Story
Meet Charlie -- an almost 2 year old chiweenie that is full of personality! Charlie first came into our rescue as a 6 month old puppy that had been obtained answering a Craigslist ad when he was just 6 weeks old. Because poor Charlie was pulled from his litter too soon and perhaps because he was never properly socialized -- we have worked hard with Charlie in the last year on socalization and training as he has been fostered by a professional dog trainer (who happens to also be one of his biggest fans). Charlie is a total lovebug 99% of the time (and actually in the right home, 100% of the time) and just needs a good home prepared to offer him the structure he needs! Charlie loves his person and other dogs -- and even does well with cats. Charlie takes some time to warm up to new people and just needs someone that will give him space when it is needed. Charlie does have a previous bite history -- bites that are understandable when you understand how sensitive Charlie is in moments of stress and anxiety. Charlie LOVES to do zoomies and loves to play with other small dogs. He is quite the comedian! He has thrived with his trainer -- who will help with his transition into a new home and will be available to assist Charlie's new adopters. Charlie is housetrained, crate trained and leash trained -- and has learned so much during his training with his foster home. Because of Charlie's previous history, we think that it is best if he not go to a home with children under 10 years of age.  Ironically Charlie can be quite the life of the party -- and can make you laugh so hard! He makes silly sounds, entertains himself with toys and loves to snuggle up in your lap for snuggles. Some of his quirks might be lifelong (but let's be honest -- we all have our quirks). We are so hoping that Charlie's forever home is out there with a Charlie size hole in their heart. We know how much love this boy has to give and we are looking forward to finding that home that is seeking a "diamond in the ruff" that they can watch continue to bloom! Charlie is current on vetting, neutered and microchipped -- waiting on his forever home to pop up any day now! ##1789418##

Story
Woodrow Chiweenie 9 (ish) years old 12 pounds Fostered in Raleigh Short list: Sweet, snuggly, protective, housetrained, loves to walk, no kids under 10, needs good introductions for new people coming into the home, no apartments/condos, gets along with other dogs of all sizes, could be only dog, good with cats Here are 10 reasons you should adopt Woodrow: 1. You want to be loved to the moon and back. This boy falls head over heels in love and he lets you know it every possible. Once he picks you, you are the most special person in the world. And he throws a ticker tape parade when you come home. 2. You want a constant companion. This guy wants to be with you so much he not only follows you everywhere, he comes into the bathroom and sits on the mat to wait for you while you take a shower. He draws the line at coming into the water with you, but we are pretty sure it’s crossed his mind. 3. You love to walk. This dude is great a leash and loves to walk (and walk and walk). The more walking Woodrow does, the less energy he has to plot his world takeover. There is currently some debate between Woodrow and his foster dad about whether his plan is a fabulous or terrible idea. 4. You are a leader. Woodrow does best when he doesn’t have the huge burden of being in charge of the universe, at least in his mind. Once he knows that you’ve got all the problems of the world and that you in fact the leader of his world, then he becomes a more confident and relaxed dog. Preferably, you’ve been the leader to a stubborn chiweenie or dachshund in the past. But we are open to anyone who is willing to set (and keep boundaries). 5. You need a security guard. Or at least are not opposed to the idea. Woodrow wants to protect his people and will bark at well, everything. Cars, dogs, people. But once you assure him that all is good, sometimes with a squirt bottle, then he chills out. Except when it comes to vacuum cleaners. He is convinced that they are evil and planning to take over the world. We are pretty sure he will never change is mind and will continue to attack all vacuum cleaners till the end of time. 6. You are willing to do good introductions with new people. All this love and devotion also has a downside – Woodrow is wary of new people coming into his home. But if you do a slow introduction and let him know that your new friend is not going to tie everyone up in the basement and rob the place, then within a few minutes Woodrow will be happily taking treats while sitting on their lap. 7. You want a playful dog. This guy is hilarious. And he loves to play and will have put a toy into your hand when he thinks it’s playtime. His favorite is tug of war, but pretty much any toy or game will do. But we think his zoomies are the absolutely hilarious – no worries, they aren’t all the time but when he gets in the mood, we promise it will make you laugh. 8. You want a dog that knows how to relax. When playtime is over, this guy knows how to take it easy. He’s a master at snuggling under the blankets or finding the perfect spot in the sun. 9. You want to adopt a dog with a great story. Woodrow was found as a stray in a rural county and landed in a very full shelter. He was sitting a crate stacked in the hallway. And his name was on euthanasia list. Thankfully, a volunteer reached out and we got him safe. 10. You want to adopt an amazing dog. Woodrow isn’t for everyone. But for the right person, they are going to fall head over heels with this guy and declare he’s the world’s best dog. He will be your side kick and your best friend till the end of time. Woodrow is UTD on shots, heartworm negative neutered, had a dental cleaning, and microchipped. His new family will need to travel to Raleigh to adopt him – no transports. We prefer to adopt to NC, VA, SC and DC area. To get the process started of bringing Woodrow into your family, fill out an application at www.doxiebyproxy.org/application And if Woodrow isn't a fit for you, please share with your friends and family to help this handsome boy find his five-star forever home. ##2068045##

Story
Meet Vito, a 6 year old chiweenie that found himself at the doors local animal shelter and not very happy about the situation!  You may recognize him - he was on the hunt for a family back in the Summer.  Vito is back because he is cute & moody.  He needs a savvy home that is familiar with the likings of a moody small dog.  But once Vito learns the rules and you earn his respect, he is a lovely housemate. Vito is a very loving boy.  He does enjoy his human & spending time together.  He is a great housemate!  But Vito's love can turn a smidge grumpy at times & his new family will need to navigate.  For example, Vito loves to sit & take up all the space on his foster mom's lap.  But when the smushfest is over, Vito may not be ready for it to end & can be grumpy in gaining his cooperation.  Vito's foster mom is currently using a leash to encourage him to do the things he needs to & the process is working beautifully.  She will happily teach you her techniques.  His foster mom reports he is responding positively to her rules! Put simply - Vito is a guy's guy.  Vito prefers the male in his home over everyone else.  He can co-exist with others but he will give his love & loyalty to his man friend & you will simply have to accept it!   To his make human, he will worship you - wait for you in your recliner, mope around waiting for you & then celebrate your arrival.  Vito is textbook man's best friend! Vito is calm and relaxed — and enjoys long walks.  He is a great walker but can be reactive on a leash toward other dogs.  This is manageable & with work, can diminish.  Vito does need a fenced backyard.  Some of his moodiness may be stored up energy & his foster mom believes a yard he can run in is best for him expending the energy.  Vito does enjoy walks and outings, but he may not be the dog that would enjoy many large social outings.  He will prefer the comfort of his home, his yard & his routine.   Vito gets along well with other dogs but prefers them to be more on his level of activity (quiet and calm) versus hyper and playful (though he has proven that at times he loves to do zoomies in the backyard).  He is being fostered with a very bossy female dachshund that is the leader of the pack - Vito Cooper does not challenge her & has learned his role! Vito has nipped before & some of his low grumbles are likely his form of communication, but because of this, we will not place him in a home with children under the age of 12.  Vito does grumble - sometimes it is just his way of saying hello and sometimes he is telling you he is not happy.  You learn his speech & if we are honest (granted we are not normal people here at DBPR!), we love a pup that communicates, so Vito's grumbling is endearing.  But his new family will need to earn his respect by setting boundaries for him & also allowing him to be himself.  It's a balance that we know can be reached.  Vito & his foster parents have struck this balance and will gladly show you the ropes. Vito is current on vaccines, heartworm negative and has been neutered with a full dental polish at the same time.  He is fostered on the NC coast so any perspective family will need to travel to the area.  We prefer adopters within a few hour radius of NC in neighboring states.  His adoption fee is $300.   Vito recognizes he is not the easiest kid to find a new home.  That reality does not upset him!  He always wanted us to remind you that you too are moody & grumble when people make you mad - so don't judge him!  But in all seriousnesses, we are seeking a savvy home that will accept his quirks & work with them; one that will have a human that is his pack leader & will set boundaries; and defintely one that will provide him the stability he has never had and love him endlessly.  Even the difficult ones are worth it! ##2099677##

Story
Sugar is, as her name implies, the sweetest girl in the world! This darling girl hasn't ever met a stranger despite having faced some pretty sad circumstances that landed her in the arms of rescue. It is quite evident that Sugar has been so loved in her lifetime but that love came to halt when her owner passed away and she was brought to the shelter with her dog buddy (who had already been rescued prior to our getting called for Sugar). Sugar is no young gun -- her fast paced days are well behind her and she is very content to follow you from room to room until you finally land on the recliner (actually, we aren't sure that Sugar has ever really had fast paced days). Sugar has a birth deformity that has left her with a significantly deformed front leg and paw that cannot bear any weight. That doesn't bother Sugar, she manages just fine! In fact, instead of your pity she would prefer your love instead. Sugar is quick to wag her tail and make new friends everywhere she goes. There really is not much of a downside to loving little Sugar. She does need some help with her potty habits -- it appears whomever loved her before maybe overlooked her accidents from time to time. But if you get her on a good routine and take her out often, she does quite well when she is outside (but only if you stay outside with her). If going for walks, Sugar would prefer to ride in a stroller as navigating life as a 3-legged older lady is a bit difficult. And speaking of old -- we really do not have any idea Sugar's age but we are sure she is over the age of 8 and probably under the age of 10 -- but age is just a number anyway and Sugar says her love is what is most important! Sugar gets along great with other dogs and cat friends -- just wishing to mostly move around the house from recliner to sofa and back to the recliner again (at your pace)! She would be fine around children too though young children might be a bit much for her low key preferences. Sugar is in excellent health! She just had a dental recently and is current on all other vetting. Now it is time for us to help Sugar find that 5-star retirement home we have been telling her about (though her foster dad is so crazy about her and said if he could swing just one more of his own, she would be the one he would choose)! ##2215328##

Please read ALL of this listing prior to emailing with questions or inquiries. If you are interested in Deana and feel that you would be a good match for her, you MUST FIRST fill out and submit our application at: https://foreverhomek9rescue.org/adoption-application/ (copy and paste). After we receive your application and review it, we will contact you. Thank you! Biscuit is a cute little 11-lb. Dachshund/Chihuahua mix who is looking for his forever home and family, along with his buddy, Dixie. We're told he's about 11-years old, but he certainly doesn't act like a senior... he still has plenty of energy and enjoys going for long walks. In his foster home, Biscuit gets along well with the other three small dogs. He is well housetrained, and 'does his business' on a leash since his foster home doesn't have a fenced yard. Biscuit does sleep in a crate at night, but doesn't enjoys it and will complain for a while before he settles down. He does not do well riding in a car, so a family who generally stays close to home and will take him for nice long walks (which he really enjoys) will be best for him. Biscuit especially loves his foster dad, and will cuddle next to or on him whenever possible. We know that he would love to have a male in his new family! Biscuit is neutered, microchipped, current on his Distemper/Parvo, Bordetella and Rabies vaccinations, and tested negative for Heartworms. He also received a dental cleaning, so he is fully vetted and ready to go to his forever home. Biscuit's adoption fee is $400.00 if adopted separately. The adoption fee is $600.00 for Biscuit and Dixie together. Biscuit is a loving, sweet, and smart little boy who deserves only the best home and family! If you feel that you would like to add Biscuit (or Biscuit and Dixie together) to your family, please submit an application at: https://foreverhomek9rescue.org/adoption-application/ (copy and paste). Forever Home Canine Rescue offers a three-week trial period with all of our adoptions, just to be sure that the pet is a good match for the adopting family. The fee is refunded if the adoption does not work out within the trial period. We want to be sure that each of our pets will have their perfect 'forever' home! Although Forever Home Canine Rescue adopts out-of-state, we never ship or transport our pets. An approved adopter must come to North Carolina to meet their new canine companion and then take him/her back home with them.

We don't know about cats, but since she's so laid-back we're pretty certain she would be fine with cats. She is housetrained and crate trained.
