About Rebekah - Your Loyal, Loving Adventure Buddy!
Rebekah is a 4-year-old, 55 lb sweetheart who is looking for her forever home! She’s a local celebrity, strutting her stuff on WMAR-2 News’ Pets on Set segment! and stole the show! Her most iconic features? Her bat ears and her absolute love for humans and kiddos!
Personality
If you’re looking for a dog who adores her people, Rebekah is your girl! She is incredibly affectionate and she’s happiest when she’s by your side, soaking up pets and love. She’s also food-motivated and eager to please, making her a great candidate for continued training. She is fully house- and crate-trained - in fact, she sleeps soundly for 9 hours in her crate without making a peep (and will happily go in for a treat!).
Energy Level
Rebekah is a chameleon! During the weekdays, she loves chewing a bully-stick or sleeping while her foster mom works from home. At night, she will happily “Netflix and chill.” On weekends, she will happily join you on a trail walk or a “sniffari” around the neighborhood before settling in. Check out her recent foster-family adventures!
Skills and Training
She walks well on a leash most of the time—just a little zig-zagging here and there! Like many pups, she’s very curious about squirrels and other critters on walks, but who isn’t?! She’s a car ride enthusiast and would love to be your road trip buddy! She knows “sit” and “crate” in her foster home. She can be a bit of a rascal - she’s a bit of a countersurfer (tall girl perks!) and likes to jump up for affection. With her intelligence and love for treat, she will continue to work on training in her foster home!
Companionship
Rebekah can be a choosy with her dog friends, so she will need slow introductions in any new household. In a previous foster home, she lived with her bestie: a 60-lb male lab-mix. He found his forever home and she’s just waiting on hers!
Love and Affection
This sweetheart adores her people! She thrives on structure and routine. She is currently on prescription medications that help her live her best and happiest life – just like many humans! She will shower you with love and affection in her forever home. If you’re looking for an affectionate, fun-loving companion who will be your shadow and your best friend, Rebekah is waiting to meet you!

All adult dogs, cats, and kittens are altered prior to adoption. Puppies too young to be altered at the time of adoption must be brought to our partner vet in Ashland, VA for spay or neuter paid for by Operation Paws for Homes by 6 months of age. Adopters may choose to have the procedure done at their own vet before 6 months of age and be reimbursed the amount that the rescue would pay our partner vet in Ashland.
This dog's bio is based off the experiences of the foster and/or volunteers of OPH as well as any information that we received from the shelter or previous owner. This is very important because it means that while they may act one way in the foster’s home, you may experience something different in your home.
