Story
Lovey – The Snuggle Queen. Meet Lovey, a gentle soul who has already overcome so much in her young life. Rescued from a construction site where she was abandoned and absolutely terrified, Lovey found comfort in the kindness of a stranger who cared for her until our team could step in and offer her a safe haven.

Now, at just 5 to 6 months old and weighing 23 pounds, Lovey is blossoming into a sweet, affectionate companion. She may be shy at first, but her gentle demeanor and loving nature shine through once she feels safe.

Lovey gets along beautifully with other dogs and is eager to learn about the joys of a loving home. Every day, she grows more confident, discovering that the world can be full of kindness. With patience and gentle encouragement, Lovey will continue to thrive and show her new family just how wonderful life can be when shared with a loyal friend.

Lovey is more than ready, and so deserving, to share her love with a forever family full of love and giggles.

Meet Dewey, a 3-month-old baby boy with a heartbreaking start and the sweetest little heart. Dewey and his brothers Huey and Louie were found on a highway in Puerto Rico after his momma and two other siblings were tragically killed. Left behind, scared and alone, this tiny boy somehow survived. Despite everything, Dewey is incredibly curious, happy, and loving. He’s great with cats, dogs, and kids, and like any puppy, he’s still working on potty training. Dewey is currently in Puerto Rico but can be transported anywhere along the East Coast. After losing everything, Dewey is still choosing love — now he just needs someone to choose him back.

Story
It is time for Pongo to find a family to call his own - this boy is simply amazing and don't let him being deaf hold you back - I always say that deaf dogs are some of the smartest dogs and he is indeed a very smart boy. Pongo came to us in September with a fractured leg that required a specialist to repair and now you would never know anything every happened to him - of course Dr. Crouch and his staff did an amazing job - Pongo was not to happy about the strict crate rest for 8 weeks - but we managed and then it was time to neuter him and he did great for that as well. Pongo is 8 months old and weighs 40 pounds - we do not believe he will get much bigger - he is an Aussie Mix with those ice blue eyes and again he is deaf. We would prefer a fenced in yard for him as he loves to run his zoomies outside. Pongo does great with other dogs and is currently not fostered with cats - while he was recovering from his orthopedic surgery he was fostered with cats but because he was not allowed to roam freely due to healing , he never had many interactions with them - he acted curious about them but never showed any signs of aggression - this boy loves to play ball and actually loves all his toys - he is still a puppy and does have a lot of energy. His one quirk - if you want to call it that - is he can't be kenneled in a wire crate - he will chew his way out - an airline crate or impact crate is needed as we do recommend crating him if you work or leave the house for a bit as he is a puppy and will look for something to get into - he whines a little when first crated but quits quickly as he realizes he has toys in there. He is a HUGE people dog and loves every single person he meets. He is a curious boy which is not uncommon for deaf dogs - he does great on a leash and is house trained and crate trained. Pongo is current on his core vaccines, has had a full bloodwork panel done, current on heartworm prevention and flea/tick prevention , dewormed, neutered and microchipped. His adoption fee is $250.00 As a reminder all of our dogs are in private foster homes throughout Western North Carolina and Upstate South Carolina - we do not have a facility and we do not board our dogs - the first step in our adoption process is filling out our adoption application which can be found on our website www.boxerbuttsandothermutts.org - once the application is received and reviewed (if there are other animals in the home we do vet references and require all animals in the home to be spayed/neutered - unless there is a medical reason they can't be - up to date on vaccines and current on monthly heartworm prevention ) and then the foster will get in touch with the potential adopter - if both parties feel like it could be a good fit - we would set up a meet and greet - we never do adoptions on the spot - we do a 7-14 day trial run before finalizing any adoption to make sure it is the right fit for the dog and the family Let's find this amazing boy the perfect forever home - he is so deserving and is going to bring a lot of smiles and happiness to some very lucky family

Story
Mattux is a very energetic senior. He loves to be outside, run and play and would do well with a fenced in yard (we live in an apartment). He is food aggressive and will bite if you go near his food bowl while he is eating (this would include other animals and kids too). He has several toys, sweaters, a fold-able metal crate (I use when traveling only), about 10 pounds of food, leash, and grooming tools that will go with him. He will want to sleep with you, but you can limit him to his own bed too. He has a heart murmur, but does not have any symptoms of heart disease and does not take any medication. He has arthritis in his back right knee and takes a glucosamine supplement daily (bottle of 200 comes with him too.) He is not on any heart worm or flea prevention and has done well. I adopted him from a family in my church when he was 10 (the daughter/owner went to college). My financial income has recently decreased making it necessary that I find him another home.
