Story
♥️ Hi - I’m OTIS 👋🏽 I’m an American Bulldog 🤍 and I’m told I’m the sweetest boy!!! 🥹 Sadly, I lived a life of neglect and abuse before this, but that’s all in the past now! 🙏🏽 I’m looking for my forever and ever home. 🏡🐕🌳☀️🌷 Please help me find a family to love me. 🙏🏽♥️ I’m so affectionate, sweet and listen very well! I also have excellent manners and always sit for treats, and I’m so gentle when I take them. I’m very quiet and only bark if I have to potty. 🚽 One big bellowing bark does the trick! I’m VERY reliably house-trained. I will happily go into a crate and sleep silently until you wake up… but I don’t need to be crated. I’m non-destructive and will only take what’s mine. 🦴 I love car rides 🚗 and love to stick my head out the window to sniff all the adventures waiting for me! I am low to medium energy and happy to just be near you. 🥹 When I’m outside in the yard, I will keep looking to make sure you’re still there. 💗 I learn things very quickly and I’m always watching my person for queues on what they want me to do next. I’m a very happy guy and I’m good with my doggie friends too!! I present as non dominant in my dog interactions. ♥️ They say I’m a GREAT boy! What do you think? Can you give me a chance to show you?! 🙏🏽♥️🥰🏡🐕☀️ Thanks for reading and for sharing my story🤍 📝 Past life 💔 This sweet, SWEET boy has such a sad story. He spent 5 years of his life tied up outside with a rope around his neck. 😭 He was so emaciated and he finally broke free to go looking for food. While roaming the streets of Memphis, he did find some kind people who gave him some food and water. Ultimately, he was picked up by animal control back in his old neighborhood. They called for help and Animal Control picked him up and took him to a high k*ll shelter. He had sores all over his body, indicating the rope around his neck was too short and he had very little room to move or lay down properly. He had no shelter and only filthy empty bowls were found on the property. Imagine living that way for 5 years. 💔 Yet he is triumphant in his healing and he is INCREDIBLY friendly, loving and amazing. His spirit is bright and all he wants is to be snuggled and loved. He is friendly with dogs, and non dominant in his interactions. He did great at the groomer, and impressed the whole salon with his loving and sweet nature. He loved all of the dogs. He will be neutered by the rescue prior to adoption. If you can help by FOSTERING or ADOPTING OTIS, please contact Julie on 919 624 0059

Story
All interested people should submit an adoption application as their first step. Hi there… my name is  Tootsie Roll.   Yes, like the candy. Sweet, a little round, and impossible not to love.  I’m a proud 9-year-old lady weighing in at a delightfully plump 38 pounds of pure snuggle material. My favorite hobbies include napping, lounging, supervising from a comfy bed, and perfecting the art of doing absolutely nothing. I am, as the humans say,  the chillest dog ever. My world changed recently when my beloved owner had to move into a nursing home. It was very sad for both of us, but I know she would want me to find another cozy place to rest my head and another kind human to love. I have so much love left to give. Let me tell you a little about my vibe: • I sleep most of the day (beauty rest is important at my age). • I get along with other dogs just fine… as long as they understand I am not interested in CrossFit or WWE wrestling. If someone gets a little too rowdy, I’ll politely say, “Excuse me, that’s enough,” with a tiny growl — and then go back to my nap. • I absolutely adore people. I’m friendly, gentle, and happiest when I’m simply near you. I’m not looking for adventure. I’m looking for companionship. A soft couch. A warm lap. A quiet routine. Maybe a nice older person or couple who also appreciates a slower pace of life. We could watch TV together. Take short strolls. Share snacks (I mean… you can have most of them).  Because I’m a mature gal, a home without a lot of stairs would be ideal. My little legs prefer comfort over cardio these days.  If you’re searching for an easygoing best friend who just wants to hang out and love you with her whole chocolatey heart, I might be your girl.  All pets adopted from GDHS are spayed or neutered, have vaccinations brought up to date, are on heartworm preventative (dogs), FIV/FELV tested (cats) and microchipped. The Greater Derry Humane Society does not have a physical shelter, and all visits are by appointment only. March 3, 2026, 11:48 am

Story
Rusty is a young male dog with a lot of love to give! He is athletic, playful, funny, and loyal. Rusty is very affectionate and loves to be around his human friends. He enjoys going on walks and rolling around in the grass. He's often described as being a gentle and curious soul who is always up for an adventure. He can be a bit timid at first, but he'll quickly warm up to you with some gentle affection and a game of fetch. He's an intelligent dog who is always up for learning new tricks and he's always listening out for his name being called! Although Rusty has all the makings of a great companion. If you're looking for a funny and friendly furry friend, Rusty is the one for you! Please complete an application at https://form.jotform.com/212445130159145

Story
Hello, I'm Monique! Now, don't let my name fool you, I'm a boy. Quite the goofball, if I do say so myself. I ended up here at the shelter after a hilarious mix-up. I was playing fetch with my human, and when I went to retrieve the ball, I got distracted by a squirrel. I chased it, ended up lost, and voila! Here I am. I'm a bit shy at first, but once we get to know each other, you'll see my playful side. I'm like a puppy version of a stand-up comedian. I promise to fill your life with laughter, love, and endless games of fetch. Adopt me, let's make our own fun stories!
