Story
Meet Pearl! This tiny tot was found as a stray, and her owners never reclaimed for her. She has since settled in with a foster family who calls her “so sweet and practically perfect”. They report she has had 0 accidents in the house, and sleeps through the night like an angel. She gets along with her resident dog-foster siblings, and enjoys going for walks or strolling the yard with them. Pearl does seem to have some seasonal itchiness/allergies that her new family may need to maintain. We will have our veterinarian thoroughly assess her, and give her an allergy injection before adoption. Pearl will be spayed, UTD on vaccines, microchipped, heartowrm tested, and have full bloodwork. She will come with 12 months of heart worm prevention and 30 days of Trupanion pet insurance.

Story
Best friend Buddy is just that.  He is a happy go lucky little guy that does not meet a stranger.  He is good with dogs, cats and people of all ages.  Buddy always seems to be smiling.  This sweet little guy will be an excellent addition to the right family.  He is super energetic and full of energy.  He loves to play and has a big time with his foster brothers and sisters.  They run and play both inside and outside so a fenced in year would be nice.  A home with another same size and age dog to play with would be perfect for Buddy. While he loves everyone he would do better in a home without toddlers.  Buddy is doggie door trained and he walks well on a leash.  This little cutie also rides great in the car.  He just settles down and sits in the seat.  Buddy is the perfect co-pilot.  He would be a great companion for someone that would take him places.   Buddy is a very social guy.  Buddy is 2-3 years old and he weighs 16 lbs.  He has been neutered and is current on all his shots and microchipped.  Buddy has a little issue with his eyes (they have rolled under and the lashes irritate the eyes).  He is scheduled for surgery on 5/8 and will be ready to go to his forever home 2 weeks after that.  There will be no long term affects from this and he will not need any eye medicine once the lids have healed.  This charmer is worth the wait.  To be considered for Buddy's forever home please contact Vivienne at viviennejames@comcast.net.  APPROVED APPLICATION AND ADOPTION FEE REQUIRED.  (Buddy is currently in Tennessee but can be transported north upon adoption.)June 1, 2023, 10:46 pm

Story
Hi! Thanks for noticing me! I will be at the Norfolk Animal Care & Adoption Center (NACC) on a stray hold until 6/12 while I wait for my owner(s) to come find me. As I am still settling into my new environment, NACC is currently not accepting adoption applications on me. Requests for further information on how to adopt me will not be returned at this time, so please make sure to check out everyone else at NACC for adoption!We are NOT accepting applications at this time.*Disclaimer* This animal may have maximum number of applications or already be adopted. Our computer software takes 1-2 hours to refresh when an animal leaves the shelter. Please come visit the shelter or call us at 757-441-5505 to get the most up to date information on each animal.

Story
Please welcome Sparky to the 4 PAWS family! He came to us in April through Unchain America after his owner passed away. Sparky is a 10 + year old Shih Tzu, that was hit by a car a few years ago (he takes medication daily for pain). Sparky is extremely sweet, mostly calm except when he can’t see his person (he gets anxious & will bark/whine), loves to play with squeaky toys, and carries his toy where ever he goes, he even takes it outside with him. He does well with both cats and dogs; he has not been tested with children. It would be best if Sparky's new family was home a lot or able to take him along, he does have non-destructive separation anxiety. Sparky is a wonderful dog with a great personality and a lot of life left to live, if you are looking for an older dog he might be your guy! If you are interested in adoption; DO NOT CALL, please complete an online application on 4 Paws Animal Rescue's website at www.4pawz.org. We verify the care of past/current pets. Our goal is to have the very best home for all our dogs and cats, and therefore, we reserve the right to approve or deny an application based on what we determine is in the pet's best interest. #dogsareworthit #adoptdontshop #shihtzu #rescueisthebestbreed #lovedogs #dogs #dogsareacommittment
