SCRUMPTIOUS ALERT!!!  Meet MAX! Max may just have the cutest, wiggliest butt in town (see video for proof!).         This bouncy boy cannot wait to wiggle his way into his new life.  Max is an ADORABLE and squatty low rider!!! He is 12 years ‘young’ – a sweet gray-blue pup, who looks like and has the energy of a much younger pup. He’s a bundle of energy in a smaller package!  And if you want to watch a good movie, MAX would be by your side getting in a little snuggle and nap time. And luckily, MAX is not just good-looking – he has lots of other great things going for him: He loves walks and is great on leash. He’s a great sniffer and loves to explore. He is potty trained!  He is used to a big family with lots of children of all ages and lots of activities.  He has lived with dogs as well. He knows some basic commands; he seems to know his name, sit, ‘find it’. Max has some vision issues but he does not let that stop him!    He’s eager to join his new family on walks, play time, chill time... He’s all around SCRUMPTIOUS!  This friendly boy is waiting to meet you!Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.April 25, 2024, 5:29 pm

Even though Odie was abandoned by his previous family, he still loves people.  He gets along with other dogs and children.  He is high energy and hasn't learned to meet other dogs.  He can be a bit intimidating to other dogs.  His foster brother is a small 13 yr old rat terrier and Odie loves to sleep with him.  It takes a slow introduction for him to settle down.   If you want a hiking or camping buddy, Odie is your guy.  Playing fetch and tug are also favorite things that he likes.  He would love a family who would treat him like a family member.  .  He has already had his dental and is ready to start his new life as a family member.  If you are interested, please contact Rainbow Rescue at 757-472-1583 or rainbowanimalrescueva@gmail.comApril 25, 2024, 2:30 pm

Bruce is a very sweet dog! He loves people so much, even little kids and babies. He can be very lazy but enjoys running around at a dog park on a sunny day. He gets along well with other dogs of any size, however, we are unsure of his personality around cats and other animals. He enjoys chilling on the couch and watching tv with you. He doesn’t have any concerning behaviors. We hope you love Bruce as much as we do!

Story
This is our sweet precious Lucy. Lucy had an owner but her owner used to turn her out every day to wander the streets. A friend of the rescue would pick her up when she saw her and bring her home. She feared that Lucy would get hit by a car so one day when she returned her home, she asked the owners if they would surrender her to a rescue. They agreed and Lucy arrived here happy as a clam. She's a big girl, not fat, just a big girl. She's a very gentle big girl, sleeps in my bed with all the little ones sleeping on top of her! She loves children and cats. She was heart worm positive when she arrived but we have cleared all of that up. Lucy maybe a little older at 8 years but she has the energy of a puppy. She loves to play all day with the rest of the shelter dogs. She is spayed, fully vaccinated and house broken. She needs her forever home, could that be you? PLEASE NOTE THAT WE ARE LOCATED IN TENNESSEE AND YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO MEET OUR PETS PRIOR TO ADOPTION! ADOPTION FEE $350

Story
Spring is a time for flowers to bloom, and that includes our very own Petunia! Petunia is a very sweet Boxer mix, who is a little undersocialized but ultimately LOVES people! She's a favorite around the kennel and often goes out on the town for our Visiting Paws and Beach Buddies programs. She is a perfect girl while out on trips, does well on a leash, and is always up for her next car ride adventure. Petunia is looking to join a family with lots of dog experience who can help her be the best version of herself. She'll be thrilled if her family is at home most of the time or is able to take her along wherever they go! She shared her previous home with another dog, but the two did not get along. Because of this, we are recommending she be the only canine in the home. Likewise, Petunia would do best with older children (12+) because she can be particular about her food and her things. If you have any questions about Petunia, please see a kennel technician.

Our pets are physically located and fostered in NC until adopted. Once adopted we can transport to you or meet 1/2 way for the cost of our gas. We are 5 1/2 hrs west of Virginia Beach. Our pets are physically located and fostered in NC until adopted. Once adopted we can transport to you. We have a cost effective transporter that has stops in most north eastern states. Transport runs every 2 weeks. Please note! Don't just apply just because this dog has a cheap adopt fee. You must prove you can afford to adopt regardless! I find that most of the folks who apply for my reduced fee dogs back out when they realize they are still responsible for the transport fee. If this applies to you please don't waste our time! To the VA Beach area we can transport to your location for $200 or we can do halfway for $100. This will cover just my gas with today's high gas prices. You are welcome to drive to us in Mt.Airy, NC to pick up! Scarlett was born 2-1-21. Her mom was a german shepherd golden mix. We are not positive what dad was. Scarlett is active and very loving. She is good with people and ok with other dogs her size. She is too playful for small dogs. She needs a large dog only home. She is not good with cats. She needs an active home with room to run. She would not do well in a cramped up apartment with no exercise. She is house trained and crate trained, This baby will go home spayed and current on vaccinations, deworming, flea preventives, started on heartworm prevention and microchipped. This pup will receive a health certificate issued by our vet prior to going home. The adopter will get all his health records with the adoption. We require a prescreen application to apply.

Meet Meraki! Meraki is such a special lady! She is super quiet, very timid at first but blossoms when she has a doggie friend to hang and play with. We are unsure about cats because she has never met one! Meraki loves her toys, belly rubs and just being near her human and dog friends. Meraki lived her prior life in a pen with not much human contact, only dogs so she will require patience and understanding BUT she is so worth it! If you would like to meet Meraki, please go to our website at k9newlife.org and fill out our online adoption application! * all of our dogs are in individual foster homes so an appointment must be made for a meet and greet
