My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

(DOB 09/14/2018) Jess is a hound girl through and through — goofy, chatty, and full of that classic houndy charm that’ll have you smiling from sunrise to sunset! She lives with a house full of knucklehead furbabies who are her ride-or-die crew, helping her practice for the big moment when she finds her one true love — her Very Best Forever Home!



Jess is all about playtime, adventure, and laughs. She can be a little vocal (hey, she’s a hound!) and has a silly side that shines when she’s romping with her friends. She’s dreaming of a home with a 6-foot fenced yard where she can stretch those legs, show off her hops, and zoom around with her future furry sibling. Just make sure her outdoor playtime comes with a “chaperone” — this clever little escape artist has moves that would impress an Olympian! Oh, and car rides - YES, please!



This playful girl would love an active family with another playful pup to share her adventures. She’s crate trained, potty trained, and happy to snooze in her crate or curl up on the couch after a busy day of fun. Jess is also quite the chewer (she’s got a passion for it!), so her new family will want to keep plenty of boredom-busting toys, bones, and bully sticks around to keep her happily occupied — and your furniture safe!



Jess hasn’t met any cats yet, but we suspect she might be curious and give chase, so dog-savvy kitties with their own safe spaces would be best. If kids are in the home, they should be a bit older and ready to keep up with Jess’s bouncy, tail-wagging energy.



If you are looking for fun, then look no further than Jess. She will have you laughing and smiling each and every day with her houndy-endless-lust-for-life! Jess can definitely fit the "Life of the Paw-ty!" role!



As part of Jess’s $300 adoption fee, she will be spayed, microchipped, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, and current on her monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives.  If you have questions about this sweet little girl, you can email  Dogteam@pawsforlifenc.org.  If you wish to adopt Jess, you can fill in an online application for her under the Adopt a Pet Tab on our
website:  www.pawsforlifenc.org.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

1. Review the description of the pet you are interested in to make sure that the information we have fits with your particular needs and desires. In most cases, the information on the website is current and gives the information that we have about the particular pet. The picture of the pet does not tell the whole story.

2. Complete the adoption application at https://pawsforlifenc.org. Please make sure that you give us as much information about yourself as you can. List all animals currently living with you including other dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, and rodents. The application needs to be complete in order to help us determine if the pet you have chosen is a good match for your home.

3. Once the application is submitted we will contact you, your references, and your vet.

4. We require a home visit prior to dog adoptions.

5. If more than one person applies, we will go with the BEST fit. If all things are equal, we go in the order the applications were received.

6. Once the home visit has been completed, you will be asked to complete an adoption agreement.

7. The adoption fee is $325 for dogs under 6 months, $300 for 6 months and older. The adoption fee is $125 for kittens under 1 year ($225 for 2 kittens), $85 for cats 1 year and older. This fee helps us to provide the necessary medical care and other needs for the pets while in foster care.

8. All Paws For Life NC pets are spayed or neutered if old enough, current on shots, micro chipped, and to our knowledge, in good health before they are adopted out. Puppies under 6 months of age will require a $100 refundable spay/neuter deposit in addition to the adoption fee and a special puppy spay/neuter agreement. Kittens under 6 months will require a $50 refundable spay/neuter deposit in addition to the adoption fee. We are all volunteers and receive no monetary compensation for our work with the pets. The adoption fee is used to help defray costs in the rescue and care of the pets.

9. Congratulations! You are on your way to having your new companion. We hope that you and your new companion share a life of love and happiness. We welcome any comments you may wish to give us about your pet at any time.
