Story
Kylie needs a new home because she is not getting along with the other dog in her home. Her family is very sad to have to rehome her. Here is what they say about this beautiful dog: 'Kylie is an absolutely wonderful dog! She is very loving and attached to all her people. She is not always a fan of service people that come to the house, but any others, if we like them, she likes them. She loves to play ball and will catch it in the air and bring it to you. Kylie is good on walks but sometimes pulls when she heads home. I just stop and make her wait. She loves squeaky toys and Kongs. She is very treat motivated and takes treats extremely well, with just her lips, and will wait for anything if you tell her to 'wait'. She likes to cuddle next to us on the sofa, too. We feed her in her crate and she will go straight to it if you tell her to. She has passed all the obedience training at Petco and passed their Canine Good Citizen Test.' Thank you for your interest in Kylie! Please visit www.hart90.org/petdetail.aspx?ID=18246 to get the most up-to-date and accurate information on this pet, to email the contact person listed for more information and how to meet Kylie, or to submit an online application. HART adopts to the local DC/VA/MD metro area only. Visit our website for more information about our adoption process.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.All of the animals posted on our site have been temperament tested. While not all are in the immediate area, once we have processed and approved your application, we will move the dog to our adoptive area for you to meet, greet and hopefully adopt. Sometimes we will have more than one application on a dog. That does not mean it automatically goes to another family but you should be aware of the fact that until you are approved and set up for the meet/greet.. the dog could get adopted by another applicant.Edward is a full on, breathtakingly beautiful dog. A real show stopper! His gorgeous coat just shimmers in the sun. Not just a beauty king, he makes it even better with his extra sweet temperament. He has been bred to be a friendly, good dog. Perfect for a very best friend and family dog. When he has met other dogs, he has wanted to play and has been very good with all he has met. He is quite young, at only 7 months old, so he is the perfect age for you to teach him everything you want him to know. You can see from his expression in his picture that his eyes shine with intelligence, so the learning should be fun for both of you. He should have many, many years to love you with all his heart. He has been completely vet checked and declared 'perfect' in addition to having all his shots. Ready to play with your new family member? Come see Edward!   If you are interested in Edward, please fill out an application at: https://reachoutrescue.rescuegroups.org/forms/form?formid=4588    Or contact: rorrcanine@gmail.com   *** Click here to sponsor this dog! ***Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.December 15, 2024, 11:32 pm
