Due to no fault of his own, this sweet boy finds himself in-need of a new forever family/home. 🤍 Abel (male) is a 1 year old mystery mix (possibly some pittie or catahoula, but your guess is as good as ours!) who has the most beautiful [one] blue eye. Abel is a sweet snuggle-bug! He is young and energetic, but at the end of the day LOVES to curl up with someone he loves…whether they be 2-legged or 4-legged! He loves to play and absolutely adores his doggie friends. Abel has done amazing with every single dog he has met, and would probably really fancy having another pup in his forever home to play and cuddle with! He also really loves his toys and enjoys playing outside. Although a fenced-in yard is not required, it is something that Abel would definitely love; he’d be able to romp, run, and play to his heart’s content! When it comes to kitties, Abel is a bit too curious and will chase them if given the chance…therefore we would recommend a home without cats for this boy. He loves kiddos, however, and has lived with as young as an infant without any issue. He is also potty-trained and crate-trained. He is a sweet, friendly, and happy little man! He has proven how adaptable he is with his recent life changes, and would truly make an excellent family addition! If you’d like to make Abel a part of your crew, please apply + reach out and ask for Abel! 🥰 APPLY HERE: https://newleashdogrescue.com (or private message us if you’re already preapproved!).  **Abel’s $200 adoption fee includes his neuter, vaccinations, heartworm text, and microchip. show less

Who’s in the market for a pretty pittie? Look no further….Athena is your girl! 😍 She is a 2 year old, 60lb LOVER who is fully potty-trained, crate-trained, and is just as smart as can be! Athena comes when she’s called, sits on command, and trains easily with treats (win-win!). She adores giving smooches, and will shower her people with all of the kisses they could ever wish for! Athena thinks she’s a lapdog (which we fully support her in 🥰), and would love nothing more than to snuggle the day away on the lap of her human…with one zoomie-session per day for good measure, of course! We aren’t 100% sure of Athena’s past, but at one point she likely went without food as she does get possessive of her food and treats. Therefore she would do best with a dog-savvy person/family who is willing to keep her food stored separate from the every day living space/common area, and be diligent about feeding her separately from children and/or other dogs in the home. Athena love, love, LOVES kids! However in-order to set her up for success in her forever home, we are recommending a family with kiddos old enough (ages 10+) to understand and respect her specific needs when it comes to her resource guarding tendencies. She is extremely teachable, so would also probably thrive in (& really benefit from!) some training courses. Athena does need a home without kitties/other small animals, but she does do fine with other doggos as long as — again — she is fed separately from them. She does tend to be partial to females, but will warm up to men pretty quickly if they are patient, gentle, and mellow around her. Athena just truly loves being around her people! She has been waiting very patiently for the right family to give her a solid shot at forever. Let’s find this sweet girl the home of her dreams! If you’d like to make this beautiful babe your newest BFF and family member, please apply + reach out and ask for Athena! 💖💕 APPLY HERE: https://newleashdogrescue.com (or private message us if you’re already preapproved!).  **Athena’s $200 adoption fee includes her spay, vaccinations, heartworm test, and microchip.  show less

This beautiful lil-lady is Avery, and she is hoping to score a forever family of her very own! 💕Avery (female) is a 1 year old pittie mix of sorts...with the most gorgeous brindle coloring — her photos simply don’t do her justice! 😍 She weighs right around 40-45lbs. Avery is an absolute sweetheart. She is a timid gal, so her person/family should understand that she may not make an initial impression of being very affectionate…but once she knows you [and trusts you] she is beyond loving! She truly has a heart of gold! 💛 She tends to do much better with people upon first meet if they’re sitting down…with treats in tow, of course! Something to note: Avery is never, ever aggressive; she is simply shy. We don’t know what her past exactly entails, but her foster family has said that earning her affection and trust has been so incredibly rewarding! She is 100% potty-trained and has had no accidents in her foster home. She is also crate-trained and does wonderful kenneling-up at nighttime, which is where she sleeps through the night. When let out of her kennel, she is super quiet and calm. Overall, she’s a pretty chill gal! Avery loves other dogs and made fast friends with the foster’s resident dog! She is also pretty oblivious to kitties, so would do well in a home with cats. She has been around kids as young as age 1 and has done just fine. We think she’d do well with kiddos who are old enough to respect her initial uncertainty around new human friends. If you are looking for a sweet, lovable, laid-back, precious pupper…Avery is your gal! If you’d like to make this sweetie yours forever, please apply + reach out and ask for Avery! 💗 APPLY HERE: https://newleashdogrescue.com (or private message us if you’re already preapproved!).  **Avery’s $200 adoption fee includes her spay, vaccinations, heartworm test, and microchip. show less

This beauty is Barkley, and we are hoping that the perfect forever home is out there for this sweet girl. She is a special gal who has a few quirks, but let’s face it...don’t we all?! Barkley is 4 years old, and we are told is a lab/boxer mix, but it’s possible she may have some pit in her as well. She does well with all dogs that are around her size or larger. She hasn’t lived with cats, but she has been a little too interested in the cats she has come into contact with...so we are recommending a cat-free home. Barkley’s ideal home would be a calm household on a quiet street with minimal visitors and a fenced-in yard. She tends to get nervous when meeting new people, and her forever family will need to understand that she’ll need some time and a safe space (her crate) to allow her to warm up and be more comfortable. Once she is bonded with her people she also tends to be a bit protective of them, so may need to be crated if new people visit her home. Barkley’s foster mom says once she is comfortable with people, she is so very sweet, goofy, cuddly, and lovable! She loves bones, playing ball, and her stuffed toys. She is crate-trained, keeps a very clean kennel, and is fully house-trained. She also loves playing and snuggling with her 4-legged foster siblings, so Barkley would love another dog in her forever home to both learn from and bond with. She also loves going for walks, but does need consistency and continued training when on-leash as she does get stressed and vocal when meeting other dogs/people when leashed. Having some yummy treats along on her walks definitely helps! She will need an experienced owner with an abundance of patience and grace. We are also recommending no young children in the home (kids ages 15+ would be best). We know that her perfect home is out there...and we would appreciate you sharing her gorgeous face so that we can all help Barkley find her forever! ❤️ **If you have any questions about Barkley, please feel free to reach out to us! Her adoption fee includes her spay, vaccines, heartworm test, and microchip. show less

Some intakes break our hearts a bit more than others…and Buddy is definitely one of those cases. At 5 years old, Buddy has never had a family, has never known anything except life on a chain (with sores around his neck from wearing a collar much too tight), and was never even given a name. After hearing his story, one of our amazing fosters stepped in and welcomed this boy with open arms….and Buddy’s life is now forever changed! ❤️ He will soon be ready for the forever home he has long been searching for, and we are honored to be the ones to help him find the love and companionship he deserves. Buddy is a husky/lab mix, is 5 years old, and weighs around 55-60lbs. In typical husky fashion, Buddy can be a vocal guy! He is a confident boy who does really well with other dogs. He LOVES to be outside! Since being outdoors is all he’s ever known, he is still adjusting to being welcomed inside, so can still be a little bit timid indoors. He is good with other animals: including cats, chickens, and goats. A fenced-in yard would be a major perk for this boy, however this is not a requirement. Buddy will need help with leash-training and his basic manners, as these are things he has never been taught and/or exposed to…but his foster mom says he is a quick learner and is doing better every day! He isn’t a big fan of his kennel as of yet (and is a bit of a Houdini!), so will need lots of patience, persistence, and positive reinforcement from his forever person/family as he learns everything new and fun in this fresh start he’s been given! His foster mom says that Buddy is an overall chill boy; while he is still curious, he mostly enjoys hanging out, his bones and toys, and cuddles + relaxation with his person. While we don’t know what Buddy’s previous feeding schedule was like, we do know that he can get protective and resource guard when there’s food around. He has never displayed this behavior around dog food/dog treats (only around yummy smelling people-food!), but in knowing this we think he would do best with older, more responsible children or in an all-adult home. We would love nothing more than to see Buddy settle into the loving home he deserves. If you are interested in making this handsome guy’s wildest dreams come true…please apply + reach out and ask for Buddy! 🥰🐾 APPLY HERE: https://newleashdogrescue.com (or private message us if you’re already preapproved!).  **Buddy’s $200 adoption fee includes his neuter, vaccinations, heartworm test, and microchip.  show less

Handsome is an understatement! There’s no denying our boy Danny is a looker. And if you’re in the market, this looker could be all yours…for life! 🥰 Danny is 2 years old and we aren’t totally sure what his breed mix is, but he has the most beautiful blue eyes, adorable spots, and brindle mixed in. It’s possible he could be a catahoula/pittie of sorts, but really your guess is as good as ours! He LOVES to snuggle, and is convinced he is a big lap-dog. He loves to play, loves to run around the backyard (and he would love a fenced-in one at his forever home), and loves treats. He is fully potty-trained, and when he comes back inside he sits down nicely waiting for his treat! Danny is as sweet as can be with human friends, but when it comes to other dogs he is quite selective in who he chooses to make friends with. He will play politely with some, but is very stand-offish with others. Because of this, he is definitely not a dog park or doggie-daycare candidate. He also would need to meet any potential resident dogs prior to adoption. Most of all, he would love to be your one and only pup-companion! However he is cat-friendly, so would be a good option for a home with kitties! He does need a home without chickens. He would do just fine with kiddos who aren’t super young, simply because he does tend to paw at people for attention…and his paws aren’t necessarily the smallest. ☺️ Danny is the sweetest, most snuggly boy. He may have a few quirks, but we are confident the right home is out there for him! If you think you’d like to make him your new companion + BFF, please apply and reach out. Just ask for Danny! 💙 APPLY HERE: https://newleashdogrescue.com (or private message us if you’re already preapproved!).  **Danny’s $200 adoption fee includes his neuter, vaccinations, heartworm test, and microchip.  show less

This amazingly handsome boy is Diesel, and he is as ready as ever to score himself his forever home! This dapper guy is between 3-4 years old, 70lbs, and [best guess] is a pittie/basset hound mix. Diesel wants nothing more than lots of love and a lap to lay on. 💙 He is fantastic with other dogs of all sizes + ages! And even though he has moments of playfulness with pups, he also thoroughly enjoys watching them from the comfy couch. Diesel may still be younger dude, but his foster family says he has the energy of an old man. 🙃 And he’s absolutely the snuggliest! Diesel’s main hiccup is that he does have some stranger-danger, especially with men. He is fine with new human friends once he’s allowed the time to warm up + scope them out…but he needs his forever person/family to understand that eye contact from strangers can make him nervous, and to advocate for his initial need for space. Because of this, Diesel would benefit from a home without tons of people coming in and out a regular basis. He would also do just fine with older children. He should probably go to a home without kitties. He is currently being fostered with cats, but does occasionally get too amped up and pursue them a bit too harshly. Diesel loves walks, chewing on his toys and bones…and did we mention lounging on the couch?! He should be crated when his people aren’t home as otherwise he can get himself into a bit of mischief, but he is fully kennel-trained and will kennel-up and settle in without complaint. He truly is an AMAZING boy! He is looking for someone to give him a forever chance — quirks and all! If you think you’d like to meet this handsome fella, please apply + reach out and ask for Diesel! 😍 APPLY HERE: https://newleashdogrescue.com (or private message us if you’re already preapproved!). **Diesel’s $200 adoption fee includes his neuter, vaccinations, heartworm test, and microchip.  show less

Due to a change in circumstance, handsome Huey finds himself in-need of a new foster and/or forever home! Huey (male) is now 8 months old, and — best guess — is a boxer/heeler mix. This guy has a bit of a rough past, but has come so far in his confidence + ability to trust! Due to more limited human interaction as a young pup, Huey can be a bit shy when meeting new human friends. Once he’s allowed some time to get over his initial timidness, he is insanely sweet and lovable! He really attaches to his “person” and becomes their little shadow…wanting to be by their side and/or on their lap for some sweet snuggles. ☺️ Huey also loves to sleep in the most peculiar of positions! His previous foster mom did an amazing job with his housebreaking, and Huey is now fully potty-trained. When it comes to other doggo friends, Huey loves having a playmate! However something to note is that he can be a bit of a “rough” player, so having a family that can work with him on boundaries + appropriate behavior would be ideal. We would also recommend a home with children ages 10+. He has such an amazing personality; sometimes he just needs a bit more help/guidance figuring out ”how to dog.” He is still learning more & more every day, and we can’t wait to see him come into his own even more and thrive once he officially finds his place in this world. 🥰 If you are willing to commit your time to this handsome guy (whether temporarily or permanently!), please apply + reach out and ask for Huey! 💚 APPLY HERE: https://newleashdogrescue.com (or private message us if you’re already preapproved!).  **Huey’s $250 adoption fee includes his neuter, vaccines to date, and microchip. show less

This beautiful brindle boy is Jax, and he finds himself in-need of a new foster and/or forever home. Jax (male) is 7 years young, a pittie/plotthound mix, and is truly as sweet as pie! Jax’s main perk: he ADORES kiddos! He has lived with children of all ages, and he loves them all equally — newborns, toddlers, and teenagers alike. He is very gentle, friendly, and just wants to give them love and cuddles. Jax also loves being outside and loves to play. He may be 7 years old, but still has ample energy for play sessions and adventures! When it comes to wintertime, Jax can be a little bit of a princess. 😉 He loves winter sweaters, cuddling up in blankets, and prefers his own space shoveled in the snow so he can do his business without getting his paws too wet & snowy! Jax is also amazing with other dogs; he has had no issues with any of the dogs he’s ever met…they’re all his friends! As of right now, it is unknown how he would do with kitties. To our knowledge he has never met one. Jax didn’t have much exposure to a leash in his younger years, so could use a bit of a refresher session when it comes to walking on-leash. He is potty-trained and fully crate-trained. His kennel is actually is his ”safe zone” (he can tend to have a bit of an anxious personality), and likes to have access to his crate 24/7. That way he can curl up and observe/nap/get a bit of a break from the action. One of Jax’s favorite pastimes is riding in the car — he’s a champ and makes an incredible copilot! He truly is a sweetheart, and deserves a forever family that will give him the world.

This sweet, happy boy is Jeffrey! He is 3 years old, a terrier mix of sorts, and weighs right around 45lbs. Jeffrey would do best as an only-dog. That being said, he also has some separation anxiety (as he loves his humans soooo much), so ideally would thrive with a person who’s more of a homebody and/or someone who works from home. If/when he is left home alone, he does best when kenneled (he will whine a little in his crate at first, but settles in after just a couple of minutes). Jeffrey love, love, LOVES people…kids included! He adores everyone and loves to smother his people with puppy-smooches…and would love to spend his days snuggling endlessly. Jeffrey will need a forever family who will provide him with the time and attention he needs + who will commit to working through some of his anxieties, but we promise that the love he will give in return is more than worth the effort. He just needs someone to take a chance on him…💙 APPLY HERE: https://newleashdogrescue.com (or private message us if you’re already preapproved!) **Jeffrey’s $200 adoption fee includes his neuter, vaccinations, heartworm test, and microchip. show less

This beautiful babe is still searching for a forever of her own (it’s hard to believe, we know!). Kai is a 2 year old [best guess] heeler/pointer mix, weighing in just around 40 lbs. She is a happy, energetic, and playful girl. Kai tends to be fairly calm inside the house (loves to lounge, loves her squeaky toys, and chewing on bones, etc.) but gets more excitable and energetic once she is outdoors. Similarly, during the day, she is wide awake and full of energy...while after supper she is ready to just settle in and snuggle/keep you warm. She LOVES to run, and is lightning fast! When outdoors, Kai is very focused on her surroundings and/or movement, such as wildlife and people + dogs walking by. Her foster family feels that she would do best in a home that has experience with a high energy pup like Kai. She is such a smart cookie; she knows how to sit, shake, stay, and does a good job of minding her manners. She is crate-trained and fully potty-trained. Kai has also spent some time with our amazing trainers at Fun Fur Pets, and below outlines further the ideal home environment to ensure that Kai (in all her energy!) is successful: 1️⃣ Kai needs a fenced-in yard (6ft+).  2️⃣ Kai loves other dogs and loves to play with them, so any other dogs in the home should also love to play. She plays pretty rough, so will need dogs her size (40 lbs) or larger. She would also do just fine as an only dog!  3️⃣ Kai needs a home with no kids (ages 16+ would be ok), as she has herding tendencies and will likely try to herd/chase them. 4️⃣ Kai needs a home without cats, chickens, or other small animals. All in all, Kai is truly such a fun-loving, energetic, goofy girl, who has such a zest for life! More than anything, she just needs that perfect family who understands her and her needs. If you think that’s you, please reach out to us (or complete an adoption application at https://newleashdogrescue.com) to learn more about adopting this beautiful girl! 💕 **Kai’s $200 adoption fee includes her spay, vaccinations, heartworm test, and microchip. show less

This handsome fella is Max (male), and he is a 2 year old pittie mix who is in-search of a forever family he can call his own! Max is a super sweet, super cuddly boy….and that’s not to mention insanely gorgeous (with one half-blue eye, he has the most unique coloring 💙)! His foster family calls Max their gentle giant; he would simply snuggle the day away with his people and be totally, 100% content. He is fully potty-trained, and while he is crate-trained, his foster family no longer uses it. Not only was Max not a big fan of his kennel, he is also a rockstar if left out in the house when his people aren’t home. He sleeps through the night + really loves sleeping at the foot of his human’s bed. Max does great with other dogs! He loves to play and cuddle with them, and also adores going to doggy-daycare to hang out with all of his 4-legged friends (+ loves the car-ride getting there!). And although his foster family has tried repeatedly, it has been determined — because he has a very high prey-drive — that Max does need a home without cats/other small animals. And although not necessarily a requirement, Max would also love having a fenced-in yard, so that he’s able to run and explore as his heart desires! Other than with kitties, Max is an extremely gentle boy. He can sometimes be a little bit skittish of loud noises/quick movements, so we think a home without super young children/toddlers would be best for him. He truly is an amazing boy and will make a great family addition! If you’d like to welcome this sweet guy into your home, please apply + reach out and ask for Max! 🥰 APPLY HERE: https://newleashdogrescue.com (or private message us if you’re already preapproved!).  **Max’s $200 adoption fee includes his neuter, vaccinations, heartworm test, and microchip. show less
