Hello all! This is Squishmallow and he came to us as a stray, so unfortunately we do not know much about his history. He is a large sized dog who is looking for his forever home! He did very well on intake and is a sweet guy. We recommend Squishmallow be adopted into a family who ideally has lots of fenced in backyard space for him to frolic in or a family who is interested in a nice ranch dog to do their daily farm chores with! Due to his size, he likely would not benefit as an apartment dog. As always we recommend slow and monitored introductions between Squishmallow and any other animals/people already in the home over a period of time so that they can adjust to each other.

Please visit http://www.orangecountync.gov/287/Available-Pets if you have questions about available pets, adopting, or visiting our facility. You may also call 919-942-7387, option 3, to speak with a staff member at our adoption desk.
If the staff is unable to answer right away, please leave a clear message with your full name and contact number. Our staff responds to messages in the order they are received. Every effort will be made to respond to messages the same day, but it is possible that you may not receive a callback until the next business day due to the high volume of calls we often receive. See our operating hours on our website.
-Adopting-
Some animals can be taken home the same day they are adopted, but those adoptions must occur before a certain time of day and are dependent upon several factors. If you are interested in taking a pet home on the same day you adopt, please consult with the adoption desk to find out if that pet is able to go home right away. See more information on adoption and adoption fees on our website.
