My story

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

Cantaloupe is feeling rather meloncholy that he hasn't met his forever family yet. Cantaloupe is a sweet little guy who can be a bit shy at first. After he warms up to you, he becomes a totally different dog! He loves playing with his siblings and running around the backyard. All of the "fruit puppies would do well in a high activity household and would be ideal candidates for active families. They would do well in homes with older kids, but probably not newborns/small babies since they love to tackle and play contact sports. They would need very slow introductions to any feline friends, as they all seem to have some prey drive. They all did well in the bath and were really good for nail trims. They will need continued work on potty training. They have not had crate experience but have done will in the fenced in yard and in a tall playpen. They did good when wearing their collars, but have not had any leash experience. They all LOVE food and seem to be eager to please. Training them should be a breeze!! They just can't wait for you to come meet them and continue showing them just how great life can be!!

Additional adoption info

All puppies and dogs at Saving Grace are crate trained, have been spayed/neutered, are up to date on their vaccines, are on heartworm preventative and have been microchipped. Their adoption fee is $350.00. Each has been carefully screened for disposition and temperament in order to provide your home with a safe companion that will enjoy life as your new family member.

If you are interested in meeting one of our dogs, please complete an Adoption Application at our website: savinggracenc.org

Sending an Application does not commit you to an adoption, it simply provides us with background information on potential homes. Please review our Adoption Contract before sending an Application to ensure that you will be able to provide the requirements stated in the contract. The Contract must be signed at the time of adoption.

Saving Grace is a small, non-profit 501-C3 organization operated by volunteers only. Most of our animals come from rural animal control shelters where lack of space and resources limit their time and adoption possibilities. Thank you for choosing Saving Grace! We look forward to helping you find your new companion and family member.

More about this rescue

Located in central North Carolina and officially established in 2004, Saving Grace has placed over 15,000 dogs into homes since its inception. These dogs were from rural animal control facilities with little resources and who would otherwise not had the opportunity to receive necessary veterinary care and a chance at adoption. While we have grown significantly over the years and have been successful growing our numbers we still see many great dogs miss the opportunity of adoption.

We have a large variety of dogs varying in breed, size, shape, age and needs and would love to work with you to find you a great dog companion while providing a dog in need with a loving home. Our dogs are chosen based on temperament and socialization. We get some of the most charming, unique mix breeds as well as some striking purebreds. Our dogs come from rural, underserved areas and while they may have little experience as an indoor family member, they have the temperament and personality that is sure to bring much love and appreciation to their new home. Most have started their crate training while in our program. Veterinary care including spay/neuter, microchip, heartworm test, vaccinations, monthly preventatives are provided prior to each adoption. If you would like more information about adopting one of our dogs, please email savinggrace@savinggracenc.org
