Story
Dobby is a big goofball who just loves people!   He is a volunteer favorite - to meet him is to love him.  This guy is sweet and friendly to everyone, kids included. He wants to give kisses to every person he meets, and be snuggled close to you at home.  Dobby is SO EASY in the home!  He is polite, housebroken, and knows a ton of commands.  He will relax most of the day and is accustomed to being in a crate.  When you come to let him out he smiles and wags his tail.  As an "older" fella he does not need a ton of exercise and is happy to get walked.  He’s 5 years old and 69 pounds of affection (and maybe could stand to shed a few more). We suspect he is a Great Dane / terrier mix.    Dobby enjoys playing. He especially loves tug of war and fetch - he'll bring the toy back to you and expect you to tug on it for a couple of seconds, but once you tell him "Leave it" he’ll let go and start the game again. When playtime is over he has no problem calming down. He is very treat motivated and will do anything for a treat, but he has no food aggression, so he will take any size treat from your hand gently.  He would love to sleep at the foot of your bed but he's perfectly happy in his own bed, especially if it’s placed in front of a door or window.  He can be dog selective so he is better as an only dog. PAW will support any adopter with some training to ensure Dobby gets off to a good start in their home. PAW places animals in the Washington, DC/Baltimore Metropolitan area only. ##1127125##

Story
If you are interested in adopting this dog,  please fill out an Adoption Questionnaire at  https://petstablished.com/adoption_form/43315/generic.  You can learn about the adoption process by visiting: http://www.k-9lifesavers.org/howtoadopt/.  Dog's Name:   Bogie  (BOG0523OWSMN)Estimated Breed:   Pointer / Great Dane MIXApproximate Age:   7 yearsApproximate Weight:  94 lbsCurrently Living at:   BoardingAdoption Fee:   $400DOG'S DESCRIPTION:  Bogie was adopted from us as a puppy. His owner had to move and could not take him with her. He lived a lot of his life in Florida but is now back in the DMV. Bogie can by quite the character! He loves toys and people but would prefer to be your one and only. Meaning, he wants to be your only furry friend. Bogie will keep you lauging with his antics and would love for you to be his forever home. Bogie is very large and would do best with someone who is familiar with his breed or large breeds. Please consider bringing Bogie into your home!Given his size and energy level, we reccomend a home without small children. A nice yard is a must. This will provide him with the space he needs to romp and play to his heart's content. Bogey needs to learn boundaries and personal space with other dogs and he would really benefit from a home that can provide him with training and guidance in socializing with his canine friends.Bogey's affectionate nature and goofball personality makes him a wonderful potential family member for the right household. It's clear that he just needs someone who understands his needs and breed, and is willing to provide the necessary guidance and training to ensure he thrives in a new home. If someone is willing to give him a chance, they will be rewarded with a loyal and entertaining companion.Your new pet will require a refresher in house-training. K-9 Lifesavers strongly recommends all new adopters enroll their new pet into obedience training. This provides for an easier transition into a new home, ensures the dog remains well socialized, and helps form a bond between the dog and the new family.    Adoption fees cover basic vetting, rabies (if puppy is old enough), distemper/parvo vaccinations, deworming, monthly heartworm prevention while in our care (if old enough), monthly flea/tick prevention while in our care, and transport costs. K-9 Lifesavers will also cover the cost of spay/neuter at our partner vet at 6 months of age or reimburse adopter for up to the amount of our partner vet cost should you choose to spay/neuter at your own vet.       Foster Program:    Foster homes provide for the temporary care of a rescue until the dog is placed into a loving, forever home.  For more information on becoming a foster parent, and our Foster Program, visit http://www.k-9lifesavers.org/foster/ or email our Foster Coordinator at foster@k-9lifesavers.orgSPONSOR ME! Help Save Lives!    Make a tax-deductible donation today and help save a life. Donations help us offset boarding costs and additional medical treatment for those dogs who need it.  K-9 Lifesavers receives NO federal funding and survive with your generous support! We are all volunteer based organization so every cent from your donation goes directly to the dogs in our care. Visit: http://www.k-9lifesavers.org/donate/For more information on K-9 Lifesavers, or to view a complete listing of all our Adoptable Dogs, visit our website at www.k-9lifesavers.org.Please “like” our  Facebook Page for the most current events and new dogs.Thank you for considering a rescue dog! ##1878774##

Story
Hi there! I’m Ray! I’m a 2-year-old handsome fella, and I’m a Great Dane and German Shepherd mix. Yep, I’m big — like, extra-large big — at a solid 109 pounds! But don’t let my size fool you. I’m a big ol’ softie at heart, with a lot of love to give. I’ve got a gorgeous gray/black merle coat that turns heads wherever I go. I’m kind of a showstopper, if you ask me! I ended up here because my previous owner had to make some tough decisions due to life changes, and unfortunately, that meant I needed a new home. I’m originally from South Carolina, where I spent my first couple of years getting the hang of life. I’m all caught up on my health stuff — I’m heartworm negative, I’m already neutered, and I’ve had my recent rabiesvaccination. I’m still a young pup, so I’ve got plenty of energy to enjoy walks, playtime, and cuddle sessions.I might be big, but I’ve got a sweet and gentle demeanor that makes me the perfect companion for a family who can handle my size (and my big heart). I’m also a big goofball, and I absolutely love playing with other dogs—male or female. I’m the life of the playgroup, and I’ll happily join in on any game. I don’t quite realize just how big I am, though. I think I’m 20 pounds! So when I’m playing with other dogs or toys, I can get a little goofy and clumsy (but that’s just part of my charm!). And you know what else I love?! Music!! All kinds of music. Maybe you can teach me to dance!! Some of the volunteers who walk me tell me I’m their favorite because I’m just so goofy. I’m a sweet boy who loves people, including kids, and I get along great with everyone I meet. I’m definitely a people dog and just want to be with you, whether it’s playing, walking, or just hanging out. Now when it comes to cats....things don't always go so well. I think they’re just like the other dogs, so I try to play with them, but they don’t seem to like it much (oops!). No aggressive tendencies, though—I just want to play! I’m looking for a home where I can stretch my long legs, get lots of attention, and become a part of a new family who’ll love me as much as I’ll love them. So, if you’re looking for a loving, goofy, and good-natured buddy who’s always ready to stand by your side, then I’m your guy. I promise I’ll fill your life with joy, and you’ll get lots of sloppy, big-dog hugs. Come meet me — I’m waiting for my forever home! ##2230413##

This sweet dog is an owner surrender. The current family could not afford to keep him and found it difficult to feed him. We naturally offered to help but they were also having to move which new home would not allow dogs. Especially a big one! Opie is an easy dog, very sweet . He is a mix of lab and Dane. He is happy in nature and will be a great dog for any family. RPACI is a non profit rescue, and currently possess our 501C3 to operate as such.
