Meet Chance

Chance is a black lab/hound mix that was found at a worksite in G'boro a couple weeks ago. He unfortunately didn't have a microchip so... a keeper he became! Don't let him fool you, while he enjoys hanging out with his foster brothers and sisters, he's really hopeful for his own forever home. Chance loves his people and wants to be with them constantly. If he can't see you, he'll let you know he's looking for you!

Chance had a minor soft tissue injury on his rear leg but this will heal and he'll be good as new. He's also heartworm positive. He'll be on Heartgard for three months then his blood will be rechecked. It may be that this will rid his body of the worms or it may take a more aggressive injection therapy. We'll know more in two more months.

Chance is ~12 months old and full of puppy energy. I'm sure more photos will follow! He's too handsome not to share!



Raleigh the puppy





Raleigh is a 7-week old dane puppy who has already had two surgeries in his short few weeks of life. He was born with glaucoma so severe that his right eye had to be removed. He also had a procedure due to a herniated umbilical. Raleigh had a second procedure on his eye not even a week after the first. It looks much better now and he is full of spunk and energy! Raleigh will be adopted when he is 12-weeks old by someone in North Carolina. Til then he's enjoying playing with his foster brothers and sisters!
