Name:   Joyful          Best Guess for Breed:   Feist/Terrier mix    Best Guess for Age:   1 year as of 12/23/2024          SEX:    female   Approximate Weight:  17 lbs.   Gets Along With:    other dogs. Joyful hasn't been observed with kids or cats yet but we can test.   Currently Living at:   the shelter, Joyful needs a foster and a forever home.   Joyful is Looking For:   The warmth, love, and security that comes with having a forever home. Meeting new people at adoption events might be fun for a short time but at the end of the day every dog wants a place of their own. Whatever her past was like, Joyful wants to put it behind and start fresh in 2025.   Feist/Terriers are known for their keen hunting instincts, so she might love to chase after toys or small critters. At one-year old, Joyful is brimming with youthful energy and enthusiasm, always ready for an adventure or a playful romp. In addition to daily walks, Joyful will need time to run off-leash and play with other dogs.   Joyful's loyal and affectionate side will show itself as she forms strong bonds with her human family. Start training early so Joyful can learn what's expected of her and show you what a good girl she can be. Intelligent and eager to please, Joyful should be fun to train, although she might have a stubborn streak from her Terrier side of the family.

She be only one-year old but Sparkle looks like she knows some things. With her bright eyes and perky ears, Sparkle will find the way to your heart in no time. A one-year-old female Feist /Terrier mix is a delightful bundle of energy and charm. Alert and curious, Sparkle is far more than a lap dog. This girl will need time to run and play off-leash with other dogs, in addition to her daily walks. Socialization is crucial at this age. Interacting with different people, dogs, and environments will help her grow into a well-rounded adult dog. Her curious nature should make Sparkle a quick learner. You might find her nosing around for new scents or trying to figure out how to get that last piece of kibble out of her puzzle toy. Training is important to help Sparkle learn basic commands to keep her safe and make you a happy dog parent.

We do not provide a comprehensive medical exam before adoption. As a result, sickness, injury, and disability may exist unbeknownst to CDCK. City Dogs & City Kitties Rescue is not responsible for payment of any vet care, including known and unknown medical conditions once a cat or dog is adopted from us. Dog specific: Rabies, DHPP, Lepto and Bordetella vaccines. They are tested for HW, Lyme, Ehrlichia, Anaplasmosis.

Story
Meet Scout! This sweet boy was abandoned by someone in a Good Samaritan’s backyard — the family woke up one morning and found him there. So they took him in and started looking for his family to no avail, but they quickly discovered what a good boy he is. He has wonderful house manners, rides great in the car, and was an instant hit with their three dogs and kids. When no one responded to claim him, they contacted Worthy Dog for help. Scout has been in his foster home for almost two months now. On intake, we discovered he was heartworm positive, so he likely lived as an outside dog and had owners who did not protect him. Thankfully, that life is well behind him now. He’s done well in his foster home, living as part of a pack. He’s crate-trained and housetrained and has never had an accident in his foster home. He is a fun-loving, confident, active boy who loves everyone he meets and is a champion cuddler. His foster mom describes him as a love bug. ****** We checked in with his foster mom, Renee, for an update: “Scout is such a happy dog, full of energy, and very loving. He and Ryder got along great from the very beginning. They both love to run and chase squirrels in the yard. Scout will even run the fence and play with the neighbor’s dog. He is an active boy who would do well with a pack or as an only dog. A fenced yard would be the best fit for him as he loves to run. I harness him for walks, and he does better than with just his collar…less pulling. He still needs some work on his leash skills and is just excited to go and do! He’s only 22lbs, so very controllable. Scout has never met a stranger and is a very friendly pup. He’ll make a great family dog and is good around kids. He has met my grandkids many times. He loves his toys and will play fetch with the kids in the yard. He gets so excited when they visit, he will get the zoomies while playing and is pure joy. He may jump in excitement when he meets you, but we are working on a firm “no”, “down” and sit. He’s doing well with his commands. This sweet boy is very affectionate and loves to cuddle. The closer he is to me the happier he is. He will sit beside me and would love to sit in my lap always if I’d let him. He is crate-trained but needs a treat and encouragement to go in. I only crated him a few times and started leaving him out for short errands. I leave him out all the time now. I trust him and he’s had no issues in the house. He usually sleeps on the couch or watches for me at the front window. Overall he is a good boy with a lot of love and energy. He would do well with an active family that wants a dog who can join them in social activities. He’s very adaptable and just wants to be part of the mix.” ****** Scout has been treated for heartworm and is ready to start his new life. He needs a fun, active family and would LOVE a doggy playmate in his home. He’s confident enough to be an only dog but needs a family committed to his playtime and exercise.  Apply today!    BREED ESTIMATE: Feist/Terrier Mix GENDER: Male APPROXIMATE WEIGHT:  22 lbs  APPROXIMATE AGE: ~  5 years COAT TYPE: Short coat ADOPTION FEE: $425 OTHER INFO: utd on shots/neutered/microchipped - treated for heartworm LOCATION:  Alexandria, VA   FOR MORE INFO OR TO ADOPT: Please go to https://adopt.worthydog.org and complete the application. You can also help save dogs like this one by becoming a foster, providing a rescue dog with a temporary home and giving them the love and care they need until they are permanently adopted. Every person who fosters is directly responsible for saving the life of a dog, because we can only save as many dogs as we have foster families available to welcome them into their homes. If you think you might be interested in becoming a foster and want to learn more, please go to https://foster.worthydog.org and fill out an application. Worthy Dog Rescue is an all-volunteer, foster-based rescue that primarily adopts to families in the DC Metro area. November 3, 2024, 9:30 pm
