Story
Hi! I’m Delaney. I’ve been told I have the most beautiful eyes. I’m not exactly sure what makes them special, but I do know that when people look at me, they smile… and that makes my whole body wiggle with happiness. I’m a 12-week-old Pittie Mix puppy, and my favorite thing in the world is simply being a happy little puppy. I love discovering toys, bouncing around with my zoomies, and exploring anything new I can find. When I finally run out of energy, my next favorite thing is curling up close for snuggles. The people taking care of me say I have the sweetest personality. I just really love everyone I meet. Big people, little people, dogs, and even cats all seem like friends to me. If you sit down near me, I’ll probably come right over to say hello and give you a few puppy kisses. Right now I’m learning all about the world and how to be the best dog I can be. With a family to love me, guide me, and grow up with me, I know I’ll become the most loyal best friend you could ever ask for. I’m already spayed, microchipped, and up to date on my age-appropriate vaccines, so I’m ready to start the next chapter of my life with my forever family. The only thing I’m missing is a home where I can play, learn, and love my people with my whole little heart. Maybe you’re the family I’ve been waiting for. You can submit a no-obligation adoption application at: www.AlmostHomeDogRescueNC.com You can also follow my rescue on Facebook @AlmostHomeDogRescueNC to see updates about me and my friends. I can’t wait to meet my forever family. I have a feeling they’re going to love my eyes… but even more, they’re going to love me.

Attention: This is a courtesy posting only! This pet is NOT available through Mountain Pet Rescue.  Please do NOT contact MPR for information about the pet or apply to adopt this pet on the MPR website.  Contact thallis.santesteban@gmail.com or 210-254-3078 for more information or to adopt the pet.Meet Coco, a loyal and affectionate three-year-old Pit Bull Terrier mix from Asheville, NC, whose big heart is matched only by his love for playtime and cuddles! With his partially brindled black-and-white coat and soulful eyes, Coco is a true companion dog—one who wants to be by your side, whether chasing after his favorite ball or curling up for a relaxing evening on the couch.Coco is a high-energy pup who thrives on activity. He absolutely loves playing fetch, chewing on a good bone, and soaking up all the affection he can get. He’s a smart boy who knows commands like sit, stay and go to your place, and even responds excitedly to “Do you want your food?”—especially if it involves his favorite treats like cheese or apple slices!Because Coco can be reactive when meeting new dogs, he’s looking for a home where he can get some support in this area. He’s never shown aggression toward people, but due to his size and strong personality, a household without small children would be the best fit. A secure, fenced yard would be ideal for him to burn off energy, but he’ll also need a patient and experienced pet parent who can manage his leash reactivity and give him structured exercise.At home, Coco is a loving, devoted companion who just wants to be near his favorite people! He’ll happily rest his head on your lap, lean in for pets, or simply sit close by, enjoying your presence. He sleeps soundly in his own space, eats well and is house-trained, neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations—ready for his new adventure with his next loving family!Are you looking for a playful, loyal, and affectionate companion who will love you unconditionally? Then reach out today at thallis.santesteban@gmail.com or 210-254-3078 to learn more about Coco!  All Mountain Pet Rescue (Asheville) animals are up-to-date on vaccinations, spayed/neutered and micro-chipped before adoption. Contact the foster parent or Mountain Pet Rescue at pets@mpravl.org for more information. Please note that visual breed identification of companion animals has been proven to be unreliable, so for most of our animals we provide a best guess at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each of our animals as an individual and do our best to describe and place pets based on personality not breed label.

Story
Tobby is very playful and sweet. Unfortunately, I can no longer keep him because my landlord has given me an ultimatum: I have to get rid of him. That's why I have to let him go. I haven't had any problems with him at all. I try to take him for walks whenever I can, and he's used to walking on a short leash. If I let it get a little long, he pulls a bit, but nothing out of the ordinary. I'm trying to find him another home so I don't have to take him to the shelter. So, if you're looking for a very energetic and protective puppy, Tobby is a great option. Thank you for your attention. My English isn't very good, so I'd appreciate it if you could send me a message if you're interested in Tobby, and we could make arrangements. Thanks.

She enjoys chewing on a Nyla bone chew.  She is better off being the only animal at home.  She needs good walks or a yard to run around in.  She tends to bark and pull for dogs she does not know, but is very friendly to others in my community. Cora is a talker and cute listener by tilting her head when you talk to her.  She sleeps on one side of my bed, but has a dog bed if needed. Cora knows a number of commands including get a ball, get something to chew (one of her toys).Cora is a loving, fun dog.  I hope you get a chance to meet her.  Contact me today at rv4rob@gmail.com or 704-577-0679 to learn more about sweet Cora!

His sweet kisses and smothering cuddles make for a companion you didn’t even know you were missing! His loyalty to his adults shines bright.  Wherever you go, he goes, and he never strays too far away. Copper loves hard and deeply and always wants to be with you during play time as well or just hanging on the couch watching TV! He’ll never turn down a good treat, good belly rub and/or chew toy except for maybe an hour or two of baking in the sun! Which has proven to be his all time favorite thing! Cats and children are definitely not Copper’s forte; he does best with his adult humans and possibly one other dog! He’s going to fit right in with a home that has a fenced-in back yard or lots of walks, lots of play time, a outdoor area where he can sun bake as well as some alone time to catch up on his Z’s for the day! He’ll love anyone who loves him right back, and he appreciates the hugs and kisses from his humans!Contact Chelsea Davis at 828-747-5838 or Chelslb2001@gmail.com today to learn more about snuggly Copper!
