While there may be a modest adoption or rehoming fee, this is not a breeder or pet store service. Instead, you’re offering a second chance to a pet in need — and receiving a loving companion in return.
So if you’re searching for pets for sale in Washington DC, we invite you to consider adoption as a compassionate, affordable alternative.

Very sweet senior Boxer dog needing foster care in Alexandria VA and area. BJ is LOVE on four legs! BJ is a really good dog. This 12 years young Boxer is about as nice a dog as you will find anywhere. He is good with people of all ages, including small children, others dogs, and cats. This handsome dog is very healthy, fully vaccinated, fixed, house broken, crate trained, leash trained and is very well behaved.
BJ’s owner is scheduled for a temporary move to Spain in early September, and although he would love to bring BJ along, the costs and potential risks to BJ’s health and well-being that a long flight in cargo and then a long period of quarantine would carry are more than his owner is willing to risk.
He is dearly hoping to find a dog lover or dog loving family who will take BJ into their hearts and home and care for him as if he were their own. BJ’s new family will receive a monthly stipend, all supplies and accessories, vet care costs and anything else that is needed for BJ. They will also receive the owner’s deep gratitude and friendship.
Are you able to foster this very sweet and deserving dog for the next few years? Please contact us by visiting his adoption story and completing our meeting request form. BJ and his owner, Abel, look forward to meeting you.
