Adopt a Labrador Retriever Mix Puppy

Albert the Labrador Retriever, Pet Pardons Pet of the Day

Albert was returned to the shelter, the adopter backed out, never heard from. Albert is a great dog. He's in foster care right now but cannot stay. He is full of energy, loves kids, loves other dogs but cannot be homed with chickens :) He chases them, he doesn't kill them, but he chases them until he catches them. Albert is a hoot! He's fun, playful, great personality and just loves life. If you are looking for a high-energy family dog, this is your guy! He's housebroken too:). Please give him a chance and he will bring you lots of joy. He's not even a year old yet. To help with his costs, you can donate.

He is GOOD WITH OTHER DOGS and KIDS!

Urge the U.S. Senate to Help Veterans & Shelter Dogs H.R. 198

A bill has unanimously passed the U.S. House of Representatives that would help both veterans and shelter dogs. H.R. 198, the Veterans Dog Training Therapy Act, was approved as part of a package of veterans’ health legislation (H.R. 2074). It would create a pilot program for training dogs as a form of therapy to help treat veterans suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder or other post-deployment mental health conditions. Once trained, the dogs would assist veterans with disabilities. This legislation is a win-win solution for two deserving groups by helping homeless dogs and supporting veterans. This bill will allow dogs waiting for adoption in animal shelters to be considered for this training program to assist veterans struggling to overcome disabilities. Now we need the U.S. Senate to approve this legislation!

Adopt a Shelter Dog

Promote Shelter Dog Adoption and Raise Awareness

Show your support for saving shelter dogs and puppies while raising awareness about the importance of adopting shelter dogs. These items make special gifts for animal advocates and dog lovers, and adopters/owners of rescued dogs who've given their dogs a second chance at life with a forever home. Many shelters give dogs a deadline on their life due to funds, lack of space or their policy. Many rely on volunteers to walk and play with the dogs, which is crucial to the dog or puppy's health and happiness. Many dogs develop cage rage, causing them mental anguish from being at the shelter and they may be euthanized as a result.

Customize or Personalize the Design

Easily modify any of the items by changing colors, adding text (your shelter/rescue's name, for example), resizing the image or adding your own. The possibilities are endless!

Adopt a Black/Tan Husky Mix

With a long, heavy chain trailing behind him, Smokey the Husky was picked up by animal control in southern Virginia. In spite of what was likely an outdoor life on a chain, gentle Smokey just ADORES people and loves to stay close to those who care for him. He is very affectionate and smart, loves going on walks and being outside, and absolutely loves to sit close to his human. He does well with many dogs, but probably should not be in a home with cats because of his breed. This gorgeous boy weighs 60 lbs and is 2 yrs old, and desperately needs a loving home.

He has interacted with young children and welcomes the attention. He does not jump up on people. He enjoys both being outside and watching out the window. He is calm, friendly, gentle and playful.

He is available for adoption via PetConnect Rescue. Contact Mike at 240-449-9745 for more information. Fill out an adoption application.

I will update the blog entry once he's been adopted.

Smokey was featured in a news story about ticks (although he did not have one) while at the vet in June.

Henry has a foster but we still need funds for vetting. I had to take him to the emergency vet Sunday early early morning. I couldn't tell if he had kennel cough, pneumonia or had something lodged in his throat. We had a scary few hours, and now we have a very expensive vet bill. They tested him for kennel cough, but they couldn't determine whether it was that or pneumonia. Unfortunately, for his transport and for my other dogs, I am hoping it is not kennel cough since that is so contagious. But, pneumonia is not easy on him. Thankfully, he did not have anything lodged in his throat. His vet bill was $450.00. He is one antibiotics and cough suppressant, and will likely need a follow up exam this week before he is transported. I'm praying like crazy that he continues to improve so he can transport Saturday. Right now, I'd say (and the vet agrees) that's highly likely so I'm hopeful, but we need donations for sure.

Henry Is Also Ready For His Forever Home — he's such a good boy! He came around quickly to my husband and two of our friends. He wags his tail and just wants nothing more than to lay by you. He is crate trained, potty trained and is doing very well learning "off" and to walk on a leash. He whines a little bit when you first put him in the crate then happily settles in. Often, especially his first couple of days or when there are new guests, he chooses to lay in his open crate. He likes his toys, sleeps with one of his stuffed ones, and is eating/drinking well. He's curious, but very skittish. When he's scared, he growls and backs away, but does well quickly if a person with confidence and a reassuring voice comes along. As I type this, he is resting on my living room floor with his toy wrapped up underneath him. He is food protective around other dogs, but is by no means food aggressive. He allows me to take his toys, his food, his treats, anything away, without so much as a look. He rides in the car beautifully. I just adore him.

Melissa will be visiting the dog today and will post updated information. For now, this is all we have: ID#A149377 Unaltered male, black Labrador Retriever mix. Age unknown.
