💜🐶Meet CHONK🐶💜— a brindle beauty with a heart as big as his zoomies. 🐾💛 At just 2 years old, this sweet boy has already faced so much. Born with cataracts, Chonk spent his early life in darkness. Thanks to PAW, his eyes have been repaired and he’s now discovering a bright, beautiful world he never knew existed. ✨

He’s still a little shy meeting new people, but give him a little time and you’ll meet the goofy, snuggly, peanut-butter-loving lovebug he truly is. 🥜🐶 Chonk loves walks, yard time, and belly rubs. He’s housebroken, crate trained, and great with other dogs.

Will you be the one to show Chonk what it means to feel safe, loved, and home?

✨ Meet Presto! ✨
This sweet 2-year-old pup has long legs, perky ears, and the cutest heart-shaped nose. Found as an emaciated stray in Baltimore, he’s now a happy 20 lbs and ready for a fresh start in a loving home. 💜
Presto is a total lovebug—his foster calls him an angel! He’s a snuggler who enjoys tug-of-war, chewing on his toys, and watching the world go by from the window. He’s also super smart, knows basic commands, and is working on fetch.
🐾 Loves people (tail wags + ear scratches for everyone)
🐾 Gets along great with other dogs
🐾 House & crate trained
🐾 Big heart in a tiny frame
Presto would thrive in a home with plenty of walks, outdoor playtime, and maybe even a doggy sibling. After playtime, he’ll curl up next to you and drift into the sweetest little snooze. 💤
📍 PAW adopts in MD, VA & DC. Could Presto be your new best friend? Apply today at paw-rescue.org

💜🐾 Meet RIVER – a gentle soul with a heart full of love, just waiting to bloom in the right hands. 💜🐾

At just 2 years old, River has already faced more than his fair share of uncertainty. But thanks to the patience and love of his foster family, this 75-pound teddy bear is beginning to believe that the world isn’t such a scary place. 🌎💙

River is shy at first, especially in new situations — but once he trusts you, he’s pure magic. He’s sweet, loyal, and affectionate with people, children, and especially other dogs. 🐶 In fact, River needs a confident canine buddy in his forever home to continue growing — his foster brother has been his guide, showing him that it’s okay to be brave. 🐕

He’s working hard every day to build his confidence, and with a secure yard to run and play, plus continued love and support, River is going to shine. 🌟 He's on daily anxiety meds to help him feel safe — and with your help, he'll learn that he doesn't have to be afraid anymore.

River isn’t just looking for a home. He’s looking for a heart. 💔➡️💖
He’s a work of art still unfolding — and you could be the final, beautiful brushstroke.

🏡 Will you be the one to show River what it means to be truly loved?

📩 Apply to adopt or foster River today through the link in his bio or DM us with any questions!

✨ Meet Huck (aka Huckleberry Hound) ✨
At about 8 years old and 60 pounds, Huck is the definition of a good boy. This gentle senior hound is goofy, sweet, and happiest when he’s by your side.
Huck spends most of his day snoozing peacefully, but the moment you say walk, his tail starts wagging and his nose goes to work—sniffing every little joy the world has to offer. He walks beautifully on leash (unless a cheeky squirrel dares cross his path 🐿️) and greets life with pure enthusiasm.
In the home, Huck is easy as can be:
🏡 House-trained and respectful
🛏️ Loves his cozy bed (no furniture climbing for this gentleman)
🕰️ Puts himself to bed in his crate each night
💜 Lives for belly rubs, ear scratches, and quiet companionship
Huck isn’t asking for much—just a loving person or family who will give him walks, gentle guidance, and affection. In return, he’ll give you unwavering loyalty, endless tail wags, and the comfort only a senior dog’s love can bring.
This sweet boy deserves a forever home where he can feel safe, loved, and cherished in his golden years. 🌟 Could that be with you?
📍 PAW adopts to DC, MD, northern VA, and southern PA.

🐾 Meet Timmy! 🐾

This 2-year-old, 67lb cutie has already stolen our hearts—and he’ll charm you too! DNA says he’s a mix of Greater Swiss Mountain Dog, Bernese Mountain Dog, and Miniature Poodle, which makes him one-of-a-kind.

Timmy is a bouncy, playful guy who loves walks, belly rubs, and rolling in the grass. He’s super people-focused and is looking for a home where he’ll get plenty of attention, training, and love. A fenced yard would make him *so* happy!

✨ What Timmy brings to the table:
✔️ Knows “sit” & “down” (working on “wait” & “stay”)
✔️ Smart, treat-motivated, and eager to learn
✔️ Rides well in the car & loves adventures
✔️ Enjoys playtime but also settles with a chew toy at your feet

Timmy would thrive in a calm home with experienced dog parents. No little kids, and we’re still learning how he feels about doggy siblings—but he may enjoy a playmate with guidance.

If you’re ready for a loyal, goofy, lovable companion—Timmy’s ready to meet you! 🐶💙

👀 Think you’re seeing Bert again? Nope—meet Ernie!
This 2-year-old, 12-pound pocket pup is the ultimate snuggle bug. Perky, playful, and always happy, Ernie loves walks, playtime, sniffing around, and then curling up right in your lap. 💕
Ernie came in with his buddy Bert, and while they’re two peas in a pod, they’re not bonded—so Ernie can be adopted solo, with Bert, or with another doggie friend. 🐾
In foster care, Ernie is learning house training, does well on leash, rides nicely in the car, and would happily share your bed if you let him. He’s affectionate, people-loving, and very treat motivated. 🍪
If you’re looking for a best friend who will love you more than anything, Ernie is your guy! Apply today at paw-rescue.org this sweet boy won’t be available for long!

✨ Meet Bert! ✨
This perky little poodle mix is pure joy in a 13-pound package. At 5 years old, Bert is sweet, mellow, and happiest when he’s right by your side for snuggles. He loves his walks, rides well in the car, and is always ready for an adventure—or a cozy nap with you. 🐾
Bert came to us as a stray with his buddy Ernie. They’re two peas in a pod, but not bonded—so he can be adopted solo, together with Ernie, or even with another furry sibling. 🐶❤️
Currently in foster care, Bert is doing well with house training, walks beautifully on leash, and is very treat motivated (who isn’t?!).
This affectionate little guy won’t be with us for long—apply to adopt today and make Bert part of your family! 💕 paw-rescue.org

✨ Meet Lassie! ✨
Energetic, lovable, and oh-so-smart, this 35lb cutie is the total package. With her sweet black spots, happy tail wags, and love for treats, she’s both adorable and easy to train! 🐾

✅ Crate- & house-trained
✅ Loves people & playtime
✅ Funny, smart, and full of love
Lassie is currently seeking a long-term foster or forever family in MD, VA, or DC. Could she be your adventure buddy and cuddle companion?
