Nala is a beagle/blue heeler mix turning 7 in August and weighs about 35 pounds. She is a great companion that loves snuggling, going for walks, and playing. She would thrive as an only dog, and has shown great behavior and patience around kids when she’s the only dog present. She is house trained and crate trained. She is up to date on everything and will come with a leash, collar, e-collar (if wanted), and some waste bags. She is used to eating Iams mini chunks. Please reach out with any questions.

Story
Meet Buddy! New Best Friend 🐾 Hi, Im Buddy! That’s my name for now, but you’re welcome to rename me. I am around 3 years old and have had a bit of a journey lately. I was with my first family for a few years, but about five months ago, they gave me to a neighbor. Sadly, that person dropped me off at a random apartment complex and left me behind. Thankfully, some kind humans found me and stepped in to help. They've been caring for me ever since and made sure I stayed safe and loved. I warm up to people quickly and I get really excited when it is time to go outside or eat (hey, can you blame me?) I am house-trained and eager to please my humans. I learn routines quickly and listen well. I am good with kids and other dogs, but prefer to have all the attention. I’m neutered and all my shots are up to date. If you are looking for a loyal, cuddly, goofy companion who’s been through a lot, but has a great outlook on life then I’m your guy! Let’s meet and see if we’re a match! ❤️

Story
Havana is a five y.o. Boxer and American Staffordshire Terrier mix. She is completely house broken and crate trained. She walks well on leash and responds promptly to commands. She is quiet and well behaved inside the house (never destructive). She gets along very well with other dogs, and has never met a stranger she didn’t want to lick or get a pat on the head and a belly rub from. She will make a great companion to any loving home where she can live and exist alongside her family from day to day.

Story
I had found Bella on adoptapet and wanted to make it work with her and my younger son, who is pet-shy. Because she is WONDERFUL with people - everyone says how sweet and quiet she is. She makes people friends quickly! Unfortunately, her weight (~46 lbs) and energy are just too much for my youngest son. Bella is always excited to see me and a great pet -- crate-trained, house-trained, leash-trained. She does have some prey-drive towards squirrels, rabbits, etc and is not friendly to other dogs and so would need to be the only dog (& pet) in the home. I recieved her from another family via adoptapet about 3 months ago, and they had basically "found her in a field." They had only had her for ~6 weeks, and have no further history. She loves being outside and does well in my fenced yard (has never dug or attempted to get out). When indoors she wants to be near me and/or on the couch. She has a few chew toys but does not get into any people things. I would keep her, except for my son!

Ricardo

Chihuahua

Male, Young
Wilmington, NC
Size
(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
Details

Story
Ricardo is a very sweet boy. He loves to play with other dogs of all sizes. He is very kind and just wants to snuggle and be liked. My neighbors had him and now they have just had a new baby and so they cannot keep him anymore. I agreed to take him in and find him a new home. I can find out about his shots and microchipping today. He has been left outside on a leash for months now and I do believe he's stressed so his house training is going to need some work. Perhaps starting him off with a diaper. Poor little guy has been very neglected and needs someone who can love him and spend time with him. He will come with a crate. Please note though this neglect has not affect his wonderful personality he is very sweet and loving. My neighbor brought over there Chihuahua who was itching for a fight and he didn't go for the bait he was not aggressive he was just kind. To me that says a lot about a dog.
