Story
Meet Blue Boy – Your Loyal, Gentle Companion! Hi, I’m Blue Boy! I’m a sweet, friendly guy who loves cuddles, car rides, and soaking up the sun with my people. I’m house-trained, crate-trained, and know commands like “sit,” “shake,” and “drop it.” My leash manners are great, and I adore nature hikes! At home, I’m calm and well-mannered – I don’t bother with things that aren’t mine and love being brushed and pampered. I bond quickly and will nudge you for pets or flash my signature grin when I’m feeling playful. I recently played well with a doggy pal here at the shelter and enjoyed romping around with him in the play yard! I loved my foster home but can’t wait to find my own loving family! Apply today to meet me and learn more about your future best friend, Blue Boy! 🐾

Story
In September 2022, my partner and I adopted a three-month-old puppy from the SPCA in Charlottesville, Virginia. Initially shy and anxious, Albus was listed as a Labrador, but a DNA test revealed he was a mix: 53% Australian Cattle dog, 19% Australian Shepherd, 17% Rottweiler, and 10% American Bulldog. Albus (now almost 2.5 years old) is a sweet, fun, and challenging dog. He is challenging due to his reactivity around strangers, which has improved greatly over the last year. We love Albus, and wish we did not have to rehome him - but we need to relocate for career purposes, and would also like to start a family. Having a baby, and managing a challenging dog is more than we feel we can handle. Albus would be a perfect companion in a home where he has space to run and play fetch, with no young children, and an experienced dog owner who can continue to train him. Because he can be reactive to strangers, a home that does not have lots of new people coming by would be more ideal.

Story
Meet Bluey, a very sweet dog who adores attention from everyone she meets. While she can be reactive when other dogs pass by her kennel, she thrives when given a purpose. Bluey is looking for a home in a peaceful country setting with a large yard where she can run and play. She needs a dedicated owner who has time, patience, and a desire to give her a fulfilling job. With the right environment, Bluey will be the perfect companion. Bluey does have a bite history from redirecting while walking past another dog in the kennel.Bluey's Bite occurred during a high-stressed moment in her kennel environment. It was redirection of frustration, not an act of aggression. Bluey has never shown intentional harm towards people and is incredibly affectionate outside of stressful Situations.

Story
This story is from Kevins rescuer, the police officer. We got a call about a puppy being tied on a vacant properties porch and possibly someone trespassing on the property. Once I arrived on the property, no one could be located, but the puppy was tied to a porch railing and left with no food or water. I contacted John with Baker Bridge Rescue who agreed to help me, of which I was very grateful. I then secured the pup shortly after. A couple folks floating on the river were very relieved to see the dog being taken care of!. Since getting Kevin home with us, he has gained weight and found that people can be good. He is learning potty training and playing with the other dogs. He loves playing with toys. If you are interested in learning more about Kevin (puppy), please email BakerBridgeRescue@aol.com and ask for an application. Once we review it, we will call you. We transport every other week to a location near you with the most animal friendly transport - Rescue Riders Transport.

Story
Hoagie is a young, sweet, playful boy. He is currently around 8-9 months old. We adopted him from our local SPCA in July. He is quite a mix of different breeds but is primarily australian shepherd and Australian cattle dog. He is about 45 lbs. He has adapted well to our family and our other dog. However, we are a busy household with young toddlers, and he would do better where he can be walked more and get more attention. Our kids love him and we wish we could keep him, but we think he would have a happier life where he can have more attention and 1:1 training. He is crate trained and knows some simple commands. He is up to date on all vaccines and is spayed. He is GREAT with dogs and young kids. I'm unsure of cats, as he's never been around them. He loves chew bones, playing with other dogs, and belly rubs. Let me know if interested in making a sweet addition to you family!
