5/12/2014 Finale update- It is with great sadness
that we post this update. Our senior man Sargent went to 'The Bridge' today where he will be waiting for all those who
loved him. Sargent lived his rescue years not as a foster but as one of the family in the home he first went to as a
foster and was very much loved in. Run free my friend with no more worries or pain. ~~~ A very happy but sad up date on Sargent. The happy part is we have decided
to not move Sargent from the home he has know since joining our rescue. The sad part is that decision has
been made because of his aging joints. Sargent will remain in what was his foster home, and is now his home, and the
rescue will continue to keep him on joint supplements and pain management along with the rest of his medical needs. If you have been interested in this
beautiful boy but for some reason could not have him join your family please consider sponsoring him to help cover the cost
of his medicine which runs about $225.00 a month. He, as well as we, would be very grateful. Sergent is a wonderful
dog. He has the energy of a puppy and the discipline of an older dog. He loves to play with his ball ball, he loves to play
with his foster brother and sister and is just enjoying himself. He has put on some weight and looks fantastic, a very handsome
German Shepherd and he is very gentle. If you're looking for a dog that your children can play with and not have to worry
if the dog will bite them Sergent is the one. He is the type of dog that doesn't get upset if you pull his tail or trim his
nails he just tolerates anything you want to do. I'm not suggesting anybody pull on his tail but kids sometimes forget. He
does have a lot of energy and he does love to bark. Just his size alone and the loudness of his bark is enough to scare any
would be intruder he makes a very good guardian dog for your home when you're not there but he is all bark and no bite. UPDATE:
August- Sargent spent sometime in foster to adopt but that did not work out because of the many steps in the home. Since he
has been back with his foster he is no longer limping and is back to playing with the other dogs in his foster home. Sarge
will need to go to a home WITHOUT steps
Meet Curly! Curly
came to us as a stray and after waiting through several weeks of advertising him as being found, and receiving no information
as to where his "home" was, he officially joined our furry family! After having him only for a few days much
was learned about him that made us very glad his owners were never found. Curly was extremely fear aggressive, and had
been neglected. We had no clue what breed he might be other then a ball of matted fur. Because of his fear, and
the severity of his matts, he had to be put under anesthesia and shaved. That is when we learned he is a Poodle
or mix of! Curly has been with us about 1.5 years now, and over that time he has moved past most of his fear issues.
I am excited to say that I (his foster) have been able to gain his trust enough to fully groom his coat with no aggression
of muzzle!! Curly is still not issues free. He remains a work in progress that takes lots of love, patience, understanding
and kindness...and training. Although Curly does LOVE children that does not mean he can go into a home with just
any children. The children is has been around have been taught since babies to respect and treat with gentleness all
animals they are around. There has to be limits set for children as well as pets. We are guessing Curly's age to be about 2.5 now. He is mostly house broken but will still mark
in the house. This is actually a training issue that needs one-on-one attention. There is zero food aggression
with people of all sizes, other dogs or cats! If interested in giving
Curly a home full of love, patience, kindness and training please contact us at dogrescuemd@live.com or download our application above. MEDICAL UPDATE and PLEA: On September 29th
he had to undergo surgery for 2 (very badly) ruptured discs which he narrowly missed being paralyzed
from. He is not totally out of the woods yet, and the coming days will tell us more about his neurological
condition. His exam and MRI visit yesterday was just a little over $2600.00,
and the estimate for surgery, treatment and recovery is so far $3500.00 - $5,000.00. He has a 95%
chance of temporarily (a few days to and few weeks) losing his ability to urinate and walk and 5% chance of being paralyzed. Without treatment it was 100% being paralyzed. Here where all of you come
in. We are in need and asking for three things... 1. Thoughts and Prayers... 2. Shares of
his post... 3. And of course any donations you are able to give. ALL of which will be greatly appreciated. You
can make checks payable to Dog Rescue of Maryland and mail to PO Box 515, Pasadena, MD. 21123, Or use our secure Pay Pal site linked on our web site below, note

My name is MOJO. I am looking
for a new forever home along with my sister HARLEY below. We are Jack Russell Terriers about
8-10 years old. We are house broken, good with cats and other dogs and good with children. Right now we are in
foster with a wonderful, loving family who just could not stand the though of us being seperated after spending all our lives
together. If you have a loving heart and would like to grow your forever family by two please contact the folks at dogrescuemd@live.com and they will be happy to help you!
