My story

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

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

All Best Friend Pet Adoption dogs require an approved Best Friend Pet Adoption application. The link to our application is  https://toolkit.rescuegroups.org/of/f?c=WHMSYCNC.  

Meet one of the Hawaiian Litter puppies....Lani.  She is such a sweet puppy who was born on 6/1/24.  Her momma, Tiki, is a 3 year old 30 lb rat terrier mix.  We feel that Lani will be larger and probably at least 50 lbs when full grown.  

Lani is crate trained.  She  sleeps in the crate at night and is crated when we leave the home. She quiets down well unless she can hear activity in the rest of the house. Piano music seems to quiet her and put her to sleep. 

Lani is working on house training.  She is doing well but still needs to be taken outside often.  If someone works away from the house, they would need to have a plan to allow for potty breaks.   She has a wonderful temperament and rests well during the day. 

She is extremely friendly and loves meeting people. She enjoys sitting on laps. Lani enjoys playing with our 4yo dog.  She can be very rambunctious (she is a puppy!)  but also shares toys very well. 

Lani does very well with older children but may be too active for very young children who are not used to puppy behavior. Puppies may nibble, bite and mouth so may not be appropriate for very young children unless they have had experience around dogs/puppies.  

She is vocal when she wants attention so may not be appropriate for living in an apartment and being left alone for long periods of time.  She has a lot of energy.  If she doesn't have her own yard to run around it, she will need several walks a day in additional to potty breaks.  Lani would love another dog in the home but would also be fine as a solo dog if given a lot of attention, playtime and appropriate exercise.  Puppies have a lot of energy:-) 

Lani is a friendly, adorable dog who will be a great companion.We feel she will be the kind of dog that likes to go on runs when she gets old enough.  She will need chew toys, as she loves the ones she has in her foster home. We love fostering her and it will be very hard to let her go. She has a way of getting into your heart.  Could she get into YOUR heart?  Please consider giving Lani the loving home she deserves.  

EVERY DOG HAS A STORY:  Lani's mother (Tiki) was rescued from a shelter and we didn't know she was pregnant. Her foster came home and discovered she had a litter of four sweet girls waiting for her.  What a surprise! Maybe you can open your home for one of these lucky puppies. They love dogs and all people.     

Some of the information contained in this biography includes approximations based on our expertise and is not guaranteed. 

Applicants for puppies should  live 30-60  minutes from Cary NC (no further than one hour) since Lani must receive additional medical care in the Cary area.  Best Friend Pet Adoption will cover all medical cost for Lani until she is spayed when she is 6 months old.

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.

Go meet their pets

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.
