My story

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

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

INTERESTED IN ADOPTING SALLY/ROXY? If so, please fill out our dog adoption application by copying and pasting this link in a new browser window: https://toolkit.rescuegroups.org/of/f?c=WHMSYCNC. PLEASE SELECT SALLY AS THE DOGS NAME!

Please consider giving Sally, now known as Roxy, the home that she deserves. She was adopted from Best Friend Pet Adoption as a young puppy into a home that gave her a wonderful life. Sadly, her owner passed away and she is currently living with a family member who is fostering her. Sally (Roxy) can be timid with new people. She will need time to settle in but once she does, she will be your loyal friend. Once she bonds with you, she will be at your side...giving you her adorable smile!

She was used to be an o nly dog but is now living with a smaller, barky dog as well as a young large dog (1 year old lab mix). She does OK with the dogs but would really do best being an only dog . She will tolerate the other dogs but can get irritated at them.

Roxy prefers human companionship and is pretty low energy. She really loves her people. Roxy is housebroken and crate trained. She likes long slow walks, sniffing out the neighborhood and does best with a harness. Walking her can be a challenge when meeting other dogs, so an experienced owner may be best. Roxy doesn't need a fenced yard since she is used to going on walks for her potty breaks. But she no doubt would like a fenced yard and would make potty breaks easier.

Her ideal home would be with someone who is home most of the time since she is not used to be alone for long periods of time. She has not been around cats or children and would do best in a calm environment. Please consider giving Roxy a new home where she can be showered with love and affection.

Sally is currently being fostered in the Wilmington NC area. Best Friend Pet Adoption ideally would prefer applicants who live in the Raleigh or Wilmington NC areas.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

All of our adoptions require submission of an application which is processed and and must be approved by our adoption coordinator. Potential adopters then take the animal on a trial (minimum of 2 weeks) before the adoption is finalized. This helps to ensure a good fit between the adopting family and the animal. All animals must be up to date on all vaccinations, spayed/neutered, and microchipped before the adoption can be finalized. Adoption fee is $225 for dogs, $115 for cats.

Pets can be met during our adoption events (mostly on Saturdays) or by arrangements with the foster family.

More about this rescue

Best Friend Pet Adoption (BFPA) is a no-kill animal rescue organization based in central North Carolina. BFPA has no building, office, or shelter. We are an all-foster network committed to helping dogs and cats in need of homes. Individual donations are our most important source of income as we receive no public funding.

Our purpose is to provide medical assistance, foster homes, and adoption services to previously lost, abandoned, abused, or neglected animals in Wake County, NC and the surrounding counties. Our mission is to educate this disposable society in which we live that every life should be valued and cherished and is directly linked to human responsibility and commitment.

Almost all the animals we rescue require immediate medical attention. BFPA never turns away or euthanizes an animal because of the expense involved in returning them to good health. All our rescued animals are evaluated for temperament, examined by a veterinarian, vaccinated, microchipped (if possible) and sterilized, if age appropriate. Cats and dogs receive monthly flea/tick preventative and dogs also receive monthly heartworm preventative.

The most important ingredients we provide to these animals are loving care and a safe haven -- something most of them have never experienced. These cats and dogs live in volunteer foster homes until we find them a loving permanent home, however long it takes. We match these precious beings to a single, couple or family who understand cats and dogs should be full participating members of the family. Our hope is that these animals never have to experience being unloved again.

Since our beginning, BFPA has rescued and placed thousands of cats and dogs into their forever homes.

BFPA was created in 1998 by two Raleigh-area women who had volunteered with other established rescues in the Triangle. Their dedication to help homeless dogs and cats has led to an organization that has grown to over 225 volunteers strong.

BFPA received 501(c)(3) status in 1999.
