Story
Chancey is a mixed breed dog that is approximately 1-3 years old. She was abandoned at our house, and we have been caring for her as we have tried to locate the owners. She loves to run freely, but also does well in a dog kennel. She has been sweet and friendly to my husband, son, and I. She needs a forever home, as we have other animals and are unable to keep her.

Story
Cooper is a two year old standard Golden-doodle. He is super lovable, energetic and a bit clumsy but he is the friendliest giant you will ever meet. He loves going to the dog park and playing with friends. Cooper needs a home where he is able to stretch out and run around in his own backyard. He is great with other dogs and cats. He is also good with kids but sometimes tends to forget how big he is. Cooper is not neutered and is fully house trained. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Arya

Labrador Retriever

Female, Adult
Gastonia, NC
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Arya is a wonderful dog and has been great with our older children since we adopted her, however, when we had our baby she got very anxious and guarded. She is very uneasy with babies/toddlers and has snipped at him several times. She is also good with some dogs, but not with others. She's house trained and almost never has any accidents. She's quiet and calm and loving. She's also a mixed breed that I'm not positive of, but there wasn't an option for that.

Royce

Boxer

Male, Young
Gastonia, NC
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Not good with kids, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Royce is a Boxer mix that is approximately two years old. Recently adopted from a local shelter, he is very affectionate and loves ear rubs, belly scratches, and hanging out at your feet. He has been curious and playful with our cat. Royce enjoys going on walks, playing tug, and chewing on/playing with tennis balls/other toys. Running circles in the yard is also a favorite, and he is beginning to learn how to play fetch. Royce also does well on hiking trips. The farthest he has gone is about 8 miles. He knows some basic commands: sit, down, go to bed, no, and wait—although still in training, and reinforcement is needed to improve consistency. He has dramatically improved in this area since adoption. Royce has a very loving, affectionate, and silly personality typical of a Boxer. He would likely make a great companion dog for an adult or family with older members. Royce would not be well-suited in a home with young or small children however.

Good with kids,
Story
This precious boy was abandoned at our cemetery. He is very mild mannered, rarely barks, is phenomenal with children. He does NOT like squeaky toys, they make him act up. He does well off leash and loves cuddles. We would keep him but we cannot since it is a place of business. This is an urgent request as the manager is going to send him to a shelter on Wednesday, September 25th.
