Duncan



AGE: 7 YEARS
SEX: Male
COLOR: White
BREED: Hound
I LOVE FOOD and will do absolutely anything for a treat. I know I have the best nose at the shelter because I've participated in Nosework classes. And I'm a pro in training classes! I've even completed Family Dog 1! Anything for a hotdog! I love running in the large field with my friend Oliver, but perhaps my favorite thing to do is to walk the trails with my people friends. I'm a true hound and love to investigate all the great smells I find on the trails! I am house-trained, and I have already spent some time in a foster home learning how to live with a family. If you have a fenced-in yard, I will be quite content and we will be a great match. I absolutely love my belly to be scratched and will never say no to toys and treats. I'm easy-going and always very happy. If you've had a bad day, just sit with me for a bit and all your stress will disappear! Duncan is sponsored by Sheila and Robert Bush. UPDATE: Duncan has cruciate ligament tears in both his rear legs and will need to have surgery. He's looking for a foster family to help during his recovery.

Petie



AGE: 8 YEARS
SEX: Male
COLOR: Tan
BREED: Retriever, Labrador
I'm a bit timid of new situations and will do best in a home with no children or other pets. But I'm a sweet, calm pup for adults! I love to go for walks and am even a great running partner! Exploring is one of my favorite things to do, so if you like to go for nature walks or hikes, we'll be a great fit. I'm a patient and mellow dog. I love to be petted and have been told I have the sweetest, sad eyes that will melt your heart.

Crissy



AGE: 7 YEARS
SEX: Female
COLOR: Brown
BREED: Retriever, Labrador
My name is Crissy which is short for Christmas Snow. I need a special person who is willing to put in time to help me with being with other dogs and people I don't know. In August 2011, I suffered a severe ear infection that triggered some nerve damage, but otherwise I am very healthy. I have received two awards from The Northern Centre for Canine Behavior, passed the ten requirements of the British Kennel Club Good Citizen Test at the Bronze level, and completed the required certification for scent detection. I am house trained; I keep a very neat kennel and I get along with cats. I will need a home with a fenced in yard to run around. Because I will do best if I have a stable and consistent environment and routine, I wouldn't be a very good fit for someone who travels a lot or has small children in the house.

Oliver



AGE: 4 YEARS
SEX: Male
COLOR: White
BREED: Coonhound, Treeing Walker
I am a 45-pound boy who is an avid explorer and who loves to play! Although I can be a little rambunctious when I first come indoors, I calm down very quickly and I listen well to come and sit. When I need to go out, I let you know by tapping on the door. Toys that squeak or bounce are my absolute favorites. Humans tell me I have a very cute snore when I sleep. I love to play in the yard or just take a nap inside and will do great in most any home. Oliver is sponsored by John Wise.

Marissa



AGE: 2 YEARS
SEX: Female
COLOR: Black
BREED: Shepherd
I love to play, play, play with other male dogs and puppies; but, not so much with cats or female dogs. The staff here says that I am a great leash walker and that I am very sweet. Because I have a lot of energy, I don't do well with small children. But, if you would like an active companion who is always ready for adventure, I am your dog! I'm a great runner and love to go hiking with my human and dog friends. Open your car door and I'll jump right in, ready to explore! Marissa is sponsored by Laura and David Griest.

Jade



AGE: 7 YEARS
SEX: Female
COLOR: Brindle
BREED: Terrier, Pit Bull
** Jade is currently in foster care ** When I get to know you, I love you! In fact, I love to lean in against your leg to give you a hug! I am pretty good with my training and have learned "sit" "down" "leave it" and am working on "touch." I am very good at recall and will run to you and sit. Tug toys are my favorite - I will bring it back, drop it, and wait for you to throw it again. And, I walk beautifully on leash. I prefer a quiet, relaxing environment and will do best in a home without other dogs. Jade is sponsored by Karen Bremer.

Lisel



AGE: 2 YEARS
SEX: Female
COLOR: Black
BREED: Retriever, Labrador
Liesel is currently in foster care at Bayou Rescue. The following is how her foster care family describes her: Liesel is a smaller, wonderful dog who is trained and ready for adoption. She is fully vetted, heart worm negative, and house trained. She likes people, kids, dogs, and is ok with indoor cats. She can be a little leary of men at first but warms up quickly. Liesel was found as a stray in Nash Co. She would be fine in a home as a single dog or second dog. She loves to walk and ride in the car but she doesn't need an excessive amount of exercise. She is very loving and snuggly! She knows sit, stay, lay down and has picked up on the "house rules" real quick. She is very smart. If you are interested in meeting Liesel, please contact Kelly Ronnow at 336-263-6772 or email k.ronnow@yahoo.com.

SEX: Male
COLOR: Brown
BREED: Beagle
** In foster to adopt ** I love to play with kids and toys! My human friends tell me I'm a really good snuggler and have soft, soft ears! I sure do love to be petted! I'm a pretty rambunctious beagle and can scale a tall fence, so my new family will need to make sure I'm protected and can't run away in chase of rabbits! I love to speak and will let you know when anyone new comes to visit, but I'm a friendly pup. I love everybody! Come out and visit me today! John is sponsored by Andy Ives.

Slippery Pete



AGE: 8 YEARS
SEX: Male
COLOR: Brindle
BREED: Boxer
I'm a goofy guy and love just about everybody! I like going to training class and have been told that I'm very smart. Even though I'm a big boy, I can scale a high fence so my new family will have to make sure I don't sneak out the back yard. I love going for walks but don't need strenuous activity to keep me happy. I'm just content to spend time with the people I love! Slippery Pete is sponsored by Sheila and Robert Bush.

Bubba Gump



AGE: 1 YEARS
SEX: Male
COLOR: Brown
BREED: German Shepherd
I love people! Come hang out with me and we'll be friends right away! I also love treats! My bloodhound nose helps me seek them out! If you have treats, I'll find them! I'm good at "sit" and would love to work on my training with you. I love to go for walks and am learning to walk on a leash. I get a bit excited and I'm big, so you'll have to hold my leash tight. Everybody says I'm playful but gentle. Come out and play with me! Bubba Gump is sponsored by Lynn Rives.

Pawtucket



AGE: 1 YEARS
SEX: Male
COLOR: Chocolate
BREED: Retriever, Labrador
I love to run and play - all day! And I really enjoy going for walks with my human friends. I'm really strong and do get pretty excited when I'm on leash - all the sights and smells are thrilling! Someone has to have a good hold on me to keep me from pulling really hard. With some training and a good harness though, I'll be a much easier walker. Everybody tells me they love my super soft fur. They love to rub it, and I don't mind one bit!

Warwick



AGE: 1 YEARS
SEX: Male
COLOR: Brown
BREED: Rottweiler
I'm a sweet little guy and everybody tells me I'm super soft and snuggly. Everybody loves to rub my ears...and that's OK because I love it, too! I might be a little shy when you first meet me, because I'm new here and I'm just getting to know the place. But once you spend time with me, you'll love me and I'll ove you! I love to play and run around, but my favorite thing is having my belly rubbed!!
