🐾🏡 Forever Home Friday: Poppy 🏡🐾

Poppy has settled right into her new life, and apparently she has plenty to say about it.

She is a very chatty girl who has no problem meowing at everyone when she decides it is time for some attention. She now has three siblings to run around and play with, and when she is not busy with them, you can usually find her chasing one of her favorite green puff balls or springs.

Poppy has also figured out the quieter parts of home life. She loves curling up with her family while they read or watch TV, although there is one part of her daily routine that might outrank everything else.

Churu time.

We have a feeling Poppy has everyone in that house very well trained already. ❤️

We love seeing her comfortable, spoiled, surrounded by family, and making sure everybody knows exactly when she requires their attention.

If you adopted from PCAS, send us your photos and updates. We love seeing where they are now.

🐾🧡 Everyone Who Knows Crackers Says the Same Thing 🧡🐾

One of the hardest things about meeting a shelter dog is wondering what they will be like once they are actually home.

With Crackers, we already know.

She has spent time in foster homes, gone on outings with volunteers, and every report we get back tells us the same thing: Crackers is an incredibly sweet girl who settles beautifully into everyday life.

She is around 3 years old, about 50 pounds, heartworm negative, and listed as a Lab mix. She is housebroken, rides well in the car, loves walks and adventures, takes treats gently, enjoys toys, and is more than happy to settle in for some serious cuddle time.

One foster described her as loving, gentle, and loyal and called her “the absolute perfect dog.” She was wonderful with their young daughter, did not jump on people, and quickly became part of the family routine.

Another family loved her just as much. Their home simply was not the right long-term fit with their other pets.

That is the thing about Crackers. She has already shown us that she knows how to be someone’s companion.

She can be your walking buddy, your adventure buddy, your couch buddy, and the dog waiting to climb into your lap when the day is over.

Crackers is best-friend material.

Now we just need to find the person who gets to call her theirs.

🎃🐾 Trunk-or-Treat Pup Cup Outtakes 🐾🎃

Because apparently no Trunk-or-Treat is complete without giving a bunch of shelter dogs whipped cream and then trying to photograph the aftermath.

Some understood the assignment.

Some absolutely did not.

There was whipped cream on noses, tongues everywhere, questionable technique, and more than a few faces that made it very clear this was serious business.

They may not have been the most photogenic moments of the day, but they were definitely some of the funniest.

Our dogs had a blast getting out, meeting people, and enjoying a few very important pup cups along the way.

🐾❄️ Frosty Is Learning She Can Just Be a Dog ❄️🐾

Frosty came to us terrified.

She arrived with her two daughters, and both of them have already moved on. Frosty is still here.

At around 2 years old, Frosty is spayed, heartworm negative, and ready for a home of her own. She is quiet, gentle, low energy, and very easy to overlook in a busy shelter.

But once she gets away from the kennel environment, you start to see more of who she really is.

Volunteers have watched her gain confidence little by little. On walks, especially once she hits the trails, she starts to relax. No pulling. No jumping. No barking. Just Frosty taking everything in and figuring out that she is allowed to enjoy herself.

She also did amazing at one of our recent adoption events. She jumped right into the car, rode well in the backseat, walked around, relaxed in the sun, ate plenty of treats, and soaked up all the attention she could get.

Those are the moments where Frosty really starts to show us how far she has come.

She still looks up for reassurance sometimes, almost like she is asking, “Is this okay?”

And we really want her to learn that yes, it is.

Sniff the grass. Feel the breeze. Stretch out in the sun. Take the treat. Lean into the attention.

Just be a dog.

Frosty would do best in a home with no other pets, where she can settle in at her own pace and finally have the space to keep becoming the confident girl we are starting to see.

🐾🏴‍☠️ Meet Flynn Orbit 🏴‍☠️🐾

Yes, his name really is Flynn Orbit.

Two different volunteers came up with two very good names for him, and instead of choosing between them, we did the obvious thing and kept both.

Honestly, it fits him.

Flynn Orbit is around 2 years old, weighs about 66 pounds, and has been with us for almost six weeks. He is one of those dogs who somehow manages to be playful, goofy, affectionate, and an absolute cuddle bug all at once.

On his Doggy Day Out, Flynn made it very clear that he likes being close to his people. He sought out attention, leaned himself right into people’s legs for pets, happily accepted triple pets from the pet store crew, and even curled up in someone’s lap on the floor.

He is also a great car rider, takes treats gently, and seems eager to please and learn. He can be strong on leash when he first gets out, but once he burns off some energy, he settles in nicely.

Flynn has also seemed very interested in kids and playful around other dogs, and one volunteer summed him up perfectly in three words: loving, playful, and sweet.

And after Trunk-or-Treat, we learned one more very important fact about Flynn Orbit.

He is apparently a Pirate fan. 💜🏴‍☠️

Flynn has been waiting long enough for someone to notice that the handsome dog with the mismatched eyes is also a really good dog underneath all that good-looking nonsense.

Someone is going to hit the jackpot with this one.

🎃🐾 Thank You for Showing Up for Us 🐾🎃

We wanted to take a minute to say thank you to everyone who came out for Trunk-or-Treat.

There were decorated trunks, costumes, candy, kids running from stop to stop, local groups and businesses showing up for us, and so many people who helped make the afternoon feel like an actual community event.

We are especially grateful to everyone who volunteered their time, helped with the dogs, decorated, handed out candy, and jumped in wherever they were needed.

And of course, our shelter dogs got to be part of the fun too.

For them, it meant time out of their kennels, new people to meet, extra attention, plenty of love, and yes, a few very important pup cups along the way.

Thank you to everyone who came, participated, volunteered, supported us, or helped make the day happen.

We really do appreciate you showing up for our animals and for Pitt County Animal Services.

🐾❤️ That Sissy Smile ❤️🐾

There are some dogs who just look happy to see you, and then there is Sissy.

Sissy is around 4 years old, about 50 pounds, and listed as a Pit mix. She is incredibly sweet, soft, friendly, and a total love bug. And somehow, no matter what she is doing, that big smile seems to show up right along with her.

Looking at Sissy, we cannot help but wonder how much of her life has been spent taking care of everyone else. How many babies has she raised? Has she ever had someone who spoiled her, cuddled her, and made sure she knew she was the one being taken care of?

We may never know all of Sissy’s story, but we do know what she is like now.

She is thankful for every bit of attention she gets. She loves affection. She lights up when someone spends time with her. And she has one of those faces that makes it pretty hard not to smile back.

Sissy has spent enough time giving love.

We would really like to see her be the one getting spoiled for a change.

🦸🐾 Weston Wants to See You Saturday 🐾🦸

Weston is suited up, candy bucket ready, and officially waiting on the rest of you.

This Saturday, October 24, we’re hosting Trunk-or-Treat at Pitt County Animal Services from 1:00–4:00 PM, and we would love to see a big crowd come out.

Bring the kids in costume, stop by the decorated trunks, grab some candy, and spend part of the afternoon with us. Some of our shelter dogs will also be out enjoying the event, meeting people, and getting a little extra attention outside of their kennels.

The event is free and open to the community, so come by, make the rounds, and help us give these dogs a fun afternoon too.

We do ask that personal pets stay home for this event.

Weston has already committed to the Superman role. Now he just needs plenty of people to come out and make the afternoon worth dressing up for.

We are running low on a few things this week, and paper towels are at the top of the list. With the amount of cleaning that happens around here every single day, they disappear faster than you would think.

We also have a few items on our Amazon Wishlist that help us with everyday animal care, including replacement grooming blades, kitten formula, goat milk powder, and soft dog treats.
