Story

Dakota is a 5-year-old American Staffordshire Terrier who has been part of our family since she was 6 weeks old. She is healthy, spayed, house-trained, and up to date on her vaccinations. Dakota is affectionate, loyal, playful, and loves people. She does well with adults, children, and other dogs. She especially loves little kids and enjoys giving them lots of kisses. She loves belly rubs, toys, cuddling, and spending time with her family. Due to financial hardship and our family's demanding work, school, and athletic schedules, we are no longer able to give her the time and attention she deserves. We are looking for a loving, stable home where Dakota will be treated as a cherished member of the family. Our priority is finding the right forever home, and we would appreciate occasional updates and pictures so we know she is happy and thriving.

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

Hello. I came to OCAS when my owner could no longer care for me. I also tested positive for heartworms. In North Carolina, it`s unfortunately common to see many dogs that are infected with heartworms (they are transmitted by mosquito bites). Heartworm disease may cause severe lung disease, heart failure, or other organ damage in dogs. It`s usually fatal if left untreated. Heartworm treatment is costly. With your support, OCAS can help more dogs with this disease - resulting in healthier dogs that are even more likely to get adopted. Please consider donating to our GoFundMe campaign.Insights from my foster:Meet Sweetie! She’s a gentle, sensitive girl who just needs a little time to feel safe in new environments. She can be more nervous around men and may take longer to warm up to them, but with patience and a calm approach, she blossoms into a loving, energetic companion. Once she feels comfortable, Sweetie loves hopping up for attention, zooming happily around the backyard after potty breaks, and following her favorite person from room to room like a loyal little shadow.Her routine is simple and steady. In the mornings, she leaves her kennel clean, eats her breakfast with her medication mixed into wet food, and usually heads outside to potty. Throughout the day she relaxes in her bed, plays with toys occasionally, and seeks affection when she’s feeling secure. She walks nicely but can become nervous around people, pets, and sudden or loud noises, and once she starts sniffing something interesting, she likes to take her time. The backyard is one of her favorite places; she never tries to hop the fence, though she may need coaxing to go through the door. At night she settles into her kennel after a bit of whining—just make sure both latches are secured, as she’s clever enough to wiggle out. Sweetie isn’t very food-motivated, but she absolutely loves plush toys and will gleefully pull out their stuffing. She’s not interested in chew toys. One important note is that she does not appear to be cat-friendly and shows a strong prey drive, although she is generally indifferent toward other dogs. When she feels extremely nervous, she may lift her left cheek in a silent “side snarl.” It seems to be a defensive signal rather than aggression, but it’s something to be aware of as she builds trust. The best thing about Sweetie is how affectionate she becomes once she opens up. She turns into a devoted little shadow who

Story

Hello. I came to OCAS when my owner could no longer care for me. Everyone is working to help me adjust to my new environment. I`m fairly shy, but give me a little time and love, and I will warm up!Check out these updates from Pearl`s foster:`Pearl has shown great improvements since she started foster care. After being crate trained and following a consistent daily routine, she has adjusted well. Since the last update, we decided to try new things to help get her anxiety under control when inside the house. I decided to have her sleep in her crate overnight to reduce accidents, which has been very helpful. It also allowed her to be calmer when she wakes up in the morning; she used to bark and howl at 7:00 a.m. every day. My roommate and I have been taking her on potty walks to get her more comfortable with different people. At first, she was anxious and had trouble going potty with my roommate, but after three days, she opened up. She is now doing great on her walks and has started taking treats from my roommate’s hand. We discovered that she loves saying hi to friendly dogs on walks! She met my friend`s dog and did great with him; he was larger in size, so I was worried, but she handled the interaction very well. We are, however, still working on managing distractions during walks. Regarding cats, she is still being slowly introduced to our house cats. At first, she disliked them, but after getting comfortable in other parts of the house, she has started sitting calmly in the same room with them (for example, staying in the living room while the cats play). Like her sister Sweetie, she loves plush toys and the stuffing—we have gone through a couple of toys already! She is not a fan of other toys, though she does enjoy chewing on toy bones, though they do not keep her as satisfied as the stuffing does. She also loves being petted and has started getting jealous when I pet my dog; she comes running and gives me her paw to start petting her too! I find it very cute because she is usually very reserved in her spot but automatically moves when she sees the petting happening. One other sweet moment was when my dog got so comfortable that they shared a crate while I was giving Pearl treats; my dog also got jealous and wanted some, so they both sat inside waiting together!``First, I want to thank Pearl`s first fosters. Because of the love, patience, and time they invested in her. Pearl has been in our home for just over a week, and it has been s

Story

We are looking for a loving home for Boosie, our 6-year-old spayed female dog. She is a very sweet, calm girl who loves being close to her person and relaxing on the couch. She is housebroken, crate trained, and used to a quiet home. Boosie has not been around small children, so we think she would do best in an adult home or a home without young kids.

Story

Are you looking for a sweet, smart, and silly companion? Princess might be your girl! 99% of the time this sleepy girl wants to lay about soaking up the sun or snuggling on the couch. She also enjoys short walks, people watching, and learning new skills.She truly is the perfect dog, especially for a lower energy household. Since undergoing heartworm treatment she has developed exercise and heat intolerance, so a slower paced life would be ideal for this retired mama. From what we've seen she does well with slow controlled introductions to some dogs, is very sweet and respectful around kids with supervision, and desperately loves every person she meets.She has a breed appropriate high prey drive, which is why we can't be her forever home - despite our best efforts she doesn't thrive living with a cat.She is potty, crate, and leash trained and has picked up obedience training really well. If you're interested please reach out, I'd love to share more about her! Adoption fee is negotiable.
