Story
Cooper is a pro at snuggling and one of the most affectionate dogs. He doesn't understand that he's a big boy and sometimes tries to sit on our laps! He's always up for walking around the neighborhood, playing fetch, or getting belly scratches. He's a gentleman and gets along well with other female dogs, but humans are his favorite. He's the type of dog who just wants to be near you and will follow you from room to room just to be close by. He's a real sweetheart. I will be getting married next summer and my fiance fosters dogs and has a dog of his own. My dog Cooper does not do well with my fiance's dog, which is the only reason we have made the difficult decision to re-home him.

Story
Dear Santa, My name is Charlie, and I’ve been trying very hard to be a good boy this year. My foster mom says I am one — and I’m finally starting to believe her. Santa, I’ve been waiting patiently for almost a year for my forever family. It hasn’t been easy. I didn’t have the best start in life, and learning to trust has taken me some time. But with Lucky Paws Rescue and my foster families helping me, I’ve grown braver, happier, and more hopeful. I’ve learned so much: I sleep through the night like a champ I get along great with dogs, cats, and even chickens I’m potty trained I love toys, treats, and exploring outside And I’m the best couch snuggler once I feel safe I’m still nervous about leashes and being held, but I’m trying every day. I just need a patient, kind human who will love me while I keep learning. So Santa… my Christmas wish is simple: Please help me find my forever home. I promise I’ll give them all the love I’ve been saving up this whole year. Love,Charlie ##2270697##

Story
Hi, my name is Cooper!I’m a goofy, loving, and loyal boy looking for a calm, forever home where I can finally feel safe and understood. I’ve been at the shelter for a while now, and no one really knows why—I`m smart, cuddly, and full of love once you get to know me!I’m not much of a barker, but I do love to “talk” to my people—my previous foster mom never quite understood what I was saying, but she always laughed and smiled. I’ve been abandoned before, so meeting new people can be scary for me. I may bark at first, but it’s just because I’m nervous. Once I trust you (especially if you bring treats), you’ll be in my pack forever.I’d do best in a quiet home with no children, or only older kids who truly understand and respect boundaries. I need a confident dog-savvy adopter who will commit to helping me build trust and confidence through positive reinforcement and patience. I’m reactive to most people when walking, so I’ll need someone who is willing to work on this with me using calm exposure and consistency.I’m house-trained, trustworthy outside of a crate, and love both outdoor adventures and couch snuggles. I’m also super food-motivated, so training with me is fun and easy! With structure, exercise, and love, I’ll show you just how amazing of a companion I can be.If you’re looking for a sweet, smart, low-key best friend, I’m your guy. I just need someone to believe in me.My adoption fee of $50 includes up-to-date vaccinations, dewormer, and heartworm/flea prevention. Plus, a microchip that is already registered to you! What more could you ask for?If you`d like to meet me, please fill out an application on our website, PawmettoLifeline.org. Adoptions are by appointment Tuesday through Thursday, Friday and Saturday are walk in from 10-5. Please fill out the online application, and you will be contacted if you are approved and are a good fit for one of our adoptable pets.

Story
Meet Volkie!Volkie is a 4-year-old Black Mouth Cur with a big heart and an even bigger personality. This handsome boy loves adventure just as much as he loves cuddles — whether it’s a walk by the river, a camping trip, or curling up on the couch as the little spoon, Volkie is happiest when he’s with his person.He’s a smart pup who knows his commands in both English and German (and listens best to German!). Volkie is relatively low-energy day to day but plays hard when it’s time for fun. He loves tug-of-war and fetch, and his favorite toys are stuffed animals — especially ducks and octopuses — though he can’t resist removing all the stuffing. He’s a blanket-lover too, though it’s a supervised privilege since he sometimes decides they’re snacks.A true fashionista, Volkie enjoys showing off his style in sweaters, puffers, and even cozy pajamas when it’s chilly. He’s also a talker — expressive, vocal, and full of opinions, especially when he’s feeling playful or wants attention.Volkie is gentle with children and loves to show affection with kisses and “corn-cobbing.” He walks well on leash but can pull when he gets excited, so he’ll do best with someone who can confidently handle him. He should be kept leashed outdoors or in a fully fenced yard since he’s a bit of a runner and can’t resist chasing squirrels or birds.When left home alone, Volkie is calm and content, but being away from home without his person can make him anxious — a calming treat and a busy toy like a frozen Kong help him settle.Volkie is a loyal, loving companion who wants nothing more than time, attention, and a family to share his adventures with. If you’re looking for a smart, affectionate, slightly goofy best friend to fill your days with love (and a few giggles), Volkie is your boy.My adoption fee of $50 includes up-to-date vaccinations, dewormer, and heartworm/flea prevention. Plus, a microchip that is already registered to you!
