Story
Hello my name is Bella! I am the sweetest petite 45 pound 4 year old lab/pittie mix. I am a snugglebug who loves belly rubs and couch cuddling. I live with my foster parents and two human brothers and Cody the cat. I love all people but when we are at home I especially like my foster mom.  I follow her around everywhere! I am fully house-trained! I do like to sleep in my crate during the day when everyone is gone and at night when it's bedtime. I love to go for walks in the woods and around the neighborhood and have been learning to walk with a gentle leader to help keep me focused. I can sometimes be reactive to other dogs. In my past, mainly dominant females gave me a hard time, so it would be best to do slow introductions. In my previous foster home,  I liked to help my foster mom with kittens and puppies. I love them!! I have been learning the commands stay, place, heal and watch and it would be great to continue learning those in my new home.  I am calm and quiet but I do get the zoomies and I do love a good play, so it would be great to have a fenced backyard. My foster mom wants you to know that she thinks that my forever family is going to be so blessed and lucky to have me. Oh and if you love adventures I absolutely love to ride in the car.   I can't wait to meet you! Love, Bella Applications can be filled out at www.piedmontanimalrescue.com/adopt!  Petfinder and Adopt-A-Pet does NOT send us Applications.

Story
This is BELLA! Bella is only 9 months old and she was taken to a vet for euthanasia because she had a rectal prolapse. The prolapse was due to hookworms and could have easily been avoided by administering a simple de-wormer. PAR stepped in and Bella has been treated for both the worms and the prolapse and is ready and excited to find her new family. Bella is a playful puppy and would like a playmate to help keep her busy. She is dog friendly and is good with older kids (not toddlers because of her 60lb size combined with puppy energy).  Applications can be filled out at www.piedmontanimalrescue.com/adopt!  Petfinder and Adopt-A-Pet does NOT send us Applications.   We receive many applications and many never respond after processing GREATLY delaying the pets forever home.  Please only apply if you are serious about adopting.  Please also make sure your pets are up to date on you species applicable Vaccines (rabies, Distemper/Parvo, FVRCP, Bordetella), spayed/neutered, and on Heartworm prevention if a canine.   The adoption fee includes their age appropriate vaccinations(DA2PP and Bordetella), Dewormer, spay/neuter, microchip, heartworm test as well as the registration of their microchip information to you.

Story
Meet Kuno! He came into the rescue underweight and with demodex mange but now he’s a confident, chunky, and goofy guy who’s loving life to the fullest and ready to find his forever home! Kuno is a sweet, playful boy with a bit of FOMO (fear of missing out)! He loves to play with stuffys, chew on bones, and his favorite toy is a horse ball that he’ll happily chase around the yard. When it’s time to relax, Kuno enjoys belly rubs, butt scratches, and curling up for snuggles. He has made excellent progress with potty training and rings the bell to let us know when he needs to go outside! He is doing great with crate training. Kuno gets along great with other dogs—he’s respectful, submissive, and enjoys the company of his furry friends. He’s just an all-around good boy who’s looking for a family to call his own. If you’re looking for a happy, affectionate, and playful pup to brighten your home, Kuno might just be the perfect fit!

Story
Name: Kai Breed: American Bully Mix Age: Around 4 years old Background: Kai was surrendered by his owner who could no longer provide for him. Personality: Kai is a muscular, beefy boy that likes to have fun. He is energetic and athletic. He loves going for walks and playing (and he is surprisingly very calm and easy to walk). He has adorable butt wiggles and will twirl in your arms when he's happy. He absolutely loves affection and will lean on you for pets and hangout with you on the couch. He can get excited when he initially sees you, but he is smart and food-motivated which makes training easier. He is already neutered, up to date on shots, and house trained. He knows "sit" and takes treats very gently. He is a big boy who sometimes can't control his excitement, so he'd likely do better in a home without small children. Ideal Home: He would likely not make a good apartment dog, as he loves to run and play. He appears dog-friendly and seems interested in cats, but doesn't lunge or display aggressive behavior towards them. Final Thoughts: Kai is a handsome, big guy with a sweet face and heartfelt eyes. He would do great with someone willing to exercise him. His tail is always wagging and he would love to have a companion! Note: Kai is heartworm positive and is completing a round of antibiotics. After this, he will take heart worm prevention each month which is something we highly recommend for all dogs, not just HW+ ones.

Story
Everyone knows pittie mixes take longer to find their forever home. Let’s not make that the case with Duncan! Duncan spent 6 weeks at our local Animal Control before his fosters picked him to take home. His personality is still emerging but so far we know he loves playing with his rope, chewing on a bone, & playing fetch in the yard. You should see his little hops! Duncan is such a great boy inside the house too. He will curl up in a ball and sleep while his fosters eat dinner or do everyday activities. He is also used to being crated 8-5 while his fosters are at work. He’s housebroken! Though he’s not currently fostered with other dogs, he is dog friendly and loves a good game of chase. He could use some work with leash manners so a yard is a plus. He’s neutered, microchipped, UTD on vaccines & prevention. Interested in meeting this big boy? Fill out an application on our website.

Story
Hazel was initially surrendered by her previous owners and came to us very skinny, but with lots of love and care, she is gaining weight and blossoming into the sweet, snuggly companion she was always meant to be. Hazel loves snuggling on the couch, playing with toys, going for walks, car rides, and even swimming in the lake! Sweet, loving, and a true “velcro dog” – she’ll want to stick by your side every chance she gets. Great with every dog she meets! (not been introduced to cats yet). Fully crate trained, no accidents in the crate. She’s doing great with her vet visits, and while she needs some basic obedience training, she’s eager to learn and full of love. She’s a bit shy at first, but once she warms up to new people, she’ll shower you with kisses and affection. She loves going out in public, especially to breweries, and is a perfect car companion. If you’re looking for a sweet, affectionate, and playful dog to bring into your home, Hazel might be the perfect match for you!

Story
Carly is a wonderful dog who is extremely smart and well tuned to her humans' emotions. She loves giving and receiving affection, and will often reach up and give you hugs. She is great with dogs her own size or larger, but I would not recommend her to be in the same household with cats or dogs under 30 lbs. She knows basic commands and is easily trained. She's great on a leash. Carly wants to be with her humans all the time, unless it's to play with her dog friends! She'd happily share her home with dogs her own size or larger, though I'm sure she'd have no problem being the center of attention as well! We are looking to rehome her because we are dealing with a huge loss in our household and she is very sensitive to our emotions. Carly deserves to be happy and stress-free, and we cannot give her that for the foreseeable future. She deserves to go to a home and family where she is safe, loved, happy and whole.

Meet this beautiful brindle baby named Topher! He is a shy boy who takes some time to get comfortable enough to play but he will slowly approach everyone for some good head scratches. Topher's confidence is still growing and each day we see more and more of his playful side! When he plays with other dogs he likes them to be gentle with a touch of running in the mix but this kid is truly a people dog! An ideal home for Topher would be with someone up for lots of cuddles and calm home life!

Meet our Boo baby who is full of life and energy, always looking for something to do or someone to hangout with! Boo is a new tripod and he handled it so well, it honestly didn't really phase him because he is still a super fast runner and as playful as ever. Boo has done well with dogs and loves to play but he needs to go with a dog who will be somewhat gentle with him so he doesn't fall too often. This kid could honestly go in any home with any amount of people! He Is ver social and adventurous. Boo is somewhat of a velcro dog and in the shelter has seemed to never want to be alone. In foster he has done amazing and has said to be a great house guest!
