Unleashed the Dog & Cat Store is a locally owned & operated group of stores in NC. This page is devoted to the rescue animals being fostered by our staff.

This page is dedicated to the foster dogs and cats being fostered by Unleashed staff. Here you will find pictures of current and past rescue animals pulled from NC shelters who have been given a second chance by our employees who take them into their homes and care for them, our customers who help us spread the word and their adopters who give them furever homes. Animals that are currently availab

le for Adoption have their own photo album. Please go to their album and read their bios for more information. Animals are fostered through a variety of organizations so the screening and adoption process may vary from one pet to the next. Their album includes information regarding who to contact and/or how to submit an application. The respective foster parent should be listed as well, along with the store location where they are employed. Please use the contact info provided or contact their foster parent directly with all questions. Once they have been Adopted, they are moved to the "Success" album. Thank you for supporting our rescue efforts!! Love,
Unleashed Staff & Fosters

Jersey is a good boy who needs stability.

The perks:

Archie
Dog - Boxer/Bulldog, American
S*x : Male
Age : 5M / 3W
Crate Trained, Good With Dogs, Good With Kids, Owner Experience

Archie is super sweet, with a strong personality. He enjoys snuggling and is good with kids. Would be ideal for him to be a only dog. Very food motivated and again SUPER SNUGGLY!

He is food/treat motivates which makes him easy to train. He is good with kids, dogs, and cats though he does like to chase them to play. He sleeps in a crate no problem but still working on potty training.

He needs a strong/knowledgeable owner that will keep up with training.

Archie is being fostered by staff at our Stonehenge store and is available through Freedom Ride Rescue.

Broski (and herd)
Est DOB: 6/12/19
Guinea Pig
Short hair
Adoption fee: $70 (whole herd)

Are you ready for a whole herd of guinea pig fun? Do you have plenty of leafy greens and veggies to share every day? Well if so, you're in the right place because Simon, Gusgus, Broski, and Scamp are looking for their new home! These boys are handsome, young piggies who have been wonderfully cared for their whole lives. Their previous mom found herself in the midst of some big changes and was no longer able to provide these guys with the time they needed so here they are, ready to start the next adventure.

Scamp, Gusgus, and Broski lived with their previous mom's friend when they were babies. Their previous mom took them in when her friend could no longer care for the trio and she introduced them to Simon. Broski is probably the most fly-under-the-radar guy of the bunch. He doesn't make waves and is content with letting his brothers rush around and check things out. Make no mistake though, when it's salad time, he will be jockeying for his spot to get the best greens! He is pretty adventurous with trying different veggies and he loves oregano and mint! He isn't really into being picked up but tolerates it alright when needed.

All four boys LOVE their daily salad and eat nearly anything offered with gusto. Red bell pepper and parsley seem to be the favorites but if it's edible, they aren't complaining! They eat their hay and pellets well also.

This herd of boys has lived together for over a year so we are looking for a home for them all together. If you are a guinea pig person who has room for these four boys, contact the rescue to start the adoption process!

Simon, Scamp, Broski, and Gusgus live at our Stonehenge store and are available through Velvet Acres Animal Rescue.

Their previous mom took them in when her friend could no longer care for the trio and she introduced them to Simon. Gusgus is a sweetie! He is the one that enjoys being held the most but he still prefers being on the ground and will squeal dramatically when you pick him up. He really enjoys having his neck rubbed once he is in your lap though! He will sit for a little bit and enjoy the attention but soon he's ready to be on the move again to see what he can check out.
