Louis
Hi there!
My name is Louis and I’m a thirteen year old mini Poodle. I'm polite, easygoing, and affectionate, and I simply want a calm, loving home where I can enjoy my golden years in comfort. I enjoy being the center of attention, so I would be the ideal companion for a retired person or someone who works from home.
Here’s some fun facts about me:
-
I’m a bed-sleeping pro! I’m crate trained, but I also enjoy sleeping next to my human. All I need is a little bench to help me up.
-
I enjoy leisurly strolls and casually patrolling my yard.
-
I’m great with kids! I prefer not to be picked up, but I like being around respectful children.
-
I’m perfectly behaved when left home along. While I prefer to be with my people, I’m a low maintenance guy, so I can entertain myself while you run errands.
-
I like other dogs, but I don’t pay them much attention. I prefer human affection!
All I really want in life is a soft bed, a calm home, and a person who doesn’t mind a tiny sleeping buddy curled up beside them every night. Could I be the senior friend you’ve been looking for?
Louis is a rescue with Crisis Dogs NC. He was diagnosed with cardiomegaly (which has improved with medication) and a grade 4 heart murmur which he takes daily meds for. Reminder: these medications may be covered by his sponsorship! He does well with dogs and children over age 6. He has not been tested with cats yet, but his laid-back personality indicates that he would likely be fine. He is currently located in Archer Lodge, NC.

NBA
Hi, friends,
My name is NBA and I'm a slam dunk! I'm a 9 year old male chihuahua weighing in at around 7 pounds, and I'm ready to be the superstar companion you've always wanted. I’m a loving little guy and very handsome to boot. Just look at my perky little nose!
I was rescued from a hoarding situation, but I was shown love before things got out of control. In fact, my foster mom says I’m the biggest cuddler on Earth! I warm up to new people quickly and will roll over for belly scratches.
I would do best in a home where either my people are home most of the time or where there is another small dog to be my companion. I can absolutely be home alone, but I do get a little stressed if it's all day/every day when I don't have a friend to keep me company.
All I need is a loving family that I can shower with kisses and cuddles. Will you take me home?
NBA is from Chihuahua Rescue & Transport South East. He’s neutered, microchipped, heartworm negative and up to date on his vaccinations. He has a grade 5 heart murmur, so he’s not medically cleared for a full dental treatment. To address dental concerns, he gets antibiotics one week out of each month. He is also on Pimobendan and Furosemide daily.
*Remember, his sponsorship can offset the cost of these prescriptions!

Sadie
Hi there,
My name is Sadie and I am a kind and loving 13-year-old girl. I’ve spent my life as a committed companion, until my owner was recently moved to an assisted care facility. All I’m looking for is a cozy home and a loving person who can provide a soft place to land.
A little bit about me; I’m healthy overall, aside from mild arthritis, and I like to take it easy. While I enjoy short walks, my favorite activity is to lay quietly and enjoy a pat on the head and a scratch behind the ears. I get along with other dogs, but I prefer calm canine companions as I can be overwhelmed by young and active pups. I would also be happy as an only-dog.
I would make the perfect companion for someone looking for a relaxed, easy-going dog. Do you have room in your home and heart for an old girl like me?
Sadie is a rescue from Fairytale Farm Animal Sanctuary. She’s not currently on any medications and she’s been spayed and vaccinated. Due to her arthritis, she prefers minimal stairs, but gets around fine otherwise.

Megan
Do you like your senior dogs with a touch of sass? You’ve come to the right place!
Hi, friends! My name is Megan and I’m a charming Golden Retriever mix and I’m here to prove that age is just a number. I’m an energetic and kind-hearted 10-years-young girl and I’m always up for a quick walk or play session. I love a good adventure, and I get along with most dogs.
I’ve got a couple of bad habits (hey, nobody’s perfect!) but you can teach this old dog new tricks. My foster mom says I’m a fast learner and eager to please. I’ve already learned to sit, come, and walk politely on a leash. I love my crate, and I sleep soundly through the night so everyone in the house can get their beauty sleep.
Are you looking for a fun-loving companion who’s happy to join you for a walk in the park or a snooze on the couch? I’m the girl for you!
Megan is a 10-year-old Golden Retriever Mix from Triad Golden Retriever Rescue. She’s currently working through some behavioral issues including chewing and “taking herself for walks.” However, she’s clever and good-natured and will make a wonderful playmate. Megan will thrive in an accommodating family with a fenced-in yard.
Due to an influx of new fosters, Triad Golden Retriever Rescue is not accepting new adoption applications from the public at this time. HOWEVER, you are interested in adopting Megan, please reach out to clewis@vintagefur.org and we can send you a personal application link!
Hewey
Hi, everybody!
My name is Hewey. I arrived at Red Dog Farm after being airlifted out of Asheville in 2024 following Hurricane Helene. I had several medical issues and underwent two major surgeries. The great news? I made an incredible recovery! I may be an older guy, but I’m a loveable goofball once I get to know you!
I’m a wonderful playmate with other dogs and I'm gentle with puppies. I’ll make a wonderful addition to your family. I've shown remarkable resilience and I'm excited to start my new life with my forever family. I’m ready to be your best friend. I just need you to bring you home!
Hewey is a mixed breed, estimated at 8 years old. He is generally healthy aside from typical "old guy" ailments which are easily managed with daily meds and a prescription diet (these can be covered by his sponsorship!).
