My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Bama is an absolute lover! He loves to go on walks with people and just hang out. He does have a hound nose and he knows how to use it so a securely fenced in yard is required for this dog! Bama is about 3yrs old and neutered, microchipped, and fully vaccinated. He is a larger dog at about 50lbs. The perfect person for Bama would be someone who is active and can take this boy on walks and who also has a spacious fenced yard. Bama has done great with every dog he has ever met so if you have other dogs, that would be fine. He does well with all adults and children. We aren't sure how he does with cats but with him being a hound, we think cats may be questionable. BAMA IS A LOVER,THE PERFECT HOUSE HOUND! NOT A HUNTER. WE WILL NOT ADOPT HIM AS A HUNTING DOG!!! If you are interested in meeting this sweet boy, swing by the shelter Tuesday - Saturday 10:30am - 4:00pm!

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

The adoption fee is $65 for a cat or $85 for a dog unless we have incurred significant medical expenses. We do not adopt out dogs as guard dogs, or animals that will be "outside only" pets. Our feline residents are required to be adopted as inside-only pets.

Thanks to our small staff and a couple of very dedicated volunteers, we have a wonderful group of socialized and happy dogs and cats at the shelter. We are open to the public Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday from 10:30 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. just a 2 minute drive from downtown Bryson City. Give us a call for more info at 828-488-0418 and say you found us on Adopt-a-Pet.com!

More about this rescue

We are a small no-kill shelter founded in 1990. We are the only shelter in the county and rely solely on donations and the sales from our thrift store. We are small enough that each dog (15 max) and each cat (16 max) get individual attention. We have created a home-like environment in our shelter to give the animals as close to a real home while they wait to be adopted. HSUS had dubbed us "the little shelter that could" when the state rep came out and saw all that we accomplish as a very small organization. We have adopted out over 2,500 animals and have financially assisted the community in over 9,000 spay/neuter surgeries. We have 2 full-time staff and rely on volunteers to help us with all there is to do. Volunteers are very important to the success of P.A.W.S. and there are many opportunities not only at the shelter, but in our thrift store, fundraising, administrative, festivals and media contact.
