Story

NAME: Mr. Breakfast BREED: Pit Bull/Mystery Mix BIRTHDAY: 2011 WEIGHT: 50lbs ADOPTION FEE: $200 When we saw Mr. Breakfast on Facebook, we were drawn to more than just his goofy name. The toothless grin, chewed-up ears, crusty cataract eyes... this is just our kind of guy. We asked for a cat and a dog test from the shelter, got the green light on both, and got Mr. Breakfast the heck out of South Carolina. &#226&#128&#139 In foster care, Mr. Breakfast has been an absolute gem. He ignores the cats, plays with (and gets chomped by) the dogs, and loves all the people who come to visit him. He has done very well with house training, is crate trained (although not a fan of the crate), and relatively quiet. Mr. Breakfast uses his remaining molars to chew bones and toys, enjoys spending time in the fenced yard, and rides well in the car. We keep walks to a minimum because of his heartworm, but he does like to go for short jaunts to explore the neighborhood. &#226&#128&#139 Mr. Breakfast will need a patient and dedicated adopter to help him live his best life: GOT will pay for heartworm treatments (we are doing slow-kill because of his age and heart issues, which is just Advantage Multi each month). What this guy really is looking for is someone who can be compassionate as he adjusts to life indoors, who doesn't mind doing a little extra laundry, and who can appreciate this wonderful dog because he deserves the whole world. If you can't adopt at this time, please consider sharing or donating to help us cover the cost of Mr. Breakfast's care!October 12, 2024, 12:18 am

Story

NAME: Chickie BREED: Beagle Mix BIRTHDAY: 2012 WEIGHT: 35lbs ADOPTION FEE: $200 Chickie came to us when her owners (thankfully) surrendered her to a VA shelter. They had been keeping her in a pen outside 24 hours a day, despite their claims that she has grass allergies. What really seemed to be happening to poor Chickie was a bad flea infestation, untreated, that left her with half of her hair missing. After months of treatment and medications, her skin is healthy but it appears her hair will never grow back. We give her Apoquel for itching but she is otherwise in good overall health. &#226&#128&#139 Chickie has put her years of neglect behind her: she is happy in foster care and is a pretty easy girl. Although she is friendly and has never snapped or even growled at anyone, she is still a little head shy and would do best in a home without small children. She does very well with dogs of all sizes, but should be placed in a home without cats. What she really wants is a place where she can get a nice mix of her own space (with her favorite toy football to play with), and attention in the form of walks and snacks. Chickie is crate trained but will need a reminder course on house training. She would love a fenced yard to stretch her legs, sunbathe, and spend time with her forever family.October 12, 2024, 12:18 am

Story

ADOPT ME ONLINE: https://ophrescue.org/dogs/13161Hi, I’m Teddy, a one year old, mixed-breed pup weighing about 35 lbs. Life hasn’t always been easy for me. Found at a very young age, I showed signs of being on my own for a while. Since then, I’ve navigated through uncertainty and challenges, yearning for a safe forever home. I am timid and I would benefit from having a furry, confident, playful sibling to build my trust in people. I love to romp and play with my foster furry siblings. My foster mum says I am cute and sweet. I like my crate, I use it as a refuge when I get over whelmed. I'm quiet and I do well in my crate while foster mum is at work. Will you be part of my feel good story? If you are willing to take this journey with me apply today. NEW!! Click here to watch Teddy play - he's the speedy guy with a ball in his mouth, zooming around the yard.

Story

ADOPT ME ONLINE: https://ophrescue.org/dogs/13835Hello, I'm Dimples! Named after a golf ball's dimples, because my life's all about landing in unexpected places. I'm a young, sweet, and curious mixed breed gal, 6 months old and about 27 lbs who loves adventures, even if they lead to peculiar places. If you're looking for a partner in crime, or just someone to laugh at your golf swing, I'm your girl.About me:- doing well with potty training- crate trained and quiet in my crate- working on leash walking- can be fearful of new people & dogs- would love a dog buddy to help me gain confidence - love my people & want to be a lap dogI'm searching for…- Someone who won't leave me home alone for more than 6 hours, at least not until I am older. The older I am, the more I can stay home alone. I just don't want you to get mad at me if I have accidents or chew things I'm not supposed to when you leave me for too long. I'm a puppy, so I get bored quickly and when I'm bored I could get in trouble.- I am looking for my forever home, not my for right now home. So as I get bigger I need someone to teach me how to be the best dog I can be. I am young and still learning. You may want to teach me some new tricks like sit, stay, etc. Professional training will help me bond with you. That sounds like fun!- I saved the most important for last. I am hoping my new mom or dad will snuggle with me, play with me and love me forever and ever!This puppy is microchipped, spayed and up to date on age appropriate vaccines and monthly preventatives.
