Our Dogs
Meet our wonderful
dogs for adoption!
Our dogs are in ECHO foster homes or are in transition and soon to be on their way to a foster home.
We do try to list them as soon as we can! Sometimes it takes a while to get to know the new arrivals, so please be patient with us:)
Our dogs for adoption are not first come, first served. Although we do consider applications on file first, our goal is to find the home that is the best home for that particular dog. Be patient! Your perfect companion will come along!
If you would like to fill out an application for us to keep on file, click here.
Meet Valor
ECHO RESCUE pulled 5 month old Valor from a Maryland shelter. He was picked up as a stray and brought to BCAS.
Thanks to a wonderful foster offer from Kim, we were able to save him.
We knew he had some sort of injury that was causing rear end weakness.
But we were totally shocked by what the x-ray showed:
Valor had been shot!
His body is riddled with buck shot.
Who would do this to a 5 month old puppy!?
He was essentially shot and left on the streets to die. I will never understand people.
We are hoping to bring him to Northstar today for a CAT scan.
But we need your help.
We know that money is tight for everyone. Everyone is struggling. But if you would consider making a donation towards Valor’s care, that would be greatly appreciated.
Valor Pupdate 9/14/2025:
Thank you to everyone who has sent donations. We are about half way there!
Valor had the CT Scan yesterday morning and they could see one of the pellets pressing on or inside the spinal column. In the afternoon the neurologist did a myogram and could see that the pellet was in between number 9/10 vertebrates. They did surgery, but found it was embedded in his spinal cord. Since he does have some motor ability, she felt it was safer to leave it than risk damage pulling it out. She recommends PT so we will be working on setting that up.
He is recovering nicely, and is headed back to his foster. Take a look at Valor WALKING!
We have set up an amazon wish list to help Valor's amazing foster, Kim, with his care.
Valor Pupdate 9/17/2025:
Thank you so much for all of your generous support. Because of your kindness, we have covered Valor’s medical expenses and the remainder will go towards his physical therapy which will begin after his check up with the neurologist.
Thank you to everyone sending items from Valor’s wish list! He is feeling better and his puppy energy is back. His foster is trying to keep him calm. He is a good boy and goes outside to potty but he wants to go right back in:(
Follow-up with the neurologist is the end of next week.
Keep those good vibes coming!
Please Note:
Valor is not yet available for adoption

Farewell
Star
Sadly, Star has recently crossed the rainbow bridge.
She was not feeling well, and after several vet visits, she left us.
We wish to convey a special thank you
to her fosters, Adam, Joey and their girls,
for giving Star a year of amazing care, security,
and above all, love.
