Story
Rusty is an affectionate, easygoing guy who’s thriving in foster care. He settled in right away, picked out a favorite toy from a basket, and made himself at home. He`s a total cuddle bug who follows his foster around like a little shadow and loves to curl up in a lap for naps. He enjoys short bursts of play with squeaky toys, but his favorite thing is working on a pupcicle treat toy.He`s housetrained with no accidents reported and has good leash manners, though he may pull a bit if he spots another dog or wildlife—he’s easily redirected. Rusty rides well in the car with a seatbelt leash and has been calm and polite during outings. He greets new people gently without jumping or barking. He prefers not to share space with other dogs and we`re unsure about cats.

Story
`Roscoe is a big-headed, big-hearted cuddle bug who enjoys a good walk, sniffing games, and the occasional burst of zoomies before settling in as close as possible to his person. He loves puzzle toys, treats, and playtime, knows sit and down, and genuinely enjoys training. He does best with routine and enrichment and can entertain himself, but he’s also very people-focused and affectionate once he feels comfortable. Roscoe can be strong on leash and may pull, so continued leash training will be helpful. He has liked some of the dogs he’s met so far and would benefit from slow, planned, and monitored introductions to new people and pets. He appears housetrained, with some leeway needed during the first few days in a new routine. Roscoe can be a bit anxious at times, especially with car rides or brief separations, but he settles well with reassurance and structure.My adoption fee has been fully sponsored.Adopt me and pay $0.00!!!

Story
I was transferred to OCAS from another shelter. I`m a sweet gal and I have done well with staff handling me at the shelter. I can be a dog selective, meaning I do well with some dogs but not with others. Like all newly adopted pets, I will need slow, monitored introductions to new people or pets in a home. Visit this page for more information about properly introducing pets.Please consider adopting me, I`m a great dog!Foster notes on Megan:`We first stopped by Food Lion to get some canned dog food as a treat. I then drove to my house and she did great in the car just curious and but really wanted to seat beside me in the passenger seat. Megan and I then took a 30 min walk around my neighborhood and within minutes she learned that I didn`t like pulling and she responded with some quick corrections and walked by my side. We then came in side and she was curious about my home and just explored room to room and then enjoyed some food. Then we relaxed and she was respectful and did not come on the couch. We then took another walk and she remembered not to pull. Such a sweet, wonderful, intelligent lady! Very smart, a quick learner and doesn`t pull on the leash.`

Hello! I was surrendered to the shelter when my previous owner could no longer care for me. I am a little older, but I`m ready to have fun and I still have lots of love to give! I am reported to be good with cats, dogs, and kids in my previous home. All newly adopted pets will need slow, monitored introductions to new people or pets in a home.

Story
This sweet, gentle boy is a quiet soul who asks for very little—just a loving heart to call his own. He isn’t one to demand attention or steal the spotlight, but his calm presence and soft eyes speak volumes. There’s something deeply comforting about him, the kind of dog who’s happiest simply being near you.He moves through the world with a tender spirit, offering affection in subtle, meaningful ways. A slow tail wag, a gentle lean against your leg, a peaceful nap nearby—this is how he shows his love. He’s not the life of the party, but he is the steady, darling companion who brings warmth and calm into any room.This boy would thrive in a home that appreciates quiet moments, soft routines, and the beauty of a dog who loves deeply without asking for much in return. If you’re looking for a loyal friend with a gentle heart, he’s been waiting just for you.

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Meet Queen, a charming and sassy sidekick who`s equal parts snuggle bug, road trip companion, and toy-loving goofball. She’s all about her people and would happily follow you from room to room, or better yet, hop in the car for your next adventure. Queen is a professional passenger—calm, happy, and convinced that every ride needs her royal presence. She`s also potty trained, crate aware (though she’ll politely bark when she’s ready to come out), and great on leash with just a little pulling when she`s excited. Queen recently took on a 7-mile hike at Eno River State Park and absolutely crushed it. Suspension bridges? No problem. Crowds of school kids? Handled like a pro. She navigated everything with confidence and grace—earning some laughs and a few “Scooby-Doo” comments along the way. At home, Queen is a toy and treat-motivated gal who loves to chew on bones and play with her stash of goodies throughout the day. She gets along well with the calm senior dog in her foster home and minds her business like the classy lady she is. She`s also great with kids, though she prefers to enjoy her meals and bones without interruptionWhile Queen has some minor mobility quirks—likely due to a hip or leg issue—she doesn’t let it slow her down much. She handles steps with care and is happiest on flat ground where she can stay close to you. In the backyard, she’ll stick right by your side and comes when called. Queen is a sweet, spunky, and loyal dog who’s looking for a home where she can be part of the action, soak up affection, and chew to her heart’s content. If you’re searching for a loving, adventurous companion with a big personality and an even bigger heart, Queen just might be your match!
