Story
This is Penny. She is a wonderfully sweet, gentle, and quiet girl (probably about 2-3). She was found running on the streets with the white male in the pics, both filthy and underweight. We are fostering them, but have 2 dogs of our own so need to rehome them. They are very bonded, so it would be ideal if we could rehome them together, although she seems more independent than him. She';s very sweet and loves cuddles. She's great with other dogs and kids, but not tested with cats. She settles well in the car and is fully house-trained. There is no food or toy aggression, and she loves playing with toys! She really is a wonderful girl with an amazing temperament. Ideally she'd be rehomed with the white male in the photos (brother/son?), but a home with other pets or even as a solo dog, I think she would be fine. She does love to play though, so a buddy would be good. She is not fixed yet, but we can do that before adoption.

Story
This is Buster. He is a very sweet, young (2-sih?) boy. He was found running on the streets with the brindle female in the pics, filthy and underweight. We are fostering them both, but have 2 dogs of our own so need to rehome them. They are very bonded, so it would be ideal if we could rehome them together. He is a very sweet boy, but still learning some manners when it comes to personal space. He's gentle as can be and great with other dogs and kids. He is not tested with cats. He loves to cuddle. He really is a wonderful boy. He's great in cars and will just go to sleep. He loves toys and since he is young, I would advise having toys for him to chew so he doesn't chew things that aren't for him. He does learn quickly though. He'd do best if rehomed with his brindle sister/mom (we don't know) as he really does adore her, but a home with other pets may be good for him if that's not possible so he has company. He is not fixed yet, but we can do that before adoption if needed.

Story
Please contact my foster at: melissa.kenealy@gmail.comMeet Charlie Brown, a young dog with a heart full of joy and a spirit full of curiosity. His sweet demeanor is only matched by his playful energy! Charlie Brown has a knack for making everyone around him smile with his goofy antics and funny tricks. His friendly nature makes him the perfect companion for other dogs who can keep up with his crazy play style! As night falls, Charlie Brown turns into a cuddly furball, sleeping soundly till dawn. Loyalty runs in his veins, making him a steadfast companion. He is also non-destructive, ensuring your home stays just as you left it (minus the occasional curious gander). Charlie Brown is waiting for a family that will embrace his love and energy. His playful spirit and loyal heart make him the perfect addition to any home looking for a dose of joy and a lifetime of companionship. Some other traits worth noting: -working on loose leash walking/leash training -takes treats gently and loves treats -plays tug of war with foster sibling -does great in the car-has done well in brewery and cafe settings-needs a cat free home-has improved with mouthy behavior but would still do best without children under 12 in the home.-loves to chew on sticks and stuffies, need to seperate during feeding

Story
  Meet Gloria – Your Next Best Friend! 12 Weeks Old | Hound/Boxer Mix | &#226&#154&#150&#239&#184&#143 21 lbs   Say hello to Gloria, the sweetest little soul with big puppy eyes and a heart full of love. This 12-week-old hound/boxer mix is the perfect blend of playful energy and laid-back charm. Whether she’s bounding across the yard or enjoying a quiet moment on her favorite bed, Gloria is guaranteed to make your heart melt.   Gloria greets her humans with the softest, cutest barks and a joyful wagging tail, ready to brighten your day. She’s wonderful with kids and other dogs—making her a fantastic fit for families or homes with furry siblings.   Mornings with Gloria are a treat—she stretches, pauses thoughtfully, and slowly decides if it’s time to rise and shine. She’s already showing promise with crate training—while she may whimper for a moment, she quickly settles in and sleeps soundly with no accidents so far.   Outside, Gloria is full of puppy joy, and loves nothing more than romping around in the yard and playing with her people. And she has the cutest quirks—like drinking her water while lying down and treating her beloved dog bed like a security blanket. It’s her cozy little world, and she absolutely adores it.   If you’re looking for a loving, silly, soulful pup to grow up with and love endlessly, Gloria is ready to meet you.   Are you her forever home?   PLEASE NOTE:  Our dogs are transported from Tennessee to meeting places in the states where we have posted.  Further information about us is given on our Adopt-A-Pet site.  The adoption fees vary and will be provided as well as noted on the application you receive.  Contact us at 615-661-5333 or ccrnewengland@gmail.comMay 13, 2025, 7:38 pm

Story
Breed: Boxer / American Bulldog? maybe? Size: Large; currently 70+ lbs Estimated Birthday: 3/2/2020 House-Trained: Yes Crate-Trained: Yes, and kennels on command! Kid-Friendly: Needs a home with kids over 12 years --============================== Bella Vida is looking for her perfect family! She is a 3 or 4 year old Bulldog mix weighing about 85-90 lbs. This silly girl ate a sock and her previous owner could not afford the surgery. C2CND stepped in and rescued her. She’s a high energy dog who would do best with a fence and a privacy fence would be even better. She will bark when she needs to go outside. Bella is crate and potty trained. She is a very affectionate dog once she warms up to you and really needs a patient, assertive owner who will work with her. She also needs an active family who exercises her frequently. Her foster notices that Bella’s behavior is heavily influenced by the amount of exercise/activity she receives and her anxiety levels. Bella would fetch a ball for hours if you let her. She does go on walks but sometimes gets distracted. She loves to snuggle and be near her human. She also likes to chew on bones (Benebones seems to be her favorite). Her foster says Bella is a dominant personality who is dog selective and dog aggressive. Bella is still working on her leash skills, while she does well on the leash most of the time, she can be easily distracted. Slow introductions are best. Bella would fit best with a family with teenagers or no young kids and as the only dog. Before emailing- please read: - Yes, this dog is available for adoption - The adoption fee for Bella Vida is $365 - Apply at c2cnd.org - The adoption fee covers their age appropriate shots, microchip, deworming, spay/neuter, and any other medical expenses while in our care. - Local adopters only. Due to our thorough adoption process including home visits, we limit our adoptions to local families in the greater Charlotte area. - If you have any additional questions, email us at dogs@c2cnd.org and we will respond as soon as possible!
