FOUND A HOME!! Black Kitten

"Hello. I was found in Harrisonburg on Collicello Street. Right now I am staying with someone who was generous enough to take me in, but I need to find a permanent loving home quickly. I am a people lover, and I love to follow you around! And even though I'm young I am a quick learner. Tell me "no" and usually I listen. If you aren't interested in me please forward the email you received on to others as emails can go very, very far." :)

Beagle Girl

Hi,

I know everyone is so full and working hard to help so many in need. Please help pass this little girl on...she is at Westmoreland County Animal Shelter in Montross , VA. This is what Dale said about her:

R104 is a beautiful beagle. She deserves all the good things that a loving family can offer. She is fine with children and with other dogs. She was picked up as a stray so we know no past history on her. Please call the shelter today at 804-493-0869 to adopt her. Her last day date is 4/15. She is about 12 - 15lbs.

Please ask for Dale or Tommy if you can help.

This is my friend, Fluffy. I found Fluffy on Petfinder and went to visit her at BARCS - the Baltimore City Shelter. Fluffy came and sat down by my feet, looked up at me with her cateract stained eyes and just waited for me to pet her. She is currently living in this shelter with over 400 (yes, 400!) other animals - mostly pit bulls. I would have taken her home right then and there but have a full house with 6 old dogs right now. Please, please, help me get her out of there. She is 12 years old, seems to be a sweet ol gal. She should not go to a home with cats (she likes to chase them). A home with fewer dogs - or as an only dog would be best. She is frightened around other dogs at first and can be defensive but then warms up. Poor Fluffy keeps finding herself at this shelter. First she was picked up as a stray, then adopted for 2 years. The people moved and brought her back. Then she was adopted in F ebuary but the people brought her back because she chased their cat. So....this sweet girl sits and waits. BARCS does an incredible job but even with all the volunteers they have, keeping a facility that houses 400+ animals clean and smelling good is impossible. Last weekend, BARCS took in 78 animals. With another weekend coming up, the numbers will certainly rise. Fluffy is spade, chipped, vetted, utd on shots, and frontlined. Please, pass on to anyone who might consider giving this girl a chance to live out her life in a home instead of dying in a shelter. Please - for Fluffy. Contact:

Sweet Pea

My Name is Sweet Pea
Do you need love? I’ve got plenty!

They identify me as a 55 lb. Australian Sheppard approximately 2 years old. I was named Sweet Pea by the two vet techs who thought I was just so sweet! I was found in a yard under a car in Georgia assumed abandoned due to the high number of foreclosed homes in the area. I seem to have lived off yard mushrooms, so she’ll still grab one when walking. Attempts to find my family failed & I had no chip. Luckily I was rescued by an old lady who that very week was returning to live in Virginia. So she backed me in with her other 3 dogs – and off I came to VA. Prior to leaving GA I got my rabies shot and was found heartworm positive. That old lady said I was just too sweet – so she got me treated in Waynesboro by some very nice people at Commonwealth and I am all better now. I recently got spayed too. So I’m ready for a home and someone to really love me… my own family.

The old lady doesn’t have kids, but I seem to respond favorably to them. I have lots of energy and need a fenced yard to run in. I have been an inside dog, well house trained. I am a great car traveler with long and short distance trips. I seem pretty true to my breed as I gently paw the little dog (3 pounds) in the house in an effort to herd her some times. I’m curious about cats, but again – she doesn’t have any. I play with the middle dog running in the GA yard when visiting – its fenced. I seem passive with the biggest dog in the house always being polite and respectful to her near 90 pounds. I know some basic commands and catch on fast. I walk daily with the big dogs. I am not food aggressive and will let you touch me or hold my bowl when I eat, but I will need some more work in this area. I have some cute ways – like I’ll dance on two legs for dinner, sitting my head on your leg while you work, climbing between or onto your legs for love, or sitting with my paws crossed while the old lady works at her desk. I know to stay out of the kitchen and I’ll sit there patiently waiting at the threshold. I will come with a bed, lead, gentle leader, heart worm pills for several months and my current dog food. I chewed my bowl – so it won’t be coming with me. I am a great dog and you would love me because I will love you back fully.

Angie

I am a very sweet, playful and energetic 4 year old Boxer Mix.
Angie is a very confident and self assured girl despite getting “passed around”. She had been adopted after her former owner had abandoned her.

Now Angie is currently at Wagging Tails Kennel in Chesterfield County VA – where she has been since August when her human had to go back into the military.

He has since been deployed to Iraq and funds for boarding have run out.

Angie is very playful and toy and food motivated.
She loves to play fetch.
Gets along with other dogs.
Hasn’t shown signs of aggression or food aggression.
She was kenneled with another dog while at Wagging Tails.

Angie is Spayed and UTD on shots. Next annual exam due in August.

For more information – please contact Megan Caston @ Wagging Tails. 804.639.6609.
Or you can email Natalie at nseller@mindspring.com.

Angie is a really beautiful and sweet girl who deserves a permanent home.

Bentley

Bently is a sweet 3 year old Shepherd Mix who unfortunately made a bad decision. His human pulled him from under a table by his back haunches and unfortunately Bentley bit him.

His humans were going to put him down – but Megan Caston asked them to reconsider and board him while they tried to rehome him.

Bentley is a somewhat shy and cautious but very loving boy who could use another chance.

According to Megan, he is not an aggressive dog and has always been one of her favorite boarders.

Megan works at the boarding kennel and is a trainer at Beast to Best Dog Training.

If you are interested in rescuing Bentley please contact Megan at 804.639.9609 or you can email Natalie at nseller@mindspring.com.

Hopefully we can find this boy the home he deserves.

Rusty

RUSTY IS A TWO YEAR OLD, ENGLISH COONHOUND, BLUE HELLER MIX. (THAT IS OUR GUESS ANYWAY.) RUSTY IS A GREAT DOG THAT HIS FOSTER FAMILY HAS BECOME QUITE ATTACHED TO. RUSTY IS LOOKING FOR A HOME WHERE HE WILL RECEIVE LOTS OF ATTENTION AND EXCERCISE. RUSTY LOVES TO PLAY FETCH AND LAY IN THE BABY POOL. HE IS A GREAT JOGGING BUDDY WHO CAN PACE HIMSELF AND RUN LONG DISTANCES. RUSTY IS CRATE-TRAINED. HE GOES INTO HIS CRATE WITHOUT ANY PROBLEMS AND SLEEPS QUIETLY THROUGH THE NIGHT. RUSTY PLAYS WITH MANY OTHER DOGS AT HIS FOSTER HOME. HOWEVER, HE CAN BE POSSESSIVE OF FOOD. WE FEEL THAT RUSTY WILL BE MOST SUCCESSFULL IN A HOME WITHOUT OTHER DOGS OR SMALL CHILDREN.

HE IS A GOOD MEDIUM SIZE (51 POUNDS) WITH A BEAUTIFUL SHORT COAT THAT BARELY SHEDS. IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO MEET RUSTY,
