Misty is a sweet little nugget. Although she is only 10lbs. her bestie is Jake. She loves to give kisses and is loyal and loving. She loves to sit on your lap. She does not like to be cold so will sleep under her blanket. Her previous owner says she and Jake are soul mates and her final request was that they stay together if possible. She is spayed, vaccinated, heartworm negative and microchipped. She and Jake are located in a foster home in Charlottesville Va.

Story
Meet Tanner! Tanner is a nine-month-old Chihuahua mix with a fun, spunky personality and just the right amount of attitude. At around 24 pounds, he’s a little bigger than a typical Chi but still has all the charm. He can be a bit jumpy with new people and unfamiliar noises, and he may bark at first, but once he figures you out, he’s happy to settle in and curl up in your lap. Treats help speed up the process—once he knows you have snacks, he’s much more willing to be friends. He’s crate trained, house trained, and does great when left alone, happily hanging out in a gated area when his people aren’t home. He loves to go for walks and enjoys meeting people and dogs along the way, though he can get excited and pull a little. His favorite thing in the world is playing fetch. He will chase a ball over and over again, but beyond that, he isn’t too interested in other toys. Tanner would do best in a home with someone who understands the independent yet affectionate nature of Chihuahuas. He has done well with small dogs and could likely live with a confident, easygoing dog who lets him warm up at his own pace. He hasn’t been tested with cats, and while he can be a bit uncertain around kids, he does well with those who approach him calmly and have treats to win him over. For someone who appreciates a dog with a little personality and a lot of love to give, Tanner will make a wonderful companion. He just needs the right person to help him feel safe and let his playful, affectionate side shine. At Green Dogs Unleashed (GDU), we are dedicated to ensuring the successful placement of our dogs in loving, permanent homes. Over the years, we have seen an increasing number of returns due to behavioral issues that could have been prevented with the right support. A significant percentage of these returns involve out-of-area clients or those who have not completed training with GDU. To address this, positive reinforcement training with Green Dogs Unleashed is required as a condition for all adoptions. Preference for this dog will be given to adopters who commit to signing up for and completing our six-week Canine 101 training class in person at our headquarters in Troy, VA. Secondary consideration will be given to a limited number of out-of-area adopters who agree to complete one private lesson with GDU, either in person or virtually, and attend a pre-approved positive reinforcement training class in their area. At the time you are seeing this post, this dog is still available for adoption. But please know that we may be working on multiple applications already, and any one of them could be approved at any time. Please READ THIS ENTIRE DESCRIPTION and complete an adoption application, if you are interested in any of our animals. Application at www.greendogsunleashed.org If you send an inquiry to ask if the dog is still available, or just tell us you are interested, your inquiry will not be answered. FILL OUT AN APPLICATION. We can do NOTHING without that. No, we cannot tell you if he would be a match for your family without seeing an application. PLEASE KEEP READING for info. */*/* PLEASE NOTE: The first communication you will receive after completing an application will be an email response, which will have instructions on how to proceed. Please check your inbox AND spam folders for the next 48 hours, for this email. We will not begin processing an application without the information requested in that email. */*/* We are happy to consider applicants from out of state on most dogs. Please read the description to see if this dog is an exception. If the applicant is approved to adopt, they MUST be willing to come to our location in Troy, VA, for a meet and greet. If all parties agree that the pup and family are a good fit, they would take the pup home at that time. For more information about our mission and for an APPLICATION for adoption, please go to www.greendogsunleashed.com. GDU does ask a minimum adoption fee of $400.00. This does not even come close to covering all expenses created by animals while in rescue. We are funded solely by the angels and volunteers willing to donate time and finances. This minimum fee includes DAPP, rabies if age appropriate,, heartworm test and preventative, if age appropriate, and flea and tick treatment, as well as neutering or spaying, if the animal is medically sound to undergo surgery. In an attempt to avoid tummy upset from a sudden change of food, the foster family may include a small, transitional bag of the food the dog/puppy has been eating. And if the dog/puppy has grown attached to a special item (like a toy or blanket), they may send that along, as well. */*/* Young puppies will receive age-appropriate vaccines, and will be spayed/neutered prior to adoption. Adopters may be required to provide additional puppy boosters and at 16 weeks of age, a rabies vaccine. Future annual vaccines, testing and monthly heartworm preventative are REQUIRED, and will be the financial responsibility of the adopter. *****Due to the sheer number of animals and applications in our program, coupled with a limited number of volunteers, applicants MUST have patience as we process applications.   If you do not hear back from us, the animal may have been adopted.   We strive to let people know but sadly cannot offer reasons for denial beyond that.  Any harassment of our volunteers will go unanswered and we will simply block you.   Our volunteers spend their time working hard to ensure the very best for each animal.   Please remember the animal, not the applicant, is our client.*****  ##2191070##

Story
Bookworm is a lively, attention-loving puppy with a big personality! He adores being the center of attention and will do just about anything to keep the spotlight on him. Whether he's showing off his zoomies, pouncing on his favorite toys, or playfully nudging you for belly rubs, Bookworm brings endless joy and energy wherever he goes. Despite his name, he's far more interested in playing than reading—but he’ll happily curl up beside you for a cozy nap after a long day of fun. With his charming antics and affectionate nature, Bookworm is sure to steal hearts wherever he goes!
