Story
Nala is a wonderful, loving sweet girl. Whoever she bonds with will be for life. She really needs an active home. We found her a year ago and have tried to make it work, but we can't give her the amount of exercise she needs. She has gotten into one fight with a neighbor dog, a small one and chases my cats around the house. She has been great with all children though. Occasionally nips. Does do the husky howl.

Story
Fancy is being fostered by us and is up to date on shots and is in good health, last vet visit was March 14, 2025. Our price is based on the full check up vet visit. Fancy likes to run and play, so a home with a fence or dog park where she can run would be ideal. She is good with other dogs, not sure about cats. We are not sure how she is with children as we don't have any and we don't know if she has been around any.

Maverick

German Shepherd Dog

Male, Adult
Carthage, NC
Size
(when grown) X-Large 101 lbs (46 kg) or more
Details
Good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Maverick came from a breeder in Clemson, SC. He was born in January 2019. I bought Maverick because I grew up with German shepherds as a child and I wanted one of my own, at the time I lived on my own. He helped me feel secure and safe living in a city alone. Maverick has always been a higher anxiety dog that requires a decent amount of attention. He loves affection and responds well to positive reinforcement with food/dog treats. He has never been aggressive towards other dogs, or people. He is occasionally defiant when he is being made to do something he doesn’t want to do (wear a muzzle, he dislikes this a lot). He does have a preference of females, but is friendly with my dad, brother and male family members and friends. I am in need of rehoming Maverick because I am moving out of my apartment complex into a townhouse community where Maverick isn’t allowed due to his breed and weight (he weighs approximately 120lbs).

Story
Seeking to re home our Staffy. Our family adopted King from a local shelter. He is a year old and will be 2 in December. King needs an assertive owner and will thrive in a single dog household. He does well with children and people. My youngest is 6. Of course, interactions should always be supervised. King does not interact well with some male dogs. He interacts with female dogs fine. Our family is currently working with him and a dog trainer. Not sure about cats as we’ve never had any. He was very curious when we took in a lost cat for a few hours while we found its owners. He is high energy, very loving, affectionate, playful and wants to please. He is house trained, crate trained, follows commands, microchipped, and walks well. His crate, muzzle and e collar will be included. Everything we've bought for his training. King is UTD on all vaccinations and rabies.

Terrier (Unknown Type, Medium)

Cameron, NC
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Paislee is 10 months old and recently spayed. She has her rabies vaccination only. She has a ton of energy and can be a little stubborn. She prefers to not be left alone as we feel that she has some separation anxiety. She is great with other dogs however not so great with chickens and ducks. She may have some bird dog species in her. She is very loving and cuddly. She is also great with children. She does have to be reminded to not jump up though. We are not home enough to support her needs and feel that she would have a better life with a family that has more time. Please let us know if you have any questions.

Story
This is Lou, the six (ish) month old Black Labrador/Shepherd mix. He has had a rough start to his short life here on Earth. He was dumped on the side of a busy highway, along with a littermate a few months ago. The littermate was later hit and killed by a car, and he had been in the same spot since. We have been trying to catch him for three months now and he was finally caught on 4 February 2024. He is a very sweet boy and we have been calling him "Lou" and "Mr. Bubs". He has surprised me so much in the short time I have had him. Lou has not had any accidents in the house, loves cuddles and scritches, and is so gentle with treats. Lou loves kids and loves female dogs. He would do excellent as the only dog, or a buddy to a female dog. If I didn't already have four dogs myself, I would keep him in a heartbeat. He really deserves a loving and warm home, he has definitely earned it. Please reach out if you are interested in adopting Lou. I will transport him anywhere.
