Moose

Plott Hound Mountain Cur

Waynesville, NC

Size

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Meet Moose! He walks nicely on leash, knows many tricks, like sit and shake, and is both crate and house-trained. He’s a big fan of routine and would thrive in a home that makes time for daily walks, weekend hikes, and the occasional joyride. Moose rides great in the car and enjoys sticking his head out the window to feel the wind on his face! This big guy LOVES to play, especially a rough-and-tumble game of chase with another playful dog, who doesn't mind roughhousing. He’d be perfectly happy as your one-and-only cuddle buddy, but he’d also enjoy sharing his home with another dog who’s down to play and match his joyful energy. Moose would do best in a home with older kids who aren’t fazed by his size. He’s all love and wiggles, but there’s a lot of him to love! He would do best in a home with no cats as well. If you’re looking for a loyal, fun-loving, affectionate companion, Moose just might be your perfect match. He loves to be loved, and he can’t wait to love you right back. Moose would do best in a home and not an apartment. He absolutely loves to talk and would thrive in a space where the occasional bark isn't a problem! Moose is a big-hearted guy, but like many dogs, he can get a little stressed during big changes. Transitions, like moving into a new home, can be overwhelming for him at first. If you’re considering welcoming Moose into your life, he’ll need some patience, understanding, and a calm environment while he adjusts. The good news? He does settle in with time and support! And you won’t be doing it alone Sarge’s is more than happy to counsel and support adopters or fosters with tips, resources, and guidance to help Moose ease into your routine and home life as smoothly as possible!

Apache

German Shepherd Dog

Male, 8 yrs 5 mos

Waynesville, NC

Size

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

Details

Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Meet Apache Apache is a mellow, loyal German Shepherd with a gentle soul and a heart that opens slowly—but deeply. He may take a little time to bond, but once he knows you’re his person and he’s finally home, he’ll be right by your side, soaking up cuddles and companionship. Apache is fully house-trained, and has done well with other dogs both here at the shelter and in his temporary foster home. He’s not a high-maintenance guy—he just wants a calm, steady home where he can relax. He has shown some curiosity (and vocal opinions!) toward cats, so a cat-free home might be easiest, though with a slow and thoughtful introduction, coexisting might be possible. He would do best in a home with one or two people, without children! Like a true German Shepherd, Apache can be a bit barky, especially when alerting you to what he thinks you should know— just your classic GSD guardian instincts on display. Apache is looking for a quiet home where he can enjoy daily walks, soft beds, steady routines, and a person to lean on. If you’re patient, loving, and looking for a loyal companion who will repay your kindness with endless affection, Apache might just be your guy.

Yuki

Mixed Breed (Large)

Female, 7 yrs 2 mos

Waynesville, NC

Size

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

Details

Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Yuki is a spirited girl who loves getting outside! Hikes, nature walks, and adventures are her favorite! Don’t let her age fool you; this sweet lady still has plenty of pep in her step and enjoys a good play session. She would do wonderfully in a home with a respectful, playful dog buddy. She can be a fairly roughty player - so another dog who can handle some rough and tumble play, but can slow down between play sessions - would be best. Yuki already knows sit, knows some of her manners, and is a total cuddle bug when it’s time to slow down. Yuki would thrive in a medium-energy home! one that enjoys exploring the world but also appreciates cozy downtime together. If you’re looking for a loving companion who’s the perfect mix of adventure partner and snuggle friend, Yuki is your girl!

Story

This animal is a courtesy post, therefore they are not being rehomed by Sarges. Contact (954) 770-2602 if interested! He is really laid back and one of the calmer pups. He has such a sweet nature and comes off as a very loyal companion. He just wants to be around people all the time but also loves playing with his siblings. I think he’ll make an amazing addition to any home and loved playing with my nephews. I keep a grass pad in the puppy pen and clean it daily in hopes it’ll train them to know grass means potty area and they only use it at night. During the day they go to the bathroom outside so I’m hoping potty training should be a somewhat easy feat once adopted.

Story

This animal is a courtesy post, therefore they are not being rehomed by Sarges. Contact (954) 770-2602 if interested! He is super confident and the ringleader for the rest of the pups. He’s so sweet and high energy. He just wants to play, cuddle and eat. He loves being around people, great with kids and I think he’ll make a very loyal companion with a funny personality to boot! He also loves to bother my dog begging to play. I keep a grass pad in the puppy pen and clean it daily in hopes it’ll train them to know grass means potty area and they only use it at night.

Story

Meet Ginny! She's looking for a calm, medium to low energy home where she can enjoy peaceful walks and quiet time with her people. At about 4 years old, sweet Ginny still gets spurts of energy and would love some leisurely time outdoors! She can be a little sensitive to busy or noisy environments, so a quieter routine helps her feel her best. She is a true couch potato, who isn't able to go on strenuous hikes or runs due to having a wonky leg, that was injured previously. She has tested positive for heartworms and thrives in a home that can give her a loving and calm space while she finishes out treatment. If you are looking for a companion who would love to spend time with you as you binge your favorite series, she might be the one! The thing we love the most about Ginny is that she has a true, kind soul. She LOVES her people and will make your day with her kind demeanor and gentle snuggles. Some meet this amazing lady, she'll leave paw prints all over your heart!
