Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Meet Frisky, an exceptionally well-behaved houseguest! He refrains from jumping, counter surfing, or engaging in unwanted activities in the house. He spends most of his day napping on various beds and is crated only at night. Although he may not love entering the crate initially, once inside, he remains quiet and calm. The only sound you hear is his tail wagging so hard against the crate when he sees you! Frisky has excellent potty manners and knows to use the bathroom outside. He walks well on a leash and behaves well during car rides, although he may need some encouragement to get in and out. In the presence of his foster's senior dog, Frisky closely follows and appears eager to play, adjusting well to corrections. While he hasn't officially met the resident cat, his interest suggests potential compatibility, but a face-to-face introduction is recommended. Frisky is a super wiggly people lover, and his foster mom states he's the most well-behaved foster she's ever had. This sweetheart will make an amazing pet for a very lucky adopter. Come meet him today!

Story

*** CURRENTLY AVAILABLE ON-SITE *** This beautiful young girl is a just a little shy at first, takes a day or so to get settled in and then becomes your best friend. She is cute & playful, loves to chase a laser light around, play tug and will often entertain herself rolling a ball around. Crate trained, 99% housebroken, learning basic manners, getting used to leash walking and car rides, she quickly learned the household routine/rules even with a house full of distractions and will be a champion with some one-on-one training. Nutter likes to play with other dogs and gets nervous around other energetic puppies & protective when new dogs crowd around her. She does best meeting 1 at a time and once she feels safe, she will follow them all over. One of Nutter's most favorite things to do is snuggle up next to her person or favorite dog mate. She is an excellent cuddler! She is a happy, loving girl that wants nothing more than a happy, loving person or family to call her own. *Weekend Host feedback: "She loves to be close to you and always rests her head on you". She will allow you to pick her up, and doesn't mind being harnessed or leashed". "She goes right into her crate without complaint". "She was completely oblivious of our cat". Recent Weekend Host commented: "She quickly warmed up to both new people and new dogs." "She was very playful with our two dogs but also takes dog social cues well. " "jumped into the car on her own for adventures! " "Nutter is a great eater and seems very food motivated which would bode well for training!"

Story

Do you need a playful pup for your playful pup? Honey is a lovable, caring, fun, energetic, and spunky dog. She loves lots of attention, likes long walks but is still learning her leash manners. Apartment life is not for her.  She has a lot of energy so she needs a home with an active family and a large fenced yard to run around in and work out the zoomies.  She is a 5-year-old, 60lb female Lab/Hound mix. Honey is dog friendly, and it's recommended that she would do better in a setting with older kids.  She is active so wouldn't want to accidently knock a little one down.  A recent vacation Foster had this to say about sweet Honey: "We only fostered her one night while her foster mom was away but she did AMAZING with my kids who are 4 and 6. She played outside with them, immediately rolled on her belly for them and did not jump.  Again, we only had her one night and she loved the fenced yard but when she was in the house, she was chill and just laid in the middle of the floor with everyone.  Just wanted to share our experience with her" Most importantly Honey is house trained and is crate trained which is great! She does well when she is in her crate while alone. Honey likes toys and likes to chew, so would do well with durable toys and things to keep her occupied. At the end of the day, she’ll be the first one to lay on the couch and cuddle with you. Honey is looking for a loving home with her furever family to love her and play with her. As part of Honey's $300 adoption fee, she is spayed, microchipped, up to date on vaccines, and current on her monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives.  If you have questions about this sweet girl, you can email Dogteam@pawsforlifenc.org.  If you wish to adopt Sandy, you can fill in an online application for her under the Adopt a Pet Tab on our website:  www.pawsforlifenc.org. ##945313##

Hi there, I'm Daria - your golden-hued canine companion, and I'm on a mission to spread sweetness and a dash of spice wherever I go! Picture this: I'm an adult dog who's got the sweetness game down to an art. Lounging is my specialty, and I take great pride in lavishing belly rubs and kisses upon my favorite people. When it comes to lazing around, consider me the expert. My sunny disposition lights up any room, and I've got a soft spot for curling up beside you for some quality relaxation time. I'm the embodiment of sugar, and my love for people knows no bounds. Now, let's talk about the spice - I do have doggo friends and I love to play hard. Go hard or go home I think you two legged people say and that works when it comes to my romping time. Oh, did I mention I'm potty and crate trained? Yep, I've got those skills down too. Your home will be my haven, and I'll make sure to keep everything neat and tidy. So, if you're looking for a furry friend who brings a perfect blend of sweetness, lazy lounging, and a touch of spice to your life, look no further. I'm Daria, and I'm ready to add some flavor to our adventure together! *Additional feedback from a weekend host includes: "She rode great in the car. Didn't make a peep".
