Chewbacca is the sweetest little nugget you'll ever meet who is always at your side snuggled up. He's a terrier though, so he can be feisty walking by other dogs on a leash but he's all bark and no bite. He adores his people and would do best in a home with children, another playful small dog and a family who is home often. He does mark inside on occasion but is housetrained most of the time. He is fostered ni Houston TX and will be transported upon adoption His fee is $850. FILL OUT AN APPLICATION IF INTERESTED AT: www.recycleddogsrescue.org/adoption-application

Story
  This darling boy is called Lil Deuce Coup and he's a lively boy that is currently being tormented by a 3 year old child.   HD us 8 years old and a Yorkie mix weighing 9 pounds.  Getting groomed this week and a full vet visit with bloodwork done and microchipped.   This guy has kept his cool since the baby was born but enough us enough. At one time he was potty trained but currently he is not.  You know the story.  Baby comes later after dog was raised as their 'baby' and then potty training goes out the window.  This is reversible and we have tips to change it.  Lil Coup deserves a long life of peace and tranquility!  Can you give test to him? Email Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrnewengland@gmail.com  asap       PLEASE NOTE:  Our dogs are transported from Tennessee to meeting places in the states where we have posted.  Further information about us is given on our Adopt-A-Pet site.  The adoption fees vary and will be provided as well as noted on the application you receive.  Contact us at 615-661-5333 or ccrnewengland@gmail.comJanuary 1, 2025, 9:03 pm

Story
Han Solo is the cutest little adventurer who would love to find his furever home. When he's not exploring new frontiers or fighting storm troopers, this sweet, cuddly boy is diligently working on potty, crate, and obedience training. Full of puppy energy and playfulness, Han would do well with an experienced adopter committed to continuing his training and giving him a safe, loving home. This dog's adoption fee is $500. ***Note that puppy adoption fees most often help generate revenue that goes towards older, special needs animals that need our help. Surgeries, heartworm treatment, boarding costs....all things that often result in adoptable dogs and cats being left behind to be euthanized. So adopting a puppy saves not just one life, but many! Puppies require an adopter who is home a good part of the day to continue their training - no exceptions! They are up-to-date on age appropriate vaccines and preventatives and will need to be spayed/neutered at the age of 6 months. Please note, this pup's immune system will not be fully functioning until about 16 weeks of age and therefore, s/he is not suited for Apartment/Condo living or Town homes without a private fenced yard and will not be able to go to public places where s/he could possibly be exposed to the germs of unvaccinated dogs, such as PetSmart/PetCo and dog parks until s/he is 16 weeks old. Freckles Foundation & Animal Rescue cannot guarantee the exact age or breed of any animal in our care. The age and breed listed are based on information we may have been provided, and the appearance of the animal.

ESTIMATE WEIGHT FULL GROWN: 4 lbs KNOWN WITH DOGS: Teddy is good with other dogs. But does not like if he is bothered by them for play or interaction.

Its the curse of having such a small bladder!! KNOWN LIKES: He likes hanging with people and dogs he knows and trusts!! Being a part of a pack seems to suit Teddy. KNOWN DISLIKES: He really does not like new people or new situations! He will bark and get a little nippy with new people if they interact with him too much, but is totally fine if you ignore him and just let him get used to him. He's Great once he gets to know you!!! ABOUT THIS ANIMAL: Teddy is looking for a home with a single person or couple that is ok with his quirks! He LOVES people once he gets to know them, and same with dogs! He will ride along with you, but bark at people passing by. The world is a scary place, and he needs a confident owner who is totally chill and nonchalant when Teddy thinks the world is ending! He loves to hang on your lap, and would be just fine with another canine companion big or small.

Story
Lewie is a sweet boy that was surrendered to us because the owner claimed to have allergies. He is about a year and a half old and weighs about 17 lbs. Lewie is a little shy at first but then just wants to be loved. He is neutered, UTD on required vaccines, HW tested negative and microchipped. He does seem to be housetrained. He is also a little shy around other dogs but would slowly warm up. He is not aggressive in any way but he is a little afraid at first. He just needs a safe secure loving home and family. Because of his initial shyness we will be looking for a home with no small children. If you would like to welcome this special guy into your family, please email omlc7@hotmail.com or dogs4mylife@gmail.com and we will send our info and application. IF YOU DO NOT SEE A RESPONSE, PLEASE CHECK YOUR SPAM FOLDER!

These pups are in Washington, District of Columbia too!

Meet Milo!!!  This special boy is a 4 1/2 year old, 11 lbs maltipoo.  He is the complete package.  This sweet boy is good with other dogs both big and small.  He is also good with cats.  Milo is an active little guy that has the best time running and playing with his foster brothers and sisters.  They all have the best time in their fenced in yard.  Milo really enjoys playing but he is also all about the most important thing--YOU!  Milo loves his foster mom.  If she sits down he is right there.  If she goes to the kitchen Milo is right behind her to see if he can help.  At bed time, you got it, trotting down the hall with you.  This great guy would be an excellent companion for a young single person or a great addition to a family with children 6 and older.  (to our knowledge he has not been around toddlers and we don't want to set him up for failure.)  Milo is so small that he could go everywhere with you that doggies are allowed even in the airplane on vacation!  This boy does not want to be left behind.  Milo is ready for a late new year celebration when he meets his forever family.  Hopefully that will be with you.  To be considered for Milo's frever family and to request an application please contact Vivienne at viviennejames@comcaast.net.  APPROVED APPLICATION AND ADOPTION FEE REQUIRED.  (Milo is currently in Tennessee and can be transported north upon adoption.)January 6, 2025, 2:04 pm

Male, 13 lbs, 7 months old. Buye is new to the rescue. We will add more information as we get to know the dog better. If you are interested in meeting a dog or cat, we require an adoption application.

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.
