Story
I adopted Gidget from my local shelter. She is a very sweet dog and very well-mannered for her age (10 months). She already knows sit, down, and leave it, and working on drop it and coming when called. She is a playful pup and loves to run around my backyard. With slow introductions, she has done well with my cats, and does best with my more confident, dog-friendly cat. Gidget LOVES to meet new people, and usually automatically sits when meeting them. She also loves my 7-yr old niece (I have not seen her around younger children). Once she’s gotten her energy out, Gidget enjoys cuddling on the couch. We've been working on crate training, but she has been able to be left out in a room without being destructive for a full workday. She is dog-reactive, which we’ve been working on, and she’s already shown improvement. Any adopter will need to be willing to continue to work on that with her. Overall, she’s a great companion and I think she will grow up to be a wonderful dog.

Not good with kids, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Tango is a 5-year-old, 61-pound blockheaded bundle of love whose big bowling-ball head and even bigger heart instantly win people over. From the moment he steps out of his kennel—calm, easy, and ready to go—it’s clear this boy is something special. Tango seems to be housetrained and goes potty right away when he gets outside. On leash, he starts off strong but settles into moderate pulling once he gets into his groove. He needs a little boost into the car and can be a bit anxious during rides, but he settles with gentle pets and treats. Once the door opens, he’s eager to hop out and get moving—so a tether is a must! During playtime, Tango loves to explore and run around. He’s a big fan of toys, though soft ones don’t last long with him—supervision is recommended! Food and treats are his greatest motivators (and weaknesses), so be prepared for some adorable begging. He knows “sit,” though his patience for holding it isn’t exactly his strong suit. Tango’s affectionate personality shines through in everything he does. He’s wiggly, loves attention, and is especially fond of face kisses—because of his enthusiasm, he’d do best in a home without small kids he could accidentally knock over. He’s also a total champ for his bath, showing just how good-natured he is. Tango is looking for a family who embraces his goofy charm, continues his training, and enjoys plenty of cuddles and adventures together. With his affectionate spirit and joyful energy, he’s ready to fill your home with love and laughter. As always, we strongly recommend that resident dogs meet any new potential canine family members. If bringing a resident dog for a dog to dog test, please bring proof of Rabies, DHPP, and Bordetella vaccines. To meet your new pet, come to Guilford County Animal Services between 12 and 4 any day except Tuesday!

Percy is awesome. My son has had him since he was 11. Since he is going to college Percy will be left alone more frequently as I work all the time. I have never had any issues with leaving him by himself… however I can’t give him the attention he deserves or needs alone. I would like for him to be with a true dog lover as I don't want him to go with someone who just wants a dog . He needs a forever home. He is a sweet boy and shows so much love.

Good with dogs,
Story
Meet Courage! Available for adoption through Guilford County Animal Services Male Petite boxer mix 5 months old 23 lbs Crate trained Good with dogs Treat and toy motivated Courage was brought in as a stray. He's now being fostered and we are gaing insight to help find his match. He's slowly coming out of his shell as he regains trust in people. Right now, Courage doesn't care for the leash, but we are working on desensitizing him. I expect him to be very gentle once we get him walking on a leash. For this reason, his best match would have a fenced area directly attached to his new home. While he can be carried, he would adjust more quickly if he doesn't have to be carried out to potty. While Courage has maintained a spotless crate enjoying a nice dog bed without tearing it up, he's still working on house training. He will use pee pads in two places we made available in two rooms for accidents. He has pretty good aim and you can tell he doesn't like a messy area because he'll fold them up if you don't get the soiled pads up fast enough. Courage doesn't poop inside, but is working on holding his pee after playing inside. Potty breaks about every 20 minutes when playing and hourly when sleeping outside the crate in his gated room keeps pee pads from being used. He can hold it 4 hours during the day and 9 hours overnight in the crate with no messes. Courage loves pestering his doggy foster sisters. He is relatively good at reading their cues, but may need a person to help him settle occasionally. It's easily done because he loves toys and treats! He's also starting to enjoy a good pet and snuggle with his person. They just have to prove they are nice, gentle, and can be trusted. As always, we strongly recommend bringing any resident dogs to the shelter for a meet and greet with potential new family members to be sure it's a good match. If bringing a dog for a meet and greet, please bring proof of up to date rabies, bordetella, and DHPP vaccines. If you would like to meet Courage please reach out to his foster Pawrent at 336-508-7229!

Story
Meet Rocko! At 8 years old and 52 lbs, Rocko is every bit as sweet and soulful as he looks. He’s a calm, loving Boxer mix with a gentle demeanor and a heart full of devotion for his people. Rocko is an excellent adventure buddy. He may pull strongly at first or when he’s excited, but once he settles into a rhythm, he walks beautifully. On trails and longer walks, he stays focused, listens well, and maintains an easy, steady pace. He shows no interest in wildlife and is simply happy to explore alongside his human. This boy is incredibly smart and highly treat-motivated. He loves training, picks up on routines quickly, and is very attentive. He already knows sit, shake, down, wait, “eh eh,” no, and his name, and he accepts treats with perfect manners. With continued structure, he should keep making great progress with leash skills. He’s also likely house-trained based on his clean habits and consistency. Rocko shows some playful curiosity with toys and will adorably pounce on them like a cat, though his interest usually fades quickly. What he *really* loves is companionship — but not in a clingy way. At the shelter he can seem reserved, but in a home his affectionate side shines. He’ll softly rub against your legs like a cat, curl up next to you on the couch, and enjoy calm, cozy moments with his people. When he gets excited during petting he may get the slightest bit mouthy (with no pressure), but he’s very easy to redirect. Rocko is wonderfully polite in public. He meets people with friendly curiosity and relaxed body language. He’s comfortable around other dogs and remains calm and non-reactive, even in close proximity. He’s cooperative for baths, even willingly stepping into the tub on his own, and he rides well in the car. Rocko is affectionate, medium-energy, heartworm negative, and beautifully well-rounded — a steady, thoughtful companion who brings quiet warmth wherever he goes. If you’re looking for a gentle, loyal, loving best friend, Rocko is ready to brighten your life. As always, we strongly recommend that resident dogs meet any new potential canine family members. If bringing a resident dog for a dog-to-dog test, please bring proof of Rabies, DHPP, and Bordetella vaccines. To meet your new pet, come to Guilford County Animal Services between 12 and 4 any day except Tuesday!

Story
A few notes from Jax's amazing foster family! "Our newest foster Jax is available for adoption from Guilford County Animal Shelter! A big detail to consider that doesn't define him, but certainly makes him unique is he is completely blind and partly hard of hearing. But don't let that write you off! While he needs guidance navigating his walks outdoors, he has quickly learned the lay out of our home and gently finds his way around and loooves to stroll the fenced in back yard where he knows he is safe. We have lovingly nicknamed him Roomba! Car rides do make him nervous. However, slow gentle back roads with the window rolled down will make him crack a smile and hang that big block head out the window. He's estimated to be 10 years old, though I would question being more 12, is a stocky medium build, approximately 60-70 lbs, house trained, sleeps a solid 9 hrs, and doesn't make a peep! He loves cuddles and interaction, and loves dogs! I believe he would do great with other dogs in the home that also have more of a laid back quiet lifestyle that can give him guidance and companionship. Being blind, hyper barking dogs that would roughhouse may stress him out as he spends his down time gnawing on a bone and laying on his bed catching a snooze." As always, we strongly recommend bringing any resident dogs to the shelter for a meet and greet with potential new family members to be sure it's a good match. If bringing a dog for a meet and greet, please bring proof of up to date rabies, bordetella, and DHPP vaccines.
