Story
Meeko spent eight years in a backyard before coming to us, but please don`t feel sorry for him. He`s accustomed to being outside, and it`s where he feels most at home. While he could adjust to being an inside dog, we believe he would thrive spending the majority of his time in a fenced-in yard, eagerly awaiting his person`s return to play fetch with tennis balls. Meeko`s eyes light up with joy when he`s chasing after those tennis balls, and it warms our hearts to see him so happy. Resembling a short-legged Lab mix, Meeko is an incredibly affable companion. He has made remarkable progress in understanding how to walk on a leash and has discovered a deep love for exploring outside the confines of the yard. If there`s someone out there with a fenced-in yard who would cherish a wonderfully cheerful, ball-loving, and compactly built good boy that adores human company, please consider meeting our Meeko!

Story
Hey there! I’m Luke, a male Lab Mix (at least that’s what I look like) eagerly searching for my forever home. Let me tell you a bit about myself. First and foremost, I’m a friendly and affectionate guy. I absolutely love being around people and showering them with love and cuddles. Playtime is my favorite, and I’m always up for some fun and games. Now, don’t let my playful nature fool you—I’m also incredibly smart. I pick up on things quickly and love learning new tricks and commands. You can count on me to impress you with my intelligence. I’m quite the curious pup too. I enjoy exploring my surroundings and discovering new things. Life is an adventure, and I’m always ready to embark on it with enthusiasm. When it comes to athleticism, I’m no slouch. I thrive on staying active and engaging in physical activities. Whether it’s going on adventurous walks or participating in playtime, I’ll be your loyal and energetic partner.

Charlie

American Pit Bull Terrier

Male, Adult
Clyde, NC
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Not good with kids, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Charlie is a well mannered tripod one-eyed boy who does great in a crate, and he’s house trained. While Charlie won’t make a good brewery dog, he does make a perfect nap companion and is content waiting at home for you to return. Charlie can be uncomfortable and intimidated by men and strangers, so it’s best he keeps his distance and wears a muzzle in public. He is absolutely wonderful in the car and loves, loves, LOVES car rides. Charlie gives the best kisses and he’s waiting to share his love with a family who can understand and respect his limits. Ideally, he would be the only critter in the home, with no kids or young children. He is a perfect, well-mannered boy who knows basic commands such as sit, come, and stay. Thanks to Charlie’s Behaviorist, Tiffany, he can now cohabitate with other respectful and size appropriate dogs, but will require slow integration. Charlie is a mellow, laid-back boy who is comfortable waiting at home for his people to return. He is house & crate trained, and would love nothing more than a chill movie day! We are determined to find Charlie his forever family, but we’re also realistic that that will take some time. For now, Charlie would love to enjoy some time with a foster family. He’ll need a family who can meet him where he’s at, respect his limitations, and commit to working with him through his obstacles. Charlie is such a good boy and he deserves the world! Reach out if you're interested in fostering or adopting this very special boy. Charlie is currently being fostered in Columbus, OH.

Ginger

Mountain Cur

Female, Adult
Clyde, NC
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Not good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Ginger was found as a stray and her owners were never found. She is very shy and unsure of the world around her, but is making progress. It does not seem that she was shown much love before she came to us, and we believe she was dumped along with her sister. We know as she gets comfortable, she will open up and be such a sweet girl. Ginger is looking for a forever home with someone who is kind and patient as she learns that she is safe and secure. Winning over the nervous ones always pays back tenfold! Ginger does well with other dogs, and would benefit from having another confident dog to show her the ropes! Ginger is currently being fostered in Ohio.

Story
Meet Beau! This playful young guy is looking for a forever family. At this time, he should be kept separated from other dogs in the home, and only older or no kids. Beau was previously very dog friendly, but in his last home experienced some issues with the other dog in the home and needs some time to decompress and feel safe. Beau has some classic teenager antics, and will benefit greatly from some positive training - we have some great local and virtual recommendations! If you're interested in fostering or adopting this goofy guy, reach out today! We would love to get him out of the Clubhouse and into a home. Beau is up to date on vaccines and neutered.
