****ADOPTION PENDING***
After a brief "trial" adoption, Briar has found herself back at the shelter through no fault of her own. The other dog in the home, made it clear that sharing space was not something she would be ok with. Briar was spayed this morning and is feeling a bit groggy, needing a "wagon ride" to her kennel. This affectionate senior dog is in search of a loving home where she can take her time to adjust and unwind. Ideally, she would thrive in an environment with a calm dog that appreciates the company of others. If you would like to learn more about Briar, please reach out to the shelter at 709-651-3002.

Our beautiful 5-year-old spayed English Spot, Odin, has been with us for 7 months, and this weekend, with the shelter a little quieter, she’s been making the most of her freedom! Exploring every corner, showing off her curious personality, and even sneaking in a few kisses for one of our staff members 🥹

Odin is reminding us just how sweet she can be, and she’s hoping to find a home where she can enjoy the free-roaming life she deserves. A family, a little space to explore, and lots of love — that’s all this girl is asking for.

Seven months is long enough, Odin. Your happily ever after is out there. ❤️
