Story
Gideon is a 5 year old mixed breed dog we adopted from Saving Grace in Durham. He was 8 weeks old at the time of his adoption. He loves hugs and attention and enjoys cuddles and is house trained. He regularly visits his vet at Banfield Pet Hospital and is loved by the staff at Camp Bow Wow on Bennet Rd in Durham. He typically visits on a weekly basis and we board him there when necessary. We have decided to rehome him due to my increased travel schedule and he bit my 1 year old granddaughter. He is a really good dog, this was totally out of character for him but with my schedule, it is difficult to give him the attention he craves. We will include the following: Dog crate, 2 dog beds, 6 months of Simpirica Trio, a bookbag, 2 leashes and multiple bottles of shampoo and brushes.

Story
Little Bear is a beautiful 3 year old, 27 lb dream boy who does the best head tilts and likes to be held like a little lamb. He is mellow, snuggly, goofy, gentle, and generally quiet. He thrives around other dogs, and is wary-to-afraid of cats. It is very important to him that he be in daily contact with other dogs. Little Bear is a perfect angel and I would keep him if I could! Unfortunately, my pre-existing dog, who is blind and elderly, wants to murder him - so it is not safe or fair for Little Bear or my other dog to continue living together. I'm open to long-term fostering as well as rehoming. If you are looking for a snuggly companion for a year but not a decade, this could be a great fit for you! Little Bear was originally rescued from a hoarding situation in VA in May 2025 and I adopted him a month later. I'm so proud of how he's flourished and adapted to living in a normal home. He is so resilient and open-hearted despite what he's been through!

Story
It is with a super heavy heart that we must rehome our six year-old mixed breed rescue. She is a funny, lovable, super playful 63 pound Heinz 57 clown. She is spayed, healthy up-to-date on vaccines. She went through training as a pup and would be able to start following the commands again if repeated every day, she is very smart. She does still follow basic commands. housebroken, crate trained at night but would love to sleep with you! She LOVES to play fetch, she LOVES the water. Very treat oriented and will follow commands quickly. If there is a treat involved, she will remember how to heal on a leash for walks and could possibly be trained to be your run, buddy she is OK with medium and large dogs, she thinks small dogs are chew toys. Would do best as your sole doggy and limited time with larger dogs initially. She is a cuddler and wants to be your one and only #1! She hasn't been around cats or small children. She will make a great dog with the best loving energetic human!

Story
I was rescued from a family that abused me, didn't want me and had me chained outside so tight that I couldn't move. Luckily, I was surrendered over to the rescue. I am available to go home anytime after I am spayed which is January 20, 2025. I am good with other dogs and just love to be loved. Do you have room for me in your family? I would love to join it.

Story
Rocky is a great dog, we’re just not the right home for him. His owner, my partner’s son, died earlier this year and we’re taking care of him, but it’s clear he needs more than we can give him. He has no boundaries and loves everyone he meets. A little consistent training would likely help with the boundaries. He also needs A LOT of attention, like 8-year old kid run and play kind of attention. Rocky is house and crate trained. He does not like the squirt bottle and will seriously consider his actions if he thinks he’s likely to be squirted. Full disclosure, he has peed on bags/boxes in the floor, but I’m guessing this most likely stems from boredom and his need for attention. Other Rocky facts: He’s 5-6 years old, weighs 60lbs, and is neutered. Drools like crazy when in a car. Walks ok on a leash but can be leash aggressive to other dogs, lots of barking and lunging (mostly I think because he’s excited, just doesn’t necessarily appear that way).

Story
Cecelia came from one of the rural shelters in NC where she was described as an 8-year old heart worm positive senior girl. What they couldn’t tell me was how she is a sweet, loving and energetic Velcro dog who loves nothing more than rolling in the grass and chewing a bully stick. She loves to be outdoors, sniffing around the house and sitting in the sun. Cecelia is great in the car and always up for a ride. And now that she has completed her heart worm treatment, Cecelia is looking forward to walks with her family. Cecelia has completed training to help her learn how to not be reactive to other dogs. Cecelia was identified as needing to be the only dog in the house. I believe she would be best as the only pet in the household as she does seem to be jealous of the resident cats. She would also appreciate a home where she can snuggle on the couch and maybe in a warm bed with her person/people. She was saved from the shelter and we just want her to have her perfect home.
