Adoptions in 2025 have been so slow, but the number of dogs in need are at an all-time high. 😢 Unbelievably, Joe has been in rescue for a year. He celebrated his first birthday on February 11th. Joe is an amazing dog who continues to be overlooked. We can't say enough good things about this boy. He's a gorgeous black bully mix who is currently fostered with two male dogs (has been fostered with females too), cats, and 3 kids. He loves to play but can snuggle too. He's house and crate trained, fully vetted. If you're looking for a companion to take on walks, hikes, ball field, or hanging out with the family, Joe is your man!! With Spring around the corner, think of all the fun you can have with Joe by your side! The adoption application can be found on our website. 🥰 🐕

🚨🚨Francis needs a foster or Foster to Adopt ASAP 🚨🚨

Francis Bean (Miracle) was adopted in August but is being returned because she is not a fan of the grandkids who visit often. Francis was emaciated when picked up by Animal Control. Who knows what happened in her previous life but she can be shy at first and prefers a quiet environment. Francis' mom says she is playful, fun and very loving. She also likes to snuggle on the sofa and can be a bit of a velcro dog as she follows her everywhere - but really what dog doesn't follow their owner?!? 😂 Francis walks well on a leash, house trained, crate trained, very obedient and very smart. She does well with dogs and older, calmer kids, but NO SMALL CHILDREN. Once Francis trusts, she will become your loyal companion. She has a lot of love to give to the right family, is that YOU!? Interested in meeting Francis Bean? Please complete your adoption application, which is found on Dirt Road Doggies Rescue website.

Handsome Kylo attended our adoption event last weekend, and everyone fell in love with him. 💙 Kylo is a 1 year old Shepherd mix who came from our local shelter. He's a total love bug who's never met a stranger. Kylo is currently fostered in a home with children, a cat, and a large male German Shepherd named Drogo. Drogo & Kylo are besties and play well together. Kylo needs some leash training, but with practice, he'll ace it!! Complete an adoption application on our website to adopt or meet Kylo. 🐾🐾

There's nothing like a happy Boxer and a ball to put a smile on your face! Heidi is still looking for her forever home! She's a sweet girl who bonds quickly with her people. She's a sensitive soul so would do best in a house with older children and would love to be the center of attention as an only dog or possibly with another submissive dog.

Layla is a beautiful lady. At 22lbs she is a perfect blend of a miniature/standard poodle.

Eight year old Layla was retired from a breeding program several years ago. She is very dog friendly, but due to limited socialization with people, she is very shy and lacks confidence. This causes her anxiety and stress when introduced to new people and situations. She is currently in a loving home with a very experienced foster family. She was prescribed trazadone to help manage her fears and help her feel less anxious. It certainly has made a difference.

Layla is gentle, loving and very intelligent. She is crate trained and uses a doggy door. She loves being outside. It appears to make her feel free and happy.

We believe Layla’s ideal home will be with experienced very patient adopters. Also another confident dog to help her cope. A fenced yard is required.

Layla is spayed, microchipped and up to date on vaccines. Dirt Road Doggie’s Rescue is accepting adoption applications now. 🩷

UPDATE: We have reached out goal!! A BIG thank you to everyone who donated! 💗We appreciate you more than you know! 🥰

🙏Today, we're asking for help from our village. 🙏 Buddy, a handsome German Shepherd, was adopted to a family in Pensacola, Florida a few weeks ago. Buddy, now Buckley, was adjusting well until he wasn't. 🥲Buddy's backstory: Buddy grew up in a home with an elderly gentleman and got very little socialization, training or discipline. He ran the household. As he got bigger, his owner could no longer handle him. Buddy went to a wonderful foster family who socialized and worked on basic obedience and Buddy did great - he is a VERY smart boy. 💙Once in Pensacola, Buddy decided he was the boss again. Instead of his family returning Buddy to us, we offered to pay for training - $760 - bill & receipt are in the photos. Buddy started mid-January and is doing great!! His trainer has been very impressed with Buddy's progress so far. Back to the fundraising: We don't have funds set aside for training so we're hoping for help from our pack. 🫶 Any amount will help. As always, thank you for supporting the Doggies. 🐾🐕 Please share!! 💗

Just look at Layla! 🐕 A few days ago, Layla and siblings were living outdoors, eating whatever a few kind people gave them and trying to survive the cold. Another sad story coming from a county without animal control or a safety net for abandoned animals. These precious dogs were left behind when their family moved. There were 8 or 9 dogs originally, but only two have survived: Layla and Franklin. We are happy to say they are both in loving foster homes.! Layla had a vet appointment last week where we learned she is pregnant. Stay tuned - we should have puppies in early February! She's going to be an amazing momma! 🥰🐾 #dirtroaddoggiesrescue #fosteringsaveslives #spayandneuteryourpets #dogsarefamilyforlife

We introduced Buddy a few days ago but wanted to show you guys his playful puppy side. 🐕 Buddy is an 8 month old German Shepherd who enjoys playing with his foster brother, Zero.
