๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’œLIAM is looking for a human he can adore. He is some kind of hound mix (maybe some Vizla, maybe some Pointer) but whatever the mix, it includes a pound of sweetness. He is a velcro dog, following his foster around the house and always wanting to be around the humans. If you want a dog who is snuggly and devoted, give Liam a try! He will gaze at you with those amazing golden eyes and give you doggie kissses galore.

He is about 2 years old and a very manageable 37 pounds. He is small enough to do well in a townhouse, as long as he gets regular walks and outdoor time. He loves goving for long walks with his foster and does not pull on the leash too much. He is a hound so he loves sniffing and will enjoy walks or hikes in the woods. He is interested in everything--smells, people (including little ones), dogs and other animals, and bicycles and scooters that pass. He loves to be with other dogs and would be happy to be in a home with a dog sibling or would be fine as an only dog.

His foster says he rides well in a car and is accustomed to being crated at night. He is housetrained but will probably need a little refresher when he moves homes. Don't you want some kisses from Liam? Come meet him at one of our adoption shows!

๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸพLUCIE Needs a Foster!!๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿถ

Lucie is a lovely 46 pound, seven year old pointer mix. She has been living with a family for the last four years but sadly her adopter has become quite ill and could no longer care for her. This sweet girl is used to living in a home. She is housebroken, friendly with other dogs, and enjoys getting out for walks. As a senior she is not overly energetic - still enjoys playing and walks but easily able to settle down in the house and relax and snuggle with her people.

Sweet Lucie does not understand why she is in a kennel. She would love to be back in a home - either with a foster or adopter. Lucie would do best in an adult home with no cats. She has a tendency to be possessive of objects and needs an experienced dog person.

Meet STU, a lovable 10-month-old yellow lab mix who's ready to bring joy and companionship to his forever home! At around 50 lbs, Stu is the perfect size for snuggles and adventures. He's been thriving in his foster home, where he loves playing with his foster brother and hanging out with his foster humans. Stu is already house-trained, crate-trained, and knows basic commands, making him an easy addition to the family. This sweet boy enjoys his daily walks and does well on leash. With playtime and training in his schedule, Stu is happy to settle in and relax, often curling up by your feet while you work or unwind. He's affectionate, very friendly with people, and has a sweet demeanor.

If you're looking for a social and loving companion (with the cutest ears), Stu is the dog for you! He has done wonderfully living with another dog and would thrive in a home with a canine companion to play with, but would also be totally happy bonding with his perfect human match. Stu is the perfect addition to a home where he can continue to grow, learn, and share all his licks and love! Who can say no to those ears?!

Meet Stubbz, a 2yr old Basset Hound Lab mix with a zest for life. He is crate trained and house trained. This spirited pup is a perfect fusion of energy and sweetness, ready to charm his way into your heart and home!

Stubbz is a ball of enthusiasm, always up for an outdoor adventure. Whether it's exploring new trails or playing with his beloved toys, he's the ideal companion for an active lifestyle. However, his energy translates to some excitement during play and leash walks. His foster Mom is currently working on his leash manners, and with a little guidance, he's sure to become a great walking partner. As much as he loves to express his delight, Stubbz can get a bit mouthy which is his way of sharing the exuberance bubbling inside him. With patient training and positive reinforcement to include yummy treats, Stubbz will learn to channel his excitement into more gentle interactions.

Despite his minor quirks, Stubbz is an absolute sweetheart. His strong yet gentle demeanor makes him a delightful cuddle buddy, especially after a fun filled day. Though he enjoys resting near his foster Mom, Stubbz will normally walk unescorted into his open crate, fluff his blankets and go to sleep.

If you're looking for a companion eager for adventure, Stubbz is the perfect match.

Are you ready to embark on a journey of training and companionship? Help Stubbz refine his leash skills, and you'll have a charming and loyal friend for life. His captivating smile and expressive eyes will surely brighten the gloomiest of days.

Stubbz is waiting to bring his unique blend of energy and sweetness into your home.

๐Ÿ‚ Meet Dobby, our handsome, adventure-ready pup who is loving spending time outside this fall! ๐Ÿ This 5-year-old, 77-pound bundle of joy spent his day playing in the leaves, giving them a taste test, and chomping on some sticks he found along the way.

10/29/2024

๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ’œItโ€™s ECHO (Echo!), the hound so nice youโ€™ll want to adopt her twice. This girl is a happy, loving, active, and playful coonhound mix thatโ€™s 2.5 years old and 55 pounds. She is all hound with her big floppy, velvet ears that will keep you coming back for more scritches. Echo loves people and loves her foster parents. Hanging out with her family in the living room on her bed, playing with her toys and watching out the front door is where youโ€™ll find her. She is easy going in the home, easy to care for, and easy to love.

She has house manners and is fully potty trained. She is a shoe-hound and if you leave them out, she will carefully carry them to her bed.
Echo was made for outdoor activities and is very social with people and other dogs who like to play and romp. Her dream is an active family that will take her on sniffing walks, hikes, and on doggy playdates or visits to the dog park on a regular basis. She would love to have a doggie sibling to romp with or regular visits to the park or playdates. If all this sounds fun, Echo is the girl for you.

She wants to experience everything the world has to offer with her super sniffy nose! Sheโ€™s generally easy to walk, but sheโ€™ll need some tight control when a *RABBIT!* enters her field of vision. She loves her foster familyโ€™s schedule of several walks per day plus regular doggy playdates and visits to the dog park. At home, Echo enjoys sitting on the deck, basking in the sun and watching the world go by - a fenced yard or other secure outdoor area would be ideal for her. Come meet her at one of our adoption shows and youโ€™ll get to see her in action!

Please consider fostering our dear, DOBBY until he finds a loving forever home!! PAW will provide all the needed supplies.

DOBBY is a 5yr old, perhaps Great Dane, terrier mix, who weighs about 84lbs.

We are looking for an emergent foster for sweet DOBBY. Sadly, he was returned by his family after 3yrs through NO fault of his own. They report he is well trained and knows basic commands. Dobby is a gentleman who is friendly and great with children. He is a snuggler and though playful, does not require an abundance of exercise. He does need to shed a few pounds.

Fun fact: heโ€™s learned to sit and wait to eat until after โ€œGrace and Amen". ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿฅฐ

Dobby can be dog selective so may be better as an only dog , however PAW will update when we learn more.

PAW will provide his food and supplies should he be placed into a foster home.

If youโ€™re interested in fostering or adopting DOBBY please send a message via social media or you may send an email to [email protected].

Thank you in advance!!

Look at that face! Beautiful NICKY is a mixed breed probably with some German Shepherd. He has a beautiful coat, a happy disposition, and loves all people. He is very focused on people - on walks he consistently looks to the person walking him for direction and likes to take breaks to get snuggles. He will quickly bond with his special human(s) and be easy to train. He gets along well with other dogs when properly introduced and when he knows them - then he loves to play. He has some energy in the kennel and greets people exuberantly. During a short term foster he did very well in the crate, had no accidents in the house, and knew "sit." He LOVES to snuggle and get belly rubs. He always wants to be near his people. He would make a great addition to any family. He is sick of being in the kennel and would love to find a home with people who would pet and snuggle him. Do you have room in your life for a sweet furry companion?

10/28/2024

Meet adorable Edna, a delicate 1yr old, 30lb hound mix who needs some time to get to know you. Once she trusts you, she is the most loving, cuddly and playful dog you will ever meet. Edna is a bit of a homebody and would do best with a calm and patient family who can provide her with a loving and secure environment. She is not the social kind of dog to take out and about.

Although she may need some extra time and patience, Edna has already learned basic commands and is great with other dogs. She is not possessive of food or treats which is helpful to continue with training.

We recommend a dog savvy adult home as he has no experience with children or cats.

If you have a soft spot for dogs who need an extra love and attention, Edna is the perfect companion for you. She may need a little bit more work in the beginning but she will reward you with a lifetime of love and devotion.

Don't you want to give Edna a chance?

๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸถHer name is BUNNY because she hops when she is excited. This sweet young (1 year) medium sized girl (40 pounds) is filled with happy energy. She loves everyone she meets - dogs and people (cats we aren't sure of). She was living as a stray but that hasn't stoped her from having an enthusiatic trust in people. She likes to lean up against you and get petted. She loves to play and loves her toys but she surrenders them easily when asked. Bunny could use some house and leash training. She is very motivated by treats and attention so we think she will be a quick learner. We think she would do well either with a doggie sibbling or as an only dog as long as she got plenty of play time with friends. She would do great with someone who likes to hikes or go out to events with their dog. What a great outgoing young pup to become your favorite companion!

LILO is a delightful, friendly, energetic cuddle bug. She is a wonderful companion. Want to go for a walk or hike? Lilo is game. Want to snuggle on the couch? Lilo does too! Want to go to a brewery and hang out? Lilo is up for it! Want to play fetch in the back yard? Lilo CERTAINLY wants to do that! She will be your best friend.

Lilo is 2 years old, a shepherd/ mountain cur mix who weighs 51 pounds. She is smart and we think will be easy to train, but also will need a close eye as apparently she likes to climb fences! She gets along well with other dogs and would do well with a doggie sibbling. She would like a fenced yard - but can't be left alone unattended because, yeah, that climbing thing. She loves to sniff and would do well with scent training or snuffle mats.

Smart, sweet, lively, cuddly, what more do you need in a pup? Come meet Lilo and fall in love!

He recently had some surgery he is recovering from but as soon as he is all better he will be back to his beagly ways, sniffiing, braying, exploring.

She would do well with a doggie buddy who can help her build her confidence. She is also OK with cats - just ignores them. Athena loves walks, is beautiful when runs (perhaps a bit of miniature greyhound?) and would make a great companion for an active person, or someone who enjoys running.

10/25/2024

CLYDE is a tiny but mightly little guy found wandering the streets of Anne Arundel county dirty and matted. The shelter took him in, got him cleaned up, and found an adorable Shih Tzu under all that matting. Clyde is now recovering from his ordeal with a devoted foster who is helping him learn that he is safe and can relax. Clyde is 4 years old and 15 pounds. He likes to be around a person he trusts, and develops trust pretty quickly - especially if you have treats. However he needs to get to know people on his own terms - he doesn't like people approaching him but prefers to do the approaching. Once he knows you, Clyde loves snuggling, rolling over, getting belly rubs, and sleeping in bed with his human.

Clyde seems to like other dogs but especially likes big ones. He walks easily on the leash and loves going for walks. He enjoys toys and treats and appreciates people who give him those things. At his fosters he loves to sit in the window seat and watch the world go by. He had quite an ordeal being lost for who knows how long, and deserves a home where he will get the peace and security he deserves.

He has shown separation anxiety at his foster's but is getting better as he has adjusted to her schedule. However he will need a patient person to help him get over that. He needs dog-experienced, adult-only adopter(s) who will work on training with him.

We will update as we get to know more about Clyde.
