🚨 URGENT – FINN NEEDS A HERO NOW 🚨 Finn came to the shelter as a stray, and the shelter has been incredibly scary for him. He’s overwhelmed and frightened in the kennel, but despite his fear, Finn is so loving and gentle. 🐾 Finn’s highlights: • Stray • Very scared in the shelter environment • Loves people and seeks comfort • Walks well on a leash • Tries to climb into your lap for reassurance • Has some hair loss and scabbing on his back — nothing a few good baths and TLC can’t fix Finn is a sensitive boy who just wants to feel safe again. The shelter is no place for him, and his fear puts his life at immediate risk. 🙏 URGENTLY needs HELP. Please help save Finn’s life by sharing or stepping up before it’s too late. He doesn’t need perfection — he needs kindness and a chance. 💔🐾 PLEASE HELP TEXT KAREN 4136298152

Story
🚨 URGENT – HOME NEEDED BY 12/30 🚨 Meet Ellie Ellie was rescued from the side of the road in Alamance County in February after being dumped. After days of kind people keeping her safe, she was finally secured and has been with me ever since. She has proven to be an incredibly loyal dog. Ellie is about 7 years old, spayed, completed heartworm treatment, and is up to date on vaccines through Feb 2026. Due to major life changes and an upcoming move, I can no longer give Ellie the time, stability, and space her breed needs. She is not adjusting well, and this decision is heartbreaking. Ellie has lived with children (under 1–11), other dogs, and has been exposed to barn cats. She needs a calm, stable home, room to run, and an experienced owner. ⏰ We must find her a home by 12/30 to avoid shelter surrender. PLEASE HELP TEXT KAREN 4136298152

Story
Percy was found being dumped in a local park. She is very loyal, loving, tolerant with children but she is protective and a little territorial sometimes so best with older children who can respect her boundaries. Alpha female/ dog aggressive in certain cases/ needs case by case with dog homes... Overall she is really fantastic. My only concern for her is that she has been growling sometimes when my son walks past her BUT this is only as a warning - She tolerates him incredibly, she will let him dump his toys all over her and play on her but she really has no desire to actually play with him at all. She just wants loves and hugs from my husband and then she retreats and his pretty much a lazy dog when she's inside. Outdoors, she runs very fast. She loves to chase butterflies and dragonflies, and she is leash trained. Off a leash in a controlled environment, she will also return with you and not run away. I have yet to attempt to take her to a dog park, but my husband took her to the park jogging and she jogged around the whole thing with him off of a leash, he said she ran into the woods a few times and came back out right back with him.And then hopped right back in the car. My only real concern with her. Is she has some type of anxiety? After a few instances, we realized she definitely was abused. Because she is scared. If you raise an object in your hand for any reason she cowers... Also, she is absolutely terrified of the thunder and rain. I know that's not short, but hopefully enough for you to gather a few things to put about her. Does not do good with cats. If you’re interested please message or call Kelly at (843) 625-9920! Located in SC and will transport for foster or forever home!

Story
This handsome young GSD mix named Benny narrowly escaped euthanasia at an overcrowded shelter. He was brought in after he suffered a foot injury (possibly hit by a bike or car). He ended up with a bone infection in his foot which has now been treated by the vet and is healing nicely. He should be out of the cast in about 2 weeks and he's feeling great. Benny is a happy dog, is very playful and good with people. We have not been able to test him with kids or other dogs or cats due to the injury. He is in a very temporary foster home and we need to find him a forever home quickly. He is 2 years old and 63 lbs. Fully vaccinated and will be neutered prior to adoption. Benny deserves a better life than living on the streets. If you can help by fostering or adopting, please reach out to Julie asap on 919 624 0059.
