Story
This is Fiona, the most cuddliest dog that ever existed. In September 2024, during Hurricane Helene, a landslide took her home in Swannanoa. She has been moved around multiple times since then, and currently without a yard. During the pandemic and ensuing isolation, Fiona had developed some reactivity issues with order dogs and had received some training and gotten better, until Hurricane Helene hit and her training facility was also flooded. Without a stable home and a safe area to run and explore, Fiona's reactivity has gotten worse and her owner has had to make the decision to try to find a place better suited for her needs. Ideally, Fiona needs land or a fenced-in yard to run in. She is a hound dog & likes to chase and follow scent trails wherever they may go. She has reactivity towards other dogs, but once she gets to know them she loves to play. Fiona has lived both with other dogs and other cats.. just needs time to acclimate to her new fur friends first. 10/10 best cuddlebug.

Story
We took Duke in from our friends brother. Duke spent 23 out of 24 hours a day in a crate because the owner wasn’t allowed to have him in the house. He was terribly infested with fleas, so I couldn’t let him stay there. Unfortunately I just didn’t know what all was involved in taking care of a husky. He is a great dog. He loves people and other dogs! Our home is very small and he is rather large. He lives outside but we feel like he deserves a better home with more attention for him. He also needs a groomer to handle his coat that is not in the best shape. We can’t afford that and he strongly dislikes any touching on his backside. Other than that he’s not a hard dog. He’s stubborn by nature as that comes with the breed, but he would make any one that has the time for him so happy!

High energy, absolutely zero aggression issues and house trained. I am finding her a new home because my work life balance has shifted and I feel she would be happier in a home where she was able to get more attention.

Story
She wandered to our house and we feed her and her brother they were obviously hungry. We tried to find the owners for days with no luck. Her and her brother are gentle and sweet. My granddaughter plays with her and her brother a lot. She and her brother are staying with my son and his dogs. They would love to keep them but they gave three dogs already. We want her to have a loving home.

Story
Shiloh is a great dog. She would be perfect on a large plot of land with a family. She is high energy and explorative. She is a fast learner, food motivated and has many commands. Her release word from a stay or her asking for something is "Free". Shiloh was found with 5 siblings in a parking lot on a hot day in Raleigh a year and a half ago. Now she loves winter, and playing in water on hot days. She is great candidate for buttons, as she has learned to hold or offer affirmative barks on the word of the thing she wants. Housebroken, loving, emotionally aware, crate trained. I am just looking for a family that can provide her the attention, space and activity she needs to be fulfilled.
