Story
Sable is being fostered in Tennessee. Sable is a wonderful dog whose only goal in life is to cuddle you and be loved. Sable is a confident dog who gets along with cats and every single dog he has met. Nothing phases Sable, he loves to go on adventures, rides great in the car and is a perfect gentleman on a leash. Sable will do well in a quiet or hectic household, he doesn't startle easily and overcomes new challenges quickly. He uses a doggy door, kennels well and runs the house freely without worry. Sable does have some separation anxiety and does not like to be left alone...other animals in the house are a comfort but he really wants humans nearby. He is not destructive but does search for you if you leave. He has puppy energy but a walk or another dog to play with will make him content and he will be a couch potato with you once you get energy off him. Great with kids of all ages and will make an amazing family dog. BDRA has voted against the use of electrical fencing effective immediately.

A vibrant, affectionate dog with boundless energy, currently seeking a loving forever home where their playful spirit can thrive. This sweet pup has a history of seizures, now fully managed with medication, and is exceptionally well-behaved around other animals, making them a great companion for a multi-pet household. Their high energy levels require plenty of exercise and mental stimulation, but their gentle nature and love for cuddles make them a true delight to be around. A loving family with an understanding of their medical needs is ideal to provide this energetic, loyal companion with a happy, stable life.

Meet Isabel, a sweet and soulful black Lab who will turn 10 in January. Isabel’s life has been full of challenges—she spent most of her years in a backyard while her owner bravely battled cancer. Despite her past, Isabel has an enormous heart and a deep love for people. She craves attention and affection more than anything else and thrives when she’s around those who can give her the love she deserves. While Isabel wasn’t trained and is just discovering the joy of toys and play, she’s eager to learn and adapt. She’s still active, loves going on walks, and enjoys playing at the dog park. Isabel has lived with other dogs and gets along well with animals. Though she hasn’t spent much time around children, her gentle, loving nature suggests she’d be a wonderful family companion. Isabel is looking for a home where she can finally be an indoor pet and a cherished member of the family. Could you be the one to give this amazing senior dog her happily ever after?

Story
Hi, I’m Betty Jo, but my foster parents call me Jo-Jo! I’m sweeter than sweet tea! I’m getting along great with my foster dog brother and foster cat sister. My favorite thing to do is follow my foster parents around the house and sleep on their couch. I am potty trained, but a little nervous going outside on my own. I’m also learning how to use the crate and basic commands like sit, stay, and come! My foster parents would call me sweet, quiet, and a little clumsy. I’d thrive in a calm household with or without other pets (so long as they’re not too energetic!) I could probably tolerate young children but would rather just snuggle with someone on the couch. I hope to find my fur-ever home soon!

Story
Hello! My name is Victoria. I'm a very loving and laid-back dog who enjoys playing with squeaky balls. I love to smell the flowers and roll around in the grass. I play with my own toys and don't chew anything that belongs to people. I don't try to escape the yard. I'm a good jumper, but I patiently wait for you at the gate. I'm good with children but not other dogs or cats. I would do best with older children who I can play around with. I was rescued from a shelter where they were going to euthanize me. I was saved in the nick of time and still have a lot of love to give. I will cuddle with you on the couch and ask you to rub my belly. I don't bark much, but I do howl sometimes, which is very cute. I am a 2-years-old, medium sized, lab mix. I am up to date on vaccines and spayed. I am heartworm positive and will be treated by my rescue until I test negative. I walk great on the leash and will even wait patiently at the door to go in/out. I will go right in my crate with no fuss and sleep well through the night. I am also housebroken. I'm currently staying at a foster home in Elizabeth City, NC, but can be transported to other nearby states for the right match. I'm eager to find my forever family. If you think we could be a perfect match, please contact Woofers and ask for Victoria. I hope to see you soon and give you some howls of joy!

Story
Hey there, I'm Fagan, your soon-to-be best friend and cuddle buddy! At just one year old and weighing a proud 49lbs, I'm a dream come true for anyone looking for a loyal companion. I'm neutered, vaccinated, crate trained, and I've got this house-living thing down pat. I'm still exploring all the nooks and crannies of a cozy home, but I'm a quick learner, especially when it comes to house manners. I'm a social butterfly who gets along great with other dogs – I absolutely adore playing with my girls here! I have not been cat-tested, but I can be if you’d like. I'm a happy-go-lucky little guy who loves nothing more than snuggling up on the couch with you. If you're looking for a furry friend to share your bed, I'm your guy. I listen well, especially to "no," and I can go into my crate like a champ. Just so you know, I'm not a fan of being alone for too long; I prefer the company of my humans. Car rides are a breeze for me; I can hop in and out all by myself without a fuss. Although I must confess, I do get a bit excited on the leash and tend to pull, but I'm eager to learn if you're willing to teach me. A home with a furry sibling would be a dream, as I love to play and be active. I sleep soundly in my crate as long as you're around, but I'm not too keen on solitude. A home where someone is usually around would be ideal for me, at least until I get the hang of things. I'm a very happy and loving boy who just wants to be close to you. When it's just us, I'll curl up next to you on the couch and drift off to dreamland. I'm doing fantastic with housebreaking, and I think I'd thrive with another pup to romp around with. I'm a loyal shadow to my humans, always following you around, especially if it means I get to be outside. When I get a tad overexcited, just hand me a toy, and I'll proudly carry it everywhere. I'm a foodie at heart and haven't met a meal I didn't like. I am located in Elizabeth City, NC but can be transported to other states for the right fitting family. So, if you're looking for a sweet, loving puppy who's eager to learn and even more eager to love, I'm your boy. Let's go on this adventure called life together, shall we?
