Story
Kai is a Golden Rottweiler mix born on December 1, 2023. His mother was a Golden Retriever who got pregnant unexpectedly according to her owners. She had 9 puppies, Kai was the only one with his markings. Truthfully, the father’s breed is unknown, but has been assumed by the vet based off his markings. He is a rambunctious, playful, loving, cuddly, and energetic boy. He prefers to be around his humans as much as possible. He loves to run, play, fetch, and goes “bananas” for treats. He knows commands of sitting and waiting until his food bowls & water bowls are full. He’s been trained not to get on the furniture & does not sleep in bed with us. He is crate trained. My husband and I are rehoming Kai because we have a 12 year old female dog who just is not tolerating having a puppy around. She’s at an age where she just would rather lounge around and be a lone wolf. Also, my husband and I have had job changes & are unable to devote the time & attention he needs.

Story
We got Nyla in 2019. She has never been a house dog but is crate trained. She loves to play and run around. Within the last 4.5 yrs that we have had her, she has no history of bites. We are starting to travel a lot and the kids are getting older with more responsibilities and we just want her to go to a family that will be able to spend more time with her and show her the love that she deserves. We do love her and will miss her but she would benefit more from a family that has the time and patience.

Story
I got Beau 6 years ago from a breeder in High Point at birth. He is 6 years old and full of life. We live in a neighborhood with a small backyard where he stays at. He is an extremely playful and loving dog. He just wants to lick and love on everybody. We recently have a new baby and between the baby and work I am not able to spend much time with him, and my wife is not a huge dog person. I want him to have someone who can love on him more and play with him. He is full of energy and loves to run. He is registered, and has an incredible pedigree with numerous field trial dogs is his lineage. He's been around kids a couple times and seemed to be great with them. I feel like there is a home out there where he can get more love and attention.

Bambi came to us when her owner was evicted.  She is a wonderful dog, but sometimes does get nervous with new people.  She is low energy and is very loving with her family.  Please give her a chance and see how sweet she is.  Bambi is housetrained and gentle and loves to cuddle!  ##1227982##

Quavo seems like a very happy dog.  This 8 year old boy was adopted in 2016 but ended up back at the shelter as a stray this past September.  He seems great with other dogs, friendly with people, and has a very gentle personality.  Plus he smiles a lot!  Quavo is really a great dog. ##1838602##
