Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Ben — A Resilient Little Lovebug Looking for His Forever Lap Ben is a Shih Tzu who was found as a stray in heartbreaking condition — completely blind, severely underweight, and heartworm positive. The vet estimates he’s around 10 years old… but honestly, that’s anyone’s guess (we like to joke he must have been a weatherman in his past life ). He could be older, he could be younger — what we do know is that Ben acts much younger than his age! Despite being blind, Ben is incredibly smart and adaptable. His sense of smell and hearing are amazing, and he navigates his world with confidence. He plays with the other dogs in his foster home and loves being part of the action. If he hears you walk by, he immediately rolls over and demands belly rubs — it’s basically his signature move. &#226&#157&#164&#239&#184&#143 Ben is the ultimate companion dog. He wants to be near his person, on their lap, getting face rubs, belly rubs, and all the love. Because of this, he needs a home where someone is home most of the day — ideally someone who works from home or is retired. Home preferences: Best as an only dog or in a home with female dogs only Currently working on marking behavior Needs a calm, loving home that understands blind dogs and senior care No transporting — adopter must be local or come to him Medical: Currently undergoing heartworm treatment Will complete treatment and be neutered in early February Will be available for adoption at the end of February Location: Durham, NC Adoption Fee: $300 Transportation: We do not transport dogs Ben has been through so much, yet he is still joyful, affectionate, playful, and full of love to give. He doesn’t let blindness define him — he lives with confidence, curiosity, and a whole lot of heart. If you’re looking for a devoted lap dog who will adore you endlessly, Ben might just be your perfect match.

Story
Meet Yeshi! 🐾🖤 Yeshi is a 5-year-old Shih Tzu mix with a big personality.. He’s housebroken, up to date on vaccinations, and heartworm negative—ready for a fresh start. Yeshi has been through a lot and needs time to trust people. He’s looking for a very understanding and patient adopter, preferably someone with experience owning the breed. Once he feels safe, he can be a loyal and loving companion—but he needs to go at his own pace. Because of his sensitive nature, a no-children household is a must. If you think you can give Yeshi the calm, consistent love he needs, please call the shelter at 910-259-7022, Monday through Friday from 9 AM to 12 PM. Sometimes the ones who need love the most are the ones who’ve never really had it. Let’s help Yeshi find his person. 💛🐶

Story
This pet was brought in as a stray and will NOT be available for adoption through our program. All stray animals brought in are posted on the gallery to hopefully be reunited with their families. Each pet is evaluated upon arrival, and throughout their stay, at the Animal Center and we do our best to place the animal in the setting most appropriate for them. Sometimes, they may be better served through one of our Transfer Partners due to the intervention needed, ongoing care required or a quieter setting for that individual. We want our animals to put their best paw forward. If you are a 501c3 rescue and are interested in partnering with WCAC to help this pet, and others, you can find more information on how to help at: https://www.wakegov.com/departments-government/animal-services/community-partners/transfer-program If this is your pet, please contact us immediately at AnimalCenter@wake.gov Primary Color: White Weight: 11.5 Age: 8yrs 0mths 0wks
