Dale is such a nice boy with an equally nice personality. He came to BAS as a stray, but has been on many fun adventures!
Volunteer Notes, 4/24/24: We love Dale! He is playful, friendly, and smart. He is also a goofy love bug and we can`t resist his beautiful face watching us walk by his kennel! As we`ve gotten to know him better, it`s obvious that he`s the total package of a dog: he is mature enough to know how to behave, but has the energy level of a younger dog. One thing he needs help with is learning not to bite the leash out of excitement. Having said that, he responds well to redirection. He is attentive to the people he`s with and looks for behavioral cues. He`s also a photogenic little ham!
Dog Day Out, 4/22/24: Dale is the sweetest, and he loves adventures, loves hikes, loves to run. Never barks. Wants to meet with everyone he comes in contact with. Sits pretty for his treats, too. He does pull on the leash a bit but once the excitement wears off he does a lot better. Toys and balls don`t interest him much but this good doggy loves to walk and run, and does a great job staying on the path.
Volunteer notes, 4/22/24: Dale is a very energetic dog who was excited to chase balls in the play yard. He even brought them back and dropped them politely (sometimes we had to wait a while). He was treat-motivated and friendly and knew basic commands.
Dog Day Out, 4/18/24: Dale is the sweetest, he was so excited to go for a car ride. We took a trip to Reidsville and walked the Chinqua Penn walking trail. Dale was so excited to be outside; we met many friends along the way--squirrels, dogs, a herd of cows. He did well with them all. He did get a little excited when we passed a dog and he wanted to turn around and pulled the leash but I redirected his path and he was fine the rest of the hike. We laid in the sun and had plenty of treats and water. Dale was the sweetest and gentlest when taking treats from my hand. We then ventured to Lake Mackintosh Marina and Dale did so well in the car

Things to know:
If you already know you want to proceed with adopting a specific pet, please email us at petadoption@burlingtonnc.gov and let us know you want to go ahead and adopt. You can still meet the pet before finalizing the adoption to make sure they are a great fit for you.
Pets are adopted on a first-come-first-served basis and may be adopted very quickly. You can see the current status of available pets on our website. Pets that are listed as "Available" are currently available for adoption. Those with a status of "Adoption Pending" or "Unavailable" already have been spoken for and are no longer available for adoption. The status of these pets will be updated back to "Available" if their original placement falls through. Our website automatically updates every hour and displays all pets at BAS Pet Adoption & Resource Center or foster.
Visitation and adoption of pets in foster must be scheduled directly with the foster volunteer since these pets are not at the Animal Services Center. Email fosterpets@burlingtonnc.gov to schedule a visit or adoption of a pet in foster care.
Stop by and visit pets at the Burlington Animal Services Pet Adoption and Resource Center six days a week:
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday: 8:00 a.m.- 5:00 p.m.
Thursday: 8:00 a.m. - 7:00 p.m
Saturday: 10:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m.

Pets receive vaccines, testing, and preventatives appropriate for their species and age, as well as any necessary treatments. Dogs and cats are spayed or neutered. BAS adopters also receive exclusive discounts on food, veterinary care, training, and more through our partners. All this is included in the adoption!
Adoption fees are very low and are sometimes waived as part of regular adoption special events through out the year. To see our current adoption fees and specials, visit burlingtonnc.gov/visitBAS. Our goal is to ensure every pet has a positive outcome and gets to live life with a loving family.
To take home a pet, adopters or fosters only need to present a government-issued photo ID and be at least 18 years old. There is NO lengthy paperwork to fill out and NO intrusive or lengthy process. Most pets can go home the same day, and we provide resources and ongoing support to help you and the pet make a smooth transition!
Burlington Animal Services Pet Adoption & Resource Center is at 221 Stone Quarry Rd. Burlington, NC 27271.
