Story
Meet Redd, a spirited little guy who’s ready to find his forever home! At 14 years young, Redd was surrendered by his former family but was fortunate enough to be welcomed into a loving foster home with COALDR just an hour later. This delightful pup has more spunk and energy than many dogs half his age! Each morning, he bounds outside with enthusiasm, eager to explore his yard and greet his doggy friends. Weighing in at just 11 pounds, Redd is a charming Poodle/Maltese mix and is currently fostered in Smithfield, VA. Redd has a cataract in one eye and is likely blind in that eye. His other eye has age-related vision loss, but he can see shadows and navigates his environment quite well. Redd is house-trained but prefers to use pads overnight. He’s had a thorough medical check-up and is in excellent health. This lovable boy gets along great with everyone, so a home with older, respectful children would be ideal. Because of his limited sight, he may not be comfortable around very young kids. Redd loves mealtime and isn’t shy about expressing his impatience if he has to wait. Aside from that, he’s quite a calm pup who would do well in an apartment setting. Redd enjoys leisurely walks and loves spending time outside, exploring his yard. He’s great with other dogs and adores every person he meets. If you’re ready to give this fun-loving little fellow a cozy retirement home, please complete an application to adopt him!

Story
Meet Callie, a laid-back sweetheart with a heart full of love! Rescued from a shelter where she was brought in as a stray, Callie is estimated to be around 10 years old. She’s spayed, up to date on vaccinations, microchipped, and on preventative care, and she recently had a dental cleaning. Although Callie is completely blind, she navigates her surroundings with amazing confidence, easily getting around her foster home and keeping up with her furry siblings. She’s very food motivated, so her foster mom feeds her separately to keep her from snacking on everyone else’s meals. Given the chance, Callie will definitely explore the trash, so keeping things out of reach is a must! Callie is mostly housebroken if taken out frequently and is fantastic about standing still for her harness. She walks beautifully on a leash, and while she will use pee pads indoors, she may occasionally “mark,” which we hope will improve now that she’s been spayed. Don’t let her age fool you—this sweet girl has a playful spirit and absolutely loves her squeaky toys! Currently located in Wheelersburg, Ohio, Callie is ready to find her forever home. If you’d like to welcome this sweet girl into your home, please apply today!

Story
Can anyone resist this guy?? Meet Butter, a charming 16-pound piebald dachshund with a stunning coat of white, black, and tan. At around 4 years old, Butter is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped & on preventative. He recently had a dental cleaning. His silky-soft fur is simply irresistible! Butter loves to snuggle and is happiest when he can curl up across your lap for a cozy nap. He adores his people and follows them from room to room, showing just how much he enjoys being close. When left alone, he can get a bit upset but will settle down. He is crate trained. Butter is also a great car companion. Walking around the neighborhood is one of Butter’s favorite activities. He thrives when he can join a group of dogs, sniffing around and watching squirrels. He is prey driven & will chase after things so he MUST be kept on leash at all times or in a secure fenced in yard when off leash. Due to a sensitive stomach, Butter eats only Hill's Prescription Diet I/D small bites in chicken flavor. He loves his food & has no trouble finishing his meals. Butter does see the resident cats and barks at them. He seems a little too interested in them so we are working on this!! He is a total love bag & will make someone or a family a great addition. Please apply for Butter at coaldr.org if you are interested in adopting him. His fee is $500

Story
Hello! My name is Boone, and I am the goodest boy! The foster lady calls me “King of Chaos”, whatever that means, because I like to chew stuff. But I’m a puppy so what do you expect? I’m looking for someone other than this lady to give me a home so I can have stuff to destroy as much as I want. Oh, and a fenced yard to play in, and another active canine friend would be awesomeness, too! If you have all those cool things, I’d love to be your goodest boy forever and ever and always. Boone is neutered and up to date on vaccinations and ready to find his forever home! Boone is fostered in Smithfield, VA.

Story
Rocky is an adorable, silly and sweet adult pup. We are unsure of his exact age, but the vet seems to believe he is about 9 years old and weighs about 12 pounds. Rocky would do best with a dog savvy, active family with no young children. He's 100% potty trained, loves to take walks in the neighborhood and going for rides in the car. He gets along great with other small dogs but is indifferent to playing with them. We are unsure about his compatibility with larger dogs or cats. Toys and balls are Rocky's favorite and he keeps himself well occupied with them. However, he can get a little possessive and will guard objects if you try to take them from him. Caution needs to be taken with Rocky when needing to remove a particular possession from him, but he will gladly be distracted by a replacement item. Rocky loves to sleep in bed with his people and gets so excited at bedtime and in the morning that he rolls around kicking wildly. He just loves life and is one happy little boy! Rocky would do best in a home with a fenced in yard and where his family is home more often than not, but if his family are active and committed to taking him on regular leashed walks, a fenced yard is negotiable. Rocky will also require regular visits to the groomer and it is recommended he is muzzled when strangers are handling him. However, he absolutely loves being brushed at home and spins in circles when he sees the brush come out. Rocky is neutered, up to date on vaccines, microchipped & on preventative. He is located in Greenville, South Carolina. If Rocky sounds like a good match for you, please complete an adoption application today at www.coaldr.org

Story
Big Papi has a big personality in a tiny body! He came from a busy, high-kill shelter in GA. Not sure how this cutie ended up on death's row because he is one fabulous pup. Papi is 8lb of adorableness. He is about 8 years old and is his foster Mom's constant shadow. Papi wants to play with his foster brother & sister (although they are not interested) & loves his zoomies around the yard. He also loves snacks, cuddling on the couch watching TV, neighborhood walks and riding in the car. Papi does get nervous in new situations but warms up to strangers quickly. He'd do best in a home with no small children due to his size. Currently being fostered in SC but transport is available to adopters on the east coast.
