Story
This sweet face with the big brown eyes belongs to Waffles, a roughly 6 year old boy who somehow found himself lost. He showed up at a nice person`s house who told us he was very friendly, so she tried to keep him. Waffles did fine with her dog, the cows, and the horses, but her dog decided he didn`t want Waffles to move in. Waffles clearly had an owner as he also seems to know the `sit` and `stay` commands. Wouldn`t you like to have this sweet boy`s handsome face to look at every day?Foster notes:He’s fully house-trained, so he’ll let you know if he needs to go outside and also understands the word `no.` He loves cuddles and being outside and gets along well with other dogs and young children. He doesn’t fully know his name yet, but he’s getting there, but will come/ listen to you if you whistle at him. He’s one of the most lovable and gentle dogs I have ever met, and he deserves a loving home.

Story
Foster notes, 12/5/23:Rockafella is a good boy. He is a senior guy who has done well to meet and continue to greet the neighborhood children. He is anxious around unknown people and pets. So far, I have been unable to do much about his dislike of cats. It seems to be one of the only things that set him off. He takes 2 walks per day (am and pm), and gets to go out off leash in the back yard as often as he asks. He is arthritic in his joints and cannot jump, so he doesn`t get on the house furniture because of this. I have a ramp for him to get in the car. He doesn`t seem to mind riding in the car. He does get anxious about first time adventures. He does not know how to play with toys, but he will sit for a long time for a good petting. He is a smart dog and a fast learner at most times (except for cats). No house training was required for Rockafella! He knows `come` and will ask to go out. I find his behaviors easy to read when he needs or wants something. He is a quiet dog and barks only at cats, alerts me that he wants to come in, and at unknown strangers and reactive dogs on our walks. He has learned to ignore and walk past yappy dogs in our neighborhood. He does not pull on leash and is mostly a loose leash walker (slow to medium pace). I`ve had no problems leaving him at home alone for up to 4 hours. He likes to go out as soon as I get home. The only time he has gotten into things - he was hungry and was rooting for food. And that was only the first week I had him. Can`t leave bagged dogfood on the floor where he can get to it! He sleeps all through the night.He is developing cataracts. He can see but not clearly at a distance . He will stand and stare at something. If it moves he may lunge after it. If it doesn`t move, he will move on. This can be funny when he stares at a bag or toy, only to discover it isn`t a cat he`s looking at. He also will miss verbal commands, so his hearing may not be 100%. He doesn`t react to thunder or fireworks. His nose works fine! Rockafella would be a wonderful untrained service dog for a vet or older adult. He loves to be around me and will just either sit facing me (he wants something) or sit with his back to me(wants to be petted). Otherwise, he is sleeping. He doesn`t like to be outside for long periods.

Story
Twinkie says, `When the mercury rises, I just let my tongue hang out. I also race around the play yard so I can feel the breeze on my face. But then I get too hot and have to go back inside to cool down in the AC.` Twinkie, you are such a nut! This good looking young boy came to us as a stray. He would like to become your sweet amigo, cohort, pal, and 100% best sidekick in life.`Wait! Are you sure it`s already Monday?` Yes, Twinkie, it`s a new week and we`re all rooting for you to get your forever home before the upcoming holiday! This cute little boy is not quite 2 years old, and he is super nice! He LOVES toys, and enjoys running and playing in our yard. Twinkie has such a happy, friendly personality, and will undoubtedly make a wonderful sidekick and buddy for a lucky person or family. This little cream-filled sponge cake is ready and waiting to meet you, so hurry over to BAS and scoop him up!

Story
Foster notes, 7/14/24:Dixie gets along great with everyone. She is calm and submissive with my great grandchildren and neighbors, but only after getting used to them.Before that she barks some, and then finally goes to her bed or under my feet. She`s very protective of me. She watches the deer and squirrels in the back yard.I told her they were my babies, so she doesn`t chase them. She is leash trained and walks and potty on a leash. She runs free in the back yard which has a small forest. She is great by herself. Goes to her bed and doesn`t leave it until I get home. Usually 3 hours. She sleeps all night without having to potty and doesn`t need to be crated. Dixie can be extremely stubborn and hard headed when her mind is set on something. She will not listen at that point!Otherwise, she is calm, patient, and will get along with anybody after she accepts them.New Foster Notes; 6/14/24:Dixie is house trained. She can go from 9pm-7am. She goes to her bed when I leave and stays there until I return. She walks good on a leash. She plays in the house and outside in the back yard. She knows her boundaries. I stay outside with her. She knows what I want her to do. I say go to bed and she goes. Sit down, and let`s eat and many more but not heel, sit up, we are working on give paw. She would do great in any type of homes after she feels comfortable around the person. She is very protective of me, so whoever gains her trust will be protected.She:-Is cuddly and affectionate -Walks well on leash (No or low amount of pulling) -Has met and did well with other dogs -Chases cats/small animals -Does well with small children -Enjoys car rides -Is potty trained-Treat MotivatedNew foster notes, 2/21/24:Dixie is almost finished with her heartworm treatment and is doing well but isn`t allowed to get excited or play too much for another couple of weeks. She`s sweet but doesn`t want anyone but me to take her to potty. She loves my great grandkids who are 2 years to 10 years old. She barks when anyone comes to the house but will stop after about 2 minutes when she starts feeling comfortable. She looks out the storm door at other dogs walking by and will bark. She is house trained and will stand in front of you and just look until you ask her if she wants to go potty. I`m trying to train her to get her leash. She knows different words like sit, come here, get your donut(toy), let`s go, let`s eat, and many

Story

SHILOH

Labrador Retriever

Male, 1 yr 5 mos
Burlington, NC
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Dog Day Out, 7/17/24:Shiloh went to PetSmart to get a new bone, got a “pup cup” from Starbucks, walked the Cates Farm Trail in Mebane, went for a ride in a golf cart and enjoyed the AC at home. Very snuggly and gentle dog, wanted to be with my daughter wherever she was. Not reactive at all to other dogs at PetSmart. Knows sit, went potty outside. Very sweet and loves his tennis ball! Shiloh was the perfect pup: very well-behaved, gentle with treats and content to lay on the couch and snuggle with you. Only went potty outside and knows “sit”. He loves car rides, had no trouble going up and down stairs. We have cats, but did not get to see any interaction as they stayed hidden. He didn’t bother their food bowls or litter boxes.Foster notes, 2/27/24:Shiloh loves to please! He’s a snuggly sweetheart with high energy. He would do best in a home with a backyard. He is treat motivated and when he has enough time to play & run outside, he’s a very good boy who will settle down to calmly chew a bone. Shiloh is:- Great at riding in cars - Knows Sit - Housetrained - Can quietly sleep in his crate overnight for 8 hrs (after a very small amount of whining) - Timid around doors & going downstairs- Very respectful to other dogs & people on walks (even if other dogs are barking & hyper!) - Shiloh likes to jump up & “hug” his people- Very quiet, only barking rarely for communication purposes. Shiloh is VERY kind to everyone he approaches. Unfortunately, if men directly approach him first, he can respond with fear & aggression. Shiloh needs good, safe experiences with men to resolve his fear based aggression. He gives a warning bark when he’s upset.
