MAMA SURI
AGE: Approximately 1 to 1.5 years old
BREED: Lab Mix
SEX: F
BACKGROUND: Suri was a very scared mama, handling life on her own. She was found by the graveyard with her puppy Scout. Animal Control was able to first get Scout. They found 3 other puppies that had passed. One of their attempts to catch Mama ended up catching another pup, Inky. And, FINALLY, Mama and one remaining pup, Gravy, got into a Good Samaritan's car who stopped for them. Because Mama wanted to meet the pup the Good Samaritan had with her, she was able to get them and notify Animal Control. We took them under rescue. Mama and 3 puppies are now safe.
NEEDS: Suri finished nursing her babies and her little ones have found loving homes. Now Suri needs a loving home to show her a safe life that's not on the streets.
HEALTH ISSUES: She is in good health and is ready for stability, security, and love.

PUPS SEARCHING FOR LOVING HOMES:
WALLEN
AGE: Approximately 3 - 4 years old
BREED: American Staffordshire Terrier
SEX: M
BACKGROUND: Wallen was removed from an abusive home. He has come a long way since he’s been with his fosters, and is a cuddle bug.
NEEDS: He is a very sweet boy who needs someone patient to help him re-acclimate slowly. He is learning to trust, after his experience in the home where he was removed. This special guy needs a chance! Wallen loves people and has been doing well in his fosters’ home with their pups. He does need a slow introduction to other pups (he gets very excited). He would be good with a balanced female or as an only. He may be too rough for small children at this point. His forever home should have a fenced yard, patient people, and a place where he can rest his weary head. Am Staff experience or similar breed experience preferred.
HEALTH ISSUES: Wallen is up-to-date on core vaccines, HW-, and vetted. He is neutered and microchipped. Wallen is super healthy and ready for his forever home!
Sweetest guy Wallen is so loving with his little foster fursibling. He is waiting patiently for his forever home.
On her freedom ride from the shelter. We gotcha now, little one! No more hard life for you — just lots of love! ❤️
POOCHIE
AGE: Approximately 5 years old
BREED: Staffordshire Terrier Mix
SEX: F
BACKGROUND: Poochie was pulled from the euthanasia list at a shelter. She's very sweet and a little shy right now, but perks up when other pups are around.
NEEDS: She would probably do best with a male furbrother to help continue to build her confidence. We're still learning more about her.
HEALTH ISSUES: Poochie is spayed, up-to-date on core vaccines and bordetella, as well as microchipped.
RYDER
AGE: Approximately 6 years old
BREED: Beagle Mix
SEX: M
BACKGROUND: Ryder was found as a stray and the little guy was terrified in the shelter. He’s likely never been in a house before we rescued him.
NEEDS: Ryder was scared of everything, which is no surprise after everything he must have been through — but, he is coming out of his shell nicely! He definitely needs a fenced-in yard. He probably would benefit from having another pup in the house to help him continue to build confidence. He’s very shy and needs patience for him to trust. He is coming out of his shell nicely. He is good with other dogs in his foster home. It is unknown how he is with cats or small children.
HEALTH ISSUES: Ryder is HW+ and has started treatment. We cover all expenses for HW treatment. He is available for foster-to-adopt. Neutered, up-to-date on vaccines, and microchipped.

Sweet boy in a house for the first time.

TIGGER
AGE: Approximately 1.5 - 2 years old
BREED: Shepherd Mix
SEX: M
BACKGROUND: Tigger was pulled from the shelter.
NEEDS: Tigger is super sweet! He is a big goof ball (65lbs). Tigger is very attentive to his humans. He's learning his manners and tries very hard to please. He's just an all around fun pup! He is VERY smart, even though he is goofy. He knows sit, down, sit pretty, off, and wait. He does have some energy so an active family would be best. He is great with other pups. We have not seen him directly around cats so don't know for certain, but believe he would just want to play with them if anything.
HEALTH ISSUES: He is HW-, neutered, up-to-date on vaccines, and microchipped. Ready to find his forever family!
NACHO
AGE: Approximately 3 years old
BREED: Unknown Mix
SEX: M
BACKGROUND: Nacho is a sweet boy who was pulled from the Bladen County Shelter. We got him just in time, as he was on the euthanasia list due to limited space and time.
NEEDS: Nacho is, of course, very scared but beginning to settle in with his foster. He's a sweet guy who tested well with other pups and wasn't interested in cats. We have more to learn about him! He needs a break.... His young life has not been good so far :(
HEALTH ISSUES: He's neutered, micro-chipped, and we'll get him up-to-date on Lepto vaccine. Sadly, he is HW+ and the rescue covers expenses for treatment.

HOLLY
AGE: Approximately 8-9 years old
BREED: Pug
SEX: F
BACKGROUND: This little one was rescued from a shelter around Christmas time, so she was named Holly.
NEEDS: In her current foster home, she lives with dogs and cats, so she would be fine with furry siblings.
HEALTH ISSUES: Benign tumors on her belly were removed, which has left a long scar that she wears with pride to represent her survival. She is all healed and has been spayed and microchipped. Holly is current on vaccines and is HW-. She is ready for her forever home!
MITCHEL
AGE: Approximately 4 months old
BREED: Mix Puppy
SEX: M
BACKGROUND: Mitchel has two front bowed legs due to malnutrition. HOWEVER he is doing well now that he is getting supplements and high quality food! We don't expect there to be any residual effects.
NEEDS: Mitchel is a happy boy, loves sitting in your lap. A yard would be good for this little guy and a furry playmate would help him continue to learn as he grows. His fosters love him to pieces.
HEALTH ISSUES: He's neutered, microchipped, and will be fully up-to-date on all vaccines along with being vetted.
CHANCE
AGE: Approximately 1-2 years old
BREED: Black Mouth Cur Mix
SEX: M
BACKGROUND: Chance was in the shelter and on the adoption floor — but, because he was so scared, everyone passed right over him. It didn't take him long to come out of his shell and he's one happy pup now!!
NEEDS: The little guy still acts a lot like a puppy. Chance loves other dogs and would do best with a furry sister he can play with in a fenced in backyard to release some of his energy. He also loves being with his human(s).
HEALTH ISSUES: Chance is HW+ and has started treatment. We cover all expenses for heart worm treatment. This sweet boy is available for foster-to-adopt. Neutered, up-to-date on vaccines, and microchipped.
WILMA
AGE: Approximately 3 months old
BREED: Lab & (maybe) Border Collie Mix
SEX: F
BACKGROUND: Wilma was rescued from the shelter and is a sweet little girl.
NEEDS: She is ready for a foster-to-adopt home. Wilma is super sweet and certainly wants to be the Belle of the Ball LOL!! She would do great with an energetic older brother who could teach her the ropes. She sleeps through the night already and her foster is working on housebreaking her.
HEALTH ISSUES: To come from her vet visits.
LAYLA
AGE: Approximately 4 months old
BREED: Mixed Breed
SEX: F
BACKGROUND: We just pulled her from a shelter, so she has a little to go before we can look at foster-to-adopt or adoption.

BREED: Chihuahua Mix
SEX: F
BACKGROUND: Lili was pulled from the Bladen County shelter.

ACASIA
AGE: Approximately 3 years old
BREED: Staffordshire Terrier Mix
SEX: F
BACKGROUND: Acasia was scheduled to be euthanized for space on the day we pulled her from the shelter. Special thanks to Kaitlyn & Dylan for being willing to foster her AND thereby saved her life!
NEEDS: She is such a sweet girl and can't stop smiling and wiggling her butt! Acasia loves other pups and is currently with her fosters' pup, who is a little guy. She is also little, at 40 lbs. She sometimes needs to be reminded not to be so rambunctious with little pups, and does respond very well to re-direction. At the shelter, she did well with any pup she met. We don't know about cats. We do know that Acasia is just full of love!
HEALTH ISSUES: She is up-to-date on vaccines, vetted, and microchipped. She still needs to be spayed. However, she is HW- (yay!) and has been doing really well at her fosters' home.
YODA
AGE: Approximately 2 years old
BREED: Staffordshire Terrier Mix
SEX: M
BACKGROUND: Yoda was pulled from the Duplin County Shelter. He was on the euthanasia list.
NEEDS: He is a good boy who needs a patient owner and more training. He is slowly learning how to be on a leash, as he can be reactive. Yoda does well with the foster's pup and is great with kids. He does need a slow introduction to new pups. Yoda would do best with a female pup or as an only. A fenced yard is needed so he can play and do his zoomies!
HEALTH ISSUES: Yoda is HW-, altered, and up-to-date on vaccines.
