Story

Hi there! I'm Wafer, a friendly and loyal 2 year old male cattle dog mix, and I'm on the lookout for my forever family! I'm a curious and playful boy, always up for an adventure and ready to explore the world with my favorite people. With my good looks and charming personality, I'm sure to wag my way into your heart. One of my favorite things to do is show off my smarts! I'm a quick learner and always eager to please. I already know some cool tricks, and I can't wait to impress you with my cleverness. But don't be fooled by my brains - I'm also a big softie at heart. I love nothing more than snuggling up and receiving all the pets and scratches. I promise to be your loyal companion and best friend forever if you give me a chance. Don't you love my ears? I think they are one of my best features.... Did I mention I'm an athlete too? I love running, jumping, and playing fetch. I could play all day! I also get along swimmingly with my furry friends (cats and dogs), both big and small. Whether it's chasing each other around or cuddling up together, I'm a friendly and social boy who loves making new mates. So, if you're looking for a fun-loving, affectionate, and gentle companion who will keep you on your toes and fill your days with laughter and love, look no further! I'm the whole wafer-thin mint – I mean, package! I am also a smartie as I graduated from FluidK9 training and can show you my tricks. It was fun to learn new things and great to meet new dog and human friends. I totally forgot to mention I am 48 lbs of sweetness and heartworm negative, crate trained and a great dog. If interested in learning more about me, complete the application as I would love to meet you. I have a great foster mom and we are in NC. Are you interested in adopting?

Story

I adopted Bella from BARCS last July. She turned two in January. I am an older person and did not take into consideration how much energy this dog would have. I think the perfect home for Bella would be with a much younger person or a family with kids who will love her energy. She is adorable, affectionate and has had some one on one training with an experienced dog trainer and is crate trained. It breaks my heart to give her up but I know that I physically cannot keep her. She will come to you with a new crate, large dog bed, training collar, leash, large food container and her favorite stuffed dog.
