Successes! | Freedom Bridge Animal Rescue NC

Forever Families!

Annie, formerly Jade, is officially adopted!!!

She's so happy and just loves her new Mama Erica. Annie was found as a stray and was very scared in the shelter. Based on her feet, she may have spent her very young months only in a crate. Now she is happy as can be! ♥️ Special thanks to Arianna Harmon for helping her be her best self!!

Happy tails sweet girl

Miss Pepper, now Chloe, found her forever home with her amazing adopter, Robbin. She was a terrified little girl at the shelter and her time was coming to an end. Of course, we had to save her. Now, they're both SOOOO very happy ♥️.

Chloe, a bit of an elder pup, LOVES playing ball and when she plays you would never know she's 7-8 years old. Her tail hasn't stopped wagging since we pulled her.

Special thanks to our foster Deborah, who said "yes" to helping us help Pepper. Fostering saves lives ♥️♥️♥️

Look who has found her forever home. That's right. Winnie stole the hearts of Al & Anne Davidson.

Winnie is one of four puppies who were given up by an owner who threatened to throw them in the river if no one got them. Look who got her! She landed the perfect home. Winnie will be the Queen of the castle and will be getting daily pampering she so deserves. We could be happier.❤️

Look what happened yesterday! Bella, now Miss Emmy, is so happy to announce that she found her forever home. She will learn what the beach life is all about. 1.5-year-old Emmy was pulled from a shelter with an injured /fractured back leg. Her fur-parents Lynn & Richard Rossi are over the moon in love with her! We at FBAR-NC couldn't be happier for Emmy and the Rossi's. Happy trails!

Super, now Boguee!🤎🥰 He's living the life with his fur-brother Brayden!

Thank you Justine and Sean for opening your hearts and home to this sweet boy!!

Thank you Amanda and Sawyer for helping him, plus Chris and Eline for temp fostering him when needed. The village came together to help this sweet little guy!

We could not be happier to announce that Yoda is HOME!! The village really came together for this sweet boy. Yoda was pulled from the Duplin County Shelter where he was on the euthanasia list.

Special thanks to Tiffany Wilson Jones and family for fostering him, for Jill McCann and Sal for helping sooo much, for Jeff helping him so much with his anxiety and being his best self! Thank you to everyone who shared, donated, and followed his journey!! Special thanks to his forever family who already love him to pieces!❤️❤️❤️

8-year-old Holly has made it to the big time!

She was rescued from a shelter with benign tumors on her belly that were successfully removed! Her long scar represents this sweet girl's survival.

Now Miss Holly has landed a forever home! with a new fur brother and sister and a Dad and Mom who will continue to spoil her as she deserves.

We couldn't be happier for her.

Thank you David and Kipp Register for adding Holly to your FBAR-NC pack. (All furbabies in this picture are FBAR-NC adoptees.)

Stelly just got adopted today!!! Special thanks to Eline, Chris and Ethan for helping this very scared girl find security! Thank you to Brianna for opening her home and heart to this sweet little gal. Thank you Bob for letting Stella be part of your pack and helping her gain confidence. We are soooo very happy for everyone.

Happy tails, little girl!

Vienna got adopted!!!

We are so grateful to the Haseltine family who opened their home and hearts to this very sweet girl.....even after she had some of their couch for a snack 🙄

Special thanks to Eline and Chris for helping this very scared girl on her journey. Because of all they did to help her and her sister, Stelly, Vienna found her forever home.❤️

Shelly & Vienna first day at foster home

Stelly with her sister Vienna relaxing in their foster home after being found as strays in Bladen County.

These precious sisters were brought to Animal Control and were scared to death in the shelter. They were shaking and curled up in a corner, too scared to come to the front of the kennel.

They did so well in their foster home, learning to trust and feel safe. And now... they both got adopted and found their forever homes!!! We are sooo happy for you all!!!

Look at sweet Cassidy in her new forever home!!! Punked on by her sisters in the shelter, she's now enjoying life living like a queen!!! We couldn't be happier for her!!!

Special thanks to Sandy and her family for helping her be her very best self, and to Marie and Scott for opening their hearts and home to this little girl.

Only the best from now on sweet Cassidy!!!

Look who got his forever home ON INDEPENDENCE DAY!!! Yes, it's Chance. He's our young Black Mouth Cur who was positive for heartworms! We were soooo surprised based on how young he was. Not only that, but he had a thrombus in his pulmonary vasculature! Geesh!!! Poor guy.

Thank you to Crystal Lee who took him under her wings to help him get started on his treatments. THEN, his Angel, David, met him and that's all she wrote. They fell in love with each other immediately! He took Chance through his VERY hard journey of HW treatments. Through it all, David was there by his side. These two are definitely BFFFS, no question. Happy lives to both of you.

We are so glad you found each other!!! ❤️

HHappy tails for another one of our puppies that was threatened to be thrown in the river if someone didn't come get them......Yes, it's Cindy Lu, now Winnie! This young lady hit it big with her family and look at that big smile!!!!

Special thanks to Kathleen for fostering her and helping her become her best self. And we couldn't be more grateful to the Brubaker family for opening their hearts and home to this sweet little girl!!!

River (formally Mr. Who) just got adopted!!!😊

From potentially being thrown in the river to finding the bestest place ever!! Thank you to Kathleen for fostering and thank you Gina, Bob & Brayden for letting River be part of your pack!

Enjoy your life River!!!

Thank you Silvia Kim with A Shelter Friend for taking the 6 puppies initially until we could find fosters! ❤️

Acacia Mae is adopted!!!

Scheduled to be euthanized for space, Kaitlyn & Dylan rose to the occasion and helped Miss Acacia see that she is loved. Then, Patrick and Tiffany saw her and couldn't resist adding her to their pack!!! She is soooo happy and so loved.

Thank you Banjo & Kona for being willing to accept her into the pack.

Happy tails to everyone!

Poochie is adopted! Yaaay!!!

This little 5-year-old was saved from euthanasia and is now living her best life!!! Special thanks to our original fosters, Sandy and Kim, for helping Poochie be her best self. And to her current fosters, now her forever home, for making her so very happy!

❤️

Jack (now Murphy) has been adopted by his fosters!!!! He is soooo happy & relaxed!

Thank you Gerard and Katherine for loving Murphy and to Rebecca for grooming him to get rid of all the mats he had so he could heal!!! And especially thanks to his new family for loving him so much!!!

Ryder is no longer lonely! He got adopted!!! — with loving parents and plenty of siblings! When we met Ryder, this sweet beagle mix was terrified of the world. He was found as a stray and was shaking in the shelter. Ryder was HW+ and likely on his own his first six years, never having been in a house before we rescued him. He went to his foster home and has never left!

We wish all of you the best life!!!

Little 4-month-old Mitchell, now Frank, has been adopted! His big brother wasn't sure he wanted a sibling, but Frank persisted, and they're now best friends!

Frank has two front bowed legs due to malnutrition. HOWEVER he is doing well now with supplements, high quality food, and lots of love. Frank is living a beach life! A big thank you to Salena and Kegan for helping him be his best self.

Happy days!!!

Look at this happy girl — Pebbles!!!

Her foster, Nikka, just couldn't let her go. Especially after all they have been through together. 5-month-old Pebbles came from a bad situation, but was a trooper through THREE surgeries. And her foster mom was right there beside her the whole time!! They have an unbreakable bond. We are SOOOO very grateful for Nikka for taking such great care of her and then opening her home and her heart ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

4-month-old Layla got adopted! Yay!!!! She has a loving, new family —complete with a fursibling!

So much love!

Congratulations to little 14-year-old Kit!

Her medical issues are resolved and she's found a forever home full of so much love!!!

Miss Lili has landed her forever home and now is the little sister of Bailey and Zoe. Thank you Patty & John for opening your home and hearts for Miss Lili. It was love at first sight for all parties involved ❤️ We couldn't be happier for you all!!!

Little Porkchop got adopted by his fosters!!!! So very grateful to Samantha and AJ for opening their hearts and home. Grateful to Porkchop's new fursibling, Brie, that she's willing to share her space with her new brother! ❤️

Happy life, little ones!!!

Look who got his forever home and is living the life!! Buster, now Jasper Lee, has hit it BIG!

Thank you Diane for helping him be his best self and Caroline and Steve for giving him a second chance at life. And based on what we saw today, oh, what a life it will be.

You deserve it, little man!

Baby went to the shelter after her person went into a nursing home. Even in the shelter, she was a happy girl. She's never met a stranger. After going through dental surgery, she was finally able to go to her forever home.

She could not be more loved!

Emmy before.

We are so happy for little Emmy who has her forever home! Special thanks to Fran and Rebecca Godley for fostering, then ADOPTING this sweet girl!

Look who got his forever home!!! Yes it's Percy and he is so very happy!!!

Percy and his buddy Posey were found together in a very bad home and taken to a shelter — where Percy was so scared that he walked around with his food dish in my mouth. Those days are over now, big guy! Welcome to your loving family! Thank you so much Arianna for helping him be his best self and thank you Bob and Claire for opening your hearts and home to this sweet boy!!!

Miss Posey not only got her forever home BUT is also the first of our pups to get adopted in 2024!!

She was found together with her buddy Percy in a very bad home and taken to a shelter before getting her freedom ride. Posey is doing very well while being treated for a hurt leg, possibly due to something hard being wrapped around it. No longer leading a difficult life, Posey has hit the jackpot with her new home and is feeling all the love!!!

Thank you Arianna and Holly for fostering, and thank you Haley, Chris, and Jack for opening your hearts and home!!!!

We couldn't be happier for Major!!!

Major was relinquished after being kept in a yard for the last 5 years of his life. He is blind but has learned to get along quite well. He is VERY social and loves to say hello to everyone. This boy is a VERY sweet guy.

Just look at him now! He hit the jackpot with his new forever family and knows what love is all about!

From Major's adopters: We're enjoying life more than we ever imagined with our happy, smiley boy and it makes me happy to see that he is, too. We took Major with us to my hometown for our family holiday. My family fell in love with him just as much as we have. He met my family dogs. It's almost like my sheltie knew he was blind the way he interacted with him. They were so adorable running around barking together lol It still amazes me how well he does without being able to see.

Little Hawaii, now Shelly, got her home for Christmas and no one was happier than she and her new family... except maybe us!

This nursing mama and her 6 newborn puppies came to us from the Bladen County Shelter.

Special thanks to Becca, Fran & Jackie for fostering them all — and to Amy and family for adopting her!!! She finally has a home of her own and is so very happy!!!

One of Hawaii's puppies, Molokai, is having the best holiday so far! He's found his forever home just in time for the holidays! We couldn't be happier for this little man. Thank you to Paul and Crystal for opening your home and hearts to this baby. Happy trails! And thank you Becca and Jackie for fostering this little guy 😊

Look who got his Christmas present early this year! One of Hawaii's puppies, Kaho‘olawe, also known as Kai, was an extra good boy and got his forever home a few days before Christmas. Merry Christmas, little man. Special thanks to Becca, Fran & Jackie for fostering him and his mama, too! Thank you Maria and Tyler for loving this little guy!!! Merry Christmas everyone🎄

Four more of Hawaii's puppies found their forever homes! 🏠💗

Layla, Pandi, Goldie, and Millie, originally named after the Hawaiian islands.

Thank you to their mamas for adopting! And to Becca, Fran & Jackie for fostering them all — and to their vets for assisting. Happy lives, little ones!!!

We are SOOO excited to share that Pixie Doodle found her home for Christmas!!! Although we love ALL of our pups, this little girl held a special place in our hearts. She was shot with BB bullets and was heartworm positive. She did not have a good start to life. But, despite this, her resiliency shows through every day in her happiness in being with her humans!!

If only we, as humans, could be so forgiving.....

Special thanks to Brooke for fostering her, then Kristyn for fostering and eventually adopting her. Pixie Doodle's first sunrise with her mama. The start of many more!!!

Look who found her forever home!!

Miss Wren, now Tuesday, with all of her fursiblings and family, couldn't be happier!!!

Special thanks to Amy and Nick (fosters) for helping her and to Lindsay, Cameron, and family for adopting her.❤️

Look who got his Christmas wish, his very own forever home!! That's right.... It's Chico!! ❤️❤️🙌🏻

We had pulled Chico from a local shelter, with a rough start to life — sadly, living outside and then owner surrendered. Despite all of this, Chico is VERY sweet and found just what he needed!!! Lots of reassurance and love.❤️

Special thanks to Ali for being willing to help, and to Robert for continuing to foster him. Thank you Crawford, Jennifer, and family for opening your hearts and home to this sweet boy!

You never have to be alone again!!!
