Pinecone's Story

Hi! My name is Pinecone (don't ask me where that came from). <br/><br/>The world is still pretty new to me, so sometimes I get a little overwhelmed. But once I know I'm safe, I love to explore. I also like to chase my tail. I'm lucky it's so long because I WILL catch it someday.<br/><br/>I know I'm supposed to go potty outside, but sometimes I just can't hold it yet! I also know my crate is a safe space, but if I can see you, I'd really rather be with you. I don't even mind baths. The first time, I wasn't sure what was happening, so I jumped in to get a better look...and then suddenly I was all wet! I learned how to do these things called steps, and sometimes I like to skip the last one on my way down. That's how I roll.<br/><br/>My foster mom says I prance around like a baby goat, but I'm not sure I know what a goat is yet. I do know there is no other dog in the oven. I thought there was, but it turns out it was just my reflection. My foster mom could have given me some warning before she opened the oven to prove it, though. I about lost my mind .<br/><br/>I like being held and being near my people while they do their human stuff. Did you know sending an email can make a whoosh sound? I was a little weirded out by that at first, but I get it now. <br/><br/>I'm looking for a family who will help me continue getting to know this big world and teach me all the things I need to know to become the very best boy I can be. A calm home would be best, so I don't get overstimulated. Is that you? If so, please apply so we can be together forever.

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.
