Story
BONDED PAIR. Needs to be adopted together to a home without pets. They are dog aggressive and scared of cats. Jax (GSP) has chronic ear infections and needs regular vet visits. Rubin (beagle) needs to continue to be on a diet to lose weight (he used to be severely obese, medicated food is encouraged.) They are very loving dogs and require a lot of physical attention and activity. They are very protective over their people and family. They have been the best dogs for me, I just cannot continue to financially support them. I’m not looking for any money, just the right home for my boys.

Ori

German Shepherd Dog

Male, Adult
Princeton, NC
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Ori is a playful and affectionate dog who's looking for a family to shower him with love and attention. He's great with children, especially young ones, and loves to be the center of attention. While he can get a bit rambunctious during playtime, he's never aggressive and simply doesn't realize his own size. Ori may need some time to adjust to living with other dogs. While he's friendly, he can be a bit boisterous at first. With patience and proper introductions, he'll warm up to canine companions. He's currently bonded to our Australian shepherd Luna who can go with him. We're hoping to find a family who can provide Ori with the time, attention, and training he needs to thrive. If you're looking for a loyal and loving companion, Ori could be the perfect fit for you.

Story
Remi & Apollo are brothers! Born 12/5/23. Up to date on vaccines. They are sweet! Lap dogs when allowed to be. They get along with my 13-year-old Goolden doodle, my 4-year-old GSP, as well as my 3-year-old Labradoodle and Cat! However, they are not getting along well with my 9-month-Old great Pyrenees. They are crate trained & sleep together in a crate every night. They are trained on an inground fencing system. They have just recently started eating once a day. Usually in the evenings. They eat 3 cups of food each. They have separate bowls and feed at the same time, with no problems. Remi is a cuddle buddy, and while Apollo likes attention, he isn't as adamant about getting it. I rescued them as 6-week-old puppies. They have always been skittish, around strangers but never aggressive towards any human. Good with my nieces and nephews. I'm hoping to find them a new forever home, while my intentions to save them were pure, I have overloaded my plate.
