Story
Meet Poppy AKA Prada, if you can't tell from her pictures just how sweet Poppy is, here is what her (curmudgeonly, typically disinterested) foster dad had to say about her: Oh my gosh, she's probably the sweetest dog I've ever met!Yes, Poppy is able to win over even the hardest of hearts! This sweet girl is currently being fostered with two other dogs, three cats, and a horse. She has done well with every four-legged friend she's met and settled into her foster household very well. Poppy is wonderfully crate-trained and will go right into her crate without making a peep all night. She is also housebroken.Poppy has a higher energy level and would LOVE a home with another young, playful dog who enjoys wrestling and chasing. She could also do well in an active home as a running buddy, or a home with space for her to run and explore. And hey, if you've got a horse farm, that would be fine too!Poppy really is the sweetest dog ever, as her foster dad claims. She loves people and just wants to be as close to in your lap as her gangly, 60lb body will allow. Whether you're looking for a playmate for your current dog, a running buddy, or a snuggle buddy - Poppy is your girl!For more information please contact us at: 1 (410) 820-1600 info@carolinehumane.orgadoptions@carolinehumane.org.

Story
Meet Esmerelda!Esmerelda story is a sad one. She came to the shelter as a stray in June. Sadly, this isn't the first time she has been at at shelter. Her microchip showed were she had been adopted from a shelter in Delaware. CCHS's many attempts to locate the adopters listed on the microchip have been futile. It seems as poor Esmerelda wasn't wanted anymore and was left to fend for herself in the world.Now we are trying to find her a new home! This petite girl is as sweet as they come! She loves to walk and is a great jogging companion. She would prefer to be your one and only pup in the house but seems fine with children and cats..

Hazel is a one-year-old pup who’s ready to find her home. She’s been living in a temporary foster home and now she’s hoping to find a place where she can continue to grow and thrive.Hazel is a calm and well-behaved house dog who knows basic commands like “sit” and “down,” and she’s working hard on her leash walking skills. While she can get a little playful and energetic during playtime, she’s also a huge cuddle bug and loves to snuggle up close when it’s time to relax. She’s crate trained, and while she’s a bit shy with new people, Hazel is warm and affectionate once she gets to know you. Hazel would do best in a home without cats or small dogs.
