Story
My name is Gunther.  It means Warrior.  I’m a little older guy who’s been through some stuff.  When I came here, I was so sick.  I had an upper-respiratory infection, a urinary tract infection, hookworms, heartworms, knee problems…I was so tired…I could barely walk and I was about 20 pounds under weight.  I battled back because I am a warrior.  But they tell me I’m also a goofball.  I like laying on the couch with my people; naps are my favorite thing. And food.  I like that a lot.  My people have cats and the little ones are fun to watch (sometimes the big ones are scary, even for a warrior).  Life is pretty good now, but I think I’d like my own person; one I don’t have to share with so many others.  Would you be my person?  Email AnimalRescueCarolina@yahoo.com to request an application.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.April 22, 2024, 7:27 pm

Story
FALL IN LOVE! I'm Starlight and my adorable factor is through the roof! I'm just waiting for you to come adopt me! I've never won a dog show, never rescued anyone from a well, and to tell the truth, never did anything heroic. I do love to play, love to have my belly rubbed and give GRADE A blue ribbon kisses. I love treats and toys and even tolerate baths (but I still don't understand why I have to take one). I'm stuck here so please come and rescue me and maybe someday you'll find I was able to rescue you. Starlight is spayed and looking for a forever home. The adoption fee includes age appropriate vaccinations and deworming, Frontline application, spay or neuter surgery, collar, ID tag and a leash.  A $35 (non-refundable) deposit will hold the pet for you for 5 days.  The Shelter is open Tuesday and Thursday from 10 am to 4 pm, Wednesday from 10 am to 12 pm, Friday from 10 am to 3 pm, the first and third Saturday from 10 am to 2 pm and by appointment. Call 803-536-3918 for more information or email at: adopt@orangeburgspca.org  April 23, 2024, 12:14 am

Story
Poor Patch needs to be rehomed to no fault of his own. His owner has cancer and cannot care for him the way he needs. Now, her landlord has decided he doesn't want any bully breeds on the property,, even though he is in the process of being a service dog. A double whammy for both Patch and his owner. Patch is a sweet lover boy, who has never met a stranger. Because of his young age and excitement on meeting new friends, he greets you with jumping, which the owner has been working on. He is great with other dogs, unknow with cats, children (keep in mind because of him greeting with jumping right now, children might be apprehensive and may be knock down initially). If you have the love of the sweet bully breed and want to adopt a love bug, Patch is your man.

Story
Jonny Quest is an absolute delight! His playful and affectionate nature, combined with his intelligence and athleticism, make him an ideal companion for an active and loving family. His love for running and playing, especially with other dogs, highlights his sociable and energetic personality. While he may have a penchant for chasing cats, it's great to know that he hasn't caught any yet, and it's wise to consider a home without feline friends to ensure everyone's safety and comfort. With his health needs taken care of and his loving demeanor, Jonny Quest is ready to embark on his journey to find his forever home. Lucky Paws Rescue's commitment to finding him a loving and responsible family shows their dedication to ensuring he finds the perfect match. For those interested in welcoming Jonny Quest into their lives or learning more about him, contacting Lucky Paws Rescue at 839-333-7760 or visiting their website at www.luckypawsrescueinc.org would be an excellent next step. Let's help Jonny Quest find the loving forever family he deserves, where he can continue to spread joy and bring laughter to those around him!

This handsome pup is Sumo. We saw a Facebook post asking for help for this sweet stray, and we sprung into action! He came to us filthy, covered in sores, and barely able to walk. We estimate that Sumo is around 3 years old, and he is just a big lovebug. He enjoys his comfy beds, getting lots of scratches, and tasty treats. He walks great on a leash, and he seems to enjoy short outings. Sumo has begun his path to recovery, and now he is looking for the path to his forever home. We promised Sumo that the rest of his life, would be the best of his life. Could that be with you? ***APPLY TO ADOPT: finalvictoryrescue.com*** We provide meet-and-greets by appointment with an application on file.

This pretty princess is Esmerelda, a 5 year old bulldog mix who came to us from a local shelter. She is hilariously short and chunky, very affectionate, and just an overall happy-go-luckly gal! She gets along with other dogs, walks well on a leash, and loves a cuddle. Esmerelda is your typical couch potato, with low to medium energy, though she does enjoy playing outside and going for walks! She is working hard to master her household manners and basic commands so she can be the best family dog ever. Esmerelda's perfect family is out there somewhere, you just need to find her! We promised Esmerelda that the rest of her life, would be the best of her life.
