My personality

My story

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

Meet Train – The Bestest Boy Looking for a New Beginning

Location: Wilmington, NC
Foster or Adopter Needed

Hi friends! My name is Train and I’m looking for a soft place to land ?. My sweet elderly dad has to move and sadly, I can’t go with him. He rescued me after my former owner passed away — I had been living outside in a pen. He gave me love, and now RescueConnect is trying to help me find a new family or foster to keep me safe and happy.

I’m about 12 or 13 years old and weigh around 70 lbs of pure love. I’m a laid-back, gentle guy who enjoys:

Naps in the sun

Hanging with other dogs (and I’m cool with cats too!)

Going on easygoing walks

Being sweet and calm around children

I’m crate trained, easygoing, and recently finished heartworm treatment — I’ve already tested negative and am feeling great!
I really am the best boy — friendly, gentle, and just looking for love. My biggest wish is to find a forever family this time... or even a temporary foster home.

Could I crash on your couch for a while?

Thank you for helping me find my happily ever after.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Once the adoption application is received, a home visit will be set up. If that goes well and is approved, then a vet check is completed (if the applicant has recently owned an animal, if not, two professional references will be required). Once both of those are approved, then the adoption fee will need to be paid.
