Story
This pup is eligible for our Test the Couch program — a 7-day trial adoption to see if your home (and your couch) is the perfect fit. Learn more  https://pipsrescue.org/test-the-couch/ Meet Iris, a sweet, snuggly, and old soul who is ready to retire into her dream home. She’s all about the simple pleasures in life like leisurely walks, expert level naps, and maximum coziness. Iris is affectionate, loyal, and deeply devoted to her person. She lives for attention, couch cuddles, and strategically placing herself at your feet while you work so you never forget she’s there. She is an excellent car ride companion and enjoys getting out for adventures, though she can occasionally put a little extra enthusiasm into the leash. At home, she is a professional snoozer and odds are high you will find her exactly where you left her, usually on the couch. When it comes to other dogs, Iris knows what she likes. She requires slow, thoughtful introductions and prefers older, neutral males or being your one and only. Dominant female dogs need not apply. She can coexist with a younger neutral female with management, but in her heart she prefers calm, middle aged or senior companions. Puppies are tolerated in short doses, but she has officially entered her “get off my lawn” era and has no interest in raising the neighborhood hooligans. Because Iris is a bit older and sometimes likes her personal space respected, a home with kids over 10 is recommended. She is sweet and loving, but sore joints and grabby hands are not her idea of a good time. Iris is firmly anti crate and would like that known. She does just fine left out or in a dog safe room. Her biggest temptations include bathroom trash cans, unattended dirty laundry, and food left on low tables. Counters and dining tables are safe. She will not chew toys, Legos, or stuffed animals. Her true hobbies are napping and quietly supervising household activities. She comes with some endearing quirks. A bag of dog food left on the floor is suspicious and will be guarded. Put that same food in a bin and all is right with the world. At night, Iris sometimes hears very important things, possibly a squirrel sneezing or a leaf thinking too loudly, and feels the need to report it. A box fan or white noise machine helps her sleep peacefully. Iris tolerates baths and nail trims like a champ, though she can be a little sensitive about her ears. She is quirky, loving, loyal, and bonds deeply with her people. Iris is looking for a calm, understanding home that appreciates a seasoned dog with opinions, boundaries, and a whole lot of love to give. If you are searching for a devoted companion who wants nothing more than to nap near you, supervise your life, and be adored in return, Iris might just be your girl. ##2285665##

Story
Omena’s beauty will stop you in your tracks. It’s not just her white‑and‑brown coat and her gorgeous face, but the softness in her expression and the tenderness in her eyes that makes this boxer mix a true beauty. At 49 pounds, Omena carries herself with a gentle curiosity, wanting to meet new dog friends and explore the world, even if she’s still a little shy as she figures things out. She’s done the hard work of raising puppies, and now it’s finally her turn. Omena is ready to find a forever family who will give her the love, attention, and stability she deserves. Her soulful brown eyes convey the bigness of her heart, her sweet spirit, and her quiet hope for a life where she can feel safe, adored, and included. She does well with other dogs and has a nice medium energy level, meaning she will walk with you but is happy to sleep in just as well! If you’re looking for a tender, loving companion who’s ready to blossom now that her mothering days are behind her, Omena is waiting with her gentle curiosity and her beautiful, open heart. Meet her today! **Hiking feedback: " Omena was an absolutely lovely girl. Interacted with all the other dogs well, seemed happy to be with the puppies! Does decent on the leash. Knows how to sit and was more than happy to show that off for some cookies! *Sleepover feedback: "Miss Omena is the sweetest pup ever! She is a very polite house guest and fell right into the comfort of being in a home. She loves to play with toys and loves to snuggle. She will do anything to nuzzle her head on your lap. She played very well with my high energy dog and had a good balance between playing with my dog, toys and sleeping. She doesn’t make a peep at the vacuum or when someone knocks on the door. She walks pretty well on a leash (she is strong!), and loves to try and say hi to anyone walking by! She is a goofy boxer and will make you laugh by rolling around on the floor. She slept perfect in her crate over night and went in without hesitation. *Additional feedback: "Omena is very smart, sweet and happy to meet everyone. She walks surprisingly good on a leash and is fully house-trained. During her stay, she didn’t bark at other dogs or noises and never seemed anxious. She loved playing with our dog and kept trying to get him to play even after he was tired. She also enjoyed toys and slept with us without any incidents.

Story
(DOB 11/24/2023) Winston is a happy-go-lucky, fun-loving pup who lives life at full speed and with a huge smile on his face! This active, playful boy is always ready for his next adventure...whatever that may be; a game of fetch with his favorite kid, a splash in the water, or a full-on zoomie session around the yard. If you’re looking for a dog who will keep you laughing and on your toes, Winston is your guy. Winston absolutely thrives on playtime and wants a fur-ever home with another energetic dog to keep him company and help burn off all that playful energy. This smart boy has a silly streak a mile wide; he loves to play “keep away” and will proudly parade his toys around, hoping you’ll join in the chase. He adores kids and does wonderfully with other dogs, happily showing off his goofy, good-natured personality to everyone he meets. (He hasn’t been around cats, so we aren't sure about that, yet.) Winston says YES to all treats. Which makes training a fun and rewarding experience. The good news? Winston already has a great foundation because he’s house trained, crate trained, and walks nicely on a leash. So keep up is daily learning to build a wonderful young, adult dog with amazing manners! Because of his athleticism and enthusiasm, Winston would do best in a home with a fenced (5ft+) yard where he can safely run and play. He can be quite the jumper when he’s feeling determined, so a secure setup and supervision are important to keep him safe and happy. And while Winston is known for his high-energy antics, he does have a softer side too. Every now and then, he’ll slow things down, plop right on top of you, and shower you with kisses and paw taps just to remind you how much he loves you. It’s the perfect balance of spunky and sweet. If you are ready for the very best of both worlds, then this playful, affectionate, and endlessly entertaining companion, Winston is ready to bring the fun and the cuddles right into your home! As part of Winston’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 Winston, you can complete an application online for him under the Adopt a Pet Tab on our website: www.pawsforlifenc.org. ##2695840##

Story
(DOB 07/31/2021) Nash is heartworm positive, but do not let that stop you from adopting him. He is available for adoption within a 1-hour radius of Wake Forest, NC so he can receive his treatment, which the rescue will cover the expenses for when it is time. And don't worry, our rescue will guide you through the process. Meet Nash—your sweet, squishy, slightly Eeyore-ish lover boy!  Nash is not your usual pup. He may be young, but this boy has the soul of a much older gentleman. He’s wonderfully laid-back, loves his people and is perfectly content to hang out nearby, soaking up attention. He’s not particularly interested in what the other animals are doing and is happy to do his own thing. In fact, “lazy” may be one of his favorite words! When Nash does decide it’s time for fun, he enjoys a good game of tug-of-war and absolutely LOVES his plush toys. Of course, loving plushies means they sometimes meet an unfortunate fate; Nash is determined to discover what’s inside every single one! His other signature move is the "Boxer paw". Want attention? Paw. Want to play? Paw. Want some love? You guessed it…PAW! Nash is a sweet, affectionate boy who enjoys being with his people and has a gentle, easygoing personality. He is fully house trained and crate trained, making him a pretty easy guy to have around. He’s also wonderfully content to keep himself entertained and doesn’t need to be the center of attention every minute. A fenced yard would be ideal for Nash because he currently prefers to do his business off-leash and isn’t quite convinced that potty time should happen while attached to one! With some patient leash training and a little encouragement, he may absolutely learn that going potty on leash is part of the deal. If your idea of the perfect dog is a sweet, goofy, low-key cuddle buddy with occasional bursts of tug-of-war energy and a serious plush-toy demolition hobby, Nash may be your guy. He’s an old soul in a young dog’s body, and he’s ready to paw his way right into your heart! As part of Nash’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 Nash, you can complete an application online for him under the Adopt a Pet Tab on our website: www.pawsforlifenc.org. ##2826132##

Story
(DOB 09/01/2025) Rossi is a handsome, just-the-right-sized guy with a heart as big as his zoomies! He has that sleek, shiny black coat that sparkles in the sun. Rossi has learned that every stranger isn't very scary, just give him a few minutes and add another dog to the picture and he’s suddenly ready to make friends! He LOVES dogs and has never met one he didn’t like. Another 4-legged, fun friend in his forever home is exctly what this cutie is looking for!  His ideal home has a place to burn off his zoomies and a fenced yard would be fantastic, but a friend’s yard, daycare, or even a big carpeted house will do! He isn't picky about his playtime. Rossi is a great car rider and a total good boy at home. He can be trusted to hang out while you work and is perfectly happy to nap. He’s still working on his manners and getting his potty schedule figured out, but he’s coming along! With tons of energy, he’d thrive with another high-energy dog buddy and/or an athletic family who enjoys long walks, hikes, runs, or epic games of fetch. Doggy daycare? Yes please — that sounds like his kind of party. If you’re ready for an active sidekick with a heart of gold and springs for legs, this puppy might just be your perfect match. Rossi could easily be your future cardio partner, cuddle bug, and resident goofball — all rolled into one VERY good boy.  As part of Rossi’s $325 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.
