Story
Looking for a Loving Home for Our Dog Daryl due to new family dynamics and a move. He is a cuddly yet energetic 8 year old Cocker Spaniel mix who weighs about 40 lbs. He has a ton of fun chasing tennis balls and could probably do it all day! That and walks! However when he not running around, he's the perfect cuddle buddy! Last taken to his vet February. Has a fatty lump on his neckvet not concerned + a hernia from birth that never caused problems. He is up to date on vaccines. Born 2/20/2017. While he’s never been to dog daycare or dog parks, we think he would enjoy them, especially with the right introduction. He has never lived with other animals or been cage trained. He has stayed home in our house for at the most 8 hours and never had an accident or tore anything up. We are a family of 3 kids 5 and under he has always been kind with them + we have felt safe.

Story
My name is Charlie... My life began at Randolph county animal shelter. You see Tails of the Unwanted pulled me after being dumped there by my previous owner. I was scared of all things especially the human touch. My foster mom says I've come a long long way in a year. I'll need to have someone that's patient with me and will give me room. You must have another dog... I love them so much and I get confidence and comfort from them. I'm neutered and microchipped. I have all vaccines including my rabies vaccine. I have been heartworm tested and tested negative. I must have a fenced in yard. No electronic fence. I walk great on the leash. If you think I could be the one for you or if you're up for a challenge please apply at www.tailsoftheunwanted.org Love Charlie&#226&#157&#164&#239&#184&#143November 6, 2024, 9:04 am

Story
Meet Deacon, he is a lab mix with a great personality… uh, dog-anality.  He is house trained, crate trained and leash trained.  Deacon can be a jumper and loves to run in his yard, so a 5 ft fenced in yard is a must for this boy.  If you want to see pure joy, watch him when he is playing with toys or gets the zoomies. It goes to a whole new level if the toy has a squeaker, those are his absolute favorite.  He does not like taking a bath, having someone hold his feet, or getting his nails cut.  He's your typical guys guy - not metrosexual at all.  Who needs all that floofy stuff anyway? Deacon is going to do best if he is the only animal or in a home with a non bossy or non grouchy female dog that is spayed.   He is not a fan of all small dogs that are bossy, he likes female non bossy small dogs and some kids, he may chase cats, but he likes them and just wants to play. Deacon may be too high energy for larger dogs.  Deacon was bounced around a bit before he went to his foster home, due to that he can be slow to warm up, but once you are his person - he desires nothing more than to be by your side… and have squeaky toys.  Did I mention he loves squeaky toys? Deacon is still figuring out the world and will need someone who will be patient with him… he can't just be thrown into new situations and expect to thrive.  A good example, is those spooky moving doors at PetSmart.  He doesn't understand them and we'll be honest, they freak him out a little, he is getting better- but he's learning.  Deacon has recently completed 2 weeks of board and train.  Note: The training he received comes with lifetime training touch ups. Once he has settled in, the trainer will provide you with training sessions to help acclimate him to his new home , they also provide group training sessions most Saturdays at local parks.  Deacon weighs approximately 45 lbs and has been neutered and microchiped.  If you think Deacon would make a good addition to your family, fill out an application at lastdaydogs.comDecember 30, 2024, 8:54 pm

Story
Ladybug is an almost 3-year-old Labrador Retriever mix who weighs 40 pounds. She is fully vaccinated and ready for a home that can match her energy! Ladybug is a very active dog, that wouldn’t mind learning how to be someone’s running or hiking partner. If you prefer a stay-at-home dog, she loves a back yard with a tall fence, as she has learned to climb fences to go exploring! If you don’t have a fence, that is okay. She loves walks and is wonderful on a leash. Ladybug does have a prey drive, so no cats, farm animals or bunnies in her new home. Ladybug has been raised around children – but when playing could knock over younger children. If you are interested in adopting Ladybug, please submit an inquiry directly with Greater Charlotte SPCA by visiting charlottespca.org/adopt. ***Because our rescue is composed entirely of volunteers, local applications will take precedence.

Story
  Benny- 60 lb, 12  months old, black with white paws, lab/shepard mix    Handsome Benny may look full grown but he's still just a playful, energetic puppy! This boy loves to play and wrestle with other dogs, he requires a fenced in yard where the fence is at least 5 ft high so he can run and explore. He needs a doggie playmate.  He's agile enough to jump a fence should he want to, even though he has not tried at his foster home. He knows commands like come, sit and paw. Benny is a quiet, very friendly pup and great with people. He looks forward to cuddling up on the couch with his family. We think he would do very well in a two dog household as he does get lonely and bored when left alone. Exercise is a must for this boy so an active family would be great for him. He is fully potty trained.    PLEASE NOTE:  Our dogs are transported from Tennessee to meeting places in the states where we have posted.  Further information about us is given on our Adopt-A-Pet site.  The adoption fees vary and will be provided as well as noted on the application you receive.  Contact us at 615-661-5333 or ccrnewengland@gmail.comMarch 19, 2025, 9:16 pm
