Story
Freddy is an aussie mix and was born October 28,2023 He is a very sweet boy and loves everyone and all animals. He is up to date on distemper parvo (self administered) and 1 year rabies. Due to my work schedule, he is having to stay in a crate all but 4-5 hours a day which isn't a good life for him. I want him to have better than that and have made the decision to rehome him so he can have a happier life. He is house trained, knows some tricks like sit, play dead, and shake Very smart and sweet boy I can't keep him much longer due to my work hours soon to be extending at the end of the month. Please someone give him a good home.

Story
Rocko is an 18 month old American English Coonhound and is approximately 80lbs. He was abandoned at my property around this time last year and though I’ve tried my best to give him a good home, I’m not the right human for him He’s house trained and crate trained, up to date on shots, and is the sweetest doofus you’ll ever meet. He likes kids (he likes to jump though) and tolerates cats (he’s honestly kind of scared of cats but isn’t aggressive towards them). I’m rehoming him for two reasons: I’m a single mom with no real time to give him and he’s an escape artist that likes to head straight for the road…I’m afraid he’ll get run over. He needs room to run and/or someone that can devote time to him. He would make an excellent hiking/adventure buddy. He’s really at the peak time to be trained for hunting or sniffing, and he definitely has a talent for both. He’s up to date on all vaccines and is HW negative (and on preventative). Experience with hound dogs is preferable.

Story
Onyx recently went on a Dog Day Out and here's what his DDO buddy had to say! "Meet Onyx, an eight-year-old neutered male Pittie who is about 67 lbs. This adorable guy is all about affection - he lives for pets, hugs and head scritches. We spent a beautiful sunny Dog's Day Out with a long walk and chilling out in the backyard: - He's a little hesitant about jumping up in the backseat - he's willing, just has a bit of trouble doing so gracefully. But once in, he's good to go; either lying down or watching out the window as you head on down the road. - On the greenway, he was happy to walk along at a leisurely pace. He was very patient when we stopped to bird watch and/or do some wildflower identification. He showed only mild interest in other dogs, walkers or runners. - At home, he enjoyed a doggie fro-yo on the patio and then explored the backyard before taking an afternoon nap in the sun. He frequently checks in with you for some affection, and he leans on ya while your loving him up. He knows sits (especially when there is a treat involved) and shake - we're certain he could learn even more commands. He also likes to play with a ball, mostly chasing and chewing them." 2nd DDO: "In all honesty, if my house was slightly bigger Onyx would of just walked right into my house forever after our DDO. Onyx is: - an absolute love bug - wonderful in the car This guy wasn't phased by anything our day including: geese, ducks, 30+bikes at once, dogs, teenagers on zip lines, people, motorized scooters, and a bath. This senior fella is anxiously waiting to meet his forever (or foster) home. TLDR: onyx is perfect and you should adopt him" Onyx really enjoys the company of people, so he will lean against you hard for pets meaning he could potentially knock over a toddler. He's never shown an ounce of aggression but older children who don't mind being a leaning post for our sweet boy would be best! Onyx has been in a crate before. He would heavily pant and whine, but did not try to break out. We feel he could be crate trained, but he also has not been destructive when left out alone. Onyx has had positive experiences with other dogs and prefers calmer, less energetic dogs opposed to overly playful dogs. He mostly acts indifferent towards other dogs. As always, we strongly recommend bringing any resident dogs to the shelter for a meet and greet with potential new family members to be sure it's a good match. If bringing a dog for a meet and greet, please bring proof of up to date rabies, bordetella, and DHPP vaccines. If you are interested in meeting Onyx please contact Foster Coordinator Stephanie at (336) 937-1867 to schedule an appointment. You should receive a response text or call in 24-48 hours!
