Story
We've been caring for Happy around four months now - we are urgently looking for his long-term home or another foster home that can help him on the next stage of his journey. Happy loves all people, is extremely friendly and wants to be near his people at all times. He has done well with dogs and cats so far (we have three older dogs and three cats) as well as kids (our eight-year-old son plays with him all the time). He's house-broken (you need to take time to understand his signals) and loves to spend time with his chew toys. We believe Happy will really thrive as the single dog in a household, because he is looking for a deep and uninterrupted connection with his people - he does get jealous when we show affection to our other dogs - and he would love to be highly active with a hiker or walker - a home in the country with space to run would be great for him!

Story
Whiskey is a German Shepherd I got from an accidental litter in Tennessee. He's travelled with me from Tennessee, to Hawaii, to North Carolina. He just turned 5 years old in October of 2025. He's very playful, loves his toys, likes giving hugs, cuddling, and being one of the sweetest German Shepherds I have ever met. Due to some unfortunate circumstances in my life, I will need to be downsizing my living and I will not be able to take him with me to my new location. My fee is set to $0 because I just wish for him to go to a good home. He's been a wonderful dog and I wish for him to bring joy into someone else's life. A yard space and something soft to lay on when he goes to sleep as he is very spoiled. He's been around other dogs all of his life and loves playing with other high energy dogs. He's been around cats before, but his reaction is very unreliable.

Story
Lucy is an amazing dog. Smart and energetic, sweet and loyal. A great protector of the house and a great companion. We've had her since she was 4 months old and wish we could bring her woth us to where we are moving but there isn't space for her to run and have a great time which isn't fair to her. We are looking for a great and safe home for her whether its just while we are gone or a forever home. We love her dearly and want her to be happy and healthy.
