Story
Location: Scottsville, VAMy name is Roscoe. What's yours? I’m a happy, sweet guy and they say I’m a bulldog mix around 7-8 years of age. I love car rides, running, playing with toys and back scratches! I’m also crate trained, sleep through the night and know basic commands like sit and lie down! Do you like going on long walks? I love them! I love human companions, snuggling and kisses. I just wish I had a family of my own. Volunteers here at Finally Home love playing with me and taking me on hikes! Due to the fact that I wasn’t properly socialized as a younger dog, other animals scare and confuse me so I’m dog selective and need to be the only animal in the home. It’s not my fault but it’s held me back as I have been searching for my forever home for over a year. I hope that there is still the perfect person out there looking for a special dog like me to love! Roscoe is: *UTD on shots *Neutered *Current on flea and tick and heartworm medication.

Story
Attention all Bulldog lovers! This adorable Bulldog named Sweet Tart is in search of her forever home. She may be a bit bossy, but she's also housebroken and crate trained (although she's not a fan of the crate), she is also great for baths and getting her nails trimmed. One thing is she absolutely adores is food - she can't get enough of it! However, she would do best in a home without small children, and if there are other furry friends, she'll need to be fed separately. While she may not fully grasp the concept of playing with other dogs, she loves to snuggle up to them. Sweet Tart is known around the house for her slobbery kisses and will gladly climb onto your lap with her bulky body. With her stubborn and delightfully demanding bulldog personality, she's not afraid to bark and demand her meals when she thinks they're overdue. Her tongue is always hanging out, adding to her irresistibly cute appearance, especially when combined with her adorable underbite. And if that's not enough, she also comes with the bonus of mystery allergies-thanks to some Benadryl it is easily controlled. This sweet old gal has come a long way, and we're thrilled to see her find the loving home she deserves after all this time. If you are interested in adopting Sweet Tart, please fill out an application today!December 2, 2024, 4:26 pm

Story
Here runs Dolly, a furball of energy and affection! This little dynamo is always ready for a game of fetch, a playdate with her dog pals, or just an epic zoomie session through your house. If you're looking for a cuddle monster, she’s got you covered, too. Dolly believes in giving ALL the love to ALL the people. But don’t be fooled by her cuteness; this high-energy puppy needs a fenced-in yard to run wild and burn off some of that boundless energy. Perfect for an active family, Dolly’s always up for an adventure, whether it’s running, playing, or just showering you with affection. A yard, a family, and lots of love? Yep, that's Dolly's key to living her best life! Adopters have 30 days of free access to 1-on-1 text and email support from trainers at Petcademy to help make every pet's transition into their new home as smooth as possible.

Story
Say "hi" to your new best friend, Lulu! This snuggle queen is all about cuddles, belly rubs, and making new human and canine friends. Lulu’s motto? "Why walk when you can lounge?" She's an easy-going gal who enjoys lounging around and a good nap more than a rigorous workout, i.e.: she's more about the Netflix than the outdoor jog around the neighborhood. Lulu's got perfect manners and will greet you with a wagging tail and a sweet face, making her the ideal companion for a cozy home to share the couch with. Lulu gets along well with most dogs, but does need a little time to know them first, so she might do best in a home where she's the only dog getting all of your cuddles, or where her new canine "brother" or "sister" is easy-going and calm, and doesn't mind sharing. If you’re looking for a cuddle buddy and a low-key companion who likes car rides and snuggles, Lulu’s your girl. Adopters have 30 days of free access to 1-on-1 text and email support from trainers at Petcademy to help make every pet's transition into their new home as smooth as possible. All dogs available for adoption have been spayed/neutered, microchipped and are current on all vaccinations. Please email dogs@henricohumane.org for more information.

Kenzie is not at Sunny Bear Rescue but can be transferred here from the shelter he is in. Meet Kenzie: A Plea for Help! Kenzie is a sweet American Bulldog mix, approximately 3.5 years old, weighing between 45-50 pounds. He is blind, which makes him even more deserving and in need of a loving home where he can feel safe and cherished. Kenzie is an incredibly affectionate dog who craves attention and companionship. Currently, he’s in a shelter, and we urgently need someone to step up and help Kenzie live his best life. He is people and dog friendly, but to help him thrive, he will need a second dog in the home to guide and support him. With the assistance of Scott County Humane Society, we can get Kenzie out of the shelter and ensure he is up-to-date on all his vaccinations, neutered, and provided with everything he needs for his forever home. His adoption fee is low, making it easier for you to welcome him into your heart and home. Kenzie deserves a chance at happiness, and we believe that with your love and support, he can flourish. Please consider opening your heart and home to this amazing boy and give him the loving life he has always dreamed of!

Herbie is a lovable 70-pound Boxer mix with a heart full of gold. About a year old, he was found wandering the back roads of Tennessee without a collar or microchip, battling a tough case of mange. While no one has come forward to claim him, Herbie is now looking for his forever family! His skin is healing beautifully, and his sweet, curious nature shines through more each day. ‍&#226&#153&#130&#239&#184&#143 Herbie enjoys his daily walks and is getting better at leash manners. He’s also learning to curb his excitement when greeting people! He’s great with other dogs and, after playtime, is happy to sit quietly by your side. He hasn’t been tested with cats or kids yet, but we think his gentle personality would be a great match for the right home! Critter Cavalry Rescue is a Middle Tennessee-based 501(c)(3) that travels to the Northeast states weekly, helping high-risk homeless animals like Herbie find loving homes.
