Story

Bailey's Mother recently passed away and he wants a good home where he can be loved! Other family members could not keep him aboard due to limitations. Bailey loves to snuggle and he will follow you around or curl up next to you all night on the couch! He is glued to his owner and also has "his" sidekick which is another dog. Bailey has Velcro-sydrome at night and also during the day and all he wants to do is sit with you. Bailey is 1/2 Aussie and sometimes thinks that he is hearding sheep! He is almost 2 years old in June/July and he is really excited and full of energy but is slowing down as he is approaching adulthood. He likes to chew on his favorite toys and he is very smart and tries to figure out puzzles too. He has a tug of war set of rings too and sometimes he wants to play when I take him for a walk or potty. He does really well with training treats and has had some lessons with a trainer. Bailey also thinks everybody is his best friend! Bailey wants a good home!

Story

Love! Also goes by Ruby. She is sweet, caring, and very loving as her name implies. She will be your bestest companion. She likes going on short walks and dog parks. Loves snow but like most dogs prefers warm weather. She will greet you, follow you everywhere, give you space when needed. She is great at emotional support and shows an in depth understanding of emotions and cares for other dogs and people. She has shepherding instincts given her breed. Overall, she was above and beyond my expectations. I would not part with her if I didn’t have to. Hoping to find her a suitable home, preferably a family that loves dogs, knows dogs, maybe already has one, she would do well with a companion dog. Somebody close by to the Cary Raleigh area! She likes being around people and enjoys their company. She is completely house trained. Spayed, microchipped, and up to date on her vaccines. Please let me know as soon as possible. She’ll be ready for rehoming soon.

Story

Holly,18mo, is in excellent health and current on all vaccinations. She has an MDR1 gene mutation, so certain medications must be avoided, but this has never caused issues and her vet easily works around it. She recovered from her spay with no complications. Holly is a sweet, sensitive girl who may be shy at first but becomes deeply loving, loyal, and snuggly once she bonds. She is very active, loves being outdoors, and is happiest running, playing, and especially chasing her ball. She thrives with structure, engagement, and having a “job.” A fenced yard is required. Holly is best as the only dog and has no experience with cats or children. She is highly trained, house, crate, leash, place, fetch trained, knows tricks like high fives. She sleeps through the night, enjoys car rides, and does well at the vet, groomer, and boarding. She also attends doggy daycare and successfully plays with other dogs. We are rehoming her because she and our other female dog are not a compatible match.

Story

Meet Seven.Yes, that Seven. The internet can argue about 6 / 7 all it wants. He is very confidently Seven. Seven came to Perfectly Imperfect Pups with vision and hearing challenges, but if you watched him for a few minutes, you might question that entirely. The vet believes he has limited sight and hearing, yet he navigates the house with ease, follows the other dogs confidently, and is surprisingly aware of his surroundings. We suspect he can see and hear a bit, because he responds to movement, tracks the pack, and rarely bumps into anything. What stands out most is not what Seven cannot do, but how much he can do. He is incredibly smart, curious, and wonderfully goofy. He loves exploring, figuring things out, and following the other dogs’ lead, especially when it is time to head outside. He is now about 95% house trained and continues to improve every day. Seven is also a major snuggler. He bonds quickly with his people and loves being close. At night, he sleeps very well in a crate as long as it is near his person, and he settles nicely. During the day he can relax in a crate for a few hours, though he does best in a home where someone is around more often, works from home, or can come home at lunch, since he gets a little anxious if left too long. He absolutely loves other dogs and gains confidence from them. Having a friendly dog buddy in the home would likely help him continue to thrive. He is also starting to walk nicely on a leash and is enjoying learning about the world one step at a time. If you did not know Seven had vision and hearing challenges, you likely would not notice. He simply approaches life in his own thoughtful, adorable way. Seven is going to make an exceptional family member for someone ready to love a dog who may do things a little differently — and wonderfully so. Perfectly Imperfect, just as he is meant to be. pipsrescue.org/adopt ##2640231##
