Story
JoJo is the sweetest girl who is two years young! She came to our rescue group with a litter of puppies; now they have all been adopted, and it is her turn to find a great forever home. She's energetic, playful, and loves to show her affection. She loves her daily walks; she does a happy dance, rushes to the door, and sits for her leash. She's athletic and enjoys running alongside her human foster brother on his skateboard. She's very well-behaved and listens to commands. She's fully house- and crate-trained. JoJo loves her humans and gets along well with other dogs. She is looking for a forever home where she can be the center of attention and receive all the love she deserves. She is an absolute gem and you will be charmed by her loving nature. She can't wait to meet you and be your best friend! ***PLEASE NOTE*** Are you interested in adopting this dog or another JCAPL pet you have seen?

Thurman

American Pit Bull Terrier

Male, Young
Smithfield, NC
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with kids, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Thurman was first found on the loose behind a store out in the woods. Unfortunately we never reached his original owner and because of this we don't know much about his upbringing or what he may have experienced up until that point. Upon bringing him home we quickly found he is clearly a people pleaser as he was already housebroken, knew plenty of tricks, and stays glued to your side. (Even if this means you might trip.) He has lived in home without other dogs for a year now and we're not quite sure how he'd take to living with new dogs. If Thurman is going to live with another dog I would encourage them to meet first to test the waters. Aside from that this is an incredibly loyal dog who is crate trained, spunky, and would do just about anything if you're offering a treat. He's got plenty of energy for going on walks and once tuckered out he'd sleep right on top of you given the opportunity. He's a good boy and I encourage you to give him a shot.

Hi there! My name is Lily. I was born about 3/1/25. I’m a goofy, loving girl looking for my furever home! People love my natural socks and big ears. I think I’m pretty cool too! I enjoy being around people as much as possible, going on walks, playing, and snuggling! I’m good with other dogs and like car rides :) If you’re looking for an adventure buddy, go ahead and apply today! Looking forward to meeting you soon! ***PLEASE NOTE*** Are you interested in adopting this dog or another JCAPL pet you have seen?

Story
Daisy June (“DJ”) is looking for her forever home. She is about 2 years young, house- and crate-trained, dog social, and very people social. DJ is high energy and would love a running or cycling companion for daily exercise or family adventures. She is not for the novice dog owner or a home with very young children due to her desire to greet you with her whole being (but this is a work in-progress). She can self-entertain for hours, but to continue her success she should be crated if left alone. DJ is very affectionate and loves to snuggle during tv time. She is incredibly smart, wants to learn and please, and is very trainable. Currently she sleeps in her crate all night without a peep, but if she had the opportunity to sleep with her own person or people, she would be in total bliss. In the daytime she’s happy to play with toys, dog siblings, or sleep while human fosters are working. ***PLEASE NOTE*** Are you interested in adopting this dog or another JCAPL pet you have seen?
