Story
ADOPT ME ONLINE: https://ophrescue.org/dogs/14007Hi all! My name is Pontoon, but I answer to my nickname “Kona.” I just arrived to Maryland from a crowded shelter in South Carolina where OPH was kind enough to help me find my forever home! I just moved in last night, but my foster mom is already smitten with me. She calls me handsome and smart, and I love to talk to her when I’m excited! I already know how to sit and lay down, and go in my kennel with no issues while she’s sleeping or at work. I’m really interested in playing with her other dogs, but we haven’t formally met yet. They’re fluffy, but not as fluffy as me! My luscious locks are very interesting, it looks like I’m all white from the front, but when I turn around, you see my beautiful red! If you’re looking for a sweet, snuggly, floof ball, look no further, I’m right here and ready to meet you! This pet is expected to arrive at an Operation Paws for Homes Foster Home soon. If you are interested in adoption, please submit your application so that you may be pre-approved prior to arrival. All pets must be granted a Health Certificate in order to cross state lines and come to the rescue. Obtaining the health certificate is largely dependent on veterinary resources at the originating animal shelter so some pets may not arrive as planned.

Story
Kay will be 1 year old in January (29th). She was rehomed to us by a family who was not able to care for her in an apartment home with super busy schedule. They purchased her as a young puppy. We got her at 7 months old and have had her in puppy training at PetSmart. She is doing better with being house trained. She sleeps in her crate. She started her doggie period at 8 months old. She loves treats but doesn't love her dog food, which she takes a while to eat. We are on our second brand. We are looking for a home with open space and large yard for her to run and exercise. Hopefully with owners who aren't as busy or may work from home. Kay is energetic, playful, smart, stubborn, and loving.

These pups are in Washington, District of Columbia too!

Please contact Paul Slebzak (pauls@luckydoganimalrescue.org) for more information about this pet.gorgeous husky mix ISO love and central air! GLORIA NEEDS A FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME!!!! Name: Gloria     Best Guess for Breed:  Akita and shepherd mix Best Guess for Age:   6 years as of November 2024     Gender: Female Approximate Weight:   49 lbs Gets Along With: Other dogs! We haven't seen her with kids or cats but she can be tested Currently Living At: Lucky Dog's South Carolina rescue campus; needs a foster or forever home in the DC area to come up after completing heartworm treatment Special Adoption Considerations: Gloria is heartworm positive, but this Lucky Dog got extra lucky! This pup is part of a groundbreaking study we are conducting at our South Carolina Rescue Campus that has the potential to change the way shelters across the United States treat heartworm positive dogs.  All dogs in the study are placed at random in either the 2 shot or 3 shot protocol with strictly monitored protocols in place. Four weeks following their final injection, the pups are eligible to transport to the DC area for placement in foster or adoptive care.  After treatment concludes, we work with adopters to arrange a free follow up heartworm test after 6 months, followed by a second test at 9 months.  We are happy to discuss this treatment and which phase of the study this Lucky Dog is in right now! Just email the adoption coordinator - the address is at lower left! Gloria Is Looking For: Her forever home! She landed in the shelter through no fault of her own, and can't wait to once again have her own humans. She's eager for long sniffy walks and all the adventures her new family can dream up. Note her thick, dense coat. She has a preference for adventures in cool places - the mountains over the beach, Vermont or Montana, and oh yeah - Starbucks for pup cups. And quality kibble and and a cushy dog bed are on her wish list too. But you know what she wants most of all? To know where she belongs, to know who her people are, and to be safe and loved. In exchange, she offers her stockpile of adoring gazes and loyal companionship for all her days.  What My Foster Says About Me: We will update this once she has arrived in the DC area and spent some time with her foster 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 $475, which includes the cost of routine vetting, including vaccinations, spay/neuter, and heartworm treatment.  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.  Thank you for contacting Lucky Dog Animal Rescue and helping to save a life!
