Daisy

American Pit Bull Terrier

Female, Adult

Carrboro, NC

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs special attention, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Daisy is very sweet and affectionate, and she has one of the funniest and quirkiest personalities I've ever seen in a dog. She is consistently fantastic with adults, but her social skills with other dogs and cats aren't great. I have never seen Daisy interact with kids, but I suspect she would do fine with them. Daisy has a heart condition that she regularly takes medication for. Rigorous exercise (i.e. extended bouts of sprinting outdoors) should generally be avoided, which is fine since she is generally a couch potato. I'm seeking a new home for Daisy for a number of reasons that all pretty much boil down to cost of living. Daisy is a delightful dog, and all I want for her is to have a stable home that can comfortably afford a dog.

Little Bear

Mutt Collie

Male, Adult

Chapel Hill, NC

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

**UPDATE** Due to my other dog's declining health, I am seeking short-term fostering (likely 3 months, possibly less) rather than rehoming for Little Bear. Little Bear is a beautiful 3 year old, 27 lb dream boy who does the best head tilts and likes to be held like a little lamb. He is mellow, snuggly, goofy, gentle, and generally quiet. He thrives around other dogs, and is wary-to-afraid of cats. It is very important to him that he be in daily contact with other dogs. Little Bear is a perfect angel and I would keep him if I could! Unfortunately, my pre-existing dog, who is blind and elderly, wants to murder him - so it is not safe or fair for Little Bear or my other dog to continue living together. Little Bear was originally rescued from a hoarding situation in VA in May 2025 and I adopted him a month later. I'm so proud of how he's flourished and adapted to living in a normal home. He is so resilient and open-hearted despite what he's been through!

Rosie

Mutt

Female, Adult

Chapel Hill, NC

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

It is with a super heavy heart that we must rehome our six year-old mixed breed rescue. She is a funny, lovable, super playful 63 pound Heinz 57 clown. She is spayed, healthy up-to-date on vaccines. She went through training as a pup and would be able to start following the commands again if repeated every day, she is very smart. She does still follow basic commands. housebroken, crate trained at night but would love to sleep with you! She LOVES to play fetch, she LOVES the water. Very treat oriented and will follow commands quickly. If there is a treat involved, she will remember how to heal on a leash for walks and could possibly be trained to be your run, buddy she is OK with medium and large dogs, she thinks small dogs are chew toys. Would do best as your sole doggy and limited time with larger dogs initially. She is a cuddler and wants to be your one and only #1! She hasn't been around cats or small children. She will make a great dog with the best loving energetic human!

Cujo

German Shepherd Dog Hound (Unknown Type)

Details

Not good with dogs, Good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

We adopted Cujo as a puppy. As he got older started acting aggressively towards our two other dogs, particularly our dog Gage. However, he does go to daycare, and they have said that he does very well with all of the dogs there. We are asking for a 100 dollar rehoming fee to ensure that he goes to a good home. Moreover, we would like to get a vet references as well.
