Story
Meet Petunia 🌸 Petunia’s story started with hardship, but you’d never know it from the way she looks at the world now. She was found as a stray by a couple on vacation — severely underweight and covered in bite wounds from other dogs. Since coming into Sarge’s Animal Rescue, Petunia has received the medical care, nutrition, and gentle support she needed to heal. Through it all, she’s kept her heart wide open and her eyes forward. Petunia is a total people-lover who dreams of being the spoiled lap dog she was always meant to be. She bonds quickly with humans, loves attention, and is happiest when she’s snuggled up close to her person. She walks nicely on a leash, enjoys staying cozy in a warm sweater, and never says no to a good Kong. Because of her past experiences, Petunia can be avoidant with other dogs. However, she does well with calm, polite, and respectful pups who give her space and move at her pace. She hasn’t met cats yet, but with slow, thoughtful introductions, we believe she could adjust well. Petunia is still discovering what it feels like to be truly loved and safe — and she’s more than ready to give that love right back. If you’re looking for a gentle, affectionate companion who will cherish every cuddle, Petunia is your girl.

Story
Meet Cher — a petite pitbull mix with a big personality and an even bigger heart 💖 At just 2 years old and 32 pounds, Cher is smaller than she looks in photos but packed with charm, love, and playful energy. Cher’s story began when she was found as a stray while pregnant. She spent time in a caring foster home where she safely raised her puppies and proved what a devoted, resilient mama she is. Now that her babies have grown, it’s finally Cher’s turn to find the forever home she deserves. Cher is crate trained, housetrained, and highly food motivated, which makes continued training fun and rewarding. She settles in nicely once she feels comfortable but still has plenty of playful spirit — expect zoomies, toy time, and happy bursts of energy. When playtime is over, Cher’s favorite place is right next to her people, curled up and cuddling. She does well with cats and can be dog selective, so dog meets are recommended to ensure the right fit. Cher would thrive with a family who will give her both affection and outlets for her playful side. If you’re looking for a sweet, snuggly companion who’s ready to love with her whole heart, Cher is ready to steal yours.

Story
Hey there, friend! My name’s Daisy, and I’m about to turn 2 years old — woohoo! I’m told I’m a Husky–Terrier mix, but what really matters is that I’m 100% good girl. I’m a happy, playful pup who’s won over all the volunteers here at Haywood County Animal Services. They can’t resist my wagging tail and big smile when it’s time for a walk!I love toys (seriously, they’re the best!) and I’m already used to living in a home, so I know all about cozy naps and couch cuddles. I also love going on adventures — hiking, exploring, you name it.If you’re looking for a fun, loyal companion with a heart full of joy, I think we’d make a pretty great team!

Story
Hey there, I’m Ladye — 8 years young and officially crowned an “Oldie but a Goodie.” (It’s on my imaginary trophy, right next to “Best Couch Potato.”)Go ahead and take a good look — pretty fabulous, huh? Sure, I’m rocking a few thin patches of fur (think of it as my low-maintenance haircut). I’ve had a scrape or two in my day, and my hips sometimes click like an old record player, but hey, vintage is in!I’m a pro at lounging, snoring, and strategically placing myself on the comfiest cushion in the house. But don’t let my mellow vibe fool you — I still love a good game of fetch. I might not go for marathon rounds anymore, but I nail that “one perfect toss” every time. Quality over quantity, people!So, what do you say — want to spend your golden years with a golden gal like me? Bonus: I’ll let you control the TV remote… as long as there’s space on the couch for both of us.

Story
Charlie is a well mannered tripod one-eyed boy who does great in a crate, and he’s house trained. While Charlie won’t make a good brewery dog, he does make a perfect nap companion and is content waiting at home for you to return. Charlie can be uncomfortable and intimidated by men and strangers, so it’s best he keeps his distance and wears a muzzle in public. He is absolutely wonderful in the car and loves, loves, LOVES car rides. Charlie gives the best kisses and he’s waiting to share his love with a family who can understand and respect his limits. Ideally, he would be the only critter in the home, with no kids or young children. He is a perfect, well-mannered boy who knows basic commands such as sit, come, and stay. Thanks to Charlie’s Behaviorist, Tiffany, he can now cohabitate with other respectful and size appropriate dogs, but will require slow integration. Charlie is a mellow, laid-back boy who is comfortable waiting at home for his people to return. He is house & crate trained, and would love nothing more than a chill movie day! We are determined to find Charlie his forever family, but we’re also realistic that that will take some time. For now, Charlie would love to enjoy some time with a foster family. He’ll need a family who can meet him where he’s at, respect his limitations, and commit to working with him through his obstacles. Charlie is such a good boy and he deserves the world! Reach out if you're interested in fostering or adopting this very special boy. Charlie is currently being fostered in Columbus, OH.

Hashbrown

Boxer Hound (Unknown Type)

Male, 1 yr 4 mos
Waynesville, NC
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Hashbrown is the kind of dog who makes friends in record time and plays like he truly means it — rough, rowdy, and full of pure joy. If there’s another dog nearby who wants to wrestle, chase, and have an absolute blast, Hashie is already in position and ready to go. He thrives in canine company and would love a home with a playful dog buddy to match his energy. During his time with us, Hashbrown has been putting in the work. He knows his basic commands, has been polishing up his crate training so he can fully relax in his kennel, and his leash skills are nearly mastered. He’s a smart boy who genuinely enjoys learning and is always eager for what’s next — especially if it comes with praise, snacks, or a chance to show off how clever he is. At almost 70 pounds, Hashbrown is a big, lovable guy who firmly believes he’s actually a tiny baby. He’s looking for a cat-free home where he can stretch out, soak up attention, and claim his rightful spot on the couch. If you’re searching for a playful, affectionate dog with a big personality and an even bigger heart, Hashbrown is ready to be your guy.
