bttt for more animals in need of homes

theres a purebred basset hound
an adorable black and tan shep mix that i would love to take in
and many other highly adoptable animals

9/28/2006 3:20:48 PM

Ok...so I work in the Lab Animal Research facility at the Vet School and we have a dog that is looking for a home. It doesn't happen often that the animals used in the facility are able to be adopted (as most are euthanized) so we're tryin' real hard to get her a home.

Her name is Bubbles. She's a border collie mix (she's taller and a bit bigger than one, but looks just like one). She's approx. 5 years old, up to date on all shots, and not spayed (i could see if the vet school would do this if anyone was interested in adopting her). She's perfectly healthy, she was mainly used for teaching labs by the vet students so she doesnt have like 5 legs or 3 eyes from wacky experiments. The only catch is....she is dog agressive and needs to go to a home without any other dogs. SHe's super sweet to humans though!

If you, or someone you know, or a rescue group you may volunteer with....could help Bubbles out, it would be awesome! Anymore questions feel free to pm or email me kmbabb@ncsu.edu

That Rotti is nice


if anyone comes across a small dog in a shelter or that just needs a new home let me know.
My Granndmother recently lost her 2 elderly dogs (a Yorkie and a Scottish Terrier) and she's been lonely without any company.
She'd like anything small (under 25 pounds) and preferably over the age of 2. Breed doesn't matter.
She'd spoil it rotten and is home all day.

bttt
the vet is coming today
they're open till 7 today.
lots of great dogs in there. the 2 black lab/chow mixes are super friendly. ( i saw them on Monday)

bttt for more pups

a gorgeous full blooded pointer.
a cute shar pei mix (looks almost purebred) hard to find!
*i have one they're great dogs**

a beautiful young female yellow lab ~4-6 months. looks purebred
a chocolate lab mix (spaniel? border collie?)
a friendly goofy hound mix
and more

help get these guys out before the holidays. their time is limited! owner surrenders can be put down within a day, strays 3 days. and with the recent weather and people going out of town they fill up fast!


btw its free to get an animal from here.

11/16/2006 4:24:25 PM

i was at the wake county animal shelter about 2 weeks ago (it's where i got penny )


anyway, they had a TON of puppies there

there were 4 pitbull/great dane pups (thats what penny is)
5 or so lab mixes
what looked like a few beagle mixes
and i remember a really cute black lab mix pup

and thats what i remember, im sure there were more

don't you have to pay for the spay/neuter cost?

11/17/2006 2:56:32 PM

no the animals at franklin county ac don't receive any vet care.
so unless they are an owner-surrender with vet records they know nothing about them.
the majority of the animals that come into this shelter are intact. hence - why they have such a problem with strays... if more people in that county would spay/neuter then there wouldn't be such a problem. sad.

i've pulled close to 50 puppies and dogs from this shelter. i've been fortunate that none of them had anything seriously wrong with them. usually just whipworms or ringworms.
no heartworms or mange or anything costly to treat.

there is a vet clinic in wake forest that is VERY reasonably priced! (North Wake Animal Hospital)
last time i brought in 4 puppies that i'd just pulled - it cost me $70 for all 4 to receive their first round of shots, fecal exam, blood work, and dewormer. you can't beat that.

its about 30 minutes from Raleigh. The AC officers are real nice (for the most part). they know me by name and sight. call first to ensure the animal is still there. they put down animals every few days and the website isn't updated everyday.


one of the animals available^

bttt for more dogs.
the shelter is getting full

* 2 cute 8 wk old puppies. one is a tan lab/pitt mix and the other is a shep mix. both adorable. they were dumped at the shelter Christmas Eve. how cruel.

* a big mastiff/rott mix. looks like he's in good shape. cool dog.
* a husky mix
* black labs
* shep mixes - a long haired german shep that is gorgeous!
* 3 beagles
* an adorable small terrier mix that is good with kids (he'd be easy to place)

these guys don't have much time. it's free to pull a dog from this shelter.

http://www.petfinder.com/shelters/NC119.html

1/2/2007 1:06:33 PM

how much do those puppies cost to adopt? i'd only be able to take one

1/3/2007 11:05:24 AM

^they're free to remove from the shelter. you're still responsible for veterinary care and spaying/neutering. the shelter doesn't provide any veterinary care prior to adoption.

1/3/2007 11:20:53 AM

5 lab mix puppies came in today. many different colors. all about 7-8 wks old. look healthy

1/4/2007 10:42:30 PM

For some weird reason, I'm in the mood for a pet, but I don't think the management company would like that. My dog for over 10 years was KIDNAPPED at my parents' house a few months ago. My dad never found her body or anything... She was really sweet and smart too, which is a rare combination. I guess someone else noticed that.

1/5/2007 1:24:38 AM

^ I'm really sorry :-(... but

... please don't adopt just because you're "in the mood for a pet"

and

... how do you figure it's rare?

1/7/2007 12:34:45 AM

lol anyone who thinks they're just in the mood for a pet can babysit my 5 mo. old puppy aaaaaaaaaaanny time. haha, she's sweet & smart, but a handful!! it'll cure anyone who isn't 100% ready for a pet.


ps- i'm serious.. come play with her.. get some of this energy out!

1/7/2007 7:27:31 PM

some great dogs that need homes

SPAYED female jack russle/terrier mix. fawn and white. small and adorable. she'd be easy to find a home for. * if she is still there Thursday i'm considering pulling her (although my bf might disown me)

adorable small terrier/min pin? mix. brindle in color. very sweet. ~20 lbs or so.

lovable friendly Rhodesian Ridgeback mix.

2 beagles

beautiful purebred yellow lab female.

boxer/american staff mix male

black lab mix

a few hound and pointer mixes

2 cats and 2 kittens

the shelter is full and many of these animals are out of time. if you've been looking to adopt consider the animals at this shelter. they have a low adoption rate. I've had great luck placing dogs and puppies i've pulled from this shelter. I could help transport on Thursday if you need help.

Litter of 4 pups - 7-8 wks. shep/rott/lab mix. real cute. 2 are black and tan. 2 are tan

2 pups - few months old. both look like catahoula leopard dogs.one might have shep or husky in it. both really nice looking dogs.

(purebred) bluetick coonhound

a boxer



i'm unable to foster but can help you out with finding a rescue to sponser them and can send you to a vet who does rescue work for practically cost. i can't transport until monday but will be glad to help if you can't get there while they're open

2/15/2007 5:20:42 PM

border collie outta Georgia was just rescued today. Will be placed with a family in SC for 2 weeks but then he either needs a permanent home or another foster...still waiting to hear about his temperament and all, but anyone interested??

2/26/2007 7:20:02 PM

Frankin County is full again

a small dacshound mix. tan & white. adorable. would be EASY to find a home for
a nice yellow lab/hound mix
a (purebred) american bulldog
a bulldog mix
a nice looking young female pit bull
another pit bull
a 5 month old black lab - male - come with up to date vet records and was well taken care of by previous owners.
a cute 10 wk old dark shep mix puppy. she's really cute.
plus more


the animals here are usually only give 3 days before being euthanized. Owner surrenders can be put down the same day

it is free to pull an animal from the shelter. the animals are not looked at by a vet nor given any vaccinations so please bring it to a vet asap.

3/13/2007 10:08:48 AM

So are these dogs going to be put down in 3 days?

3/13/2007 5:25:40 PM

owner surrenders can be put down the same day they come in
strays get 3 days (in case someone claims them)
if they have space they'll hold on to all the adoptable and friendly animals they can

the vet usually comes on thursday or friday to put down animals if they are close to capacity (to make room for animals that come in over the weekend)

I recommend calling to check the status of an animal. the website isn't updated every day and the animal control officers will answer any questions you have.

3/14/2007 8:54:10 AM

http://harnettanimalcontrol.com/

Harnett County Animal Control is beyond full

It looks like a Lab breeder was shut down and all their dogs were dropped off.
TONS of Labs- most look purebred. A lot of black and yellow, 1 brown.
Litters of lab puppies, labradoodles, labxrat terrier crosses

I heard they don't even have them all listed on the site. Someone told me when they went last week that they had to have close to 80 dogs and puppies and just as many kittens!
they have 10 or 12 kittens stuffed into tiny cages without air conditioning. Some moms with tiny babies and tons of adorable 6-10 week kittens ready to go.

They charge a $20 adoption fee.
All animals that are left are put down on Wednesdays.

The shelter is easy to get to. south of fuquay. took me about 30 min to get there and i live near tryon rd.

Even if you can just pull them and foster them. Give em a bath, dewormer and post them on craigslist and you can find homes easy.

I wish I could pull some but my hands are tied. (wedding, baby on the way, buying a house)

5/7/2007 11:08:52 AM

That place really pisses me off. I do not know what excuse they have for not listing all of the available animals on the website. I have been down there enough times to tell you that if there are 10 dogs listed, there are probably 30 or more there that need homes. If you ask them about it the woman will tell you the best thing to do is call, when you call she just brushes you off the phone and tells you to come out there. It is really pathetic.

I have three used crates free to anyone who gets a dog from there today......these crates are usually $60 or more at walmart. If someone adopts/foster you can pick up a crate behind my townhouse on Kaplan just call me when your on the way back from the shelter. Please only take one if you have already picked up an animal, I want to make sure they are being used.

Any animal that is still there tonight when they close that has already been there 72 hours will be put down tomorrow. It is a very small shelter and they only give the animals 3 days to to be adopted.

Here are some pics of the crates.

There is also a full size dog crate back there that I don't have a pic of. If you need a crate call me at 673-7389. If I dont answer try a couple of time I am at the beach and do not have good reception.

5/8/2007 9:55:05 AM

Looks like a lot of pups from Harnett got pulled according to the website. but who knows what else they have there.

but
http://www.petfinder.com/shelters/NC119.html
Franklin County is full too
they have a few litter of puppies.
1 litter of shep crosses. (3)
1 litter of black lab puppies (7 or 8)
1 litter of golden ret/lab/? puppies. all blonde in color with some white. they'd be easy to find homes for.

plus a bunch of older puppies and adult dogs that need homes. There's a cute yellow lab x and a small terrier.

the first litter of 3 shep puppies were adopted but everything else needs to get out. They'll probably start putting them down tomorrow due to being full.

5/8/2007 10:52:23 AM

bttt there are around 10 kittens about 6-8 weeks old at Franklin County Animal Shelter needing rescuing!

5/21/2007 5:35:01 PM

Franklin County is full

everyone is focusing on Harnett County - which is great since they haven't put down a dog in weeks now. But Franklin County is filling up and they put down over a dozen dogs and puppies last week.

right now they have close to 20 puppies and another dozen adult dogs.
mostly lab puppies. There is a beautiful young male border collie. EASY to find a home for.
and a beautiful young female yellow lab. A cute boxer mix. plus many more.

http://www.petfinder.com/shelters/NC119.html

6/18/2007 6:32:06 AM

they are all free

however, they are not vet checked and don't receive vaccinations.

the husky is gorgeous! not that often you come across a free purebred husky

6/18/2007 4:28:45 PM

i've always wanted a husky, but i did a quick check of my upcoming budget itinerary and i dont think i could support owning a dog this year.
