Story
Rhodie is an absolute gem! He’s the sweetest boy who loves children & other dogs. He’s shy at first, but will slowly warm up as he gets to know you. Rhodie is house trained & does not have any bad chewing or related habits. After Hurricane Helene in Asheville, our family moved into a duplex style, split-level home. The increased noises throughout the day really stress him out. We’ve tried everything, but the poor guy feels anxious and stressed at all times. He needs to be in a traditional home, he will not do well in an apartment or duplex. He currently lives with a large dog (as shown in photos) and a 4 year old. We are heartbroken to say goodbye, but he is miserable in his current situation and needs relief.

Story
We adopted Jupiter from the humane society when he was just 12 weeks old. He was there with his brother, who was adopted by our dear friends a day later. He came into our lives when our little one was just 15 months old and learned how to interact with her and become aware of her energy, which has allowed for a harmonious co-existence between them. He also can peacefully co-exist with another cat, given the occasional urge to want to play. The great thing is that cats have a voice and when they express, Jupiter learns to listen. Jupiter has big energy. He likes to run like a bolt of lightning through deep woods and needs lots of exercise and play time. He also knows how to relax when the time calls for it and has learned how to honor our toddler's naptimes. He is mindful in the mornings with allowing for as much space as possible for us to rise when we are ready so he can be let outside. He is VERY house trained and does not get on beds but does like the luxury of laying on couches.

Attention: This is a courtesy posting only! This pet is NOT available through Mountain Pet Rescue.  Please do NOT contact MPR for information about the pet or apply to adopt this pet on the MPR website.  Contact the owner at 571-599-9093 or e.e.mcgrath@gmail.com for more information or to adopt the pet.Hecate (“Hex”) is a sweet, gentle lab-pit mix who loves long walks, yak cheese, tug-of-war and hanging out with her pack. This 8-year-old, 68-pound pup has experience living with cats and children.Hex doesn’t like to be left alone (which she’ll express by barking and chewing on her bed), so she’d do best in a house with another dog to keep her company while her parent(s) are out. She’ll sleep peacefully half the day as long as her family is near.Hex loves going for walks and jogs, but like many dogs can be a little reactive on the leash when she’s on her home turf. She’s working on it and with some more patient training should improve. She’s usually better about this in unfamiliar settings where she doesn’t feel territorial, so she’d love to join you on trips around town.Hex is the perfect Asheville companion, always up for a hike and a trip to the brewery after!Contact me today at 571-599-9093 or e.e.mcgrath@gmail.com to learn more about sweet Hex. All Mountain Pet Rescue (Asheville) animals are up-to-date on vaccinations, spayed/neutered and micro-chipped before adoption. Contact the foster parent or Mountain Pet Rescue at pets@mpravl.org for more information. Please note that visual breed identification of companion animals has been proven to be unreliable, so for most of our animals we provide a best guess at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each of our animals as an individual and do our best to describe and place pets based on personality not breed label. Mountain Pet Rescue is a 501(c)(3) non-profit tax deductible charity (EIN 82-3039637) located in Asheville, NC. March 6, 2025, 1:10 am

Story
Ebony is a 3 yr old affectionate, well trained and playful dog. She walks well on leash and loves to play both fetch and tug. She is food motivated and enjoys training. Our multidog household is a bit too much for her. If you have room in your home and heart for one special dog, she would be great for you.

Story
Amelie is a wonderful girl, but I've recently developed some pretty severe allergies, and we're unable to have two dogs in our home. Her coat is striking and lovely, but the dander from two is just two much for my immune system. While she's an anxious girl who doesn't love thunderstorms, she's extremely loving with children and other in-home pets. She's anxious around other dogs, but she will settle into the dog park with repeat exposure. (We've done this many a time.) Amelie is for someone who has a lot of space for her to run and loves to have a dog at their feet at all times. She will follow you everywhere you go! She doesn't take well to car rides (the vet is it), but this problem is completely eradicated when she's in the open bed of a truck. Otherwise, she's happy to run around at home! You won't find a better cuddle bug!! She'll be anxious at first, but she'll love you harder than you've ever been loved!

Story
Our little pup that was dumped in our driveway at 10PM one night, Cinder, is now ready for some adoption applications to start rolling in - he is estimated to be 10-11 weeks old now and he is a mutt without a doubt but has a lot of lab in him - he is a very social little guy , he does great with other dogs, doing well with housebreaking but of course if you have had a puppy before you know patience and consistency is the key - at his last vet visit on 4/15 he was 10 pounds - we do think he will be close to 50 pounds full grown. Those soulful eyes will melt your heart without a doubt - summer time is here and the perfect time to add a puppy to your family and Cinder says he would love to check off "forever home found" on his to do list. Interested in adopting Cinder - go to our website www.boxerbuttsandothermutts.org and fill out our adoption application His adoption fee is $250.00 - this includes the rescue paying for his remaining puppy vaccines and Rabies vaccine and his neuter and pre-surgical bloodwork - he is currently up to date on age appropriate vaccines but will need 2 more boosters that the rescue will cover , he has been dewormed and microchipped. This was without a doubt not a planned rescue as nobody expects a puppy in a basket in your driveway late at night but it happened and it is up to us to show him that the rest of his life will be nothing but the best. As a reminder - we do not have a facility - all of our dogs are in private foster homes throughout Western North Carolina and Upstate South Carolina Don't wait - head on over to our website and fill out that adoption application and give Cinder a new last name - he is ready We do require vet references and a home visit as well
