Story
Luke is an energetic dog with a heart of gold! He will instantly charm you with his beautiful, expressive eyes.Luke's favorite toys are bones and tennis balls. He will nudge you to ask you to toss his ball for him. Luke can be a bit rough when he plays so he'd do best in a family with older kids (think teens and up). This handsome boy is very athletic but don't let his strength fool you; Luke is as sweet as can be.Despite his playful and spirited side, Luke is also a softie. He gives the sweetest, gentlest kisses and enjoys cuddling with those he trusts. He's very smart and already knows commands like "sit," "paw," and "down," so he's ready to learn even more with his future family! One thing to keep in mind is that Luke is food-focused, so some supervision is key when meals are around.Luke's tail curls in the cutest way, and this sweet, active guy is looking for an equally active family to share his energy and love with. If you're looking for a dog who will keep you on your toes and shower you with affection, Luke might be your perfect match!Luke is located at a foster home and not at the Animal Center. To get in touch with the foster family to meet Luke, email animalcenter@wake.gov with the subject line of "Luke 255475" Primary Color: Tan Secondary Color: White Weight: 56 Age: 1yrs 10mths 0wks

Story
Greetings! My name is Graham and I am one fine fellow. I am a love bug and I was considered a rockstar in my playgroup while at the Animal Center. Although I've never been tested with cats, my mom doesn't think I would do well with them, but, I currently have three 'sisters' at my foster home and I love and play well with each of them. I've not been tested yet with other males, but my foster mom is optimistic that I will do well.I'm about 2-3 years old and pretty chill...pretty much a couch potato. I LOVE hard chew toys and hold the record at my foster home for how quickly I can 'de-stuff' and 'de-squeak' a soft toy.I recently went to the beach for the first time, and I liked it a lot! I traveled very well in the car.I am potty and crate-trained and did I tell you that I love laying in the bed with my foster mom at night and watching TV before bedtime?If you are interested in meeting me, please contact my foster mom. Thanks! Primary Color: Brown Weight: 50 Age: 3yrs 5mths 2wks

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Meet Freeza! He is a laid back sort of guy who likes to nap and take leisurely strolls. He loves his human family and is always smiling. He gets along with other dogs but is a really rough player and might be too much for some. He likes chewing on bones and enjoys when he gets half of his kibble meal in a treat ball to keep him occupied. He is working on taking treats gently but does still get excited sometimes, so best watch the fingers! Freeza is currently undergoing treatment for heartworms. If adopted before treatment is completed, the adopter would need to continue treatment with their vet. Freeza also has chronic skin allergies that will likely permanently require medication to control. He may need some extra TLC but will pay you back with kisses!

Story
🐾 Meet Mohini, your new best friend! 🐾Are you looking for a furry companion who's already mastered the basics and is ready to fill your life with love? Look no further than Mohini! This adorable pooch is not just a rescue dog; she's a bundle of joy waiting to bring happiness to her forever home.Mohini is the epitome of a well-rounded pup: she's fully house trained and crate trained, making her a breeze to have around the house. She gets along with other dogs, so if you already have a furry friend, they could become fast pals! Curious and always up for an adventure, Mohiniadores her morning walks, sniffing out new scents and exploring the world around her. But don't let her curious nature fool you-Mohini also knows how to kick back and relax. She's a cuddly couch potato who loves nothing more than snuggling up with her favorite humans after a long day. When she's not enjoying quality cuddle time, Mohini is a social butterfly; she absolutely loves meeting new people and doggie friends alike, whether big or small. We do not know how she is with cats.While Mohini is generally well-behaved on leash, she can't help but pull a little when something piques her interest. No worries, though-she takes corrections well and is eager to please, especially if there are treats involved! Speaking of treats, Mohini is treat motivated and has the gentlest mouth when taking them from your hand.In terms of training, Mohini is a star student. She already knows commands like sit, wait, stay, and leave it, and she's always up for learning new tricks. She's even learned how to slow her walk while crossing pedestrian bridges. Her eagerness to learn makes her a joy to train, and you'll love watching her master new skills. Mohini is not just a charming companion-she's also a health-conscious pup! She's up to date on vaccinations, flea, tick, and heartworm prevention, and she's already microchipped and spayed. One thing to note is that Mohini is heartworm positive, but don't let that deter you! Heartworms are easily treatable and are not contagious. Thanks to the generous support from the Friends of Wake County Animal Center, Mohini has a $600 sponsorship to help her forever humans cover the cost of treatment. With the right care and treatment, she'll be back to full health in no time, ready to enjoy a long and happy life with her forever family. Whether you have other furry friends or kids at home, proper introductions and supervision are imperative! We recommend slow introductions over time to any resident cats or dogs. Adults should properly supervise interactions between animals and children at all times. Safety first, but with Mohini around, fun and love are guaranteed! If you're ready to open your heart and home to Mohini, then come meet this lovable pup and see for yourself why she's the perfect addition to your family. Mohini can't wait to meet you and start the next chapter of her life filled with love, cuddles, and plenty of adventures together!

Not good with kids, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
I am happy to introduce the cutest, playful guy-Jimmy! Jimmy is around a year old, a bit over 30 pounds, and enjoys going on walks, playing, and relaxing on the couch. He is crate trained, house trained, and walks well on a leash once his initial excitement of being on a walk is over. Jimmy can be a tiny bit nervous when meeting new people but quickly settles and loves everyone he has met so far. He is a happy, goofy, good boy.Jimmy does have some special considerations and is looking for the perfect home. He can be extremely mouthy when he is overstimulated and sometimes when he is bored. This can be managed and he has improved since being in my home however he will need an understanding owner without young kids who will work with him and understands that he will need time to settle into his new home. Jimmy loves other dogs but his mouthiness can cause them to not love him so much. He would love a dog sibling who likes to wrestle and play, but would also be fine as an only dog. His best friend in my house is my 17 pound chi mix. He has met my outdoor cat one time and was terrified of her. Jimmy is looking for someone to take a chance on him. He is such a good boy and deserves a committed family of his own! He would love to meet you! Primary Color: Brindle- Brown Secondary Color: White Weight: 41 Age: 2yrs 1mths 0wks

Story
Meet Lola, your future partner. She would be that perfect dog for someone looking for a low maintenance, cuddle dog. She is not a walker because she has arthritis but oh is she a cuddler for any human. She sleeps with her foster and watches tv with her foster. She just wants to be with a human. She is potty trained. The foster just asks that you take her out 3 times a day. She really just likes to go outside and do her business then go back inside with her humans. Her perfect day is laying on a comfy couch and having a human to lay by. She also likes some nice little nyla bones. She just wants her adopter to know walking is not her thing, so if you are looking for a dog to walk with...she is not the one. She would be the PERFECT work from home dog. She does not say a peep. You actually forget she is in the house! Please make sure if you have another dog to do a very slow meet and greet. The foster believes she would be better in a home without dogs just for her comfort. Please do a very slow and safe introduction if you have another dog.During a recent playgroup session,Lola took the time to size up her playmates. Like an expert poker player, she didn't tip her hand to let them know whether she was enjoying them or not. After a while, she finally seemed ready to engage, and we did get several playbows out of her. She tolerated a high energy male dog, and did a lot of tail wagging all while maintaining her stoic poker face.She is up to date on vaccinations, flea/tick, and heartworm prevention, is microchipped, and is spayed. If you have dogs or cats, we recommend slow introductions over time. If you have children in your home, we recommend supervision between animals and children at all times.

Yani is NOT an American Staffordshire Terrier. She is a mixed breed and there was no option to bypass this selection. She is up to date on all shots and is a very sweet girl. We are heart broken to have to rehome her but we have no choice. She needs a loving family that has time and energy to play with her. She loves to cuddle and run outside in open fields. She gets along well with cats and has gotten along with other small dogs. I’m not sure how she will handle other dogs her size. Yani will come with all of her toys, her bed, crate, food, and treats.

Hail to the queen, Queen! That’s right, I’m ready to be the queen of your heart and take the throne in your home! As your new queen, here’s what you should know about me:   Crate and castle trained…I keep my quarters clean.    I’m for the people, ALL people, even the littles too (though I may need to be reminded of my enthusiasm).   Castle canines are welcomed and maybe even a few cat peasants, I mean pals, too!   Possess queen etiquette. However, I don’t know everything, but with treats, I can be trained on how to reign in your kingdom.   Enjoy long strolls around the palace and romps about the gardens.   I like a little mystery, so the rest you’ll have to discover about me. Speak to a squire to inquire on how I can take my rightful place in your heart TODAY! ##2129721##

Story
Ladies and gentlemen, I would like to introduce you to the gorgeous Natasha! A beautiful 4 year old boxer mix dog that life has not treated very well; however, and despite how much she has suffered in her short life, her heart has had the ability to forgive and love people again, especially teenagers. And she proves it by giving you her paw when you get home, wagging her hips and tail at a speed that will surprise you!Tasha loves toys! She enjoys chewing on them and her greatest trophy is to find the squeaker and destroy it! She is also very good at playing fetch, making her an excellent playmate. That is why it is very important for her future family to have a fence yard and a male dogs to play with, considering that she gets along better with our dog Copper than with Maggie.When we are sitting at the table, Tasha will sit next to you and start talking, making sounds that will convince you to give her something from your plate, giving her paw as a thank you.We don't know what has happened in her past, but she gets very nervous when she sees someone running, so you must get her attention using a pet corrector and she will obey you immediately. Tasha also reacts to squirrels and bunnies, so it is recommended to be careful when walking.She is potty trained, spayed, vaccinated, heartworm free and ready to fill your life with pure love and tenderness. If you are strongly interested to give this diamond in the rough a second chance, please write to her foster mom at joshei@hotmail.com.Thank you for reading the story of a baby girl of which it is impossible not to fall in love with!
