Story
Hi! My name is Ludovich. (Luda for short.) If you are looking for an ideal companion, then look no further cause here I am! I am already housebroken, crate trained, know sit, shake, and even know I am not supposed to jump on you or your furniture without your permission! I enjoy snuggling with you if you will let me, and like a good romp in a fenced-in backyard. My favorite thing is being outside and I can be a tadstubborn when it's time to come in. My foster mom thinks I might have accidentally escaped from my people since I was caught chasing a deer. Since my prior owner could not be found, I find myself in need of a new home. My only requirement is a home with no small animals, (cats, rabbits, small dogs, chickens, etc.,) because though I am well trained and super laid back, I do have a high prey drive. If you are looking for a new friend who will not require much training, just a bit of time to understand your expectations, I would love to meet you! And hey, I am even neutered so I can go home with you right away! If you are interested in meeting me too, please contact the shelter so they can get you in touch with my foster mom. She would love to set up a meet and greet so she can show off my good manners and just how much of a gentleman I am. I hope to meet you soon! Primary Color: Tan Weight: 64 Age: 4yrs 1mths 0wks

Story
Cookie is a really timid and shy dog who’s and 11 months old. I got her last year in July 1st and been keeping her ever since. My cousin was going to adopt her so he asked me to watch Cookie for him since he was in the military and his wife was busy working. It was until December or January that he decided he didn’t want Cookie anymore and wanted to adopt a pit bull instead. He didn’t tell us and I’ve just been watching Cookie. Cookie is protective and can sense if your energy is bad or good. She is sassy and will side eye you from time to time. Once she gets used to you, she will adore you. She loves eating my food, she snatched my food out of my hand many times before. I’m looking for an owner who will love her the same way I love her. Who will take care of her and treat her well. Someone who’s experienced with raising dogs that are a bit tougher to raise than most dogs. I’m in a desperate situation and struggling right now, I just want Cookie to live well.

Story
TAFFY is a 4 YO, 65 LB Akita While we don't know what past difficulties happened to Taffy, they clearly haven’t changed her happy and loving nature. As playful as she is beautiful, Taffy shows the profound loyalty Akita's have for their "person" and home. With a big, open smile that breaks out the moment she sees you, this pedigree girl is true to her breed: she is very affectionate, thrives on human companionship and is dedicated to protecting her "pack”.  Due to the nature of her breed, she needs a male counterpart. Akitas tend to do well with opposite sex dogs, but do not do well with same sex dogs. NO CATS! She's a beautiful white Akita! She's a genius, a sweetheart, and just an all-around great pup! She sheds once a year, but it's like a magical, once-in-a-lifetime event. She's a bit on the shy side but will shower you with kisses once she claims you as her person! Plus, she's potty trained, leash trained, and a great listener (with just a touch of sass)! She loves playing with big male dogs, but alas, no girl dogs for this lady due to her breed. A fenced-in backyard would be her dream come true. She's a pro in the car and at the vet's office! If you think Taffy might be the one for you, apply at www.crisisdogsnc.org. We see nothing but bright days ahead for her!  She needs someone who has both the time and resources to teach her all the things she needs to be her best self!  She is very smart, so she will catch on fast!  She is extremely sweet and doesn't have a mean bone in her body, in fact, she does so well at the vet's office, they brag about how sweet & beautiful she is!   If you'd like to give this first-class girl her second chance, forever home, she will require moderate exercise and plenty of time to play!  She needs a fenced backyard as she loves to run and play ball with her foster fur-siblings!   If you would like to be considered for Taffy, please fill out an adoption application online at www.crisisdogsnc.org. Comprehensive details are provided in the dog's description. to ensure a smooth process, please submit a completed application through our website at: http://crisisdogsnc.org/dog-adoption/. Please note that questions via email or social media channels may not receive a response without a completed application. As part of our commitment to responsible adoption practices, we require excellent veterinarian references and conduct virtual home visits. Additionally, your prior or current dog must be on year-round heartworm prevention. We provide transportation by both land and air whenever feasible. All assessments regarding breed and age are conducted by licensed veterinarians. We look forward to assisting you in finding your perfect canine companion!  August 19, 2024, 11:27 am

Story
Otra is a gentle giant. Dog-friendly with dogs of all sizes. People-friendly, but may be too much for little kids. Super handsome, Otra, is an Akita mix and is the goofiest most well natured boy you’ll meet! He weighs around 95 pounds and is such a gorgeous fluffy boy.    Otra is great on leash, is crate trained, and is house trained. Otra lovessss other dogs, sometimes too much for their liking. He loves chasing his doggy friends' tails, which can sometimes annoy them. When he gets corrected, he gets so sad. He is essentially a 90lbs puppy. His ideal home would be one where he has a doggy friend to play with and preferably a fenced in yard.    Otra is a very loving boy. He is very playful and is mouthy during his playtime. He will give you his paw to trick you into putting your hand within reach so he can chew on it. It is adorable and not malicious in any way, but his future family must know about this and be okay with it!    Otra has a degenerative eye condition and will continue to lose his vision over time. Right now his vision is pretty good, but sudden movements do spook him, and he can be a little bit head shy. Due to his vision loss and mouthiness, Otra is looking for a home without small children.       (DOB 8/29/2019) As part of Otra’s $300 adoption fee, he will be neutered, microchipped, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, and current on his monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives.  If you have questions about this sweet boy, you can email  Dogteam@pawsforlifenc.org.  If you wish to adopt Otra, you can fill in an online application by going to our website and clicking the" Adopt"  button on his profile at:  www.pawsforlifenc.org. ##1860067##

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Online Adoption Application › Kino is not your boxed wine kinda guy. Anyone can be shopping for taco ingredients, bread, orange juice, and coffee when they happen to stumble into the beer and wine aisle of the grocery store, and think "hey, this looks like a good deal." It takes someone with an understanding of wine to choose just the right bottle for the occasion. Kino, much like a good vino, is a dog that needs to be appreciated by someone who understands the many layers and complexities of the Husky breed. They are generally very friendly. They love to hold conversations and discuss important topics like "who's a good boy?" and "are you a good boy?" They are extremely smart which leads them to do extremely stupid things. "Hold my chew toy and watch this." They are very assertive dogs who will NOT be ignored... even when they're pretending you can't see them doing something naughty. They need exercise, physical and mental. A daily walk and something that exercises their mind is key to keeping them from being bored. If you're up for owning a dog who needs a constant reminder that they don't own you, Kino just might be your guy. Kino is good with other dogs who aren't dominant or ill tempered. He gets too excited around kids and lots of commotion and would do best in a mature, adult only home with someone who can maintain his training. Kino received training from Jeff Coltenback and comes with lifetime support from him. Kino (in typical Husky fashion) likes to explore the world and make demands with his mouth. His training focused on teaching him what's appropriate and what isn't. Keeping up with this is important to keep him out of trouble. Kino's absolute favorite thing is being petted. He will insist you keep going when you stop, and resort to lots of licking and kissing until you start petting him again. His second favorite thing is treats. Kino is appx 7-9 years old. He's crate trained, house trained once he gets used to a schedule, neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and microchipped. For more info on Kino or to learn how to adopt, please contact Pawfect Match Rescue and Rehabilitation.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.August 19, 2024, 8:01 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Online Adoption Application › Meet sweet Tatum, she came from Lenoir County where she was extremely neglected and abused.  When she was found she was suffering from heat stroke. She will need a family with husky experience,  time and patience to help her become the dog she deserves to be.  Tatum has the added benefit of several weeks of training by Jeff Coltenback and he says shes a sweet girl! Here's what Jeff has to say about her: Tatum has a good obedience foundation. She currently is not in training so she's a little rusty. She is crate trained and appears to be housetrained. She ignores his chickens but she has not been tested with cats. She is dog friendly but prefers male dogs. She has 'a joyful energy' that will brighten your day. She is very sweet and affectionate and loves hikes and walks. She LOVES to chew toys and is relatively quiet for a husky (not silent though)! She is good for her ear cleanings and her grooming.  Please consider giving this girl a forever home! She is sure to brighten your day!

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Online Adoption Application › Hi, I'm Aria! I was living the good life with my sister Tia when I suddenly found myself preparing for more mouths to feed. Foraging just wasn't my thing! When I arrived, I was very skittish, and still am at times, but I've learned to trust my foster mom most of the time. She helped me bring my 9 beautiful babies into the world on June 20, 2023. Now that they've all been adopted, it's time for me to find my furever home. I was underweight when I was picked up, and raising 9 puppies was exhausting. Now, I’ve reached a healthy weight and am feeling great! I love playing with my doggie friends and need a home with other easygoing dogs. My perfect family would be patient with me while I settle in. I'm highly food motivated and take medication easily as long as it's hidden in food. That’s the best time to win me over! I love my crate because it makes me feel safe. As long as I go outside regularly, I won't have any accidents inside. I need a tall, fenced yard with a secure border because, well, I'm a husky after all! My coat is starting to grow back in fuller now, and I can't wait to show it off in my new home.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.August 19, 2024, 8:01 pm
