All I want for Christmas!

Sacchi has healed up nicely and just needs a home for the holidays. She is all better, sutures out, off antibiotics and learning to co-habitate with other dogs without being afraid of them. She snuggles with her foster brother in a dog bed. She is a low key puppy who would prefer to lay around and snuggle. She deserves a home for the holidays and has asked Santa for a family for Christmas. She says Thank YOU to Marti for donating so that her leg could come off and she get a second chance. She says a leg is a small price to pay to keep her life.

Stella

Stella's a good girl. She's a sweet adult dog who got down on her luck and homeless in Wilson NC and managed to make things swing in her favor until she got to a rescue. She has been spayed, fully vetted, including crate training, housebreaking and microchipped. She is heartworm negative and on prevention. She's about two years old and between 45-50 lbs.

She is good with other dogs, loves to play and mingle with other doggie pals. She likes to wrestle hard but if another dog doesn't want to, she's willing to back off and go do something else. She would like a home with a playmate that can keep up with her or an owner who would be willing to socialize her with other dogs (provided the other dogs are well mannered and friendly). She gets along with cats but sometimes likes to give them "the eye" when they rush by in the middle of play.

She doesn't like her crate but she's become crate trained and accepts it with grace and goes in when asked. She would prefer to be inside in a crate during the day than outside alone in the backyard. In fact she doesn't want to be outside alone at all and will sit as close to the glass peering in hoping to get to come inside. She goes right to her crate to sleep at night in her foster home but would really like to have a doggie bed beside the bed of her new owner.

She loves chew toys, filled bones, knuckle bones (sterliized the best) and any pigs ear, bully sticks she can get. She can dismantle a black kong into pieces and put a hurting on the "pit bull tough" black nyla bone. She prefers the "natural" chews but will take anything that's shaped like a bone or filled with a treat. Loves "beggin bacon" treats. She's a smart girl, eager to please and food motivated. She would enjoy a positive training class with a new owner. She walks
nicely on leash and only needs a gentle reminder not to pull. She's a very soft submissive dog and verbal correction is all that is needed to modify behavior.

She would like a couple of walks a day or some romp time with a doggie pal. She has moderate exercise needs for a young bully but if she doesn't get some exercise time she may nibble on her bed while you are gone during the day.

She's a snuggler and a needy girl, always ready to get and give affection and would prefer curling up in a lap to eating any day. She is a bit of a chicken and avoids scary things if she can but is happy to meet new people every day. She is all wiggles and waggs when she makes a new friend.

THANK YOU

Thank you to those who have taken time to donate this year, your generosity means a great deal. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts and the dogs thank you. Without your support we would not have been able to save those dogs with serious medical problems this year:
Frank, Sunshine, Brianna, and Sacchi

Foster homes desperately needed

They are desperately needed all of the time but in today's economy, there are even more homeless dogs and more dogs being turned out every day. We are such a small program that we are unable to help as many as we would like without many qualified foster homes. If you would like to foster a dog, we would be happy to find you a dog that matches your home to make fostering as easy as possible.
