Meet Rosie!



Rosie was 1 of 2 tiny puppies to come into the shelter in late February 2011 when it was freezing and snowing outside.  Rosie was fostered by a 1L, Leah, and then transported to her new home in Lake Tillery, North Carolina, when Leah went home for Spring Break at the beginning of March.  Rosie found a forever home with her new best friend, Drew (in the picture above).  We love that our list of success stories is growing so quickly! :)

Meet Bandit!

Meet Bandit!
Meet Bandit! Bandit was found in pretty bad shape, and a law student, Donna, found it in her heart to take Bandit in to foster. It wasn't long before she and her family fell in love with Bandit, and he found his forever home! Bandit now lives in TN.  He is now the middle dog with an older brother - a 9 year old Beagle/Jack Russell mix and a younger brother -a 4 month old German Shepherd.  He gets along great with everyone - including the two cats! He Loves to be under a blanket to sleep.  Anytime anyone sits down with a blanket, he jumps on them and waits for them to let him under or starts to dig.  He sleeps under three blankets with the youngest daughter in the family all night and curls up in the oldest daughter's sweatshirt (while she's wearing it) to nap!  He is very sweet natured, loves everyone, and if you even glance his way his tail wags so hard his whole lower half moves.  His dislocated hip has healed unbelievably well.  Although he favors that leg on occasion and sits a little awkwardly, he runs on it and uses it and it has grown and developed muscle.  He is doing really well and we are so happy to have him!
