Story
Meet Sparky, the ultimate fur friend who's got it all! He's a playful, happy-go-lucky pup who loves snuggling and being a lap dog. He's gentle and sweet, not to mention super social with humans, other dogs, and even cats. He craves attention and absolutely adores getting belly rubs. His toy collection is impressive too, especially his stuffed toys and squeakers, which he gladly shares.   Sparky is quite the gentleman too.  While he's not a fan of crates, he's such a good boy on a leash. With his leash manners, he doesn't necessarily need a fenced yard, but he absolutely loves having one. It's his own personal kingdom!  His size and adventurous spirit says any fence of his needs to have solid panels or narrow spacing. And if you're living in an apartment, that's totally cool too, as long as he gets his exercise, playtime, and daily walks.   When it comes to Sparky's daily routine, he starts his day with a trip outside, a hearty half-cup of dry food for breakfast, and plenty of playtime. Throughout the day, he'll take naps and enjoy another outdoor outing after his person returns from work. For dinner, he has another half-cup of food, sometimes mixed with a little wet food for a special treat. And in the evenings, you've got the perfect couch potato.  He'll happily join you on the couch for a cozy night in. In fact, he loves spending time with his person so much, his favorite activity is simply being by your side.   Sparky would thrive in a loving, multigenerational family, a stay-at-home or work-from-home family, or even with a couple who have opposite work schedules. His gratitude for your love will brighten your day, and his happy cries during playtime will crack you up. He's a sweetheart who never tires of kisses from his person.   So why wait? Bring Sparky into your life and let the fun and love begin! As part of Sparky’s $300 adoption fee, he will be neutered, microchipped, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, and current on his monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives. If you have questions about this sweet little boy, you can email Dogteam@pawsforlifenc.org.  If you wish to adopt Sparky, you can fill in an online application for him under the Adopt a Pet Tab on our website:  www.pawsforlifenc.org. ##2001090##

Story
***AVAILABLE ON-SITE THURSDAYS AND FRIDAYS*** Maroon is a lap dog through and through. She loves all people and wants nothing more than to be cuddled up in your lap or next to you. Maroon does not demonstrate food aggression with other dogs in her foster home, though she does get testy if another dog wakes her from a nap. She did not mess in the house during the short time she was in foster care and slept through the night. She would be a great addition for any family with empty laps. Fill out an application to bring Maroon home soon!

Story
After 4 years we’ve decided it’s best to rehome our Jack Russel mix Jade to no fault of her own. She is a fantastic dog and we hope to find her a home that loves her for the beautiful soul that she is. She is house trained, crate trained, good with kids and other dogs. She has never been around cats but would probably do okay. She is a snuggler and loves to cuddle and lay in your lap. She does well on a leash, harness or collar. She did well as an apartment dog but is high energy so would do best with regular walks. She is microchipped, fixed and up to date on all shots. She knows sit, lay, stay, drop it and loves fetch. She loves being the center of attention and unfortunately we just can’t give her the time and attention she needs and deserves at this time.
