Story
Boss is the sweetest, most energetic little boy ever. He can run forever and play with all the toys around him. He is full of personality and would make an amazing family pet and he is the perfect size. When he went on a DDO, we were told, `Boss went for a hike at Shallow Ford and played in the park for awhile. He`s a very happy and affectionate boy! He likes to be active and engaged with you. When he wasn`t sniffing, he could pull on the leash a little. He`s very playful and enjoys tug-of-war. He`ll sit and stay, especially for treats.`**My adoption fee has been sponsored**

Story
This sweet face with the big brown eyes belongs to Waffles, a roughly 6 year old boy who somehow found himself lost. He showed up at a nice person`s house who told us he was very friendly, so she tried to keep him. Waffles did fine with her dog, the cows, and the horses, but her dog decided he didn`t want Waffles to move in. Waffles clearly had an owner as he also seems to know the `sit` and `stay` commands. Wouldn`t you like to have this sweet boy`s handsome face to look at every day?A volunteer told us, `Waffles is ready to enjoy his golden years in a loving home. He is friendly, outgoing, and easy to interact with. He is treat motivated and will sit for treats. He is also good on leash, making him an ideal companion for walks.`Foster notes:Waffles is very independent and sweet. He prefers to be outside. He likes to go on hikes with me and my 2 dogs. He gets along with my dogs and cats, but prefers to be alone I think. He has gotten along with all the people he has met. All adults, both male and female. He has gotten along with the 3 other dogs he’s met, all male, small and large.He is housetrained and has had no accidents in the house. He was in crate for first night and did well. We let him stay out after that. He’s not at all destructive, not a chewer. I don’t leave him out alone with my 2 dogs and 3 cats just to be safe. He resource guards, but only with the other animals. He has nipped at my cat, but was corrected right away and hasn’t done it since. He’s a very fast learner and takes correction well. He really is a nice dog! So smart and so trainable.

Story
Foster notes, 12/5/23:Rockafella is a good boy. He is a senior guy who has done well to meet and continue to greet the neighborhood children. He is anxious around unknown people and pets. So far, I have been unable to do much about his dislike of cats. It seems to be one of the only things that set him off. He takes 2 walks per day (am and pm), and gets to go out off leash in the back yard as often as he asks. He is arthritic in his joints and cannot jump, so he doesn`t get on the house furniture because of this. I have a ramp for him to get in the car. He doesn`t seem to mind riding in the car. He does get anxious about first time adventures. He does not know how to play with toys, but he will sit for a long time for a good petting. He is a smart dog and a fast learner at most times (except for cats). No house training was required for Rockafella! He knows `come` and will ask to go out. I find his behaviors easy to read when he needs or wants something. He is a quiet dog and barks only at cats, alerts me that he wants to come in, and at unknown strangers and reactive dogs on our walks. He has learned to ignore and walk past yappy dogs in our neighborhood. He does not pull on leash and is mostly a loose leash walker (slow to medium pace). I`ve had no problems leaving him at home alone for up to 4 hours. He likes to go out as soon as I get home. The only time he has gotten into things - he was hungry and was rooting for food. And that was only the first week I had him. Can`t leave bagged dogfood on the floor where he can get to it! He sleeps all through the night.He is developing cataracts. He can see but not clearly at a distance . He will stand and stare at something. If it moves he may lunge after it. If it doesn`t move, he will move on. This can be funny when he stares at a bag or toy, only to discover it isn`t a cat he`s looking at. He also will miss verbal commands, so his hearing may not be 100%. He doesn`t react to thunder or fireworks. His nose works fine! Rockafella would be a wonderful untrained service dog for a vet or older adult. He loves to be around me and will just either sit facing me (he wants something) or sit with his back to me(wants to be petted). Otherwise, he is sleeping. He doesn`t like to be outside for long periods.

Story
Foster notes, 7/14/24:Dixie gets along great with everyone. She is calm and submissive with my great grandchildren and neighbors, but only after getting used to them.Before that she barks some, and then finally goes to her bed or under my feet. She`s very protective of me. She watches the deer and squirrels in the back yard.I told her they were my babies, so she doesn`t chase them. She is leash trained and walks and potty on a leash. She runs free in the back yard which has a small forest. She is great by herself. Goes to her bed and doesn`t leave it until I get home. Usually 3 hours. She sleeps all night without having to potty and doesn`t need to be crated. Dixie can be extremely stubborn and hard headed when her mind is set on something. She will not listen at that point!Otherwise, she is calm, patient, and will get along with anybody after she accepts them.New Foster Notes; 6/14/24:Dixie is house trained. She can go from 9pm-7am. She goes to her bed when I leave and stays there until I return. She walks good on a leash. She plays in the house and outside in the back yard. She knows her boundaries. I stay outside with her. She knows what I want her to do. I say go to bed and she goes. Sit down, and let`s eat and many more but not heel, sit up, we are working on give paw. She would do great in any type of homes after she feels comfortable around the person. She is very protective of me, so whoever gains her trust will be protected.She:-Is cuddly and affectionate -Walks well on leash (No or low amount of pulling) -Has met and did well with other dogs -Chases cats/small animals -Does well with small children -Enjoys car rides -Is potty trained-Treat MotivatedNew foster notes, 2/21/24:Dixie is almost finished with her heartworm treatment and is doing well but isn`t allowed to get excited or play too much for another couple of weeks. She`s sweet but doesn`t want anyone but me to take her to potty. She loves my great grandkids who are 2 years to 10 years old. She barks when anyone comes to the house but will stop after about 2 minutes when she starts feeling comfortable. She looks out the storm door at other dogs walking by and will bark. She is house trained and will stand in front of you and just look until you ask her if she wants to go potty. I`m trying to train her to get her leash. She knows different words like sit, come here, get your donut(toy), let`s go, let`s eat, and many

BUTTERCUP

Labrador Retriever

Female, 1 yr 7 mos
Burlington, NC
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Did you know Buttercups represent humility, joy, new beginnings, happiness, and friendship? That`s a lot for such a sweet, tiny flower. But we think it`s a fitting name for this stunning, perky-eared girl. Buttercup came to us as a stray last week and we estimate her to be at least a year or so old. Is no one missing this beautiful girl??? She is a friendly, happy, wiggle-butt pup, and she is ready for a whole new beginning in a home where she can share her joy, friendship and love. Buttercup is at BAS and she is waiting to meet you.Volunteer notes, 6/26/24:Very sweet. Will play fetch with the tennis ball and will sit to be pet. Dog Day Out notes, 5/28/24:Buttercup was the sweetest girl! We had so much fun going to multiple parks (Davidson Park, City Park, Red Slide Park, and the Arboretum). At first she was overexcited and was jumping up a little bit, but that can be corrected with training. She loves to snuggle and cuddle you, and is perfect with car rides. She knows the `sit` command well, and is very treat motivated, so I’m sure she can learn many more commands. She’s a big fan of any love and pets, but the butt scratches are her favorite! Buttercup loves toys and any kind of enrichment. She is very attentive, but wary of new people walking nearby. She did bark once at some people walking past. She can get a tiny bit mouthy whenever you stop petting her--it`s as if she’s trying to move your hand back. She loves to play tug of war with the leash. Perfect friend for the day!
