Story
Calypso came to us pregnant and ready to deliver. She was undernourished and despite that, delivered 9 healthy puppies in our care. Calypso is an extremely sweet and kind pup and an excellent Mama to her puppies. She is heartworm positive and our rescue covers all expenses. She can go to someone as a foster or a foster to adopt (which will be quite awhile as she needs treated and spay still). We don't know how she is with other pups as she can't be introduced yet BUT we don't anticipate any issues with her. Available only in New Hanover County (NC) due to medical needs

Story
Prince was my best friend for the last 8 years, and my service dog for the last 6 years, throughout high school and college—he even lived in a college dorm with me! I just had a baby 3 months ago and am unable to provide him the time and energy he deserves, especially as my animal allergies have worsened postpartum.He is completely house-trained and loves his sleep, but is also eager to run and play. Thanks to his service background, he is incredibly smart and well-mannered. He knows how to sit, lay, heel, and perform deep pressure therapy. He loves going out to stores and restaurants and stays completely silent and relaxed in his dog stroller. The only everyday quirk he has is that he will bark when the doorbell rings or if someone knocks at the door.

Story
I’ve had midnight since he was 7 weeks old. He’s now 7 years old. He’s an amazing dog, great companion, extremely smart and loves cuddles. I live in a 2 bedroom apartment with 2 other people and my almost 2 year old son. Midnight just does not have the space he deserves. Being that I have a child now, my time is limited to midnight and that isn’t fair to him. I want him to be able to get the exercise and space he deserves.

I’m looking to rehome my sweet girl, Gracie, because I’m out of town a lot and I’ve realized that I’m not able to give her the active lifestyle and attention she deserves. Gracie is a 5-year-old American Staffordshire Terrier who has so much love to give and thrives on companionship. This has been the hardest decision I’ve ever made, but I love her enough to recognize that she deserves more than I’m currently able to provide.Gracie is:• 5 years old (Birthday: December 17)• A lover of being outside and exploring• Fond of going on walks• Happy spending time with her people• A very sweet girl with so much love to giveI’m looking for someone who will truly make her part of their family, give her plenty of exercise and outdoor time, and love her for the sweet girl she is.

Story
We adopted Tommy because previous owners did not have big yard. The reason we want to find him another forever home is because we’re older and have very this skin and Tommy accidentally scratches us and we both bleed because we’re on blood thinners. He’s SO LOVING AND WELL BEHAVED!! Sheds a lot, expected for that breed. He’s just too big for us older folks. Breaks our hearts, want to find him a very loving FOREVER HOME for him!
