Story
Kody is one of the most affable and friendly pups that we have met. He is friendly towards all humans and plays well with other dogs if given a slow introduction, regardless of how big they are. He is fast friends with his considerably larger foster sister (a German Shepherd) and has no problems "holding his own" when they play together. Kody is extremely well-behaved and a perfect gentleman in his crate, especially if he has something indestructible to chew on. In the short time we've had him, he's quickly learning his basic commands and improving on "loose leash" walks. While there are no children in his foster household he has been friendly, calm and interested in the children he has met at social engagements. Kody has learned to sit, watch & wait. He's housetrained and walks nicely on a leash, barring squirrel sightings or other extraordinarily tantalizing distractions. He's a champ on car trips, as he sits quietly and doesn't even get carsick on our mountain roads. Kody's perfect human(s) will be willing to take him for a decent walk and/or play outside a few times every day. A dog for all households, Kody would be equally happy with doggy sibling(s) or as an only dog. At 40 lbs, Kody is the perfect medium-sized pooch. According to our breed identifier app, he's a Carolina Dog/ Staffie mix, but his foster family sees potential tiny Boxer or a giant Chihuahua! Kody is estimated to be between 1-2 yrs old. He's been vaccinated, neutered and microchipped. Interested in a great pup to enrich your life?

Good with kids, Needs special attention, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
There is something about a senior dog that brings out the best in us. Loving an elderly pup who wants nothing more than to love and be loved is so gratifying. Meet Berry, a 15 yr old mixed breed boy who is affectionate, gentle, wise...and blind. His loss of eyesight doesn't stop this handsome fella from exploring his safe environment - in between long naps, cuddles with humans, and the occasional snack. This sweet boy shows his gratitude for pets and ear scratches by gently asking for more. And then, off for another long nap. Berry is house trained and asks to be let out to do his business. But as an older gent, he may "leak" in between potty breaks. His foster mom easily solved that fact of life by giving Berry a stylish diaper to keep him comfortable. Berry also receives daily (low cost) meds required for his advanced age, which he takes without protest. A caring benefactor has generously offered to cover the adoption fee for the loving person/family who would like to give Berry a home. Would you like to love a sweet, gentle soul during the last stage of his life? Berry will reward you with unconditional love and affection.

Meet Indie, an 11-month shepherd mix who has already dazzled us. This sleek and super smart girl has only been at AHDRNC for a few days, and she's already knocking it out of the park. After quickly learning "Sit", "Watch" and "Down", she was asking "What else ya got??" Indie is a confident, fit and very affectionate youngster. At about 40 lbs, she still enjoys a little lap time in between romps around the playground. Lean and very athletic, she would be a wonderful running, hiking or biking buddy. She's already a good leash walker and sleeps comfortably in her crate. Dog-friendly and people-loving, Indie will make some lucky active family very, very happy. Interested in adding this black beauty to your family? She'll be ready for adoption soon, so don't wait!

Meet Reese, an 11-month Border Collie/Shepherd mix who is playful, inquisitive and friendly. She has a winning smile and a shiny coat with just a hint of brindle on her legs and face. Eager to please, Reese has already learned several introductory commands ("Sit", "Wait" and "Watch") and is learning more each day. Although new to leash walking, she took to it quickly and enjoys strutting her stuff around the trails. A fit and affectionate young dog, Reese enjoys playing with her siblings and the other pups at the rescue. A lover of humans too, it doesn't take much coaxing for her to flop over for a belly rub and some personal cuddles. Lean and athletic, she would be a wonderful running, hiking or biking buddy. Reese is also crate trained and walks into her crate without protest, as she knows it means nap time or meal time! Interested in having sweet Reese join your family?
