My story

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

Meet Espresso — the sweetest little shot of joy you could ask for. This handsome guy wandered onto someone’s property one day, politely introduced himself to their dogs and their kids, and decided everybody there was his new best friend. We thought for sure someone would come looking for him… but no one ever did.

So now Espresso is ready to start again — this time with a family who sees just how special he is.

He’s about 9 months old, already neutered, and well on his way to being the kind of dog that just fits perfectly into family life. He does great on leash, is learning his basic manners like a champ, and has the happiest, friendliest personality. If you’re looking for a dog who loves people, kids, and other pups — this is your boy.

Espresso LOVES to run, play, explore, and zoom around with that goofy puppy energy. A fenced yard would be a bonus for him to get his wiggles out, and another dog friend in the home would just make his heart burst with joy.

He’s fun. He’s affectionate. He’s social.
He’s the kind of dog that makes every day feel a little lighter.

If you’ve been wanting a companion who will love your family fiercely, greet every morning like it’s the best day ever, and happily follow you anywhere — come meet Espresso. He’s ready to pour all his love into someone’s home.Puppies 6 months and under are typically $200 and dogs from 7 months to 6 years are typically $100.00. The adoption fee may be higher or lower than stated however, and is dependent on many factors including age, behavior, medical condition and demand. All dogs 7 years and older are free under our Saving Seniors program. We frequently run discount specials and occasionally a dog will be more than the stated fee.

Most cats and kittens are $35.00, however there may be instances in which the fee is higher or lower, due to age, behavior, medical condition or demand. With felines, we always have an "Adopt one, bring another one home for free" adoption special!

More about this shelter

The Yancey Humane Society & Animal Shelter is a 501 (c) (3) non-profit corporation located in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina, just 30 miles northeast of Asheville. We take all animals brought to us: strays, ferals, dogs, cats, and also, personal pets on a case by case basis. We provide a loving temporary home until they can be placed in a permanent home. We are not a "no kill" shelter, however, we do not euthanise for time nor space. We treat all animals as individuals and temperament test them for adoptability. This way, no one slips through the system, and we know each and every personality in the house. So, if you are looking for a pet, we can help match you with the perfect friend who will fit your lifestyle.
