Story
Mandy was in a crowded kill shelter with her 10 puppies when we rescued them all. All her pups have found homes but Mandy is still looking for her forever home. Mandy is a sweet girl that really wants a home of her own. She's great with other dogs but not with cats. Mandy likes to play with other dogs and is a snuggler. She's the youngest dog we have at our house and is bored with all her senior friends! She's really wants a playmate and a home to call her own. Mandy is crate trained, housebroken and fully vetted.

Story
My name is Penelope and I am a super friendly, lovable little girl. I do great with older kids, dogs of any size and can live with a patient cat. I will ignore it, but every once in a while I will get a rise out of finding it under the bed. I have a TON of personality in my little size. I love to kill a squeaky toy so I need hard toys. I can be quite energetic at times and then I just conk out like my battery died and fall asleep. I am quick and agile so I can climb a three foot fence, slip out of doors and through your feet so you better understand what I am all about. I would do best in a fenced in yard. I am a lap dog and love to sit next to you on the couch and will sleep all night through curled up next to you. I am spayed, vaccinated, heartworm negative, microchipped and come with a harness, leash and martingale collar with 6 months of heartworm and flea prevention. I just had a dental cleaning with 4 teeth removed so I am completely vetted and ready to go. Call Jill at 910-620-3783 to adopt me.   March 5, 2026, 8:05 pm

Story
Shiloh was rescued from a local shelter. She was extremely shy when we pulled her from the shelter and still can be shy when meeting new people or doing new things. She is most comfortable when she knows her surroundings. She is good with calmer, quieter kids and other dogs. She does not tolerate cats. Shiloh loves to cuddle and she's a great kisser! She will do best in a quiet structured environment. Since she doesn't like change, she never has tried to run away! A great dog for someone that works at home and is a couch potato!

Story
My name is Honey and I am as sweet as my namesake. I do great with cats, kids and dogs and I am housebroken. I weigh just 30 pounds so I am the perfect size and walk great on a leash. I am affectionate and even give kisses. I love to follow you around and be your shadow. I am super friendly with strangers and anyone I meet. I am an absolute doll! I have some crooked front teeth, but it just makes me more adorable. I can be playful at times, but then I crash on the floor and fall asleep. I sleep all night long next to you. I am spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, have been treated for heartworms and come with a supply of heartworm and flea prevention, a leash, martingale collar and walking harness. Call Jill to adopt at 910-620-3783.  March 5, 2026, 8:05 pm

Story
"There is a gentleness in her eyes that I see. I hate to see healthy, non-aggressive animals euthanized". That was the email we received about weeks ago in regards to Eleanor. She was on her last day and no other rescue had stepped up to take her. We were really her last chance. 1 week later, and here she is with us. We named her after the finest car in "Gone in 60 Seconds". And, truly, if she got off her leash, she would be gone in about 0.6 seconds! Eleanor is painfully shy and scared but lets us love on her and doesn't try to get away. She does well in a crate. She needs work..lots of it, but in her eyes, we see hope too. She is not currently for adoption but can be sent to an experienced foster home. Reach out to us via email if you are interested in fostering Eleanor. She is a diamond in the rough.
