🐾 RAVEN HAS BEEN WAITING OVER A YEAR! 🐾

💔 In rescue since January 2023... and still no interest. Let’s change that.

Meet Raven – a 3-year-old Labrador/Staffy mix with a heart full of love and a quirky soul that just wants a place to call home. 🖤

✨ 45 lbs of loyal love
✨ House-trained & ready to move in
✨ LOVES her trampoline (yes, it comes with her!)
✨ Dog-selective, but A+ with mature kids (12+)
✨ Craves structure, kindness & play
✨ Smart, sweet, and just waiting for someone to SEE her

She was abandoned when her family moved, but Raven never gave up hope. She's affectionate, spirited, and adores her people—but needs a confident, experienced adopter who understands strong, intelligent breeds. 🐶

🏡 Raven’s Perfect Home:
✅ 6-foot fenced yard
✅ No other pets (unless very slow intro)
✅ Calm, predictable routine
✅ Someone who believes in second chances

📍 Located in Lillington, NC

✅ Fully vetted & ready to meet her forever human

Raven has been overlooked for far too long. Please share or apply to adopt at: https://crisisdogsnc.org/dog/raven-3/

🐾 Meet Pier – The Sweet, Snuggly Pup Who’s Ready for His Happily Ever After 🐾

Pier is only 9 months old, 30 lbs, and already knows how to be the perfect companion. This terrier mix is house-trained, crate-trained, leash-trained, and full of love.

💛 Why Pier Will Steal Your Heart:
✨ Gentle, resilient, and affectionate – a true cuddle bug
✨ Great with kids and other friendly dogs
✨ Playful without being over the top
✨ Loves walks, little adventures, and curling up next to you afterward
✨ Friendly with everyone he meets

Pier’s life didn’t start easy, but you’d never know it by the way his tail wags the moment you walk in the room. He melts into your arms during snuggle time and has a gentle, easygoing personality that makes him fit right in anywhere.

He’s looking for a loving home where he can keep building his strength, share his joy, and finally feel safe forever. A yard would be nice, but it’s not a must—what Pier really wants is you.

🐕 Pier is ready. Are you?

💜🐾 A huge THANK YOU to our wonderful friends / Mosa Pet Spa Resort & Boutique for pampering sweet Tribbie! 🐾💜

At just 1 year old and 18 lbs, Tribbie is a Cocker Spaniel / Miniature Poodle mix who’s the perfect blend of sweet and silly. This toy-obsessed cutie is full of puppy charm, loves car rides and walks, and is always ready for fun with his favorite humans. 💛

🐾 Great with dogs (best with playful pups his size)
🐾 Good with cats
🐾 Kid-friendly (may be a bit too bouncy for tiny kiddos)
🐾 Affectionate, social, and always excited to meet new friends
🐾 Medium-high energy – the perfect adventure buddy

Tribbie is still working on his house training and leash skills, but he’s eager to learn with a patient, loving family by his side. He doesn’t need a fenced yard, but he does need plenty of playtime and exercise to keep his happy tail wagging.

This little guy is all about joy, love, and play. If you’re looking for a fun, affectionate best friend who will bring laughter into your days, Tribbie is your pup! 🐕💖

🐾 Tips & Tricks Tuesday: Potty Training Your Pup 🐾

Potty training can feel like a big challenge, but with patience and consistency, your pup will get the hang of it! Here are some helpful tips to make the process easier:

✅ Stick to a Schedule – Take your dog out first thing in the morning, after meals, naps, and playtime. Consistency is key!
✅ Choose a Spot – Use the same outdoor spot each time so your pup associates it with bathroom breaks.
✅ Praise & Reward – Celebrate success with treats and lots of love right after they go outside.
✅ Watch for Signs – Sniffing, circling, or whining? That’s your cue to head out!
✅ Be Patient – Accidents happen. Never punish—just clean up and keep training positive.

Remember: Patience + Consistency = Success! 💪🐶✨

🐾❤️ ADOPTABLE: Meet Cherry – Your Sassy, Loyal Shadow! ❤️🐾

Looking for a devoted little sidekick who’s equal parts spunky and sweet? 🍒 Meet Cherry, a 9-year-old Miniature Pinscher with BIG personality packed into 14 lbs of adorable! She’s playful, cuddly, and fiercely loyal to her people—especially her chosen favorite. 👑

✨ Why Cherry’s a Total Gem:
🐶 House-trained (uses p*e pads + goes outside!)
🦴 Loves toys, bones, and stroller rides
🛋️ A+ lap dog with serious velcro energy
🐾 Good with submissive dogs – or happy to be the only diva
👑 Bossy in the cutest way – she's got opinions!
💡 Smart, food-motivated, and loves structure
🦽 Has limited mobility but gets around like a champ

Cherry is looking for a calm, adult-only home where she can be spoiled like the royalty she is 👑. She’s got a bit of a wobble and does best in a home that can accommodate her needs—think rugs instead of slick floors, ramps instead of stairs, and of course, someone who’s always down for couch cuddles and stroller strolls. 🛋️🌿

She’s low-maintenance but high on love. 💕 If you’ve got room in your heart (and your lap), Cherry might just be the loyal best friend you’ve been dreaming of.

💌 Apply to adopt her at www.crisisdogsnc.org and give this quirky queen the forever home she deserves!

🐾✨ Meet Blackie – the sweetest little pup with a big heart waiting to shine! ✨🐾

This 2-year-old, 20lb Chihuahua mix is a gentle soul who just needs a little patience and love to blossom into the loyal, affectionate companion he’s meant to be. 💕

🐶 Affectionate once he feels safe
🍖 Food-motivated (training is a breeze with treats!)
🐕 Gets along well with other dogs
🚗 Wonderful car companion
🏡 Calm, easygoing play style

Blackie is crate-trained, working on his house training, and has zero aggression. While he hasn’t met kids or cats yet, his sweet and gentle personality suggests he could do well with respectful older children.
