Adult (3 years 10 months) · Female · Husky / Pomeranian / Mixed · 13 mi from Oxford

FOSTER OR FOSTER-TO-ADOPT NEEDED FOR LUCY

This beautiful girl is 4 years old, about 30 lbs., and believed to be a Husky/Pomeranian mix. Before coming to CCRC, Lucy was used for breeding and had never even stepped outside.

Imagine experiencing the world for the very first time at four years old.

Lucy has been slowly learning that life can be safe, kind, and even fun. She has already made so much progress, but now she needs a foster home or even better, a foster-to-adopt home

Lucy will need a safe, quiet space in the home where she can decompress and acclimate.

She needs someone patient who understands that new things will take her a little longer.

Read more about Lucy

She has done amazing with the dogs she has met, so another friendly, confident dog could be a wonderful companion for her.

And you won’t be doing this alone. CCRC will set both you AND Lucy up for success. We provide the supplies, guidance, transportation and support you need along the way.

Lucy has spent enough of her life simply existing. Now we want her to learn what it means to be someone’s dog.

Can you be the person who helps Lucy take that next step?

Head on over to www.ccrcdogs.com if you are interested in Lucy. Even if you can’t foster, please SHARE this post for her.

Meet Raven!

Raven is a
3-year-old, 70-pound Rottweiler
with a big personality and an even bigger love for life!

Her foster says Raven is
fun, playful, affectionate, and full of enthusiasm

Raven
LOVES kids!
Because she’s a big, exuberant girl who sometimes forgets just how big she is, we think she’d be happiest with
older kids
who can handle her enthusiasm.

And Raven definitely knows how to play hard and nap hard! She’ll burn through her energy, take a quick snooze, and then wake up ready for round two.

Raven is looking for a family who will appreciate her goofy, energetic personality and continue helping her become the best girl she can be. If you’re looking for a

Cubert was found abandoned on a very very rural road, practically in the middle of nowhere. (Video in comments when we found him) He stayed sitting in the same spot on the side of the road for who knows how long. When we got to him, he was skin and bones, absolutely starving and sad. He smelt like vomit and garbage
Cubert has since turned around completley!!
He has gained 10lbs, is fully vet treated, and is a very happy go lucky boy!! He loves treats, stuffed animal toys & ropes, he likes to play catch, and he LOVES to bury his head in your lap and get all of the lovings in the world. He knows sit, speak and shake but he gets very excited so some times he forgets He is starting to figure out “stay” and “back”.

~Active household, he would love to go for frequent runs or walks and he loves to play.

Read more about Lark

She is the kind of dog who seems to really want that connection with her person — the attention, the affection, the closeness. She wants someone she can love and trust. She’s looking for her person. Someone who will give her a safe place to land. Someone who will let her decompress. Someone who will give her the time and patience to figure out what life is supposed to feel like outside of a shelter. And just look at her — Lark is looking fantastic. She has already shown everyone how wonderful she can be. Now we need to give her the opportunity to truly relax, settle in, and show us who she is when she isn't surrounded by the stress of a shelter environment. It could be the difference between continuing to wait behind kennel doors and finally getting to experience a soft bed, a routine, a yard, a couch, a person to love, and a place she can finally call safe. Her puppies have been given their chance. Now it’s Lark’s turn. She has spent enough time waiting. #MADRescue #MADRescueDogs #MADRescueMalinois #MalinoisInNeed #FosterSavesLives #FosterNeeded #RescueMalinois #MalinoisRescue #AdoptDontShop #RescueMe #SaveLark #FosterARescue All MAD dogs come with a Fi Collar and six month subscription. ***************If you are interested in adopting this pet, please complete an application at this link: https://petstablished.com/adoption_form/24689/generic. ***************MAD is an official 501c3 organization that does not have a physical location.

Adopting a dog in Oxford

Most rescues ask you to fill in an application, meet the dog, and pay an adoption fee that usually covers spaying or neutering, vaccinations and a microchip. Many are foster-based, so you'll often meet your dog in a volunteer's home rather than a shelter.

Senior dogs are often the calmest companions and the slowest to find homes. If you'd like a settled, affectionate dog, ask the rescues about their older residents.

Puppies go quickly, so if you've fallen for one, contact the rescue soon. Ask how big they're expected to grow, and plan for plenty of house-training and training in the first few months.
