He’s friendly with people, dogs, AND cats, making him the ultimate social butterfly (minus the wings… although, with his charm, he might as well fly).     Looking for a buddy who’s sweet as can be, adores life, and is ready to love you unconditionally? Then Merle is your guy. Don’t wait — apply today and scoop up this cutie before someone else does. Your new pet will require a refresher in house-training.

This provides for an easier transition into a new home, ensures the dog remains well socialized, and helps form a bond between the dog and the new family.    Adoption fees cover basic vetting, rabies (if puppy is old enough), distemper/parvo vaccinations, deworming, monthly heartworm prevention while in our care (if old enough), monthly flea/tick prevention while in our care, and transport costs. K-9 Lifesavers will also cover the cost of spay/neuter at our partner vet at 6 months of age or reimburse adopter for up to the amount of our partner vet cost should you choose to spay/neuter at your own vet.Foster Program:    Foster homes provide for the temporary care of a rescue until the dog is placed into a loving, forever home.  For more information on becoming a foster parent, and our Foster Program, visit http://www.k-9lifesavers.org/foster/ or email our Foster Coordinator at foster@k-9lifesavers.orgSPONSOR ME! Help Save Lives!    Make a tax-deductible donation today and help save a life.

Story
Buckaroo is a neutered male mountain Feist/Smooth Fox Terrier mix, born about May, 2024. He is loving, bright and adores attention. Fox Terriers are smart and trainable and require some daily exercise to live their best lives. Buckaroo weighs about 14 lbs, is neutered, and is healthy. He’s from a former breeder who passed away, but while they look like purebred Smooth Fox Terriers, we don’t have any paperwork and so they could be a mixed breed. Buckaroo will make a loving and lovable companion who also happens to be adorable.  $75 This covers the cost of spay/neuter, DHPP, Rabies, Flea, tick, heart worm check, worm treatment, and microchip. To adopt, you need to first fill out an application. Go to: https://rutherfordcountyhumanesociety.org/dog-adoption-application/ We are located in Western North Carolina.     Optional transport is weekly.  After your application is approved, we will contact you regarding cost and delivery if you so desire.January 9, 2026, 6:21 pm

Story
Meet Velma. This young momma dog and her three puppies were found abandoned on Kelly Mountain in Logan County, WV, discovered by a group of hunters far from any homes. When the hunters stopped, the dogs immediately approached them, friendly and social, leading us to believe Velma likely once had a home and that she and her puppies were intentionally left behind. Thankfully, a Good Samaritan stepped in and took the little family into her home until rescue help could be found. Because of her compassion and quick action, Velma and her pups are now safe and have settled into their local foster homes. Velma has proven to be a sweet, affectionate pup who is great with other dogs and good with kids, and has been fostered with both. She's still young-dog jumpy, so kids out of the toddler stage are probably best, but this is correctable behavior. She’s currently living as an only dog with her foster mom, Norie, soaking up all the attention. Velma recently visited the vet to get up to date on vaccinations and diagnostics and was given a clean bill of health as a young, healthy adolescent pup. Norie shared this update: “The vet visit went well. Velma rides well in the car and was great with the staff, a very good patient. She’s friendly with everyone we’ve met and really enjoys other dogs. She’s housetrained and hasn’t had a single accident in my house. She sleeps peacefully in a crate next to my bed at night. She’s OK on leash but needs more practice. She can get excited and a bit jumpy when she wants to meet another dog. Once she meets them, she does well, though not all dogs want to engage. Velma has some spunk and loves to play and chase balls, but she also knows how to settle down inside.I taught her sit in one day, so she’s very smart. She loves cuddling on the couch. Very affectionate. Can’t get enough of going outside and loves to go for walks." This sweet, more submissive girl will make a wonderful family dog or new pack member. She’s still a young pup who needs to learn her basic commands and fine-tune her leash skills, but her social skills and house manners are already excellent. Apply today!
