Story
Hi there, my name is Luna Mae! I ended up at the shelter through no fault of my own, and have become a staff favorite! I love to go on walks and am overall pretty calm. I seem to really enjoy other dogs (I use to live with a bunch!) and am very playful. Of course, slow and monitored introductions with new people or pets are always recommended. Visit this page for more information about properly introducing pets.INSIGHTS FROM MY ADVENTURE BUDDIES:`She’s such a sweetheart. So calm, leash trained, potty trained, great around other dogs/people/kids. Very gentle and cuddly. She loved our long trail walk. Took her for a sleepover and never heard her bark one time. She’s an angel and hope she finds the home she deserves.`

Story
Hi there, my name is Tigger! Although I am on the older side, I`m still young at heart and have so much love to give! I especially love treats and learning new things- I already know `sit` and `shake`! I have done very well around dogs of all sizes in a foster home but we always recommend slow and monitored introductions with new animals and people. You may have also noticed that I have several lumps over my body, but they do not seem to bother me at all. They were examined and one lump was aspirated, and they appear to be lipomas or benign fatty masses (which can be common in many dogs). However, I should still see a full-service veterinarian after I am adopted to check on them and establish a relationship that monitors my overall health. I am a wonderful, friendly dog and I will make you feel so lucky to have me!INSIGHTS FROM MY ADVENTURE BUDDIES:`Tigger is a professional cuddler! He loves to be wherever you are, to snuggle under blankets, and to give kisses. He is good on the leash, greeting everyone we saw with a friendly wagging tail. He pulled one time on our walks, but didn’t bark, when we saw a neighborhood cat that ran across the road. I think Tigger would make a great first time rescue pup for someone who has been thinking about rescuing but is unsure. He acclimated quickly to his new environment, and we saw plenty of personality from him on day one. He also comes when called and listens to `sit` and `shake` commands. An overall really intelligent, sweet, and playful guy. We had a great time!`I am currently available in my foster home.

Usagi

American Staffordshire Terrier American Bulldog

Female, 7 yrs 9 mos
Durham, NC
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Usagi is an extremely affectionate little hunk of love. A champion cuddlebug, she will happily sprawl out next to her humans, curl up in the curve of their legs, or smoosh in between them. Big spoon, little spoon -- Usagi adores it all! Usagi also provides boundless entertainment with her silly antics! She's a master back scratcher, wiggling around on the couch with goofy grunts of contentment. And belly rubs! Usagi will flop onto her back, with paws dangling, and extort all the belly rubs she can! She also occasionally gets the most adorable zoomies and will race in circles, grab a toy, and buck like a little bronco. Usagi's playfulness is incredibly endearing but her bullish affection and rambunctious play style would likely overwhelm small children. She would do best with human playmates ages 8+. When it comes to other pets, Usagi wants to be your one and only. Other doggies make her feel nervous (even from a distance), so she needs a family that will respect her boundaries and help her feel safe. Incredibly in tune with her people, she will thrive in a calm, steady home with a doting pet parent or family. Usagi is crate-trained, house-trained, and well-mannered on the leash. Although she would enjoy a fenced yard where she can lounge in the sunlight, she's perfectly content to take a quiet stroll around the block, or even toss her toy around indoors. Eager to please, Usagi is also a quick study with a vast repertoire of commands, including Sit, Down, Stay, Spin, Leave It, Come, and many more. Check out the videos of her showcasing her skills! Usagi really is the whole package. Once she connects with you, she'll do just about anything to make you smile. However, she often feels anxious in unfamiliar situations, and she needs reassurance to help her feel safe. With patience and encouragement, Usagi is steadily building her confidence. For example, she used to always be very scared of new humans, but now she'll happily greet neighbors when out and about! All it takes is a slow and gentle introduction. Usagi melts her foster parents with her sweet, affectionate gaze, the press of her meaty little paws, and the smooshing of her blocky head against their cheeks. She will bring boundless love, cuddles, and laughs to her forever home! HEALTH Usagi is spayed, microchipped, heartworm negative, and up-to-date on vaccinations. She takes daily anxiety and allergy pills, happily gobbling them up like treats! HISTORY Usagi spent some time at a local animal shelter after she was found as a stray. PHYSICAL Usagi is an adorable stocky mix -- mostly white, with large brown patches and some small, dark polka dots. She is short and muscular with adorable chunky paws. Usagi has stunningly gorgeous blue and gold eyes, a mottled pink and brown nose, and soft, floppy ears.

Story
Hi there! My name is Josephine. Thanks for checking out my bio! I'm roughly 4 years old, but a true lady never reveals her age. Other than that, I don't have many secrets, and I have so much to tell you! I currently live with 3 other dogs, and I love all of them. I've also met some dogs on my various outings, and I think all of them have been super cool. I love to chew on toys and am happy to chill and hang out wherever you are, so I'm an ideal work from home buddy. I love pets, and I'm not shy about letting you know when I'm ready for them. No playing hard to get here-I'm a girl who knows what she wants! However, I don't like to yell or talk loudly and would much rather whisper sweet stories in your ear. In the mornings or when something exciting happens, I'll talk (grunt/grumble) up a storm, but overall, I'm a pretty quiet gal. I like to sleep in my pen at night and for naps during the day. A woman needs her beauty sleep. So, see...I'm sort of perfect! Now that I've won you over with all of my charm, let's get real with each other. I was in pretty rough shape when my foster humans found me, and they've done so much to help me. But just like everyone, I'm still a work in progress. I'm heartworm positive but have already completed all of my treatment. So now I just have to wait a few months to get retested and get that negative test result back to be officially heartworm free. Not so bad, right?! I also came to them unable to use my back legs. I do have feeling in them; they just don't like to talk to my brain right now. Maybe that's why I like to chat so much-to make up for my silly legs! The good news is I can get around really well with my front legs. I can scoot on the floor all by myself, or if you're up for some teamwork, I can walk around while you hold my back legs up with a sling. I also have a really cool wheelchair. Using it is a lot of work and can be tiring, but I love using it for short distances or to walk around the yard like an independent woman! I'm going to physical therapy twice a week to help my legs talk to my brain and keep them nice and strong. It's a lot of work, but I'm making impressive progress. And I'll need my new humans to keep up my therapy so I can keep it up! I'm now able to stand on my own and even take a step or two! Let's find out together how far I can go! Finally, I know it's sometimes considered impolite to talk about bathroom stuff. But with a pup like me, it's best to be up front. I know to do my business outside, but because I'm paralyzed in my back end, I have some trouble in that department. Poops are pretty easy most of the time. I just need extra help getting in position and balancing. Going pee is a little more difficult for me. It's hard for me to get everything out, so I'll need my new humans to assist me and express my bladder. But don't worry, my foster humans can show you how! And I like to think of all of this as a unique bonding opportunity! I know some of this might seem a bit overwhelming, but I have no doubt the perfect family is out there for me! Plus, my foster humans are ready to help answer any and all questions, so let's talk more and see if we're a match!

Story
We first met Hank (aka Wrinkle Daddy) 5 years ago at our local shelter. We were told at the time that he was 2 years old, making him 7 now. We instantly fell in love with his sweet face and goofy personality and took him home that day. Hank looks forward to a daily walk but otherwise is the ultimate couch companion! This snuggly and affectionate guy loves to curl up with people and will even ask to get under a blanket with you if you’re inclined to let him. Hank has received professional training and responds to basic commands. He is very food motivated which makes additional treat training easier. We love this dog and think he would make a great solo pet for the right household!
