My personality

My story

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

Adorable Ziggy is an American Staffie who was rescued during Hurricane Helene in western N.C. He's a very sweet and brave guy who is almost 3 years old and weighs 41 pounds (ideally could add another 8-10 pounds). He's very friendly with everyone he meets including kids, dogs and even strangers! He's playful, kind and loves to get and give love. His Foster Mom says " He is such a sweet boy and is a real snuggler...he will full on spoon me if I let him in the bed. He's walks really really well on a leash even next to a stroller which is not an easy task" Give him a good bone to chew and it's like he won Lotto! He deserves a great adopter who will love him forever. Reach out to Long Road Home Rescue (lrhrescue@gmail.com) to get more info on this great little guy.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

The process is simple:

1. Email with an inquiry about the dog you are interested in. If you are just ready to adopt but are not sure which of our dogs would be best suited our experts would be happy to advise in the best fit for your home.

2. We will send you an application for more information about your and your family. Upon receiving the filled out application we will set up a meet-and-greet.

3. The meet-and-greet is where you and your family get to meet our dogs. Please understand that our dogs are in foster homes so we must plan around your schedule and theirs. An average meet and greet will happen either on a weekend or a week day evening; it will last about an hour.

4. Lastly we bring the dog to your home. This is the final step in the adoption process. We try to bring the dogs into a new home on a friday or saturday so you have time to adjust the dog into your home before starting work again. If you have any other animals a trainer will assist in bring the dog into your house.

Our most important goal is for you and our dog to be as comfortable and happy!

Go meet their pets

We are completely foster based program.Our dogs are located throughout the island waiting to meet and greet with their future families.

If you would like to contribute to help save a dog. We are in great need of loving people who are willing to commit their time to our wondeful dogs.

Here's some ways to help:

Do you have some space in your house but don't want permanent family addition? Do you want to teach your kids some responsibility but not make a 15 year commitment? Consider becoming a foster parent!
Foster parents are wonderful people who dedicate their home and their time to our dogs for a little bit of time. A dog will be placed into your home to love and enjoy until they find a forever home. We provide the food, bedding and crates for our dogs. They will go into your home after they have been fully vetted. We do ask that you give our dogs lots of love and attention. We will also ask for up to date photos to get some exposure for the dogs. Our rescue cannot survive without our wonderful foster

If you are not able to foster we still would love to work with you! We are always in need of committed volunteers who like to do events. We are always interested in community involvement as well as doing Expos. If you are enthusiastic about being involved in the community and love animals we need your help! Expos and events are normally on the weekends so we welcome you to bring your friends to keep company and promote the work that we do. We never do on site adoptions so there is no stress at all. We normally bring one or two of our dogs to events. Call us today if you're interested!

Please help by sponsoring a life!
