Special Needs Pups in Foster
OLIVE HAS BEEN ADOPTED!!!
OLIVE AND DIXIE
These two girls are "sisters" - both picked up by ACO running loose in Dunn (with a third girl, Daisy, who has been adopted). Both are lab mixes (we think boxer) and are about 18 months old. They are both skittish around people, but love other animals. Luckily, they are both in foster care with the same foster, in Garner. They are coming out of their shells and are interacting with the people of the house more every day. Olive (brown) tested positive for heartworms, but we are treating her. Dixie (white and black) is afraid of going in and out of a house, but once outside (or back inside) is fine. Both are fully vetted, current on all shots and deworming, and spayed. Both will need families with patience to help them overcome their shyness. The reward is tremendous --- they love their foster parents and will be very loyal companions.
ADOPTED!!!!
MAX
Max,was surrendered to the Wilson County Shelter for attacking a chihuahua who threatened his wheelchair-bound owner. Ruf Creek pulled him and placed him with one of our rescue-friends who operates a boarding facility. He has been evaluated by a trainer to see if he really has dog aggression or was just protecting his owner. Well, he has shown no aggresssion to any of the other dogs at the facility, and he has been tested with other dogs. He is ready to move on to his next chapter and we are desperately looking for a foster or adopter who will give this boy the best years of his remaining life. He is approximately 10, fully vetted (neutered and all shots and deworming). He does have a mild deformity of his left front leg, but as you can see from the pictures - it does not bother him at all. While he has shown no aggression, we would prefer if he could be an only dog, or with a calm female. Currently located in Rougemont, NC.
