My story

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

(DOB 11/20/2024) Butter Bean (BB) is heartworm positive, but please don't let that stop you from adopting him.  He is a loving boy that deserves a loving home and the rescue will cover his treatment.  For this reason, he is available for adoption within a 1 hour radius of Wake Forest, NC so he can receive the treatent at our partner veterinarian.  We will guide you through the process.



If you’re looking for a fun-loving, go-go-go kind of companion, Butter Bean might just be your perfect match.



Butter Bean is a young, energetic, and very athletic boy who thrives on activity and connection. He would do best in an active home with a family who enjoys long walks, hikes, or backyard play sessions. Fetch (or chase!) in a securely fenced yard is one of his favorite pastimes, and he’s happiest when he gets both physical exercise and quality time with his people.



He’s dog-friendly and would be thrilled to have another playful canine friend in the home. That said, Butter Bean could also shine as an only dog in a work-from-home or stay-at-home setup, as long as he isn’t left alone for long stretches. If he’s your one and only, doggy daycare would be a fantastic outlet for his energy and social side.



Butter Bean isn’t a big fan of being crated, but he does tolerate it when needed. He appears to be house-trained as long as he’s shown where to go and kept on a consistent routine. He’s also super food-motivated, which makes training a fun and rewarding experience for everyone involved. His leash skills are decent now, and he’s eager to keep learning right alongside you.



Butter Bean is the kind of dog who will keep you moving, make you laugh, and fill your days with joy. If you’re ready for an active, affectionate companion who just wants to be part of your world, Butter Bean is ready to meet you.



As part of Butter Bean’s $300 adoption fee, he will be neutered, microchipped, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, and current on his monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives. If you have questions about this sweet pup, you can email: Dogteam@pawsforlifenc.org. If you wish to adopt Butter Bean, you can fill out an online application for him 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.
