ADOPT A DOG, SAVE A LIFE
ADOPT A DOG FROM WESTERN NORTH CAROLINA.
We have taken in an unprecedented number of lost, stray and surrendered dogs following Hurricane Helene. And we are still reeling from the devastation. Many have lost their homes and their owners can no longer care for or house them. Some had owners that perished in the storm. Please consider adopting one of these sweet pets who have lost everything.
We require that all adopted dogs be kept up to date on vaccines, flea and tick and heartworm preventions. We will check vet and personal references to ensure that our dogs are going into secure and loving homes. Our adoption fee is $250 for puppies, $150 for adult dogs and $65 for seniors 6 and older, with an approved application.

sosa- 1 year old

Ginger- 4 months old
Meet Sosa. This gorgeous Lab mix is around 1 year old and is growing up to be a great dog. He's a big boy with lots of energy. He loves kids, he's great with with other dogs and could use a more mature dog to show him the ropes. Sosa plays hard so a canine companion that also loves to wrestle and play would be wonderful for him.
Sosa is crate trained and leash trained, he was house trained but will probably need a little reminding since he has been at the rescue for awhile.
We would not recommend that he be in a home with very small children because he doesn't know his size but he would love to mix it up with some pre teen or teen aged kids. He will be a loyal companion, protector and best friend for the right family or individual. He would love to live in an active household where his people will include him in activities.
Sosa will make a wonderful pet for a family or individual that loves big dogs!!

Axel approx 3 years old
Meet 3 year old Axel. He was tied to a tree for his whole life. His owner’s brother in law saved him and brought him to us.
All Axel knew was the 10 feet around a tree, that was his whole world.
Axel was shell shocked when he came to the rescue. But now he knows that he can trust humans again. He gets along with other dogs and is a very sweet boy. He's doing great in foster and learning how to just be a dog, not a prisoner. But, he needs a forever home.
Please someone gIve this boy a chance! Doesn't he deserve a loving home and some kindness? Help us change his life!!
Shelby 2 years old

Axel approx 3 years old
Meet Shelby. He's a 2 year old hound mix. Poor Shelby was found as a stray dog. We don't know how he came to be all alone on the streets, maybe he was put out by an owner or escaped a situation where he was tied out constantly? He can't tell us.
But he is a friendly dog! He loves people and other dogs. He's smart and willing to learn. He's working on being fully house trained- we suspect he's never lived in a loving home.
This guy deserves a better life. If you love hounds, please consider meeting our sweet boy Shelby. He will make a great family dog or a companion that will love riding around with you or just hanging out.

This gorgeous girl is Eliza. She is a mixed breed dog of a Livestock Guardian variety. 5 year old Eliza has been failed by humans her entire life. She was abused as a puppy and ended up at the county shelter, adopted by a family that let her roam the neighborhood unsupervised. After several years in their home, they dropped her back off at the shelter. Now she is exhibiting signs of separation anxiety, not surprising after what she's been through. She will need a special family to love her. Please don't let her live out her life at a rescue.
She is house trained, leash trained, VERY Smart, loves car rides and gets along with other dogs, especially male dogs. She has lots of energy and would do well in a family with a fenced yard and older kids or a single person or couple with a fenced yard that has an active lifestyle. She LOVES to be outside and likes to stay out there most of the time, so a fenced or secured area is a must for this girl. She tries to heard younger children on trikes. bikes, scooters, etc. So she would do best in a home with older kids, or kids that need to be herded. She likes to protect her people and her property. One of our volunteers took her home so she could have a break from the rescue and says: "she is is an amazing, smart and loveable dog." If you have land and love Livestock Guardian Dogs, Eliza could be your girl.

Meet Thomas. He's a very good boy! He's smart, he knows "sit" "come" and "down". He loves to play and loves walks. He's very sweet and as you can see, he's great with other dogs and likes kids.
He has exhibited some resource guarding behavior so please, no snatching food or toys from him. He needs a family that can respect boundaries and help him feel comfortable and safe while he works some things out. With a little patience and time, he will be your best boy and loyal companion forever! Thomas is only around 1 year old, maybe less. He's already been failed by humans.
He's a Boxer mix, around 50lbs or less. Thomas is a beautiful dog with a sweet face and trusting eyes. You can tell that he just wants to be loved!

Are you thinking about welcoming a family dog into your home?
Meet our wonderful Pit Bull mix Huey! He's such a good dog and has had a rough time thus far. He came to us exhausted, paw pads and nails worn down from wandering and trying to survive. Despite his tough beginning, he's a wonderful boy, he gets along with other dogs, loves people and would be great with kids. He LOVES to play ball and would do great with an active family, couple or single.
He's a lover! He is heartworm positive and is on heartworm treatments now and can continue in his new home. We will pay for his treatments until he's heartworm free.
