If you are looking for a companion and walking buddy, then you're in luck. Weasel loves to go on long walks a few times a day, no matter the weather. He also likes making doggy friends along the way, but will tend to be more cautious with humans. Weasel's ideal home would be a quieter one, with few people and a regular routine. He will bond to his chosen person and once you're his, you're his forever. He is crate trained and also has learned to sit for treats. If you give Weasel a chance, he will reward you with a lifetime of love and loyalty. Submit an application today and meet your new best friend!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.

Story
Winifred or Winnie is a sweet girl that was surrendered when her owner could no longer care for her.  Winnie would do well in a home as a single dog or with one that is calmer and not high energy or in her face.  She would also do well with older children as she loves her people and to be part of a family.  She loves to take treats from your hand, snuggle in your lap, and does fantastic on car rides.  She is working on her routine and potty training so she will require a family that will get her into a schedule and work on her this with her. PLEASE READ: If you are interested in meeting and/or adopting, please apply online at www.catdogfriendrescue.com. Please do NOT call or send inquiries via Adopt A Pet or PetFinder as we are a small rescue and cannot handle a large influx of inquiries and phone calls. You can email us at acatsfriendinc@gmail.com if you have questions, but if you would like to be considered for adoption, you must fill out an application. Please note if you are applying for a kitten under six months of age, you must have another friendly kitty in the home or adopt another kitten. Additionally, unless otherwise indicted that this animal is a purebred, all of our animals are rescues and the "breed" selection is a best guess based on their apperance as we have no way of knowing their specific breeds.  Out of state adoptions (outside Virginia/DC/Maryland) do require three years of excellent past or current veterinary references. We look forward to hearing from you!  Adoption Fee includes spay/neuter and microchip insertion. ##2265074##

Story

Learn more, see our list of dogs needing foster, and apply, https://www.citydogsrescuedc.org/foster-a-city-dog.html City Dogs & City Kitties Rescue is a foster-based rescue in Washington, DC. We do not have a shelter. CDCK has a thorough adoption process to find the best possible fit for each of our dogs and cats (we do not operate under a first-come, first-served model). Upon accepting a new cat or dog into the organization, we provide a basic vet visit that includes necessary vaccinations, disease screenings, deworming, microchips, and spay/neuter for dogs six months and older. 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. Most cats and dogs will have a house-training accident in the initial days in their new home and we cannot guarantee any pet is housebroken or crate trained.

Story
Please contact Nancy Logan (nancyl@luckydoganimalrescue.org) for more information about this pet.young boy seeking fresh start and love! NETTI NEEDS A FOREVER HOME!!!!   Come meet Netti and other great adoptable dogs this Sunday (02/02) from 12-3 pm at the PetSmart in Alexandria, VA (3351 Richmond Highway, Alexandria, VA 22305)!   Name: Netti      Best Guess for Breed:  Boston terrier mix Best Guess for Age:  1 year as of January 2025          SEX:  male   Approximate Weight: Around 20 lbs; updated weight coming soon!   Gets Along With:   Netti does well with other dogs. He is currently living with his foster's cat and doing great. He hasn't been seen with kids but can be tested if you have them.    Currently Living at: DC area foster home   Special adoption considerations:   Netti was reserved and unsure when he arrived into the shelter. He has been making great strides, though! We think Netti would do best in a home that either has a resident dog or who can make sure he has lots of opportunities to go on walks regularly with other dogs or visit dog parks and/or doggie daycare with other dogs to build confidence.    Netti is Looking For:   Before we get into what Netti is looking for - LOOK at him! Have you ever seen a dog that looks like a scruffy Boston Terrier before? What a cutie.    This cutie is young, just about a year old, and hasn't seen nearly enough of the world yet. He's eager to burn off all that awesome young-dog energy with his new humans. Sniffy walks, romps in parks, all the adventures his humans can dream up - yes, please! And quality kibble and a cushy dog bed and treatos too. But you know what he wants most of all? To know he's safe and loved and under his own roof.    In exchange, he offers all the love and adoring gazes and tail wags he's stockpiling in his little body, and loyal companionship for all his days. What do you say? Is he the one for your home and your heart? What My Foster Says About Me: 'Netti is very sweet and has been incredibly well behaved. I likes being part of the family and loves hanging out with us in the living room, crawling into our laps seeking full body cuddles and hugs. He's been super sweet and loves giving me a couple of kisses. He loves playing with his toys and gets along great with my dogs.  He sleeps quietly in his crate.  He does great with my cat just walking up to her and sniffing her. I think he wanted to play but my cat let it be known that she did not want to play so he doesn't bother with her. He's very responsive to correction. He is an easy foster and a very good little boy.' Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken.  All of our dogs are working on their crate training.  TO ADOPT:      The adoption fee for this dog is $460, which includes the cost of routine vetting, including vaccinations and spay/neuter. If you are interested in adopting, please complete the Adoption Questionnaire online   at   bit.ly/adoptaluckydog  .   Lucky Dog Animal Rescue does our best to provide accurate information about the dogs we have for adoption. That said, we cannot make any guarantees about age, breed or temperament.
