Story
Meet Reece! Reece is 7-8 months old, neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and ready to go home with you! If we were allowed to use the word “Lab” as an adjective, noun, and verb, we would describe him as the labbiest lab to ever lab. Reece loves water (splashing in it, swimming in it, drinking it, etc), meeting new people, playing with other dogs, fetching after his stuffed cow toy, finding sunny spots to sunbathe in, and going for long walks. He is doing well with crate training, house training, and leash walking. Like any puppy, it will be your responsibility to keep working with him on these things but we believe he is well on his way to being an excellent dog. Reece is a super lovable goofball that will fit in well to any active home. He has a great “off switch” and enjoys curling up on the rug nearby and watching whatever you are doing. He has not lived with cats before but we believe he would be fine with a proper introduction and supervision. His biggest vices are overexcitement when passing other dogs on walks and crying in the crate at night so please be ready to address those with him. Once he settles in the crate, he will sleep 8+ hours. This guy has a big golden heart and can’t wait to meet you! Reece has lived with kids 5 and older and did very well with them. We would not recommend kids younger than that at this time. He would prefer a home with another dog to play with but it is not necessary as long as you are active and willing to play with him and walk him.

Hi guys! My name is Thumper, and I am a super sweet, lovable boy who's just looking for my forever family. I absolutely love people; everyone I meet becomes my friend right away, and there's truly not a mean bone in my body. I am working hard on my house training and doing really well! I’m learning to go to the door to let you know when I need to go out, and I haven’t had any accidents recently. I’m also crate trained. I might whine for a couple of minutes when I first go in, but then I settle right down and relax. I like other dogs too! I can be a little shy at first, but once I warm up, I’m happy and playful. I haven’t met kids or cats yet, but since I love people so much, I’m excited to meet new friends of all kinds. I walk nicely on a leash and really enjoy going for walks. When it comes to fun, I’m all in. I love fetch, chew toys, running around, water, and just about anything that involves playing. After I get my energy out, I’m more than happy to cuddle up and take a nice nap. I’m the perfect mix of playful and laid-back. If you’re looking for a loving, affectionate companion who will happily play with you and then snuggle by your side, I think we’d be a great match. Come meet me, I can’t wait to show you just how special I am!

Hi, I’m Salem! I am 5 months old and 40 pounds! I love snuggles, belly rubs, and, most of all, treats! I am very shy at first but once you have patience with me I am your new best friend. I tend to be quiet, unless I am playing with my toys, or people then I will slide and glide over the floor. I walk pretty well on my leash, I tend to pull but when you stop I will stop too and walk by your side. I’m playful and love spending time together. I get along great with other dogs, and kids, I haven’t met any cats yet, but I think I’d do fine with a slow introduction. I love my crate, even though I sometimes bark or whine a bit before settling in. I’m doing really well with potty training too! I go outside, and do not have accident in the house. I will go to the door when I really need to go out. Do not forget to grab our coats! I get cold easily and start shaking so I need my coat on really cold days. We could be matching buddies with our jackets! I would love that so much! If you like cuddles, playtime, and snacks as much as I do, I think we’ll be the perfect match! Lets meet, and become forever friends!

Story
Meet Carol 🐾 Carol is a precious 3-month-old mixed breed puppy with the sweetest soul and the softest heart. Since coming into Peak’s care, this little girl has made incredible progress—and everyone who meets her falls in love. When Carol first arrived, she was terrified of the world. She would barely leave her kennel and wasn’t sure she could trust people. Thanks to patient, loving foster homes, Carol has blossomed into a happy, affectionate puppy who now loves to snuggle on the couch, follows her people from room to room, and happily zooms around the yard with joy. Carol is: • 💕 Wonderful with other dogs • 🐱 Good with cats • 👶 Gentle with children • 💤 Crate trained and sleeps through the night • 🚪 Almost fully housebroken (just a few puppy accidents!) She’s very food motivated, making her eager to learn commands and routines—especially when treats are involved. And when it comes to playtime, Carol is all in! She absolutely LOVES toys, particularly squeaky ones, and can often be found adorably hoarding her treasures in the corner of the couch or in her bed. Carol is truly as sweet as can be, and every foster who’s cared for her has cherished watching her confidence grow. Now it’s time for this brave, loving little girl to find her forever home. 💛 Apply today to meet Carol and be part of her happily-ever-after!

Story
Looking for a puppy who brings joy, snuggles, and a whole lot of love? Julia is a darling black lab mix puppy who has completely stolen our hearts and is now searching for a family to call her own. Julia does great on leash walks, sticks close when outside, and comes when called. She’s already beginning to signal when she needs to go potty and is eager to please. Julia is fantastic with other dogs, loves young children, and has a special talent for finding her way right into your lap for cuddles. Crate training can be a little challenging — mostly because Julia prefers being right by your side and makes it very hard not to scoop her up instead. With time and routine, she’ll continue to grow in confidence. If you’re ready for a loyal, affectionate best friend who will fill your home with love, Julia may be the one for you. 💛 Apply to meet her today!

***LOCAL ADOPTER (within 50 miles of Apex, NC) NEEDED! This dog is scheduled to be neutered at our partner vet on 1/9.*** Hi, I’m Waylon! I’m a one year old lab mix. I’m past the puppy stage, and ready for my new family. Foster mom thinks I have some hound in me because I’m constantly sniffing out all the things. I was picked up as a super skinny stray, but I’m nearly back to a normal weight and I should top out around 50 pounds. I’m heartworm negative, healthy, smart, a great car riding companion, and have an appointment to be neutered on 1/9/2026. I love being in a house and with my people. I’m fully house trained and will stand by the door to ask to go out. I sleep quietly all night in a crate by their bed and hang out there when they are out. Since being here I’ve learned sit, wait, leave it, and down. I’m super food motivated so it’s easy for me to learn new things. I’m learning to be better on a leash, but I do pull because there is so much to smell, see, and do!! Foster mom says I’m learning heel & getting better every walk. Waylon is a typical young & goofy, loveable lab mix past the puppy stage and ready for his happily ever after. He loves toys and to run in the fenced backyard as much as cuddling on the couch. He’s still learning boundaries and will leap into your lap or use his paws to communicate when he wants attention. Waylon generally needs slow introductions to other dogs, but this will likely improve post neuter surgery. Waylon would be a great addition to an active individual or family with children over age 8. If Waylon seems like your guy, he’d love to meet you.
