Story
River was abandoned in the national forest after we had a major ice/snow storm - myself along with animal control went out to try to get him and he was so terrified - after several hours I was able to gain his trust and he jumped into my car. River is a typical heeler - super super smart, loyal but the typical heeler attitude. This boy knows many commands, sit, stay, lay down, roll over, wait - he will not even eat until you tell him he can. His most favorite thing in the whole world to do is to play ball and he will play for hours and hours. He will need an adopter that has had "heeler" experience as they honestly are a breed of their own. But if you have experience with them - you also know how amazing they are. He would make an excellent hiking partner. Absolutely NO cats - and while he does well with dogs his size that are submissive - he would not mind being the only dog and this dog is going to be loyal to you without a doubt. He is estimated to be 4 years old and weighs 70 pounds. He is neutered, up to date on vaccines, dewormed, current on heartworm prevention, microchipped and is a very well trained dog. If River seems like the perfect dog for you, please go to our website www.boxerbuttsandothermutts.org and fill out one of our adoption applications - that is the first step in our process. We also require references and a home visit. His adoption fee is $250.00

Story
Whatsup pawty people! My name is Skelly and I'm on the hunt for my forever home! I am a 2-year-old Blue Heeler mix, and I am a big 55lb teddy bear!  A few things about me are that I LOVE to play fetch, but something I love even more is playing keep away from the other dogs with the tennis balls! I do great with other dogs and absolutely LOVE children! I do well around some smaller animals like cats, but I can still sometimes get overly excited with them. I also found love for water and pools, but I can still be a little nervous around them. My favorite thing to do is go for walks! Whether it's going on long hikes, short hikes, or even just a walk in the backyard, I'm all for it. I am a very loyal boy who will love you to no end. Just ask the shelter staff, I follow them around all day long, just looking after them and making them laugh at the silly faces I make! I would be perfect for an active family, as I love to run around and play all day long! I am also very talkative and expressive with everyone I meet. The shelter staff says that I'm the big rooster of the dogs, because I let EVERYONE know when it's time to rise and shine and when it's time to eat! I cannot wait to find my forever family and go on endless adventures!

Dozer's Story Born: October 30, 2025 Projected Adult Size: Under 35 lbs Status: Bottle-Raised • Thriving • Accepting Adoption Applications Now Meet this joyful little miracle! This pup came into the world by accident—his mom, Eggnog, was discovered to be pregnant during a routine spay appointment. After giving birth to a litter of seven, Eggnog unfortunately rejected the babies a few days later. Thankfully, an experienced GreenePets foster stepped up immediately. She has been bottle-raising four of the puppies around the clock, giving them the best possible start to life. These babies are thriving, full of energy, and embracing life with all the enthusiasm you’d expect from confident, well-socialized pups. This baby doggie will likely stay under 35 pounds when fully grown. Well handled lovingly since birth and will make an exceptional companion for a family who’s ready for puppy energy, structure, and lots of affection. Why Apply Now? These pups will be ready for adoption soon, and we expect a lot of interest given their size, temperament, and early handling. Start your application process now to be considered when they’re ready to go home.

These pups are in Waynesville, North Carolina too!

Story
I adopted Oliver from a breeder in Georgia in 2020. His papers say he is a mini Aussie. However, he is a 55 pound bundle of energy. Oliver enjoys sitting in my lap while I have my morning coffee, and is a great companion for snuggling up and watching movies. He loves to play fetch and tug-of-war, and take long walks. He loves to play with other dogs, as well. Due to an injury and and unpredictable work schedule, I cannot ensure Oliver gets the exercise he needs. He loves visiting the farm I grew up on in Kentucky, where he gets to run all day. My yard is not big enough for him to do this, and with my physical limitations, I cannot with any regularity, take him on long walks every day. Oliver would thrive in a home that has a large yard or on a farm. He is somewhat food, aggressive, and would do best in a home where there are not small children. Oliver has been my constant companion for 5 years, and I love him dearly. The decision to rehome him is heartbreaking, but necessary.
