Story
Usagi is an extremely affectionate little hunk of love. A champion cuddlebug, she will happily sprawl out next to her humans, curl up in the curve of their legs, or smoosh in between them. Big spoon, little spoon -- Usagi adores it all! Usagi also provides boundless entertainment with her silly antics! She's a master back scratcher, wiggling around on the couch with goofy grunts of contentment. And belly rubs! Usagi will flop onto her back, with paws dangling, and extort all the belly rubs she can! She also occasionally gets the most adorable zoomies and will race in circles, grab a toy, and buck like a little bronco. Usagi's playfulness is incredibly endearing but her bullish affection and rambunctious play style would likely overwhelm small children. She would do best with human playmates ages 8+. When it comes to other pets, Usagi wants to be your one and only. Other doggies make her feel nervous (even from a distance), so she needs a family that will respect her boundaries and help her feel safe. Incredibly in tune with her people, she will thrive in a calm, steady home with a doting pet parent or family. Usagi is crate-trained, house-trained, and well-mannered on the leash. Although she would enjoy a fenced yard where she can lounge in the sunlight, she's perfectly content to take a quiet stroll around the block, or even toss her toy around indoors. Eager to please, Usagi is also a quick study with a vast repertoire of commands, including Sit, Down, Stay, Spin, Leave It, Come, and many more. Check out the videos of her showcasing her skills! Usagi really is the whole package. Once she connects with you, she'll do just about anything to make you smile. However, she often feels anxious in unfamiliar situations, and she needs reassurance to help her feel safe. With patience and encouragement, Usagi is steadily building her confidence. For example, she used to always be very scared of new humans, but now she'll happily greet neighbors when out and about! All it takes is a slow and gentle introduction. Usagi melts her foster parents with her sweet, affectionate gaze, the press of her meaty little paws, and the smooshing of her blocky head against their cheeks. She will bring boundless love, cuddles, and laughs to her forever home! HEALTH Usagi is spayed, microchipped, heartworm negative, and up-to-date on vaccinations. She takes daily anxiety and allergy pills, happily gobbling them up like treats! HISTORY Usagi spent some time at a local animal shelter after she was found as a stray. PHYSICAL Usagi is an adorable stocky mix -- mostly white, with large brown patches and some small, dark polka dots. She is short and muscular with adorable chunky paws. Usagi has stunningly gorgeous blue and gold eyes, a mottled pink and brown nose, and soft, floppy ears.

Story
Hi there! My name is Josephine. Thanks for checking out my bio! I'm roughly 4 years old, but a true lady never reveals her age. Other than that, I don't have many secrets, and I have so much to tell you! I currently live with 3 other dogs, and I love all of them. I've also met some dogs on my various outings, and I think all of them have been super cool. I love to chew on toys and am happy to chill and hang out wherever you are, so I'm an ideal work from home buddy. I love pets, and I'm not shy about letting you know when I'm ready for them. No playing hard to get here-I'm a girl who knows what she wants! However, I don't like to yell or talk loudly and would much rather whisper sweet stories in your ear. In the mornings or when something exciting happens, I'll talk (grunt/grumble) up a storm, but overall, I'm a pretty quiet gal. I like to sleep in my pen at night and for naps during the day. A woman needs her beauty sleep. So, see...I'm sort of perfect! Now that I've won you over with all of my charm, let's get real with each other. I was in pretty rough shape when my foster humans found me, and they've done so much to help me. But just like everyone, I'm still a work in progress. I'm heartworm positive but have already completed all of my treatment. So now I just have to wait a few months to get retested and get that negative test result back to be officially heartworm free. Not so bad, right?! I also came to them unable to use my back legs. I do have feeling in them; they just don't like to talk to my brain right now. Maybe that's why I like to chat so much-to make up for my silly legs! The good news is I can get around really well with my front legs. I can scoot on the floor all by myself, or if you're up for some teamwork, I can walk around while you hold my back legs up with a sling. I also have a really cool wheelchair. Using it is a lot of work and can be tiring, but I love using it for short distances or to walk around the yard like an independent woman! I'm going to physical therapy twice a week to help my legs talk to my brain and keep them nice and strong. It's a lot of work, but I'm making impressive progress. And I'll need my new humans to keep up my therapy so I can keep it up! I'm now able to stand on my own and even take a step or two! Let's find out together how far I can go! Finally, I know it's sometimes considered impolite to talk about bathroom stuff. But with a pup like me, it's best to be up front. I know to do my business outside, but because I'm paralyzed in my back end, I have some trouble in that department. Poops are pretty easy most of the time. I just need extra help getting in position and balancing. Going pee is a little more difficult for me. It's hard for me to get everything out, so I'll need my new humans to assist me and express my bladder. But don't worry, my foster humans can show you how! And I like to think of all of this as a unique bonding opportunity! I know some of this might seem a bit overwhelming, but I have no doubt the perfect family is out there for me! Plus, my foster humans are ready to help answer any and all questions, so let's talk more and see if we're a match!

Story
Hi! My name is Isabella, but you can call me Belly. I came to my foster mom with a big bald spot on my back because someone splashed something on me that burned off all my hair. Great news, though-I already have new hair growing in! I'm a 10-month-old pit bull/terrier mix, and I weigh about 30 pounds. I love to spend my days playing with my toys and soaking up the sun. I enjoy snuggling, but I'm also quite happy playing by myself. I can be a little scared to try new things, but with a bit of praise (and maybe a treat or two), you can help me build the confidence to go on any adventure! I haven't met any cats yet, but I love every dog I meet! I haven't met any kids either, and I'm still learning not to jump when I play, so I might be a bit overwhelming for really young children. I can get a little shy when meeting new people, but just give me some time, and we will quickly become best friends!

Story
I am about a 2 years old and fully grown at a petite 45lbs. I was a mama, but that is history and I am enjoying being part of the day to day living of a human family. I will be your family's best friend, actually I am literally anyone's best friend. I could be your running buddy, your couch buddy, your travel buddy, your kid's buddy and another dog's buddy. I like my runaround, but have also found sleeping in on a Sunday morning and basking on the deck in the sun is very enjoyable. With my short hair with no undercoat, I have a low shed rating, but I may need to be accessorized with a cute coat on winter walks. In short, I am a good natured, go-with-the-flow dog, who is playful and loves a good snuggle. I am well-behaved, potty outside, rides well in a car, sleeps in a crate at night but can be left alone in the house outside of the crate with no issue. I know "sit and "wait and I am food motivated so I will learn all the commands quickly. I greet everyone with love and happiness. I am excited to meet other dogs and love to play. I enjoy running around the back yard with toys and balls. I love a good run and going on leash walks. I have been introduced to a cat and although I am curious, I don't want to harm them. In the evening, I'll hang out on my bed, but love a snuggle on the couch.. I am up-to-date on my vaccines, heartworm negative and spayed.

Story
My adoption fee has been fully sponsored. Adopt me and pay $0.00!!!Hi there, my name is Melon! I am a medium sized, energetic and playful fella. I love to run, play with tennis balls, and learn new things. I am working on sit, down and spin. I am an active pup so I hope my new family can take me on plenty of adventures because I love to go new places and meet new people :) Please ask staff if you have any questions about me.INSIGHTS FROM MY DOG DAY OUT ADVENTURE BUDDIES:`I had a great hike with Melon in the Carolina north forest. He rides well in the car and doesn’t pull on the leash. He knows the sit command and giving paw. We met some other dogs on the trail and he was very friendly.``Melon is such a sweet and gentle dog. We took him for a hike at Carolina North Forest and he had the best manners. He was calm in the car, didn`t jump on anyone, didn`t bark, and didn`t pull on the leash at all - he would slow down any time he felt tension on the leash. He was not reactive to other walkers, runners, or bikers, and even ignored a dog we passed that barked at him aggressively. At the beginning of the hike he wanted to sniff quite a bit at the side of the trail, but then he started to enjoy walking/trotting ahead of us with just occasional sniff stops. When we first met him he was a little subdued, but the longer we hiked the happier he got, and after the hike when we got to the coffee shop for a pup cup, he was wagging his tail nonstop. He wanted to meet the other people there and was very happy when someone stopped to pet him. He seems to really like people. He is a very easy dog to be around and was a lot of fun to spend time with.`
