  — Robert W.

• “I’m phoebes older brother. I am the definition of chill and do my own thing- but love being outdoors!“

  — Nikole V.

• “Crosby is a lover! He gets along with all other animals and is very easy-going. He loves to run, swim, fetch, etc.“

  — Deb S.

• “Crosby is a nervous rescue, so we're always looking for opportunities to safely explore the world and learn that new things/people aren't scary.“

  — Kris C.

• “Crosby is a 1 year old puppy in training to be a service animal. He loves to run around and chase things. He loves being around his humans and getting belly rubs.“

  — Angel C.

• “I am a sweet and laid back boy who gets spurts of energy. I prefer to smell everything I can and love to hang with my big brothers. Every once in awhile, my brother Colt and me play chase until one of us gets too tired.“

  — Talia P.

• “Hi! I’m Crosby, a water dog stuck in the desert. My mom is always looking for new places to take me swimming & sniffing. I love other dogs, but when I’m at a pool my main priority is playing fetch in the water and swimming in circles.“

  — Meghan A.

• “The cutest heeler/collie mix you ever did see! I often get stopped on the sidewalk by people telling me how handsome I am and parents are still as obsessed with me as they were on the day I was adopted. I love fetch and running but I’m also happy to lay on the couch while being pet.“

  — Maddie M.

• “I am big brown shaggy bundle of sweetness. I love to run and swim. I am not super interested in playing with other dogs much but I do want to meet them. I am 4 and pretty well behaved. I do like to talk when I see people or dogs but I am working on appropriate greetings.“

  — Kelly M.

• “Hello! Crosby here and I am the man of the house. Mom says I am a grumpy old man, but I think it just comes with having a job like mine. I tore my ACL last year and I would rather sleep and hang out but mom insists I need to build up some muscle mass, so here we are.“

  — Shannon S.

• “Hi! I'm Crosby. I'm middle aged with a long white coat. I love to chase balls (and critters) and chew ropes. Long walks in the woods are my favorite. I'm not very friendly because some people did me wrong a long time ago. I stick with my inner squad. It takes a lot for me to warm up to new people- I'd rather bark and scare them away. I used to like other dogs but a few off-leash ones with bad manners soured me on other pups. I love to be outside as much as possible but my home only has a teeny tiny outdoor space for me. Looking forward to getting off this leash from time to time.“

  — Angela R.

• “From his petfinder profile when we adopted him: Meet Crosby Everyone, meet Crosby! Crosby is the newest member of the MAIGR. Unfortunately, Crosby suffered double fractures to his front legs before joining the rescue. Thanks to Dr. Brown and his staff, he has made a wonderful recovery and is on his way to a little more normalcy! Crosby is a 1 year old, petite, (6lbs) IG but don’t let his size fool you! He thinks he’s capable of running full speed! The ideal home for Crosby would be a quiet, and gentle home with someonewhoworks from home or has very limited hours away. He is delicate so extra care will need to be taken to make sure he does not jump on and off furniture without assistance. After all, he doesn’t think anything happened to him! Crosby gets along with everyone and loves his canine and feline companions in his foster home so his ideal home should have at least one IG friendly feline or another IG. He is crate trained, a great eater, and loves his toys and treats! He will spend a little time with his fosters as he gains some muscle and strength, but will Anxiously be awaiting the perfect home! Crosby is being fostered in Amissville, Virginia.“
