Story
Meet Walter!Walter is a sweet, affectionate dog who absolutely loves his people. He loves cuddling, sitting in your lap or beside you, and sleeping next to you at night. He is house trained and leash trained with a Gentle Leader, and he can also be taught to sleep happily in his own dog bed.Walter does have some separation anxiety and would thrive in a home where someone is around much of the day, such as a work-from-home or stay-at-home household. He loves attention and simply wants to be near his person.Walter currently lives with two older dogs, but recent conflicts with one of the dogs have made it necessary to keep them separated. After a lot of thought, his family has decided that Walter would be happiest as the only pet in the home, where he can receive the individual attention and companionship he loves.Walter has not had much experience around children, so an adult-only home would be preferred.He is truly a loving, gentle companion with so much affection to give.

Story
Bear the SWEETHEART!! Estimated Birthday: 11/3/25 Estimated Size: Medium to Large Bear is the male runt from a litter of 8. He currently weighs 18 lbs. He is very sweet and loving! His mama babied him a little more than the others. As a result, he is very loving but also seems to be very humble. He shows demure confidence in meeting new people and visiting new environments. He is a snuggle bug, and loves to be babied! He is a very very sweet boy. Most of the time quiet and bashful, but has already began finding his voice. Loves to be held and petted more than anything, but also more than happy to be active and playing games. LOVES playing in the water. Absolute cuddle bug and he is so precious. (He was mommas boy when they were tiny pups). Bear is in need of a foster home ASAP!! You provide the love, we will continue to provide food, vet care, preventative meds, and supplies. All American Mix. His mama appears to be a Boxer mix. We think they may potentially have some pitbull terrier, lab, hound. Bear is colored more like a Border Collie, and has soft fuzzy hair. We try to limit our travel time for home visits to a two-hour driving range (about 75 miles) from Morganton, NC. Please visit http://www.abetterlifeanimalrescue.com/adopt-a-pet.html for an adoption application, or call 828-612-2951.
