Story

Hi friends! My name’s Kal, and I’m a 6-year-old, 67-lb Lab mix with a big ol’ heart and a serious talent for lounging in style! Everyone says I’m the easiest dog ever — and honestly, I think they’re right! I was a total staff favorite at my first shelter, and now the team at the Shelter Pet Adoption Center has fallen head over heels for me too. (What can I say? I’m kinda irresistible!) I’m living the good life in a foster home right now, and I’m doing amazing! I’m crate-trained, house-trained, and I walk like a perfect gentleman on leash. I was found hanging out in a field with another dog, but I already had a microchip, was neutered, heartworm negative, and I even know how to sit and shake! So yeah… it’s pretty clear I used to have someone who loved me — and now I’m ready to find that love again, forever this time. If you think we could be a match made in heaven, email ncteam@austinpetsalive.org or call (704) 266-3647 to meet me! I’ll be waiting (probably on the couch).

Story

Frodo is a lively 7-month-old pup with energy to spare and a big personality to match. Since he's still young, he'll benefit from plenty of simple obedience training to help channel all that enthusiasm. On leash, Frodo likes to go-go-go,so be prepared for an energetic walk full of pep and curiosity. His previous owner shared that he was good with children of all ages, making him a fun companion for an active family.In playgroups, Frodo is full of himself-in the most entertaining way. Loud, proud, and delightfully boisterous, he barrels up to other dogs and barks right in their faces as his version of an invitation to play. While our silly crew wasn'tbothered, some dogs might be. Potential adopters will want to continue to work with him on his canine to canine etiquette, because Frodo is definitely ready for canine charm school!If you're looking for a goofy, high-spirited best friend to grow and learn with, Frodo is your guy-come scoop him up today!If you're interested in learning more about him, please reach out to our volunteer matchmakers at wcac.matchmaker@gmail.com with the subject line "Frodo, 262024".He is already neutered and up to date on vaccinations, flea/tick and heartworm prevention, and is microchipped. If you have cats, we recommend slow introductions over time. If you have children in your home, we recommend supervisionbetween animals and children at all times.

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Rowdy is already neutered and READY TO GO HOME!!!Don't let the name fool you-Rowdy's not wild. He's a 7-year-old, 70-pound black Lab with a calm, gentle soul. He was found running along a highway with a too-tight collar and a chain dragging behind him. Since then, he's proven to be one of the sweetest, easiest dogs around. He doesn't need constant attention-he's just happy to be in the same room, keeping you quiet company.Rowdy enjoys simple things: a good walk, a rawhide chew, and a grassy yard to sniff around in. He has a strong prey drive (squirrels beware), but with a front-clip harness and a low-distraction route, he walks well. Toys don't interest him much-he's more about calm than chaos.He's crate trained, house trained, is great with children of all ages, and has great manners. He prefers his kibble with a spoonful of wet food, thank you, and he takes treats with the softest mouth. On a spa day with a volunteer, he was calm in the car, polite at the groomer, and charming at the hamburger drive-thru.Rowdy's looking for a home where he can be the only pet. No dogs, no cats-just you. After all he's been through, he deserves a peaceful life with someone who'll see what a steady, loyal fella he really is. He's waited long enough.He is heartworm positive, but heartworms are treatable, not contagious, and thanks to Friends of Wake County Animal Center, he comes with a $1,000 sponsorship to help with treatment costs.Ready to add some Rowdy to your life (and we mean that in the best way possible) or interested in seeing if he may be a good fit for your household?Email: Rachel.petranka@gmail.com with the subject line "Rowdy 257754"Rowdy is up to date on vaccinations, flea/tick prevention, is microchipped, and already neutered.

Rey

Labrador Retriever

Female, Adult

Story

Rey is a shy, reserved pup who's been through more than she lets on. She came to us with some unknown wounds-both inside and out-but with time, care, and a lot of love, she's healing beautifully. She arrived along with a neutered, unwounded male, but so far, she prefers to coexist rather than engage in play with another male.Though cautious at first, Rey has a quiet strength that shines through in the little moments: a soft glance, a slow tail wag, the way she leans in just a bit closer each day. She's not one for loud noises or busy places, but in a calm home with a patient heart, she'll flourish.Rey was briefly tested with cats by a volunteer-she's very timid about getting in the car but then rode quietly. Not particularly interested in the cats, she was more focused on exploring the house. It's possible her reduced energy could be a result of her past injuries, so it's best to go slow and supervise her cat interactions in the beginning.In playgroups, Rey is a bit of a timid gal. She's shy and can become shutdown, even in her kennel. However, she perked up around another shy male dog though he wasn't interested in interacting. We tried pairing her with a more playful dog, but it was a bit too much for her, and she became a little squawky. We'll need to find her the "Goldilocks" partner-someone gentle and dainty, who can bring out her quiet confidence without overwhelming her.Rey is looking for someone who understands that healing takes time-and that sometimes, the quietest dogs have the most to say. If you're someone who believes in second chances and finding beauty in the gentle ones, Rey is waiting to meet you.Although she is heartworm positive, it is treatable and not contagious. Friends of Wake County Animal Center has provided a $600 sponsorship to help cover the cost of treatment.If you're interested in learning more about Rey, please email the front desk at animalcenter@wake.gov with the subject line "Rey 258644" Primary Color: Brown Weight: 56.5 Age: 3yrs 8mths 1wks

Story

Hi. My name is Sam! I'm a mixed-breed labrador who is about 5-1/2 years old, weighs 60.5 pounds, heartworm negative, healthy, and happy as can be. I'm in foster care because my owner got sick and couldn't take care of me anymore, which makes me sad. However I'm full of love for my foster parents and two foster sister dogs, but I don't really like cats because I got scared by one when she hissed at swatted at me. I love playing and being with everyone and enjoy long walks. I'd really love jogging if you're into that. I'm easy-going, a quick learner (I already know 'paw', 'sit' and mostly know 'stay'), and I'm completely house trained.You can trust me if you have to leave home, but I like it better when you're with me. We'll be great friends, I know it. If you're interested in learning more about Sam, please email the front desk at animalcenter@wake.gov with the subject line "Sam 258322" Primary Color: Tan Weight: 62.5 Age: 6yrs 3mths 0wks

Story

Hey there! I`m Flint, and as the holiday season approaches, I`m dreaming of finding my forever family to share cozy winter moments with. I might seem a bit shy at first, but I promise I`m a gentle soul who loves soft pets and quiet cuddles. My tail might not wag wildly, but when I start to feel comfortable, you`ll see my sweet personality shine through. This holiday season, I`m hoping to find a patient and loving home where I can be your loyal companion. I may have had a rough start as a stray, but I`m ready to create warm memories with someone who understands that sometimes the quietest hearts have the most love to give. I`m looking for a calm household where I can lean into pets, enjoy peaceful moments, and become your faithful friend through all of life`s seasons.I am full grown at ~42lbs. How did I get here? Transferred from Wake County Animal Center where I came in as a stray. ~My adoption fee is waived thanks to a grant from The Grey Muzzle Organization.~
