Story
Meet Marley - The 90-Pound Gentle Goofball! Marley is a giant sweetheart wrapped in a 90-pound package of joy. This big boy might look impressive, but on the inside he's basically a puppy-silly, soft, and eager to make friends.He's wonderfully polite, too. Marley knows how to sit and takes treats gently, showing off his excellent manners. When meeting new people, he doesn't jump-he simply drops into an enthusiastic play bow, as if to say, "Hi! Wanna be best friends?" He's a lovable galoot through and through.In the kennel, Marley can be a bit barky, but once he's out in the yard, he's all fun and games. Before his playmate even arrived, he busted out the zoomies to let everyone know he was ready to party. In playgroups, Marley is a big meaty boy with a heart of gold. He offers fantastic play bows, loves lively play, and brings cheerful energy to the whole yard.Marley is the perfect combo of gentle manners and goofy charm. If you're looking for a big-hearted buddy who'll bring endless smiles and silliness into your life, Marley might be your guy.If you're interested in learning more about him, please reach out to our volunteer matchmakers at wcac.matchmaker@gmail.com with the subject line "Marley, 260045".He is up to date on vaccinations, flea/tick, and heartworm prevention, is microchipped, and will be neutered prior to going home. If you have cats, we recommend slow introductions over time. If you have children in your home, we recommend supervision between animals and children at all times. Primary Color: Brown Secondary Color: White Weight: 86 Age: 5yrs 7mths 2wks

Story
I've had brodie for 3 and a half years, I got it at 6 months old. I am married with 4 kids and we all love brodie. My yougest daughter was six months old when brodie join the family, they grew up together. My yougest daughter ride him time to time and he loves it. Hes a great house dog. Brodie is potty trained, his recall is a whistle and with the snap of your fingers means to go. I'm hoping to find someone with a fenced in back yard where brodie came roam and run. That's what he needs and I can't provide that. My living situation isn't ideal and brodie deserves better. He is super playful and love attention, he's so spoiled.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. All dogs on the Best Friend Pet Adoption  website ARE available and require an approved Best Friend Pet Adoption application before you can be considered or meet any of our dogs.  The link to our application is   https://toolkit.rescuegroups.org/of/f?c=WHMSYCNC        Pluto is an affectionate, 70 pound, neutered male dog. He is sweet, happy, and up-to-date on his vaccinations. He is around 10 years old.    Pluto is great with people (including kids) and most dogs. His favorite things include pets, cuddles, naps, and chew toys. He keeps himself entertained but will play fetch and enjoys walks and road trips.    Pluto plays well with our other dogs, however, we have noticed that he can be possessive over toys if boundaries are not set. He is house-trained and not possessive over food. He knows basic commands like come, sit, drop, paw, etc. He is quiet and will only briefly bark when we have a package or visitor. He will use the bathroom in a fenced yard or on walks. He has met one cat. He was not aggressive but was very interested. He might tolerate cats as he did learn to ignore our chickens. We feel Pluto could be with other dogs or as an only dog.    Pluto is crate trained; however, he is not crated at his foster home. He is well mannered so he is allowed unsupervised access to most of the house. He knows where he is allowed to go and what toys he can play with. Rarely will he chew up things he is not supposed to (he likes to tear up cardboard boxes). He is used to us being gone during the day for work and seems to spend most of the day sleeping or playing with our other dog.   As he ages, his back legs are getting weaker. He has learned how to swim, which has helped strengthen his muscles. He loves to swim and now gets overly excited when we visit the pool. Pluto would need an owner who is experienced in caring for an older, larger dog and give him the patience he needs. He requires extra time to get up and moving and assistance getting into vehicles.    At night, Pluto sleeps on a couch, recliner, or dog bed depending on his preference. He does prefer to sleep with us but snores way too loud. Pluto is a wonderful dog who is gentle, and friendly. He is always ready for attention, but will keep himself busy chewing on toys or napping if you are busy. He will make a great family pet. Could you consider giving him the loving home he deserves?    EVERY DOG HAS A STORY: Pluto was found abandoned on the side of the road in October 2023. A BFPA volunteer found him and took him in.  We are helping this sweet boy find his forever home.      Some of the information contained in this biography includes approximations based on our expertise and is not guaranteed.    Applicants should ideally live no further than one hour from Cary NC.  Our foster guardians deliver dogs to their new homes for adoption trials and we do home visits to finalize adoptions.  For the perfect home for Pluto, we will considered approved applicants who live a bit further away from the Triangle area of NC.    INTERESTED IN ADOPTING PLUTO?
