Story
Name: Willa Breed: Catahoula Leopard Dog mix Age: 4 years old Background: Willa was surrendered from an unfortunate situation. She was adopted and returned 2 weeks later. She was then adopted by another family and returned 2 days later. She is now approaching her first year in the shelter. This has worn her down and she has started to become depressed in the shelter. Willa is loyal and protective. She appreciates her space and bonds strongly with her person, developing a need to protect her person and the area. Because of this, we believe she would do well in a home with a single individual or experienced dog owners that can crate train her and work with her protectiveness. Personality: Willa is a stunning and affectionate girl with a heart of gold. She's smart and eager to please, already learning commands like "heel," "lay down," and leash training during her short adoption. Willa has good manners, taking treats gently and refraining from jumping on people. She's described as a cuddle bug and enjoys reciprocating affection with gentle "petting" using her paw. Her tail wags enthusiastically, and she'll even do a playful bow to show her excitement. She is a perfect balance of low and medium energy - she is content to lounge and play with toys by herself, but she also enjoys the occasional hike or adventure. Ideal Home: Willa is seeking a confident, gentle, and experienced owner who understands her needs. Although she's incredibly sweet and smart, she gets protective of the person she bonds with and their space. She sometimes views outsiders as threatening. She needs proper decompression time in a new home, as she's been in the shelter so long. She would be the perfect dog for a single owner, as she is loyal and would make sure her person is safe. She would do well with a male dog or as an only dog and meet and greets are recommended. Final Thoughts: Willa is a wonderful companion waiting for the perfect match. If you're looking for a loyal, affectionate, and intelligent canine companion, come meet Willa at the shelter during opening hours. She's sure to steal your heart with her charm and loving nature.

Honey

German Shepherd Dog

Female, Adult
Cornelius, NC
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Name: Honey Breed: German Shepherd Age: 4 and 1/2 years old Background: Honey was found running around Blythe Landing and was finally caught after nearly 2 weeks of effort. She was adopted shortly after but returned because she did not get along with their cat. Personality: When she first got here, she was timid, scared, and anxious. She is now much more confident and comfortable. Her tail wags when people enter her room and she gets excited when she sees the leash! She is sweet and takes treats gently. She appears house trained and knows "sit". She is calm in her kennel, preferring to nap on a soft bed. It doesn't appear that she knows how to play, but hopefully that will change soon. She has not yet been dog tested, but reacts strongly when dogs bark at her. She is also not cat friendly. We always recommend a meet and greet if you have another dog at home. Ideal Home: She may appreciate a quiet, calm home while she decompresses. It may take some time for her to really act like a dog as she comes out of her shell. She would enjoy a lot of space and activity and would not benefit from apartment living. Final Thoughts: Honey is very smart and well-behaved. She is sweet and enjoys being around people, and she would certainly love someone to keep her active!
