Story
ADOPTION PENDING MEDICATION:** Champion was literally shutting down and near death at 23 Ibs. He is now a healthy 62 Ibs and has fully recovered following direct hands on daily care and love. Champion is a sweet and sensitive soul and needs a person that is equally as such. He will offer his paw, sit and lay down for treats. He's a good boy that gets along with all other resident canines and seems to be quite intuitive to the needs of others. As our senior dog was rapidly declining, Champ sat by him as if watching over him and keeping him company. He then went and got his most prized possession a toy and brought that over to lay in front of him. He LOVES his toys, especially his nylar bone and rope toys. He loves to cuddle up on the couch and is just a little tank. He is fully recovered from his past ordeal, but requires a grain free diet. We are seeking a person, couple or family that will integrate him into their own as an indoor family companion. Although he can be left alone without issue, we are seeking someone who can spend time with him. He loves walks, car rides, did we mention cuddling on the couch....and loves it when you talk to him and tell him about your day. He listens as if he really cares and understands. Lifetime commitment only, lifetime of love guaranteed in return.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.April 5, 2025, 1:49 pm

Story
HOLD / PENDING Gypsy is a very intelligent, loyal girl who loves to play tag with other dogs. She knows all her basic commands and is extremely affectionate with people she trusts. She can get anxiety when outdoors on walks if there is traffic or loud noises. We believe this is because she was caught in a trap and her first real interactions with people was a traumatic experience.  She acts as the "welcome committee" for new dogs coming into our rescue and seems nurturing of the younger ones - showing them the ropes. She is very intuitive and has all of the behavior traits one would expect with a Carolina Dog.  We would anticipate her going to a new home and environment to be a daunting experience for her at first so a person who is breed familiar and willing to be patient and build trust on her terms is needed. Gypsy also loves other canine companionship and being part of a pack so a home with at least one other dog would be required for adoption.  Applications for adoption can be submitted at lovar.orgVisit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.April 5, 2025, 1:49 pm

Story
A cuddler and social butterfly! This big boy is a big love. He is a happy boy, low maintenance, enjoys hiking, walking , car rides, massages and ice-cream cones.  He will follow you around, lay by you, walk nicely on leash and crash on a bed or couch (a little snoring may be included).  George came to us from a county shelter. They said he was aggressive with other dogs. We never saw that, and he has been very friendly with a large male dog, but as a precaution, we would recommend he be the one and only canine family member.   He likes the outdoors but wants to be with you so he is looking for an indoor home where he can provide and have companionship.  He has lived with other dogs, did well with mindful, considerate older kids. George does not like cats. He is our trainers favorite and comes with continued free training.

Story
Khloe was adopted from the Humane Society in Tucson, AZ in April of 2016. At the time they assumed she was approx. 2 years old. Breed is unknown. She is a tripod, when I picked her out she had all 4 legs, but was dragging the rear, left leg. They amputated her leg and had me pick her up the next day, it was quite the experience for the both of us. I recently moved into a one bedroom apartment and work long hours; therefore, I am unable to provide her with the attention she deserves. She is a very sweet, loving dog and deserves the proper care and attention. She needs someone who is going be around a majority of the time, because she have some separation anxiety tendencies. Khloe has been around dogs of varying sizes and also children as young as an infant. Please reach out to me with any other questions!

Story
Millie loves people and enjoys being outdoors but would love the comfort of her own home with someone as dedicated to her as she will be to them. Although she thrives in the company of people, she doesn't like other dogs so she would be seeking a home where she's someone's one and only. She is sweet and precious with a lot of love to give. Millie comes with a training and transition package. Her adoption fee is $50.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.April 5, 2025, 1:49 pm

HOLD/ PENDING Wylie is a Carolina Dog that has all the traits of this very special breed. She is undergoing socialization but in the time spent with her, she is going to be a sweet and a devoted companion. She loves other dogs and to romp and play with them.
