Story
Meet Phoenix! This is a big man in a little package. He is 4 yrs and 9 Lbs. He came to us riddled with anxiety and would chew on his tail for comfort. Now Phoenix is rising out of the ashes. He is crate and house trained. Phoenix is what we call a rattlesnake, but for that we can forgive him. He loves to play and is superb on leash. Phoenix would thrive in a quiet household and is comfortable to be left alone for several hours. Another confident dog would be a plus but not required. Phoenix is neutered and up-to-date on vaccines. The adoption fee for this dog is $425 which includes routine vetting and spay/neuter. PetConnect Rescue cannot guarantee the exact breed of any animal in our care. The breed listed is based on any background we may have been provided, and the general appearance of the animal at the time they enter our system.

Meet Angel the Cuddly Chihuahua mix. She is 3 years old, and 8 lbs. Angel may be small, but she's mighty! This cuddly pup is always by your side, ready for lap time or snuggles on the couch. While she loves people best, she's friendly with other dogs too. Angel is house-trained and learning all about leash walking. She enjoys soft foods; chicken is her favorite treat. If you're looking for a loyal companion who's small but fierce, Angel is your girl! Angel is spayed and up-to-date on vaccines. The adoption fee for this dog is $425 which includes routine vetting and spay/neuter. PetConnect Rescue cannot guarantee the exact breed of any animal in our care.

Story
I have a second video on the rescue website. My name is Chichi! I was born 11/1. I currently weigh 6 pounds.(2/16). I am fostered in Mount Airy, North Carolina, but easy, affordable transportation is available. I am a fun loving, happy little girl! I love to play with toys, other dogs, or anything that I can find on the floor or ground. The rescue is not sure how I am with cats because they don’t have any. I may bark at one, but I’m certainly not big enough to hurt one though. I love to be with people and will follow my foster all over the house. One of my favorite things to do is take long naps snuggled up in her lap. My foster is in a wheelchair and I have learned to stay clear of it. My ears are just starting to stand up. They were not standing up in my pictures/videos yet. Those were taken mid February. I am a pretty energetic little girl, so I will need lots of toys to keep me busy. I would love to have a little playmate even more! I will bring lots of entertainment. and lots of love to my new family. I am ready and waiting to go to my new forever home! I have been to the veterinarian, Been dewormed, and have had two puppy shots. My records will accompany me. Email is the best method of contact. Applications can be found on the rescue website. Carolinacanine rescue nc.com Once an application is approved, the foster ‘s phone number will be provided so you can learn more about me before making an adoption decision.

Story
Male, approx. 5 years old, 12.6 lbs. Part of Bonded Pair with Harper. Personality: Gentle, goofy/funny, easygoing, affectionate, shy, quiet, adaptable, snuggler, timid/fearful, and smart. CALLING ALL SNUGGLERS!!! I'm Bosley - one member of the Bosley/Harper duo, and I am looking for a Lap of Love for my brother Harper and me. We are both so small that together we are still smaller than one medium dog! So kinda like a BOGO! I have been told I am the shy brother, and that is probably true. It takes me a little longer to relax around new people but with a bit of time, I'd love to snuggle in your lap. Don't tell Harper, but I am the better listener. That trait, plus my love of food, will probably make me ready to learn! I LOVE to go on walks with Harper and get in all the sniffs I possibly can. We make a good walking team. At home, I am quiet and rarely bark, content knowing that you and Harper are close. While I love a great lap, I am not overly needy. I absolutely love to be brushed, and will happily melt into your lap for some R&R brushing time. Right now, Harper and I are staying in a house with two other dogs, and we all get along fabulously - sharing laps and naps. I used to share space with three feline friends and don't really pay cats any mind. Harper and I are both scared by sudden noises and would prefer a home in a quiet neighborhood without the unpredictable nature of young children. Come meet Harper and me: we are a bonded pair and need to find a home together. Bring your lap and let's get to know one another! We are eager to meet you and share snuggles, laughs, and walks together. ________________________________________________________________________ If you are interested in meeting a dog or cat, we require an adoption application.

male, approx. 5 years old,12 lbs . Part of Bonded Pair with Bosley. Personality: Loyal, snuggler, playful, easygoing, gentle, goofy/funny, affectionate, calm, smart, and eager-to-please. CALLING ALL SNUGGLERS!!! Harper here! My brother Bosley and I are looking for a Lap of Love where we can snuggle and bring you joy. We are both so small that when taken together, we are still smaller than one medium dog! So, we're kinda like a BOGO! I am told that I am the Goofy brother, but I disagree. My tongue may stick out at all times but I like to think that only makes me more lovable. I am so easily pleased that all you need to do is sit down, and I will be right there next to you. I will happily show you my belly for unlimited belly rubs and may even do a little dance if I sense I'm about to be the object of your affection. I love the sunshine and resting in a sunny spot working on my suntan, whether inside or in the garden. I also enjoy walking on my leash and sniffing ALL of the sniffs. Treats are the best, and I am hoping that will motivate my new human to work on training with me. So far I know my name, will come when called, and am working on "sit. Bosley and I are looking for a quiet neighborhood in an adults only home. My brother Bosley and I get along famously with the resident dogs in our foster home. Cats are a little scary, but I'd be game to share a home with them. I'm making good progress on going potty outside and while I will sleep in a crate, I'd sure love to snuggle with you if you will let me! Apply to come meet Bosley and me. (We are a bonded pair who must be adopted together.) Bring your lap and let's get to know one another. We can't wait to hang out together and share snuggles, laughs, and walks. ________________________________________________________________________ If you are interested in meeting a dog or cat, we require an adoption application.
