Story
Kodak is looking for their forever home! WHAT MY FOSTER SAYS: Kodak (Koko for short) is quick to steal your heart with his puppy eyes. He is a dog who loves the company of people for an overdose of pets and belly rubs, and will seemingly begin to melt into your hands when you're giving them to him. When it's time for some activity, Kodak loves a good walk. He especially loves to keep his nose to the ground to explore, and would love either a backyard or someone who will take him on long walks to take in all the smells. He seems completely potty trained as far as his foster can tell, and has not had any accidents in the house or his crate. Kodak is an easy going guy, he is happy to hang around by himself but will get up to show you how excited he is to see you! He loves a good sniffari adventure and will wait politely by the door until you are ready to leave! On days when you can't be giving him attention, Kodak has done well in his crate and loves a good nap on a soft bed. Kodak can get a little nervous around other dogs, and needs a slow introduction when meeting them. However, he is doing well with the resident dog at his foster home now that they've become accustomed to each other, and they even play the occasional game of tug-of-war with some toys. He's great with meeting new humans too, but we are working on him not jumping since he's just so excited to meet new people, and he also can pull on his leash when he's excited about his walk. Koko would add a ton of love and happiness to any family looking for a furry friend, so reach out to meet Koko today! ATTRIBUTES: Kodak has done well in foster with other dogs but requires a slow introduction with dogs. -------------- Laila's Legacy Animal Rescue does not guarantee that any dog is housebroken nor crate trained.

Story
Hachi may not have been treated kindly in his life. Let’s change that. He was a bit timid coming out of his kennel but after a few kind words, he was ready to go! He wasn’t bothered by dogs we walked by and went potty right away once outside. He is a calm guy and was easy to walk on a leash. He was just happy to be outside and stretch his legs. Hachi liked treats and took them gently. He enjoyed some pets and affection, putting both paws on my chest for some closer love. He gave the sweetest kisses also. I can’t wait to see more of his personality come out! Hachi is a real sweetie! He was quiet in his kennel and shy, but not fearful.Easy to leash, Hachi willingly follows your lead and is easy to walk.As a Dogo Argentino, Hachi will benefit from an affectionate adopter who includes him daily activities and family routines.Hachi has a gentle disposition and easy manner.Please come and meet Hachi. He’s a great dog who needs a loving family to help him blossom!Hachi is available to all adopters.Animal Services Division3750 Brown Station Rd.Upper Marboro MD301–720–7800Watch my reel: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DDk56afS2Dp/?igsh=MWRianBwcTk5b2V1bg==

Story
I got Ace from a breeder in Silver Spring last year in August. He’s a purebred dogo argentino but is deaf. Hes a very sweet dog who has a lot of energy with other dogs but is kind and loving. Ace is a year and a half and definitely still has puppy energy. He will need someone who is willing to put in the time to work with him in his new home. He’s very smart and can learn quick. I would keep him myself, but unfortunately not longer have the funds to keep him and properly train him

Story
We adopted Kilo from a friend in California; he was a rescue pup in really poor condition when we first got him. Over time, he began to gain weight and grow more comfortable with us. Initially, he was scared, but as we settled into Virginia, he still seemed uncertain around us for a while. Now, he's full of energy and very playful. We never knew his exact birthday, so we decided to celebrate it on October 11, 2023, the day we brought him home. I would love to find him a new home where he can receive the attention and care he deserves.

Story
Mocha is a year and eight months old. She was born on 3/3/2023. We acquired her from someone who had her parents and was looking to rehome some of the puppies before taking them to a shelter. Unfortunately, soon after adopting her, my mother fell ill with cancer and I became pregnant. I didn't get to spend as much time as I would have liked working on training her, however during the few months prior to my pregnancy, we did manage to teach her quite a bit. She's a bit reactive towards other dogs, so I'd prefer she go to a home with an experienced owner who can handle strong dogs. She gets along great with other dogs her size that like to play rough. Ideally I think she'd do great in a home with a big yard where she can get lots of exercise.

Story
Seeking a good home for our Dogo Argentino. Wonderful dog. All heart. House trained. Loves cats and fellow dogs. Female. 3 years old. Fixed. Sadly, she is deaf. No papers. Loves to run and take long walks. Extremely loving. Leash trained and socialized. Can be taken off leash and allowed to run. She never leaves her owner behind. Well trained but like all Dogos she can be stubborn at times. Requires someone who understands the breed. Lots of energy with a happy go lucky disposition. Full of joy!!! I've taken a new position and she is not getting all the love and attention she deserves. We simply want to ensure she finds a good safe loving forever home.

These pups are in Washington, District of Columbia too!

Story
Herbie is a lovable 70-pound Boxer mix with a heart full of gold. About a year old, he was found wandering the back roads of Tennessee without a collar or microchip, battling a tough case of mange. While no one has come forward to claim him, Herbie is now looking for his forever family! His skin is healing beautifully, and his sweet, curious nature shines through more each day. ‍&#226&#153&#130&#239&#184&#143 Herbie enjoys his daily walks and is getting better at leash manners. He’s also learning to curb his excitement when greeting people! He’s great with other dogs and, after playtime, is happy to sit quietly by your side. He hasn’t been tested with cats or kids yet, but we think his gentle personality would be a great match for the right home! Critter Cavalry Rescue is a Middle Tennessee-based 501(c)(3) that travels to the Northeast states weekly, helping high-risk homeless animals like Herbie find loving homes. For more info on our mission, adoption fees, and drop-off points, visit us at CritterCavalry.com! &#226&#156&#168 Could your family be the one Herbie's been waiting for? &#226&#157&#164&#239&#184&#143 Email us at ccrnewengland@gmail.com to request an adoption application.  PLEASE NOTE:   Our dogs and cats are fostered in Tennessee and can transport weekly up to the Northeast region.  Request an application and learn more about Critter Cavalry at https://www.crittercavalry.com/adoption.November 11, 2024, 7:28 pm

Story
Stella is looking for their forever home! WHAT MY FOSTER SAYS: Stella is one of the most low maintenance fosters I've ever had the pleasure of helping find a forever home. From being a shy, scared, and timid girl to being confident, secure, and well-mannered, Stella has grown so much in the 2+ years I've known her; although the vacuum cleaner is still enemy #1. Stella has lived in all types of settings: in a busy city, in an apartment, on a quiet street, with dogs, with reactive dogs, and easily adapted to her home environment. She is crate trained and LOVES having a bed in her crate to curl up into a donut while you're at work. She knows every basic command like sit, down, touch, stay and is fully potty trained. Stella's favorite toy is a lambie, or something else that is tiny that she can carry around in her mouth. Once, she took care of an egg for 6 hours before it broke, she's the most gentle creature. Stella is made of love and French fries. There's nothing more that she wants than to be inside with her people, cuddled up on the couch with a show, or playing sous chef in a calm kitchen. She takes awhile to warm up to her people, but with some french fires (her favorite is Burger King), some space, and a bit of patience, she'll love you unconditionally and will likely knock you over from wagging her tail and wiggling so hard with excitement every time she sees you. Although Stella is a perfect girl in the home, on leash, and with other dogs, she is scared of human strangers, especially masculine presenting people, and will need a strong advocate to help keep her safe. If you're looking for a great addition to your calm and cozy life with unconditional love to give, Stella is the gal for you. Stella would do best living with queer folks, a home without cis-gendered men, without cats, and without small children. ATTRIBUTES: Stella has lived in foster with other dogs, but can not go to a home with kids, cats, or cis-gendered men. -------------- Laila's Legacy Animal Rescue does not guarantee that any dog is housebroken nor crate trained.
