schnauzer.  She is super soft and hypoallergenic.  Pixie is looking for a special foster home.  Before coming to OBG, Pixie was a breeder pup and didn't live a normal dog's life.  As a result, Pixie is very timid.  She does wag her tail for her Foster Mom and comes when called.  Pixie will bark at new people when they first come over, especially men.  Pixie will need a securely fenced yard in her forever home.  She takes daily, inexpensive doggie prozac, and it has really helped her blossom.  She absolutely loves her foster siblings and will need another pup in her forever home. To learn more about our sweet Pixie, please email adoptme@cockerspanielsrescue.com.  She is located in Alexandria, VA.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 13, 2025, 7:24 pm

Story
❗Current Location: in a foster home in South Korea❗ • Personality: She's sociable and energetic. She adapts to new places right away and loves to reach out to new people and friends she meets. She knows how to say hello to familiar people and friends. She loves to play with other dogs and loves to play with people. She picks up on new training quickly, so we think she would make a great dog for a family with a good understanding and training knowledge of dogs. She's a bit of a sneaky prankster right now, so she can get into trouble, but she's affectionate, gentle, and full of energy. • Affinity with -Cats:She is currently living with cats in a temporary foster home. She is not aggressive with cats, but she is very interested in them, so if you have a cat that likes dogs, she would be fine. -Dogs: She is currently living with the dogs in her foster home without any issues. They play well with each other, are socialized, and warm up quickly to new dogs they meet. -Adults/Kids: She is very fond of people and loves to be petted. She warms up quickly to people she meets for the first time. • Shedding: Moderate. There is shedding in certain periods. Her fur is best brushed daily with a silicone brush. • Walking Manner: She loves to go for walks, both familiar and new, and prefers to take fast, wide, territorial walks (rather than slow, sniffing the trails). He also loves to run in the park, but will sometimes try to run outside if there is no fence. she is fast and has a lot of energy, so she loves to run around in large parks and meet people and dogs. she also loves to go for walks in the mountains, but she has a hunting instinct and is interested in small snakes, rodents, and birds. • Housetrained: She goes potty on pee pads and highly prefers to go outside. She can chew on wood and plastic furniture and will grab small items that fall on the floor and play with them. She's very playful and will run around with you if you have a like-minded friend in the house. • Separation Anxiety: She's always been around other dogs, so we can't confirm, but we think she'll be fine on her own. • Bark or Howl: She barks briefly when she hears strangers outside. There is no howl • Carsickness: She had drooling at first, but now she rides well.

Story
Meet Sir Jacob Fahnsworth! His Schnauzery Highness is full of life, energy, and pure joy. He runs and plays like the happiest dog in the world, and we think he just might be! He is completely housebroken, so well behaved, and very eager to please. He lives for getting compliments and positive reinforcement! As befits a member of royalty, Sir Jacob expects only the finest snacks and belly rubs. In return, he knows how to sit, give his paw for a treat, and come when called. You can tell he has definitely been loved and trained well in the past. His forever family will need to give him plenty of exercise, either via a fenced yard or leashed walks. He's an absolute champ with other dogs and loves trotting around with them, and he's generally very obedient. He barks a bit when his foster mom leaves and to greet her when she comes home because he's so excited to see her (and we can't blame him!). He has a heart murmur but it's not symptomatic. After his dental in March, he'll be more than ready to find the forever home he deserves! Could you be Sir Jacob's happily ever after? Fostered in Richmond, VA Please apply to adopt at MirisHaven.org

Story
**SENIOR** Griffin is a spunky and playful fellow! He loves to run and play around with his buddies and does well with his foster's dog. He loves people too and he would love to find his forever home with someone who would take him on walks, let him meet and frolic with other dogs, and just be a pal. Griffin is easy to walk on leash and his foster describes him as "a real people dog" who follows her around the house to stay close. Griffin just had a spa day where he was washed and got a fresh new haircut for the spring!  At only 18 pounds, Griffin is easy to transport and would love to go on adventures with you, even if they are close to home or just around your neighborhood! At 6 years years old he is technically a senior but he has many years ahead to love and explore with a new family. Griffin is not only about fun, he is also very loving and enjoys napping with his person but he will not get on the couch or bed without being invited. He is good about going in his crate, barking just a bit until he settles down.  Griffin will make a great companion and snuggle bug. He just wants to be with a person who will appreciate his playful side, allow him a sense of security, and love him forever. ##2333398##
