He is the sweetest boy. He is housetrained and rides well in a car. Koby came to the sanctuary at only 27 lbs! Since being in our care he has steadily put on weight. If you are looking for a well behaved sweet boy then look no further! He was adopted out and was returned 2 years later.

Story
(DOB 12/04/2024) You probably can't help but love Sid's white & black markings outlined with light pink around his ears, eyes and nose! He is even more adorable in person.  Sid is dog friendly and would probably just love another sweet doggie friend in his forever home! Sid often attendees doggie day care where he is often "the life of the paw-ty!" And since he really loves and gets excited when playing and romping around w/his 4-legged besties he sometimes forgets it's break time, so his parents will need to tell him it's time to chill for a bit. He just finds joy in goofin' around! A fenced yard isn't 100% required; however, it is on top of Sid's wish list, so he can run around with his pals! He is learning to walk nicely on a leash and does fairly well and doesn't pull much. He does love to snif, snif, snif around on his strolls. He is a little nervous of some things but working on his confidence. Walking with another doggie friend would probably be great and give him some extra confidence. He is good in the car and kinda just kinda chills out. He could be a good traveling companion. Sid is both cute and special. By special, we mean he is deaf, but that doesn't stop him at all! He is attentive and alert. As part of Sid’s $300 adoption fee, he will be neutered, microchipped, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, and current on his monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives. If you have questions about this sweet pup, you can email: Dogteam@pawsforlifenc.org. If you wish to adopt Sid, you can complete an online application for him under the Adopt a Pet Tab on our website: www.pawsforlifenc.org. ##2545139##

Story
Meet Zeus 🐾 Zeus is a sweet, sensitive young dog who’s still learning that the world can be a safe and happy place. He’s shy and cautious around new people—especially men—and can get anxious when things change. But once he learns to trust you, he’s incredibly affectionate and loyal. With his foster, he’s quiet, calm, and perfectly content to nap nearby during the workday. Zeus has an adorable mix of confidence and quirkiness—one ear stands tall while the other flops, and he prances like a little horse when he walks. He has a funny “talk-whine” when he wants to go outside and loves to “hunt” for sticks, proudly carrying them around or tossing them in the air to play by himself. 💫 Highlights: 🏡 House-trained and crate-trained 🦮 Walks nicely on leash—graceful prance included! 🚗 Rides calmly in the car 🐶 Enjoys dogs his size once he knows them 💤 Sleeps well through the night ❤️ Neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and heartworm negative 🏠 Ideal Home: Zeus would do best in a quieter home with patient adopters who can help him continue to build confidence. He’d love a fenced yard to stretch his legs and run, and he might enjoy having a gentle dog companion. He’d also be fine as an only dog with plenty of walks and attention. Because he can be nervous, dog-savvy older children would be best. With time, consistency, and love, Zeus will reward his adopter with deep trust, quiet companionship, and a lifetime of devotion. 💛
