WOOF! WOOF! My friend "Miss Sherry" from Advocates for Abused and Abandoned Pets (A3P) brought by two sweet pets for you to meet this week! They are looking for their "Forever Homes!" with humans to love who will love them too. They do not need to be adopted together. Barks.

Meet Cutie Pie! She was surrendered to the Caroline County shelter when her human passed away. Barks, she was surrendered with a horrific skin condition which requires weekly baths and treatment. She is improving but has a little ways to go! Meows.

Cutie Pie's name really fits her in my barkingly humble opinion! She is a sweetheart too. She's around 2-4-years-old and wants nothing more than to hang out with her human!

She is content to be laying on a couch or recliner nearby and will gladly roll over for a belly rub or two.

Paws, Cutie Pie has been fostered with other dogs and fits in just fine!

Woofs, if you are looking for an adorably cute, loving furry friend and are willing to help her get better, pawlease contact "Miss Sherry" at a3p.advocates@gmail.com.

Meows! Purrs! Pawlease meet Lami!

Paws, Sweet Lami is a laid-back all-around mellow kittie!  She is from Roanoke, Virginia but found her way to the Northern Virginia area.

Meows, Lami is one pawsitively beautiful kitten.  She can be a bit shy initially but is now a confident girl living among a dozen or two kittens. 

Meows, Lami is around 2-years-old. Though many kittens her age move around quickly, she hasn't had any interest!

If you would like more information about Lami, pawlease contact a3p.petlovers@gmail.com.

Meows! My friend "Cat Lady" from PetConnect Rescue brought by two kitties for you to meet this week! Jimmy and Peggy! Purrs!

Jimmy is an 8.5-year-old tuxedo cat, Peggy is a five-year-old tortoiseshell cat whose human passed away! They were brought to PetConnect Rescue to help find them new “Forever Homes!” with humans to love who will love them. They are missing their human!

The pair are being fostered in a home with other cats but are hesitant around dogs! They will probably do best in a home without young mini-humans!

These sweet kittens can be adopted separately, but PetConnect Rescue, and these two pawsomely adorable cats, would like to be adopted together- it would be their dream!

Barks! My friend "Lab Lady" from Lab Rescue brought by a pawsome fella named Goofy! He is a Black Labrador Retriever and around 1-year-old! He has had a few physical challenges in his short life but he is one happy fella and making some great strides.

Goofy is looking for his "Forever Home!" with humans to love who will love him in a rural or suburban single-family house with a fenced yard!

Paws, when Goofy arrived at Lab Rescue four weeks ago, he had a broken jaw with many fractured teeth barely able to open his mouth due to the pain! Now, he can open his mouth wide!

Goofy loves other dogs but he's not allowed to play hard for now. Barkingly, since hs ie feeling better, he is all puppy and wants to play, run, and play with toys. Barks, though he will get there ... paws, he is pawmitted gently and supawvised interactions until his jaw bone is healed. 

Paws, he loves sleeping on a dog bed in an x-pen next to his foster dog brothers! He enjoys snuggling with his humans more than anything! He loves doing that on the couch.

Goofy has a pawsomely great dispawsition! When he is fully recovered, he will be barkingly grand fun!

Woofsters, Goofy is Heartworm Positive. Paws, Heartworm is highly treatable and treatment will be provided, at no cost to the adopter, at one of Lab Rescue's designated vets. Completing Heartworm treatment at the veterinarian designated by the Rescue is a requirement of adoption.  Paws, interested adopters should visit these pages: Lab Rescue - Heartworm and Lab Rescue - Heartworm Protocol to learn the basics of Heartworm treatment.

Barks, Goofy is unknown with cats and approved for mini-humans ages 10 and older.

WOOF! BARKS! Meet my new friend from Operation Paws for Homes, Mama Mia!

Creative: from The Dog's Paw!

Barkingly, Mama Mia is an active terrier mix looking for a "Forever Home!" with humans to love who will love her too! She is not suitable for an apartment or condo or other urban setting. Pawlease, she says, no cats in her new home - she loves chasing small animals too much!

WOOFs! Mama Mia loves being around her humans! Paws, she plays well with her furry-foster sister and her human foster brothers! She gets super excited to meet new people and dogs. Once she gets to know you, she does well.

She loves playing with her toys, ropes, balls, and especially toys that squeak! If you like tug-of-war, she is the dog for you! Paws!

Mama Mia is house- and crate-trained! She sleeps well her crate but prefers to be with her humans during the day if they are around!

Woof, she is a very smart girl! She found the bells on her foster's door and rings it when she wants to go outside or wants some attention!

Mama Mia is a high-energy girl, barkingly, a long walk or quick jog is the best way to start her day! She is very strong and is working on her leash manners! She does well with a front-clip harness. It's hard for her not to pull when her humans aren't as fast as her and she wants to check out all the exciting smells and critters outside.

Paws and barks, since Mama Mia is so happy and playful, she will do best with a family who doesn't small mini-humans. A human adopter with some dog experience is preferred.

Barks, if you would like to learn more about adopting a dog from Operation Paws for Homes, pawlease visit their Adoption Guide.

If you would like to meet or apply to pawssibly adopt Mama Mia, pawlease complete the Operation Paws for Homes Dog Adoption Application!
