Story
Meet Anita! Age: Golden Oldie (12+ years old) Weight: 42 pounds Good with: Dogs and all humans, but I haven't met any cats just yet! House trained: yes! Crate trained: not needed, I'm a perfect lady. Special needs: I have some vision impairments, so steps aren't really ideal, and my hearing isn't so great anymore either, but I'm pretty much good as gold otherwise! I'm just a lovely lady looking to find her forever people to spend the rest of my days with! I really enjoy being with my humans as much as possible, so if you could take me with you all the places you go, I'd be one happy gal. I enjoy car rides, and I walk well on a leash, so I promise to be on my best behavior on our adventures together. If you must leave me home, I'll voice my displeasure in it, but I promise to settle down and nap while you're away and not get into any trouble. Heck, if you give me a Kong filled with peanut butter, that'll keep me occupied for a while, too! I'm really just looking for some nice humans to let me sleep in bed with them (I can still manage to jump on and off the furniture just fine on my own) and show me a little love here and there. That's not too much to ask, right? I promise to make you laugh and love you right back. With every beat of my heart. Are you ready to make a little space in your heart and home for me? *Anita is being fostered in Plover, WI. Albert's Dog Lounge is a specialty rescue focusing primarily on senior and special needs dogs.

Story
Odette is a 12-week-old mixed breed sweetheart with a whole lot of charm! She’s the kind of pup that wins hearts wherever she goes. While we can’t say for certain what her breed mix is, our veterinarian’s best guess includes American Staffordshire Terrier, Labrador Retriever, Kelpie, and a generous helping of pure adorable mystery. Odette and her littermates had a rough start—discovered in an abandoned building in Texas. Luckily, our amazing friends at Waterford Wags swooped in to save them and reached out to us for help. After lots of love, good food, and belly rubs, Odette is thriving! She’s even bouncing back beautifully from a little skin mishap (nothing gruesome, we promise—her gorgeous coat is growing in wonderfully). She’s up to date on immunizations, dewormed, microchipped, and ready to find her adoptive home! At Blackberry Point Haven, we believe adoption should be fun and meaningful, not filled with red tape. That’s why we follow the ASPCA guidelines for conversation-based adoptions—no lengthy applications, no home invasions, just thoughtful discussions to ensure the best match for both pup and family.

Story
Wilma is being fostered in NJ. Wilma is a wonderful companion and a very sweet lady. She will gently take a piece of kibble or a treat from your hand. She loves treats and biscuits! Wilma also likes back rubs and sitting nearby her person. Walking is another favorite activity, and she will tilt her head to listen to the sounds in the neighborhood. She is a gentle walker, doesn't pull, but will stop to listen. She will respond with a deep bark to other barking dogs. She is not afraid of dogs and does not respond aggressively, but if a dog continues to bark at her, she will also keep barking. Wilma gets along with the cat in her foster home as well as the rabbit. She will sit at the door to indicate she needs to go outside, and will go to her bed to nap or sleep for the night after she has visited outside. She's just a sweetheart who wants to be with her person! BDRA has voted against the use of electrical fencing effective immediately.
