Story
Meet Gracie! Sadly Gracie was surrendered into our care after living the first part of her life tied to a porch. Gracie has now lived more of her life in the shelter than she did out of it. She has been in our care for over a year and is one of our longest residents. Once Gracie warms up to you she is a huge cuddle bug and loves to play in the water! Gracie does have to be the only animal but we are working hard on getting her properly introduced to be able to coexist with other animals around. Gracie has brought so much joy to our lives by being here but we know she deserves more than this. She does great at keeping her kennel clean and can never have enough toys. Gracie is an active dog who would do best with an outgoing person who understands what she has been through and is willing to continue the training she needs. If you are interested in Gracie and do not have any other animals she is available for a foster to adoption situation.

Story
Meet Courage! Courage came into our care as a stray that was found abandoned with a bag of dog food and a harness here in Manteo. We are so glad to have Courage with us now and we can't imagine what he has been through. Courage has such a fun and loving personality and truly is just waiting to find his person. He loves the water, car rides, and always has to have a toy in his mouth to show off. He does well with other female dogs but can not go home with small dogs or cats. Courage knows basic commands and walks great on the leash! If you are interested in Courage and have a dog already we would love to do a meet and greet if you are looking for a companion to travel with you or just enjoy the beach Courage would be perfect!

Story
Meet Nala! This pretty girl was surrendered into our care because her previous family was moving and could not take her with them. Nala is nervous in this environment with new people but with time she is so playful and loving! We have been introducing her to new dogs and she has done great! Nala does qualify for a foster to adopt because she does take more time to warm up. We think outside of this environment she would do even better! If you have another dog and are interested in Nala please call the shelter to schedule a meet and greet!

Meet Chester! This sweet boy was brought into our care with the help of Animal Control. His previous owner had to go into the hospital and sadly she had no family that could care for him. Chester is currently in a temporary foster home because the shelter was too stressful for him. He has lost 30 pounds and is feeling so much better! He currently lives with another dog and does great with children. If you are interested in adopting Chester please call the shelter to schedule a meet and greet with his current foster family!

Meet Allie! This sweet girl was brought into our care as an abandoned stray. Allie is still overcoming some fears from her past like loud noises but would adjust well in a calmer environment. Allie enjoys riding in the car, walks well on the leash, and gets along with both dogs and cats. If you are interested in adopting Allie and have another dog please call the shelter to schedule a meet and greet.
