Dobby's Story

Current location: Baltimore, MD Meet Dobby - a gentle, easygoing boy who has truly blossomed in foster care and is showing more of his sweet, playful personality every day. In the mornings, he greets the day with excitement and wiggles, and he's even started showing his playful side with the resident dog. One of Dobby's favorite things is going outside for walks. The moment the leash comes out, he turns into a happy wiggle butt. He loves exploring the neighborhood and especially enjoys grassy areas where he can stop and take in all the scents. Dobby is house-trained, crate-trained, and has been incredibly quiet and well-mannered in foster care. His calm nature makes him a great fit for apartment or townhome living. After taking some time to decompress from months in the shelter, he's become a confident, affectionate companion who enjoys being part of everyday family life. He would be happiest in a quieter home with older, considerate children, though he has been nothing but calm and gentle around the younger children he has met. Watching Dobby open up, discover playfulness, and enjoy being part of a family has been incredibly rewarding. His foster mom says: "This boy is the BEST! He is so easygoing and we've loved watching his personality come out. I joke that while I walk him with his '"Adopt Me"' leash, I should add "don't" because I'll be so sad when he leaves. Someone is going to be so lucky to have him." *Dobby tested positive for heartworm disease before arriving to rescue and completed treatment while in foster care. Heartworm disease is spread through bites from infected mosquitos and is completely preventable with monthly prevention.

Operation Paws for Homes's Adoption Policy

Our organization provides pet adoption services to families located in Virginia, Washington DC, Maryland, Southern Pennsylvania and neighboring states. We believe in responsible adoptions and strive to work with each adopter to find a good match for their home and lifestyle. Our adoption process includes completion of an application, a vet check, an interview, and a personal “meet and greet” where the family can meet and interact with their potential new four-legged family member. Throughout this process, we work to ensure each family and dog are the right fit for each other. We are fortunate to have some wonderful and active volunteers who help OPH find forever homes for over 1,000 dogs and cats a year. The key to that statement is - volunteer! Please remember that our organization is driven by caring individuals who give their personal time to help rescue these animals and provide them with the opportunity to find an amazing future! In addition to adoptions, volunteers carry out education and outreach events throughout the area, and conduct donation drives for our partner shelters in the south. Our goal is to offer a second chance to dogs and cats abandoned in shelters and out of time. Sadly, without our help, some of these adoptable animals would face almost certain euthanasia - sometimes within days of arriving at the shelter. Each year we rescue hundreds of wonderful dogs and cats. We work hard to unite them with forever families who will give them the life and love they deserve. These animals are saved only because of the dedication of our incredible adopters, fosters, donors, and volunteers.

Our Mission

Creating a better world for companion animals and the community through rescue, rehabilitation, education, spay/neuter, and providing resources to underserved populations.
