Story
Name / Breed / Age: Fanny, Bulldog mix, Adult Personality Traits: Faithful, Curious, Loveable Likes / Dislikes:  She likes everyone but doesn't like surprising noises Health and behavior history:  Up to date on vaccines, dewormed, microchipped and will be neutered/spayed prior to adoption. Clean bill of health from the PIPs Vet! Meet Fanny! Just look at that toothy grin!  What Fanny lacks in proper jaw alignment, she makes up for in her sweet temperament and over-all good dog-ness.  She is a friend to all – dogs, cats, and people.  She loves to follow you around to see what you are up to.  She is always up for a jaunt around the neighborhood, to sit quietly while you work, and perhaps gnaw on a toy, or to just chill on the couch, endlessly watching reruns of Gilmore Girls.  She doesn’t judge, she is just stoked to be with you.   While she would rather join you when you leave (who doesn’t love a car ride to WHEREVER!) She is also very understanding if you need to leave the house, and will rest quietly in her crate will you are gone. After finding herself in the Wake County Animal shelter in not the best of shape, Fanny has recently embarked on a journey of self-care.  She is working on gaining a few pounds, clearing up that itchy skin of hers, and ridding herself of those pesky heartworms!  Worry not!  She is committed to become her best self, and quite possibly, the best dog around in no time flat!   ##2559644##

Story
(DOB 05/02/2025) Scout, the handsome Bulldog mix with the best eyebrows in town!  Scout is a bundle of energy, curiosity, and pure joy. With his striking black muzzle and those expressive brows, he’s as adorable as he is fun-loving. Scout enjoys running and playing with both dogs and people, always eager to join in the action. On walks, his curious nature shines—he loves watching neighborhood dogs and even the horses, sometimes sitting right down in the street to observe his surroundings. One of his horse friends will even come to the fence so they can politely touch noses! This sweet boy absolutely loves being with his people. Whether he’s playing with his toys or chewing on a bone, Scout likes to be touching someone—often draped across your legs, soaking up the connection. He’s happiest when he’s part of the household fun and near those he loves. On sunny days, you’ll often find him lounging by the storm door, basking in the light and watching the world go by. Scout is crate trained and housebroken, and he’s able to hold it overnight. Like any young, curious pup, he can be a bit mischievous, so he does best with supervision when he’s out of his crate. He walks nicely on a leash with his harness, though he can get excited when he spots people or other animals. A fenced yard would be a dream come true for him and somewhere he can run freely and let out all that playful energy! It isn't a 100% requirement but only if his family has plans for lots of activities, playtime, other doggies in the house to play with, doggie day camp and those kinds of things. This lovable boy rides wonderfully in the car and is always up for an adventure. He’d thrive with someone who can provide structure and patience who is consistent and loving to continue polishing his manners (someone at home a good chunck of the day is probably best at his young age; hanging in the crate all day waiting for his people come home would be a bit of a drag.). Scout would enjoy having a doggy sibling to play with, but he’d be just as happy being the center of attention as your one and only. While he loves people of all ages, his enthusiasm might be a bit much for very small children. Scout is ready to find his forever family—a place where he can play hard, snuggle often, and soak up all the love he deserves. Could that be with you? As part of Scout'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 pup, you can email: Dogteam@pawsforlifenc.org. If you wish to adopt Scout, you can complete an online application for him under the Adopt a Pet Tab on our website: www.pawsforlifenc.org. ##2570349##

They do love children!  Sandy, the taller of the two woman’s and /or man’s best friends, appears to be about 7-8 yy. Shadow, predominantly a short black and white cutie, is perhaps 10 yy. They are known to be healthy overall, have been fully vetted, enjoy walks under our beautiful NC skies, enjoy a car ride, and know how to use a dog door. They also would say “Yes” to…a fenced yard.   If you seek these pastimes: cuddling, watching pooches twist in delight when booties are scratched, relish in the pleasure of a relaxing afternoon in bed when it is raining or snowing, being the recipient of pooch smooches, and look forward to playing with stuffies, look no further! PS. – If you usually ride shotgun, you may have competition or… a guest on your lap.  As part of Sandy & Shadow's bonded $400 (for both) adoption fee, they arebe spayed/neutered, microchipped, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, and current on her monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives.  If you have questions about this sweet little girl and boy,  you can email  Dogteam@pawsforlifenc.org.  If you wish to adopt Sandy and Shadow, you can fill in an online application for them under the Adopt a Pet Tab on our website:  www.pawsforlifenc.org.   ##1811009##

Story
(DOB 7/23/2022) River has the cutest "wrinkles!! She has the kindest eyes that will shine in the sun and melt your heart. She does not have a mean bone in her body!! River will sweetly and gently flow into your life and your heart! River loves soft, plush toys to play with and would love a family to spend time each day playing with her! She will share a big smile, a wiggly tail to show you how much fun she is having with you! River would do well in a home that has someone at home a good amount of the day; she'd make a good work from home partner. River is docile and unassertive and has a shier personality. She loves her furry foster family members and having another sweet and confident pup in her new home would be the ideal home life for sweet River. She loves her people but does take a little time to warm up; are you the kind of person that would give her a little bit of extra patience so you get the reward of being the love of her life! You won't be dissappointed in her loyalty and the amount of love she has to give! River needs a home with a fence. She doesn't love walking on a leash and will need time, lots of positive praise and yummy rewards when loud noises and cars zip by her.  She says just take your time and/or go on strolls in quieter places like a trail or the woods. So a good ole fenced in yard to hang out with her loveable family and furry siblings is what River is looking for. Since River is still learning that her new life will be safe, she can be a flight risk so a family that understands doors need to be watched, monitoring if outside in a fenced area and always walking on leash with a martingale collar are needed for this darling girl to remain safe and secure. She just needs time and patience and you will absolutely fall head over heals for this special, wonderful girl! Give this girl a chance and you won't be disappointed! As part of River’s $300 adoption fee, she is spayed, microchipped, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, and current on her monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives.  If you have questions about this sweet little girl, you can email  Dogteam@pawsforlifenc.org.  If you wish to adopt River, you can fill in an online application for her under the Adopt a Pet Tab on our website:  www.pawsforlifenc.org. ##1797066##
