Story
Duck is a lovable whirlwind of a dog. His favorite people get more wiggles than his body can contain and he will literally never stop playing fetch. He also has a calm side: Duck will not complain if you have to skip a walk, and he is happy to lounge around during down time. He is loyal, and well-trained on and off leash. A fantastic walker and a dreamy hiking companion, he also responds quickly to commands like stay and place. Despite our best training efforts and management, Duck is not happy in a home with our two young children (3 and under). He has growled and snapped at them unprovoked, and seems overstimulated. Heartbreakingly, he needs a calmer home life with more attention and dog experience than we can provide. With a person/people that can give him focus and attention, Duck will thrive. Age: 5 yrs (January 2021 estimated birthday) Breed: Pit/Golden Retriever/Australian Shepard mix Color/Coat: Apricot, medium-long hair Weight: 50 lbs

Story
Lada is a sweet, affectionate mixed breed whose age while unknown is guessed by our veterinarian as about 1.5 years. She loves to cuddle and turn over so her belly is rubbed. She plays fetch. She is house-broken and crate-trained. She likes being in her crate in our bedroom at night. She is wicked smart and the sky is the limit on what tricks she can learn. She is very healthy. She is a good eater and is not fussy about food. Lada is up-to-date on all vaccinations and NextGard Plus chews. Lada is spayed and chipped. She is about 35 pounds. We will hand over all vet records. We adopted her in October. We do not know her history before then. The fact of the matter is that we are older and fear we will fall when she pulls us on walks. She pulls hard and barks wildly when she sees another dog. She is a good watch dog. Lada is good with children and visitors to our house, including our grandchildren, who are toddlers.

Story
Meet Rocky, a laid-back, big-hearted guy who`s looking for the perfect companion. Rocky thrives in a calm, quiet home, ideally with an individual or couple who can offer him the peace he craves. While he`s tolerant of kids, he prefers to snuggle only with his bonded person. True to his cattle dog nature, Rocky is protective of his territory and takes his time warming up to newcomers. But with a few tasty treats, he’s quick to make new friends! Out in public, like at Lowes or the park, he’s friendly and allows people to pet him.He’s an easy-going guy who enjoys nice walks or short hikes and does well on a leash. However, he’s not a fan of other dogs and would prefer to be the only pup in the home. Rocky is food-driven, so with patience and training, he can overcome his dog-on-dog challenges.Rocky is fully house-trained, and he’ll always let you know when it`s time to go potty. He can be left home alone for long periods and is perfectly well-behaved—no chewing, no accidents. He’s also pretty good at following basic commands: sit, down, stay, and come. He doesn’t jump up on guests or try to dash out the door when it opens.While he can tolerate cats, small animals like squirrels aren’t his thing, and he won’t chase them. He enjoys playing tug-of-war and carrying around his stuffies (though he doesn’t chew them up!). Rocky also loves to bury bones and toys that he’s particularly fond of.He has a sensitivity to certain ingredients like corn, wheat, and soy, so he requires allergy-friendly food. He’s also afraid of thunderstorms, so a little extra care during storms will go a long way.Though Rocky hasn’t been crate trained, he seems to like the idea of having his own space. With his thick fur, he does require regular brushing, but professional grooming isn’t necessary. He`s not a fan of water or swimming, but he doesn’t bark excessively—just enough to alert when something’s up.If you’re ready for a loyal companion who thrives on a peaceful, loving environment, Rocky could be your guy!

Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
WILL NEED IMMEDIATE BEHAVIORAL TRAINING AND IS NOT SPAYED. She is aggressive towards all strangers but no biting She can be very lovable, but only to one main person at a time...preferably women. She becomes very dominant towards that one person she chooses and doesnt like others around them. She views men as a threat . She needs to be rehomed with someone experienced. Due to her behavioral issues, she is not fully house trained, most shots updated but not all. She does not do well with other dogs or larger families. Needs possibly only a couple or a farm. She needs someone who is patient, and experienced. She has a very loving side and becomes extremely intuned with your emotions. She was originally an emotional support dog, through a therapist. She is not crate trained and is used to sleeping on furniture with her owner. We believe apartment space and lack of socialization created this. We are willing to take her back within 60 days if it doesnt work in new home

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##

Story
(10/04/2024) Chesney is a cheerful guy and happy to participate in any fun, family daily activities. He would be very happy to join a family with another playful dog(s), kids that want to play fetch, or even a home with cats!!! Due to his playful exuberance, older kids are recommended to ensure everyone has a great time together. Chesney has "passed" his cat test and would be ok joining a family with kitties in their home. Chesney is a young, energetic dog with a heart full of enthusiasm and a love for the great outdoors. He's incredibly athletic and thrives on playing fetch and chasing after balls; he's always ready for his next adventure! Chesney is super friendly, eager to please his people, and loves being part of the action. He's food-motivated and responds well to praise, making training a fun and rewarding experience. While he's crate trained, Chesney isn't a big fan of the crate. With a little continued practice, he's sure to become even more confident on walks. Chesney would flourish in a home with a young, active family, especially one where someone works from home or can provide daycare to keep him happily busy. If you're looking for a lively, affectionate companion who will keep you on your toes and bring endless joy to your home, Chesney might just be your perfect match! As part of Chesney’s $300 adoption fee, he will be neutered, microchipped, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, and current on his monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives. If you have questions about this sweet little boy, you can email  Dogteam@pawsforlifenc.org.  If you wish to adopt Chesney, you can fill in an online application for him under the Adopt a Pet Tab on our website:  www.pawsforlifenc.org. ##2392608##
