Gypsy loves a daily dose of shenanigans. She loves wallowing in the water like a happy, little hippo. She also loves chasing a laser light around. It's fun to watch her chase it around!   Gypsy sometimes has spurts of energy, but she can also be the perfect couch potato to cuddle and watch movies with you! She is so much fun to be around. She loves being outside, running, and chasing her foster siblings.   She has adorable head turns and will certainly make many heads turn as you walk this beauty down the street! Gypsy would thrive most in a home with another dog to play with and to continue to learn socialization skills. She has grown up with cats but will chase them since she thinks they want to play, so a dog-savvy cat family would be fine.    Gypsy loves to play fetch and tug. She also loves to settle down and chew on a bone.     She is constantly learning and will require gentle, positive reinforcement training and correction as she grows into a young adult. Gypsy is very smart and learns quickly what is expected of her. She loves to make her people happy, but sometimes needs redirection. Like any young adolescent dog, she sometimes needs reminding of her boundaries. Gypsy is working on simple commands. She knows “sit,” “wait,” and “leave it.” She is working on recall and “stay.” She is a smart girl.   Gypsy is crate trained. She takes her meals and sleeps in her crate at night. A solid fenced yard to run and play is preferred for this little cutie and it should be 4-5ft tall minimum height without gaps. If no fence is available, her new family will need to ensure 4-5 daily outings for walks, play and running around. Gypsy Rose may not be the perfect apartment dog, as she loves to voice her opinion. She has a beautiful bark and knows it very well!   DOB 04/03/2022  As part of Gypsy Rose Lee's $275 adoption fee, she is spayed, microchipped, up to date on age appropriate vaccines, and current on her monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives. If you have questions about this sweet little girl, you can email Dogteam@pawsforlifenc.org.

Houdini is definitely a love bug. He wants to be near his people and normally enjoys laying on you. He gives really good head bumps. He is not into playing;  he is just a chill boy. He does "talk" some but is more of the strong and silent type unless he is telling you it’s time to eat. He definitely enjoys being in his cat tree so he can see what is happening. He likes other cats but he would love to stay with Oliver (his housemate since he was a kitten).    He is scared of dogs so he needs a house with no dogs and no intentions of getting one.  His ideal home is one with adults or adults with teenagers. He does not like babies, toddlers, or young children.  Houdini is on special food. He needs the Urinary formula to keep him healthy and to help keep UTI’s (Urinary Tract Infections) and crystals away.  He is up to date on shots, negative for FIV / FeLV, microchipped, and neutered.  show less

  Iris has the best houndy-ears; they are soft, velvety and silky smooth. They are super cute because they pretty much go in every direction and can kinda do a helicopter thing.  They sparkle in the sun and flop around when she bounces and plays. She also has cute little white socks on her toes, so when she is prancing around it's like an old-school sock hop.   This little sweetheart loves to keeps the fun rolling by chewing and tossing her toys like a pro. With Iris by your side, each day is guaranteed to be filled with happiness and laughter. And when she's all tuckered out, get ready for some serious snuggle sessions!   Iris is a social butterfly who adores everyone she meets. She's already working on perfecting her leash manners, but as a puppy, she'll need ongoing practice to grow into a well-behaved doggo. So take her out for walks, run errands together, and watch as she captures the hearts of both friends and strangers. But wait, there's more! Iris absolutely craves the company of another four-legged friend, as playing without a furry playmate would leave her feeling lonely and bored. So do you have another playful dog that is just dying for another furry-friend, then Iris may be the girl for you!   This sweet little girl aims to please her humans and is incredibly intelligent. She easily follows the lead of the other dogs and is always eager to learn. Iris is a playful ball of energy, but also holds a bit of a submissive side. She's on the hunt for a loving and nurturing family who understands that training a puppy takes patience and time. As long as you break the lessons into short, fun intervals, Iris is all ears! And did we mention she's food-motivated? That means positive reinforcement training will be a breeze. A fenced yard is exactly what Iris desires, giving her the space to play and explore to her heart's content before coming in for a well-deserved nap in her cozy crate. So with toys and treats, Iris is ready to put her little listening ears on and begin her early "childhood education!!"   As part of Iris’s $325 adoption fee, she will be spayed, microchipped, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, and current on her monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives.   If you have questions about this sweet little girl, you can email  Dogteam@pawsforlifenc.org.  If you wish to adopt Iris, you can fill in an online application for her under the Adopt a Pet Tab on our website:  www.pawsforlifenc.org. show less

I got a new foster hound girl! We have 4 personal dogs already; 3 boys and 1 girl. I didn’t know what to call this cute, quirky addition to our pack…so I just started referring to her as “The New Girl.”    That got me thinking about the show by the same name. It stars Zooey Deschanel as the main character Jess. The premise of the show is that Jess is a little offbeat and “adorkable” but she had a bad breakup with her ex and she has moved into an apartment with three guys, where hilarity ensues. Her friends do their best to hook her up with a new love interest.    The parallel references are uncanny: 1. offbeat and “adorkable”… tell me that doesn’t sound like EVERY SINGLE HOUND you’ve ever met!; 2. bad break-up with her ex…I truly believe that this sweet girl’s “owner” used her for breeding and then dumped her; 3. moves in with three guys…yes, the Duncan casa has three men (Manny, Shorty and Mr. Bean) - plus the old Millie girl; 4. hilarity ensues…well duh! Doesn’t it always when you have a house full of knucklehead furbabies!; 5. Her friends…me, you, and all our rescue volunteers; and finally 6. hook her up with a new love interest…we will find her the VERY BEST FOREVER HOME!    Now on to some other fun facts about Jess.  She is definitely a diamond in the rough and with the right polishing (and patience) she will be a glorious jem!  She has all of the amazing and silly typical hound personality traits!  She can be chatty and is sometimes loud and silly when playing. So an apartment, condo or townhome probably not the best fit.  Plus, Jess really wants and needs a 6ft fenced yard to run and play with her furry siblings!  She has some hops so even when outside in her fenced yard, she and her friends should have a "chaperone." Don't let this little escape artist fool you!   Jess needs an active family with an equally active brother/sister dog, so she has someone to play around and goof off with!  Her new family will need to continue to work on training and be able to plan "boredom buster" activities to give her fun things to chew on and keep her busy.  Jess loves, loves, loves chewing on things so to avoid her chewing on things you don't want (i.e. your table legs) make sure to give her appropriate chew toys, bones, bully sticks, etc. Jess is crate trained and potty trained so no worries there. She is happy to sleep in her crate or on the sofa cuddled up with her foster siblings.   Jess has not been cat tested and hasn't had the opportunity to meet any kitties yet. We don't THINK she would hurt a cat, but would definitely give chase!  A home with dog-savvy kitties and places that are "kittie spaces" we think will be ok. If her new family has kids, they should be older and enjoy the attention of a lively pup. Jess would easily accidently knock down littlies with her happy enery.   If you are looking for fun, then look no further than Jess. She will have you laughing and smiling each and every day with her houndy-endless-lust-for-life!  There is no such thing as a bad day with Jess.  She takes the ordinary and makes it extrodinary with her antics.  If she isn't getting into some kind of "trouble" she's probably asleep. If you are energic, joyful, cheerful, and have a ZEST for life and adventure, then you must meet Jess. She is truly all about love and laughter.    DOB(9/14/2018) As part of Jess’s $300 adoption fee, she will be spayed, microchipped, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, and current on her monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives.  If you have questions about this sweet little girl, you can email  Dogteam@pawsforlifenc.org.  If you wish to adopt Jess, you can fill in an online application for her under the Adopt a Pet Tab on our website:  www.pawsforlifenc.org. show less

HI!  My name is Johnny.  I am looking for a permanent companionship with a great family!  If you have friendly dogs and/or cats I would consider that to be a plus!  I am 6 months old and having been living with my foster parents since I was a wee little boy.  They tell me everyday that I am a “good boy” and I can’t wait to show you how sweet I am.  I love being around humans, dogs and cats.  I love to play in my tunnel  and then chill out in my cat tree.  My foster parents have a dog that I love being around, she lets me give her tons of head butts.  I like to snuggle  with you when I’m tired and I purr so loud that I wake myself up.  Please consider letting me join your family.  I am up to date on all my vaccines and preventives and have tested negative for FIV and Feline Leukemia.

Kesha will jump right in the car to go with you, so pack her up and take her! She is a road trip fanatic and would love to go with you when you head out and about. If you have a passenger in the back, she may even try and snuggle up on your lap some! Plus, once you get to your destination, Kesha will be the hit of anyone you meet. She loves other dogs and people; the word stranger means absolutely nothing to her. She thinks everyone wants to be her bestie!   She has a lot of happy, young pup energy and wants a good 5ft+ fenced in yard to run around safely. In that yard, Kesha wants at least one playful furry dog friend to run, romp, and roll around with. This will help her burn of her energy. She also wants to get out each day for leash walking as well; she needs practice and consistency is important. Everyone wants a dog that behaves nicely on leash so when you go to activities, dinner, the vet, Kesha knows basic commands and how to properly behave. Plus, she is doing well with crate training and is already potty trained! WIN!    Make sure you have time each day to spend playing with Kesha and then have some good ole snuggle time! She such a sweetheart and will be happy to share her boundless amount of love with you. Your day will begin and end with smiles, tail wags, and sweetness if you adopt Kesha! Don't you want to meet her??   (DOB 12/06/2021) As part of Kesha $300 adoption fee she is spayed, microchipped, up to date on age appropriate vaccines, and current on her monthly flea/tick and heartworm prevention.

Say hello to little Kevin! This guy is all about play, play, play! He’s a rough and tumble type of kitten who has no problem keeping up with his big foster brothers. Kevin would do best in a home with another kitty friend that likes to wrestle. He has the softest medium length hair, once he’s tired from playing he’ll happily let you cuddle up with him. And When you have to do chores around the house he will be right there to help you out. Kevin is still a young kitten learning that hands are for petting and not playing so he would probably be better suited in a home with older kids. He’s a happy little guy that can’t wait to start his life with his very own family.  Kevin tested  negative for feline leukemia and FIV. His adoption fee includes his neuter surgery, his rabies vaccine, updated age appropriate vaccines, and microchip, once old enough. Please note: we do not adopt unaltered kittens to homes beyond a 45-minute drive of our veterinarians. show less

If you are looking for fun & excitement, Koda is your guy! His enthusiasm for life is contagious, and once you meet him, you'll never want to let go! This four-legged bundle of energy and joy is always up for adventure with his people. When his people are busy, toys are his holy grail. He loves chasing them, fetching them, and proudly showing off his prized possessions to anyone who will watch.     And let's talk about his social skills – this pup is as friendly as they come!  He wants to be everyone's best friend--wagging his tail and making new pals left and right. Other canines can't help but be drawn to his irresistible charm and infectious puppy spirit, albeit he can come on a little much for some.   Lastly, prepare to be dazzled by Koda's stunning good looks. With his luscious fur, and perfect smile, he's a real head-turner. He’s a smart guy as well.  He knows sit and down, and we are working on no jumping and being calm when meeting new people. Since he doesn’t know his size and can knock down an unsuspecting person in play, he is looking for a home with older kids (teenagers.)  He takes his treats gently and is super food motivated--this helps immensely with his training.  He is crate trained, but it’s not his favorite place to be.  His leash training is a work in progress and he does best with a front clip harness.   So if you're looking for a one-year-old ball of energy, cuteness, and pure doggie magic, look no further than Koda. He's ready to take on the world and capture your heart, one slobbery kiss at a time. Get ready for an adventure-filled life with this handsome boy!   As part of Koda’s $300 adoption fee, he will be neutered, microchipped, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, and current on his monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives.  If you have questions about this sweet boy, you can email Dogteam@pawsforlifenc.org.  If you wish to adopt Koda, you can fill in an online application for him under the Adopt a Pet Tab on our website:  www.pawsforlifenc.org. show less

Are you looking for a mature gentleman with a loving and tender heart? This sweet boy, Legend, loves both humans and dogs.  He adapts well to his environment and loves everyone he meets. He gets along with both large and small dogs. He will most definitely need at least one furry sibling in his new home. He still has playful spurts of energy with his foster friends.   At his age he is also happy just chillin' out and getting pets. He is such an amazing, sweet, kind companion!! You will find that he is a little shy at first, but warms up quickly. His furry siblings are also his confidence builders. He watches them and follows suit. It is actually very cute.   Very small children may cause Legend to back away at first due to quick movements and loudness, but with patience and practice he should adjust. We recommend children 10+ for Legend.  He is good on a leash on his regular walks and familiar surroundings. If something loud or scary comes by, he will pull away from it. A pocket full of tasty treats can't hurt, so take some with you. He would probably appreciate walking with a furry friend as well. We are looking for a home with a 4ft+ fenced yard, so he can sniff, check out the worlk and play a little but mostely hang out with his furry sibling(s).   Legend does pretty well in the car, but he can use more practice. He is a bit nervous to begin with yet settles in; just a lot of new experiences for this sweet boy to learn about. He would love a patient and kind person to love and work with him each day.   Think of all the benefits you would get from adopting this sweet, gentle soul - house trained, well mannered, loveable, sweet and so much more! He doesn't require being crated as he is well behaved. He will sleep on his doggie bed peacefully. Puppies are cute but if you want a low maintenance dog, you really need to meet LEGEND! As part of Legend's $300 adoption fee, he is neutered, microchipped, up to date on vaccines, and current on his monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives. If you have questions about this sweet boy, you can email Dogteam@pawsforlifenc.org.  If you wish to adopt Legend, you can fill in an online application for him under the Adopt a Pet Tab on our website:  www.pawsforlifenc.org show less

(DOB 8/20/2023)  Due to Levy’s young age, he has not yet been neutered.  For this reason, we are only considering local placement (within 1 hour drive time of Wake Forest NC).  Meet Levy! Pronounced Levee!   Levy is the sweetest, most curious, cuddly, playful and even tempered puppy! He is in a foster family filled with cats, dogs and even a child and is just a super little guy!  He takes correction from his two older foster dog siblings very well and is respectful and learning so much from them.  He definitely will need another fun, furry sibling in his fur-ever home.  He is also quite curious about his foster cat siblings who have both played with him and swatted at him when he gets a little extra playful.  His four year old human foster sister asks him to sit before he eats, and he is eager to please and learn. He is also the cutest when she is carrying him like a baby doll! He is very tolerant of her, and it just says so much about his tempermant and loveable personality.  He has quickly figured out which toys are for him and which aren't (he is very intelligent)!     He is rambunctious yet chill.  He loves playing and will need a family who wants to spend lots of time burning off his puppy energy until he is ready to take a good ole nap.     At his age he is doing great with potty training. He is already getting the hang of piddle pads and going poppy outside. He just needs proper routines and someone home a good majority of the time while he is young and learning. A family with at least one person home (working, school, etc) is what Levy is looking for.   We feel he would thrive in a home with other animals or children where he would have all the love, playtime and cuddles. He will be an incredible addition to a family of his very own!  Once you meet Levy, you will agree!!   As part of Levy’s $325 adoption fee, he will be neutered, microchipped, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, and current on his monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives. In addition to the adoption fee, a $100 spay/neuter deposit and puppy spay/neuter agreement will also be required. The deposit will be returned once the puppy is altered.  If you have questions about this sweet little boy, you can email  Dogteam@pawsforlifenc.org.  If you wish to adopt Levy, you can fill in an online application for him under the Adopt tab on his profile on our website:  www.pawsforlifenc.org.   show less
