My story

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

(DOB 05/24/2016) I'm day dreaming of a home where I can show you my undying loyalty and love. Will you make my dreams a reality!?!? You won't be disappointed in how sweet, affectionate and loveable I can be!



Some people have described me as a  senior, but I still feel young at heart! Although I’ve got some gray hair, my body works fine!! Plus there are tons of other benefits, I'm sweet, mellow and you will definitely see my loyalty shine through. I love cuddles and tummy rubs because they make me feel safe and loved. I promise to be your best friend, your confidant, and your constant companion. I deserve a loving home, and I hope that home is with you!



I love long walks where I can sniff around and see what’s happening in the neighborhood and park. My foster mom says I’m “good on the leash”, whatever that means. I try not to pull her, and just be gentle with her. I am happiest when we’re taking a nice walk or laying on the couch with her. When she has to leave me, I just go in my crate and sleep until she comes back. Then, she snuggles with me on the couch and wraps me up in my blankie until I fall asleep. I, also, sleep in my crate at night on a soft bed with my blankie – oh so wonderful because it’s warm, super-soft, and safe.



A few zoomies in the back yard is always, fun, too, when I’m feeling frisky. I love love love to lay on the deck and soak up the sunshine when it’s not too hot outside any chance I get. I like watching the neighbors walk by. I’m not “barky” as she calls it, but I do let her know when anyone comes in our yard, it’s the least I can do! For that reason, I'd probably be fine in a condo, apartment or townhome lifestyle as long as is family gets him out for potty breaks every 3-4 hours. 



I’m going to meet foster mommy’s cats and some children soon, she just wanted me to get adjusted to her new home first..so more to come about me. I prefer to be the only dog in the home; I just kind of like my own space and time. If you think I sound like the kind of guy for you, let's plan to meet soon! 



As part of Halo’s $300 adoption fee, he will be neutered, microchipped, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, and current on his monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives. If you have questions about this sweet little boy, you can email  Dogteam@pawsforlifenc.org.  If you wish to adopt Halo, you can fill in an online application for him under the Adopt a Pet Tab on our website:  www.pawsforlifenc.org.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

1. Review the description of the pet you are interested in to make sure that the information we have fits with your particular needs and desires. In most cases, the information on the website is current and gives the information that we have about the particular pet. The picture of the pet does not tell the whole story.

2. Complete the adoption application at https://pawsforlifenc.org. Please make sure that you give us as much information about yourself as you can. List all animals currently living with you including other dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, and rodents. The application needs to be complete in order to help us determine if the pet you have chosen is a good match for your home.

3. Once the application is submitted we will contact you, your references, and your vet.

4. We require a home visit prior to dog adoptions.

5. If more than one person applies, we will go with the BEST fit. If all things are equal, we go in the order the applications were received.

6. Once the home visit has been completed, you will be asked to complete an adoption agreement.

7. The adoption fee is $325 for dogs under 6 months, $300 for 6 months and older. The adoption fee is $125 for kittens under 1 year ($225 for 2 kittens), $85 for cats 1 year and older. This fee helps us to provide the necessary medical care and other needs for the pets while in foster care.

8. All Paws For Life NC pets are spayed or neutered if old enough, current on shots, micro chipped, and to our knowledge, in good health before they are adopted out. Puppies under 6 months of age will require a $100 refundable spay/neuter deposit in addition to the adoption fee and a special puppy spay/neuter agreement. Kittens under 6 months will require a $50 refundable spay/neuter deposit in addition to the adoption fee. We are all volunteers and receive no monetary compensation for our work with the pets. The adoption fee is used to help defray costs in the rescue and care of the pets.

9. Congratulations! You are on your way to having your new companion. We hope that you and your new companion share a life of love and happiness. We welcome any comments you may wish to give us about your pet at any time.
