My story

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

(DOB 05/28/2019) Micheal is heartworm positive, but don't let that stop you from adopting. Our rescue will pay for the treatment & will be adoptable within 1 hour of Wake Forest, NC during the treatment period.



Meet the one and only Michaela, a lovable girl with a heart as big as her paws! Michaela is a true sweetheart, always eager to make new friends and shower them with love. She's the kind of dog who will melt your heart with a wag of her tail and a gentle nuzzle.  While she’s super friendly, Michaela has a little bit of extra enthusiasm when it comes to walks; she tends to pull toward people like she’s on a mission to greet every passerby. When she is not on a mission to meet a new best friend on her daily walks, she is stopping, sniffing, and taking her time to check out the world around her.



When up close and personal, she’s all about snuggles, sweet kisses, to let you know just how much she cares. Michaela is an absolute attention lover! She’ll happily soak up all the pets, belly rubs, and snuggles you can give her. Her favorite place in the world is right by your side, where she can enjoy endless affection and give you all her love in return. Whether it's a gentle scratch behind the ears or a full-on belly rub session, Michaela is always ready to show you just how much she appreciates the attention!



Michaela would really thrive with a secure fenced yard (she can be a door/gate dasher so make sure to always have those securely closed & locked for her) where she can run, play, and get all the exercise she deserves. Currently, she's been enjoying a more chill lifestyle, which means she's packed on a little extra fluff (but don’t worry—she’s still as beautiful and loving as ever)! So a home with a 4-5ft fence is what Michaela has her eye on! That being said, other than that she's pretty flexible as far as family dynamics; she could be an only dog or be in a home with doggie siblings. Michaela hasn't had much of an opportunity to meet the little kiddos or cats.



When it comes to her food, treats, and toys, Michaela can be a bit of a "princess" and prefers to keep her favorite things all to herself. She’s a natural guardian of her prized possessions and isn’t eager to share, so it’s best to offer these items in separate spaces to keep things peaceful. Consider Michaela a bit of a "food, treat, and toy enthusiast"—she’s got a big personality when it comes to her favorites!



Michaela is a road trip enthusiast! She’s always ready for an adventure and loves hitting the open road with her favorite humans. Whether it's a quick trip to the park or a weekend getaway, Michaela is all about exploring new places and soaking in the sights and smells along the way. With her love for travel, she’s the perfect co-pilot for any journey, eagerly hopping into the car with her tail wagging and a big smile on her face. Ready to take her along for the ride? She’s always up for the next adventure!



If you’re looking for a gorgeous, affectionate, and slightly silly companion who’s ready to find her forever family, Michaela might be just the girl for you!



As part of Michaela’s $300 adoption fee, she will be spayed, microchipped, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, and current on her monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives. If you have questions about this sweet little girl, you can email  Dogteam@pawsforlifenc.org.  If you wish to adopt Michaela, you can fill in an online application for her 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.
