Toby's Rescue

11/27/2024

On the eve of Thanksgiving, we want to take a moment to be grateful! Today, we are hightlighting our four Afghan pups. In April, we were contacted by Kabul Small Animal Rescue with an request. Could we take some of the 300 animals they were airlifting to IAD in June. We said yes and on June 4th, we met our Afghan rescues! In order and swipe for close-ups of each pup.

Misha, (FKA Fish) needed repair of both her CCLs and because of the kind genorosity of Hatton Animal Rescue Foundation Maryland, she is now healthy and good to go and Nov 15th, headed home to her forever home with Carolyn where she is truly loved and adored.

Nala, sweet Nala joined resident kitty and Hannah and Colin who can't imagine life without her and got a bigger sofa to fit all four of them!

KSAR favorite Judy, now GiGi, found her happy place in the country and joins Bella, the resident pup and William and Pheobe. William recently sent this photo saying that Gigi's LOVES to play in the leaves.

Lola was the first to get adopted and is living her best life with Taryn, Chris and the girls.

We are so thrilled that these girls are now living their best lives in the DMV.

Grateful to all the rescuers, fosters, volunteers, adopters that make it possible to give these deserving animals a second chance at life!

Just Adopted! requested we give Liberty a second chance at life and we moved quickly to get her here. She was everything Ericka said, sweet, gentle, crate comfortable, potty trained. We couldn't be happier to say that she has settled in wonderfully with first-time pup owners, Becky and family! Mom says, "She really has a wonderful personality. She wants to do the right thing, and listens so well. Every time we take her for a walk, she does these happy squiggles in the grass. She must really love being able to go for walks outside after what her experience was like before. I’m glad we’re able to give her the attention she deserves!"

Still Available! We don't understand it! This gorgeous, friendly, happy 18-month-old boy is still waiting for his forever home! Found on the streets of DC by TR fosters with just a collar but no tag or microchip, 43 lb Cookie has the sweetest personality in addition to being crate and potty trained. Currently hanging with fosters, , Gabrielle and Ian say, "Went for a walk and gave him some puzzle toys / the sniffle mat to try. He seemed to love it! We’re both in the office today so he’s crated! He did great in the crate last night. He’s picking up on “stay” pretty quickly. Clearly eager to learn. We’ll work on more commands this weekend.....Took him for a long walk at the arboretum where he made a dog friend and had a good romp. At a nearby brewery now. It’s crowded but he’s being totally chill and just working on his bully"

JUST Adopted! This big-eared beauty finalized the details with Lenore in the last couple of days. Sweet Suzy, now Brooke, caught Lenore's eye when we first posted her a couple of months ago. Brooke had a rough beginning, living on the streets of San Juan and being a mom several times over in her short life, she also had to be treated for Heartworm but all that is behind her now. She is now safe and loved and joins TR alum, Rico and some feline friends. Lenore has been a passionate and loyal believer in TR since we brought in our first few satos.

Available and adoptable Maddie is a cute, sassy and busy girl! A pint-sized pup of 12 lbs, she is a brave and curious girl who is always ready to play and have fun. She has a cutely stubborn side and loves to play "catch me if you can"! Her funny antics and her cutely protective nature to other dogs getting in the way of her getting all the attention are pretty laughable. Are we calling her a diva? Well, maybe just a little! Maddie is a sweetheart who is full of love, s***k and personality and she is looking for a special someone to give her a forever home. She was surrendered to BARCS shelter in Baltimore and we quickly picked her up and got her cleaned up and settled into TRHQ as she waits for her loving furever home. Check her out: https://youtu.be/FX2kJ5Cetxg

Sweet Maddie is three-years-old cute, funny, busy and inquisitive! This pint sized pup will keep you in stitches. Maddie enjoys other pups and likes to bos...

Just adopted! Gourdie, now Frankie, our sweet, goofy, tail-wagging pup has settled in wonderfully with Sabrina. He joins a neighborhood pack of pups and has been having the time of his life playing with all his local friends.
Sabrina has her own village of cheerleaders in the 'hood, including Courtney, as she becomes a dog mom for her first time.
Proud mom, Sabrina says, "He’s been sleeping in a bed next to mine and doing so well. He’s only been crated once when we went out. He did great and is really enjoying playing in the crate otherwise."
Thank you Hatton Animal Rescue Foundation Maryland for giving this wonderful boy a second chance at life!

FOREVER FOSTER! What is that? It is when one of our senior pups are looking for a loving, furever home but may have medical needs that may require potentially more expensive medical care down the road. We, through the generious and amazing kindness of Hatton Animal Rescue Foundation Maryland, pay medical bills for the pup for the rest of their lives!
You get to love the pup and treat it as your family member with none of the concern of unexpected medical bills!
That being the case - Meet Gucci, sweet, cuddly, affectionate little shadow Gucci - a havanese/pug mix.
https://www.petfinder.com/dog/gucci-73993367/md/chevy-chase/tobys-rescue-md522/
Gucci is looking for a quiet, loving home where he can gaze deeply into your eyes and remind you that he loves you. He loves his walks, he sleeps through the night in his crate, is happy to have a canine buddy but is equally happy being the only pup in the house!
Check out his Petfinder and if interested, reach out to Moira!

ADOPTED and ADORED! This is an extra long post because Misha's story deserves to be told! It is with great joy that we formally announce that sweet Misha is ADOPTED! Misha (Fish) one of four pups that we accepted in June from Kabul Small Animal Rescue when they did their 300 animal airlift to IAD. She arrived limping and in pain and it took time to sort out what was going on. Fast forward 5 months, surgery for two torn CCLs and PT and Misha is doing great. When Carolyn saw her, she knew she was the one for her. We moved slowly to give Misha a chance to make the adjustment from barn pup at Hatton Animal Rescue Foundation Maryland to living the luxury life indoors in an apartment but she took to it as to the manor born!
Mom, Carolyn says, "Misha is the best thing that’s happened in a long time. She is just wonderful....We had another good night. She likes to sleep by the bed and I am ordering her a very nice dog bed so it will be soft and support her...She is just darling, so good with people and other dogs. Tonight I’ll take her to Lisa’s house for dinner to meet the cats and my granddaughter, who is very excited to see her in person."
We are truly thrilled to make this match. Welcome home, Misha!

Pupdate! Adopted and adored - We checked in recently with first-time pup owners, Shaun and family to see how Pooh (FKA Pooh Bear) had settled in. Adopted in February of this year, Shaun says "Pooh loves playing with Charlotte, going for walks and playing at the dog park. He has also mostly gotten along well with his feline brother. Sometimes they steal each others food but mostly tolerate each other’s presence!
So glad to see Toby’s Rescue continue with its mission, and we are lucky to have Pooh Bear in our lives."
