Story
We adopted Emmy in 2023 as a puppy. She is the sweetest girl. She has a gentle, goofy, cuddly personality. We need to re-home her because our busy schedules between work and our four kids’ sports/activities make it so Emmy has to be in her kennel more than not. We would love to see her go to a loving family that has more quality time to give her. We are also re-homing her adorable best friend, River—1.5 year old female Border Collie, Blue Heeler, Australian Shepard mix.

Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Good with kids, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
MJ is approximately 4 1/2 years old, spayed and weighs around 38 pounds. She is a mixed breed, possible cattle dog/lab mix. She has lived with a family of two younger kids (now aged 6 and 9) since she was nine months old. She is very sweet and playful. She likes to snuggle and does well on car rides. She loves to go for walks, hikes, and play fetch, and will often go on longer runs. She is house trained and likes to sleep in her crate at night. She is able to be on her own for several hours as her current owners work outside the home, and she does not seem to have separation anxiety. She has completed basic obedience training. Mary Jane is a nervous dog when it comes to loud noises (fireworks, thunder) and she takes time to warm up to new people and new dogs. She has gone to other homes for dog sitting, with other dogs present, and has done just fine after taking a few minutes to get comfortable. She has become territorial (aggressive barking, some jumping) in and near her house which has become a problem due to kids' friends stopping by and a neighborhood park across the street. Once she gets to know the house guests she is usually fine, but it takes time and some active steps to get there. Owners have done several in-home trainer lessons but do not have the time and focus that MJ deserves. She would probably do okay with another dog(s) in the home and actually may enjoy it. She is unknown with cats. Although she has done great with the kids in her current home, a home with no young kids would be ideal unless extra time is spent for her to adjust.We are happy to pay for an in-home private lesson with a dog trainer to help the transition to a new home. We are sad for her to go but are hoping she finds a home that can give her the time and attention she deserves. Please fill out an application at sccpets.com (at no cost or obligation to you). Her adoption donation is $200.If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an adoption application.October 24, 2025, 5:59 pm

Story
THOR – Male Carolina Dog/Feist Mix | 6 Years Old DOB 11/02/2019                              | 36 lbs | Healthy, Vaccinated & Neutered Say hello to Thor, the brave-hearted sweetheart with a gentle soul. Don’t let his mighty name fool you — Thor is more tender than thunder! He’s affectionate, loyal, and loves being around people. Whether it’s a car ride, a stroll around the block, or a quiet cuddle on the couch, Thor’s happiest when he’s part of the moment. His calm confidence and loving energy make him a wonderful companion for any family ready to open their heart. Breed Info: Carolina Dogs are known for their loyalty and intelligence, while Feists bring spunk, curiosity, and agility. Together, Thor’s mix creates a well-balanced companion — smart, affectionate, and always ready for a little adventure followed by a long nap. Owner Responsibilities: Thor will thrive with structure, affection, and consistency. Provide daily walks, playtime, and positive reinforcement. Feed him well, keep him active, and always make time for bonding — he’ll reward you with endless love and devotion. Things to Consider Before Adopting: Do you have time for daily care, play, and companionship? Is your home and landlord pet-approved? Can you commit to giving a dog a forever home through all of life’s changes? Dogs are a promise, not a phase — make sure you’re ready for forever. Vet Care: Thor is healthy, vaccinated, and neutered. Still, it’s important to schedule a visit with your trusted vet soon after adoption to ensure his continued health and wellness. The 3-3-3 Rule & Commitment for Life: The first 3 days are for decompressing — everything is new, so give him space and reassurance. The first 3 weeks are when he’ll start learning your home, your schedule, and your heart. The first 3 months are when trust blossoms, and he’ll know he’s truly home. When you adopt, you’re not just saving a life — you’re gaining a loyal companion for years to come. Why Thor Would Be a Great Addition: Thor has the kind of heart that makes a house feel whole. He’ll greet you with love every morning, comfort you when you need it, and remind you daily that rescue dogs don’t just change — they transform your life. Thor is ready to be someone’s reason to smile — will it be yours? &#226&#157&#164&#239&#184&#143   If you are interested in adopting this amazing dog, please follow the link https://www.ozzieandfriendsrescue.org/adoptions and fill out an application  Thank you for choosing Ozzie and Friends Rescue.

OSO – Male Cattle Dog/Carolina Dog Mix | 6 Years Old DOB: 11/04/2019 | 36 lbs | Healthy, Vaccinated & Neutered Meet Oso, the loyal, gentle-hearted companion you’ve been searching for! With his kind eyes and steady spirit, Oso is that perfect blend of courage and calm.

Oso is the kind of dog who listens, bonds deeply, and brings peace and joy wherever he goes. Breed Info: Cattle Dogs and Carolina Dogs are both intelligent, loyal, and active breeds. They thrive on companionship, structure, and purpose. Known for their problem-solving skills and devotion, they make incredible family dogs for those who enjoy a mix of adventure and quiet connection.

Continue positive training, feed a balanced diet, and give him a soft place to rest — and you’ll have a best friend for life. Things to Consider Before Adopting: Do you have the time and energy for daily walks and companionship? Is your landlord pet-friendly, and do you have space for a medium-sized dog? Are you settled enough to commit to a lifelong friend through every season? Dogs are family — they depend on you, through joy and change alike. Vet Care: Oso is healthy, vaccinated, and neutered — but even though he’s in great shape, please take him to your trusted vet soon after adoption to establish ongoing care and keep him thriving. The 3-3-3 Rule & Commitment for Life: The first 3 days are for decompressing — everything is new, so give him space and reassurance. The first 3 weeks are when he’ll start learning your home, your schedule, and your heart. The first 3 months are when trust blossoms, and he’ll know he’s truly home. Adopting a dog is a promise — one filled with love, laughter, and a bond that lasts a lifetime. Why Oso Would Be a Great Addition: Oso’s calm yet joyful spirit will melt your heart every single day. He’s a steady friend, a loyal shadow, and a source of unconditional love. With Oso by your side, your home will feel warmer, your days fuller, and your heart forever changed. &#226&#157&#164&#239&#184&#143   If you are interested in adopting this amazing dog, please follow the link https://www.ozzieandfriendsrescue.org/adoptions and fill out an application  Thank you for choosing Ozzie and Friends Rescue.
