Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
He will be seven years old on December 3rd, 2024. He is very high energy, and house-broken. Good with people and kids, but jealous when it comes to other animals. He does live with other dogs and gets along well with them, but he prefers all the attention. Best if he is the only pet in home. Doesn’t bite and not aggressive, but does jump, a lot. He is a very sweet boy and loves to cuddle. When you receive him, you will get his collar, vest, and leash along with him. Needs a bigger house and a place to run and release his energy.

Story
I rescued Prancer and her seven siblings/ mother from euthanasia when she was just 2 weeks old. I fostered them until 10 weeks where they received loving homes! Or so I thought. Prancer unfortunately did not go to a well placed home. She has been neglected (left in a closet in a kennel for days to sit in urine and feces). I was able to get her back under my care two months ago, however, I am a college student and I know she deserves more time than I can give her. She has no history of aggression of ANY kind. She is a very sweet girl and although she was neglected, she does not show it. She is not aggressive towards people (she will be protective walking outside when with her people. She’s is all bark no bite), plays tremendously well with dogs at daycare, and gets along perfectly with my cat. She is one years old and due to her history she is re-learning potty training. High energy puppy!!! I am in NO RUSH to rehome her, message if interested. Thanks!

Story
I got Haku 2 years ago from a neighbor who could not take care of him; the plan was always to foster him. He loves being outside. He has not ever hurt a cat but he chases them and he plays with a lot of energy which is fine for my pit, but maybe not for some other dogs. He loves strangers but has a tendency to jump. He could run, walk, and play all day without getting tired. He is crate trained but he will eat any dog bed you give him.

Story
Hambone was the first of his Thanksgiving Eve litter adopted at 8 weeks old but sadly the family said one was allergic only a few days in. Instead of returning to the litter he went to our foster family where he can get all the love, attention and training so his next home will be his true forever home. Husky puppies need a fenced in yard due to their nature and lots of exercise so please make sure you meet this criteria before reaching out. There is a perfect pup for everyone but we want to make sure this smart and lovable pup finds the right family for him. Since Hambone has been in our home we have him on a 2-3 hour bathroom schedule and mostly sleeps through the night 4-6 hours. During the day he usually sits in front of the back door or paws when he knows he needs/wants to go out. He sits like a gentleman on command also will go in crate and sit before he eats. He will come with 19x30 crate (temp fits), food, bed, Seresto collar and all the toys he took over from my dog, lol.

Story
Adorable Gracie is looking for her BFF. She loves cuddling in bed, snuggling on the couch, and being everywhere you are. Gracie gets along well with cats but does need to be your one and only canine bestie. She just has so much love to give that she doesn't want to share yours. Gracie has a stable grade 2 heart murmur that is managed with one medication. She has just received a check up and echocardiogram and should be set for the next 6-12 months. She has a trick knee which thankfully doesn't cause her pain or prevent her from going on walks. Gracie is 5 years old and just as sweet as can be. Gracie is located in Charlotte but can be transported within the NC/SC area.
