TIGGER

Tigger

AGE: Approximately 1.5 - 2 years old


BREED: Shepherd Mix


SEX: M


BACKGROUND: Tigger was pulled from the shelter. 

This is what Tigger's foster Mama has to say about him!

"Whoever adopts Tigger is going to have one AMAZING dog."

NEEDS: Tigger is super sweet! He is a big goof ball (65lbs). Tigger is very attentive to his humans. He's learning his manners and tries very hard to please. He's just an all around fun pup! He is VERY smart, even though he is goofy. He knows sit, down, sit pretty, off, and wait. He does have some energy so an active family would be best. He is great with other pups. We have not seen him directly around cats so don't know for certain, but believe he would just want to play with them if anything.


HEALTH ISSUES: ​He is HW-, neutered, up-to-date on vaccines, and microchipped. Ready to find his forever family!

ANNIE aka  JADE

AGE: Approximately 4 months old


BREED: Hound Mix


SEX: F


BACKGROUND: 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 :(  She is getting less scared with her foster, who is also working on her house training. Jade is very playful outside of the crate but, understandably, inside it, is very timid. She turns into a whole different, fun loving, playful puppy when out of the crate!

NEEDS: Annie is a very sweet puppy! She needs a forever home that will teach her what love is.


HEALTH ISSUES: To be vetted.

YODA

AGE: Approximately 2 years old


BREED: Staffordshire Terrier Mix


SEX: M


BACKGROUND: Yoda was pulled from the Duplin County Shelter. He was on the euthanasia list.

NEEDS:  He is a good boy who needs a patient owner and more training. He is slowly learning how to be on a leash, as he can be reactive. Yoda does well with the foster's pup and is great with kids. He does need a slow introduction to new pups. Yoda would do best with a female pup or as an only. A fenced yard is needed so he can play and do his zoomies!


HEALTH ISSUES: Yoda is HW-, altered, and up-to-date on vaccines.

Peter now Porter

Look who got his forever home!!! It's Porter (formally Peter), and he couldn't be happier. He started life by being threatened to be thrown in the river by his owner. One of 6 puppies rescued. Talk about going from rags to riches! Thank you to everyone who helped this little guy along the way ❤️. Special thanks to Alisha and Peter for opening your hearts and home and to his new fursibling Zoe for letting Porter be part of her pack! ❤️❤️

Shelly & Vienna in the shelter

Stelly and Vienna, shaking and curled up in a corner at the shelter.

VIENNA & STELLY

AGE: Less than 1 year old


BREED: Mix (small)


SEX: F


BACKGROUND: These precious girls were found as strays in Bladen County. They were brought to Animal Control and were scared to death in the shelter. We felt so badly for these babies that we had to pull them. Shaking and curled up in a corner.

Stelly is VERY shy and still learning to trust but very sweet. She and her sister hid towards the back of the shelter, too scared to come to the front of the kennel. They are both doing well at their foster's home but Stelly is still very nervous with new people and noises. She does well with other pups and does enjoy playing once she trusts.

NEEDS: Lots of love, training, and a forever home!


HEALTH ISSUES: Both littles will be vetted.

CASSIDY

AGE: Approximately 4 months old


BREED: Mix 


SEX: F


BACKGROUND: Cassidy was one of 3 puppies from a litter that were taken to a shelter. Her sisters were punking on her, so she had to be pulled for her safety. This was consistent behavior.

NEEDS: Lots of love, training, and a forever home!


HEALTH ISSUES: Cassidy will be vetted.

Acasia
Acasia

ACASIA

AGE: Approximately 3 years old


BREED: Staffordshire Terrier Mix


SEX: F


BACKGROUND: Acasia was scheduled to be euthanized for space on the day we pulled her from the shelter. Special thanks to Kaitlyn & Dylan for being willing to foster her AND thereby saved her life!

NEEDS: She is such a sweet girl and can't stop smiling and wiggling her butt! Acasia loves other pups and is currently with her fosters' pup, who is a little guy. She is also little, at 40 lbs. She sometimes needs to be reminded not to be so rambunctious with little pups, and does respond very well to re-direction. At the shelter, she did well with any pup she met. We don't know about cats. We do know that Acasia is just full of love!


HEALTH ISSUES: She is up-to-date on vaccines, vetted, and microchipped. She still needs to be spayed. However, she is HW- (yay!) and has been doing really well at her fosters' home.

Chance

CHANCE

AGE: Approximately 1-2 years old


BREED: Black Mouth Cur Mix


SEX: M


BACKGROUND: Chance was in the shelter and on the adoption floor — but, because he was so scared, everyone passed right over him. It didn't take him long to come out of his shell and he's one happy pup now!!  

NEEDS: The little guy still acts a lot like a puppy. Chance loves other dogs and would do best with a furry sister he can play with in a fenced in backyard to release some of his energy. He also loves being with his human(s).


HEALTH ISSUES: Chance is HW+ and has started treatment. We cover all expenses for heart worm treatment. This sweet boy is available for foster-to-adopt. Neutered, up-to-date on vaccines, and microchipped.

SEX: F


BACKGROUND: Wilma was rescued from the shelter and is a sweet little girl. 

NEEDS: She is ready for a foster-to-adopt home. Wilma is super sweet and certainly wants to be the Belle of the Ball LOL!! She would do great with an energetic older brother who could teach her the ropes. She sleeps through the night already and her foster is working on housebreaking her.
