My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

You are getting very sleepy...

Your eyes are growing heavy as you stare into my deep, soulful brown eyes. You feel your hand reaching for the treats without even realizing it. Good. Now, listen closely: you want to adopt me. You need to adopt me.

Hi, I’m Josh, the 72-pound master of hypnosis and professional heart-stealer. I was saved at the last minute by a foster hero, and now I’m here to work my charms on you. Look into my eyes... deeper... perfect. Now let me tell you about my irresistible self.

I’m sweet, bubbly, and affectionate—a total big baby who’s absolutely obsessed with love and pets. I’ll never tire of them, and neither will you. Picture this: I plop down with my back to you, tilt my head all the way back, and give you the ultimate upside-down puppy-dog stare. Game over—you’re smitten.

My hobbies include playing fetch, zooming around the yard with my butt tucked like a pro sprinter, and greeting you with an epic wiggly butt dance. Oh, and sleeping through the night like the perfect angel I am. (But don’t be surprised if I give you a morning “huff” to remind you it’s snuggle o’clock.)

When it’s mealtime, I’m all wagging tail and sparkling eyes. I love food and treats, but don’t worry—I’m polite about it. I won’t jump on you, though I might hypnotize you into giving me seconds.

I’m a smarty-pants, too. I know commands, and I even have a built-in GPS to find my foster Nana when needed. I’d do best with older kids because, well, sometimes my excitement is bigger than my coordination.

I’m learning how to tone down my enthusiasm when meeting new dog friends. My favorite toys? Stuffed ones, of course—though I treat them with the utmost respect (no stuffing explosions here).

So, let’s cut to the chase. You’ve already fallen for me, haven’t you? That’s the power of Josh. Don’t resist it—email adopt@aaha-rescue.org right now before I hypnotize someone else!

We are a rescue that is dependent on volunteers as we do not have a physical building. We rent space at a kennel in Upperco, Md. If you would like to meet one of our dogs please contact us to make arrangements. Thanks!

More about this rescue

Adopt a Homeless Animal Rescue (AAHA) is a nonprofit dedicated to rescuing and assisting animals in crisis. We actively combat animal cruelty in any form.

We have a particular commitment to pit bulls and aim to raise awareness about the breed, help those in need, and educate the public:
•We seek to promote this lovely yet unfairly maligned breed as the sweet, intelligent, affectionate, and people-oriented dogs they are.
•We assume stewardship over their well-being and strive to make this world a better place for them.
•We serve as a resource and/or liaison for shelters, individuals, and the community at large, advocating for any animal in harm's way.
•We also function in an advisory role for private citizens who seek assistance and guidance in better caring for their pets.

We are a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.

Please help us help the animals!
