Story
I have been caring for Bella for the past six months due to the death of her owner. I am disabled and having a tough time providing for Bella. Bella is now in a small encloser and needs a large fenced yard to run and play in. She was also a house dog with the previous owner, but I am unable to bring her indoors because of my pets. Bella would be happiest with a mature single person or couple. Bella is a very loving dog, but requires lots of attention.

Story
Piper was adopted originally from the wake county SPCA at 8 weeks. She is 5 years old and 60 pounds of pure love and joy! Piper is a loving dog and gets along with everyone, including children. Piper is not a fan of cats. However, Piper has skin allergies that require maintenance and attention. Piper also has a torn ligament on her right leg that she has compensated well for without surgery. Im a single mom just trying to make ends meet and i can no longer give piper the love and attention she deserves!!

Story
Trixie is very affectionate and likes to give lots of kisses. She is a very wiggly girl! She likes to be close to her Humans and therefore, wherever you are, you’ll likely find her curled up close asleep. She recently learned how to climb stairs! Yay! But give her time as her little legs only go so fast. She is also learning commands such as “sit” and “come here”. With daily practice, she’ll be a pro in no time! She likes to be the center of attention so she will do best in a home where she is the only dog or where the other dog(s) don’t require a lot of attention. She gets nervous when left alone without her Humans and might have a potty accident. This will require someone with patience while she gets acclimated into her forever home. Trixie prefers to roam about so time in the kennel should be kept at a minimum and only if needed. Trixie will make a great life-long pet for someone who likes to cuddle and desires a best friend!
