Adoptable Dogs

Bradley

Bradley was rescued from a local shelter. He is about 2 years old. He is a big, strong Mastiff mix. He is a large, loving lap dog out of his enclosure, a great boy, according to our staff that work with him daily, and he definitely relaxes and enjoys himself and his people friends. He highly values people that he has bonded with. Bradley does show aggression towards new people and dogs when confined in his crate or enclosure so will need an experienced owner to help him understand he does not need to feel so anxious in such places. We do not know what happened to him in the past to create this anxiety in a confined space, but it could not have been very good, poor boy. If you are experienced with large breeds and want to help Bradley, please come meet him at the SPCA of the Triad.

Dottie

Dottie was pulled from a local shelter and is a friendly girl. She has the prettiest white fur with polka dots and the cutest black eyebrow above one eye. She is about 4 years old. Dottie loves people and enjoys making new human friends. She is good on a leash though acts a little silly from excitement the first 20 seconds outside. She loves to run and would really enjoy a fenced yard in her new home. She is athletic and appreciates a good stretch and a long walk. Dottie is smart and independent, not a clingy girl. She enjoys sharing affection with her friends. She knows how to sit on command for a tasty treat. Dottie prefers to be an only dog in her new home. She has been fine with easy going dogs when at our adoption fairs but prefers to be the only dog in a home setting. Apply online at www.triadspca.org or come meet in person at the center located at 3163 Hines Chapel Rd. Greensboro, NC 27405. We are open Tues - Fri 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM and Sat 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM and Sun 12:00 PM - 4:00 PM.

Sugar

Name: Sugar Sex: Female Age: 10 yrs Breed: Beagle/Hound mix Sugar is a 10 year old, 58.8 pound Beagle/hound mix who is a friendly girl and adores people. She seems to like everyone, though, as a mature lady, she would rather not be around active babies and little tykes in her home. She prefers well mannered grown ups. She still loves to take walks and is good on the leash unless that Beagle nose pulls her towards something that smells really great. As she is a little embarrassed to have you notice, she has put on a few extra pounds in her golden years since she really loves eating and treats, but she would be okay if you want to put her on a diet and help her trim up a bit. It is harder on senior joints to carry that weight, after all, so she would appreciate the help! She is a sweet girl and has an easy going nature, typical of what makes seniors so precious. Sugar holds her pee and poo for when it is time to go outside, no accidents in her kennel for this lady. Sugar is past her playful years so wants to be an only dog in her new home, especially since that is what she is used to. She is not that fond of other dogs anyway. Sugar is a sweetheart who really deserves a loving retirement home. She promises to love you so much and says she is not that much trouble, an easy keeper.

Cash

Cash came to us with two other dogs that were surrendered by an elderly owner who had way too many dogs. We do not know his exact age, but he is an adult and 22 pounds. Since he came from a hoarding situation, Cash had not been socialized and he arrived as a very scared pup who had no idea what to make of his new situation. He is slowly starting to understand that he does not need to be afraid of us or of going outside on a leash, a brand new experience for him. We will update you as we get to know him but he does have several needs. Cash will need a new owner experienced with very shy, unsocialized dogs. With patience, he will learn all about being a beloved pet but he needs a patient family. He will probably be best in a home with another dog that can help him learn how to be a family pet. He is used to living with dogs and being on his own is very scary. Of course, he only knew the dogs he grew up with so he needs gentle introductions and a kind, patient doggie friend. He will need a fenced yard since he is a flight risk. He is still learning that leashes are good things. If you are the kind and very patient person who is ready to turn this pups life around, please apply! Apply online at www.triadspca.org or come meet in person at the center located at 3163 Hines Chapel Rd. Greensboro, NC 27405. We are open Tues - Fri 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM and Sat 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM and Sun 12:00 PM - 4:00 PM.

Henry

Handsome Henry is a two year old pup who has a lot of fun energy and is an active boy. He is friendly to all adults and loves to make new people friends. He really enjoys going on outings to pet adoption fairs. He could use more basic training, so a little patience on his new parents part would be helpful. He does know how to sit on command and you can tell that this boy truly does yearn for and enjoy structure in his life. He appreciates guidance and feels pretty proud of himself when he is a good boy and pleases you! He does tend to resource guard so needs a confident adopter who can train him not to feel the need to do that. He loves affection and playtime and toys. He has been friendly to all new people so far here at the center and at adoption fairs, however, at about a year old in a home setting, Henry decided children just were not his thing and he came back to us to find a new home. (He was adopted from us as a little puppy.) He is a good boy in his crate, resting quietly when it is crate time here at the center. He may be okay with other dogs and a meet and greet with your dog would be a good idea to see if they like each other if you currently have a dog. Henry does fine around the other dogs at our adoption fairs though sometimes all his energy can be a bit too much for the other dogs. He is not so hot with kitties however so no cats in his new home, please. Henry is a big, active young dog who would love to have an equally active new owner who could take him for long walks and adventures. He will do really well in a family that can teach him good doggie manners. He is certainly smart and very trainable. A Gentle Leader type device will be helpful in training him not to pull on the leash. You can come meet Henry at the SPCA of the Triad. Apply online at www.triadspca.org or come meet in person at the center located at 3163 Hines Chapel Rd. Greensboro, NC 27405. We are open Tues - Fri 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM and Sat 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM and Sun 12

Sparta ADOPTION PENDING

Sparta is a wonderful 6 year old girl who was adopted from us several years ago into a family with young children. She is a friendly, kind pup who did great with everyone and made a lovely family pet, but the family had to move to a place that had breed restrictions and could not take her so she is back in rescue. She is an adorable Pit mix with big, upright ears and soulful eyes, so pretty! From certain views, she looks a bit like what might happen if you mixed a Pit with a large Boston Terrier and a Boxer! She is a very sweet, loving and gentle girl who is friendly to all. She has a happy, easy going nature and should be an easy to live with pup. She does need to be the only dog in her new home, please. She is already housetrained. Sparta is a gem – come meet her today! Apply online at www.triadspca.org or come meet in person at the center located at 3163 Hines Chapel Rd. Greensboro, NC 27405. We are open Tues - Fri 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM and Sat 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM and Sun 12:00 PM - 4:00 PM.

Cass ADOPTION PENDING

Newly arrived at the SPCA of the Triad, beautiful 3 year old Cass. More pictures and information coming soon but you are welcome to stop by and meet her in the meantime. Apply online at www.triadspca.org or come meet in person at the center located at 3163 Hines Chapel Rd. Greensboro, NC 27405. We are open Tues - Fri 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM and Sat 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM and Sun 12:00 PM - 4:00 PM.

Tucker

Tucker is a young 1 year old pup. Tucker was a bit unsure and scared in our busy center at first but he is a friendly pup who just needed a little time to figure stuff out before he could relax. Now, he is doing very well here and it turns out that he is a fun, active and playful youngster and feeling so much happier. He loves to play with toys and run around in our play yard. He likes to fetch a ball and a rope. He is good in his crate (no accidents and is quiet) and seemed a little sad at first, like he was missing his family and all that is familiar. He is a well behaved pup overall. Tucker recently went for a home visit and they said that Tucker was affectionate, playful and loves going for walks and going for car rides. He is happy with a quick 20 minute neighborhood walk or equally happy hiking the local trails with you. He does enjoy playing with other dogs in a fenced yard though does still get pretty excited since he is such a young pup (just needs a doggie friend who understands those puppy crazies). He is a smart boy who can certainly learn any command you want to teach him, just needs consistency. He did not have any potty accidents when on his home visit. Come meet Tucker and fall in love so that he can be loved in a home of his own. Apply online at www.triadspca.org

Timothy ADOPTION PENDING

Sweet little Timothy was found as a stray. He is two years old and seems to be a Chihuahua/Doxi mix. Please read his entire listing and then apply if this cutie seems like a good fit for your home! He is an awesome little guy, so full of personality. He loves to lay on your lap, or right beside you. He seems to bond thoroughly to one person so would probably be happiest and best with a single person or else a patient couple that can work with him so that he views several people as equally important to him. He seems to be house trained - only a couple of accidents and only at night. Timothy is sweet and loving most of the time, and so playful and funny. He is pretty interactive with you while playing- he likes you to throw a toy, and he will bring back to you to play. He is an adorable little boy but he can get a little scared in new situations and with new people since he is such a small boy and the world around him is so big. However, if you are kind and gentle, once he gets to know you Timothy relaxes and welcomes being loved. It does seem that maybe, in his past life, he lead a sheltered life with his owner and did not get well socialized with other people. He does react like he may have been mistreated at some time in the past, which could be why he does not like your hand over his back. He can react badly to being picked up by people he does not trust. He does need slow movements. He reacts badly to new people when his owner is holding him and answers the door; he becomes protective and over reactive so should not be held when new people arrive or are visiting. Timothy just needs a home with someone who can give him the time and stability that he needs so he learns to feel more secure. He does not like confusion , or multiple people trying to touch him. He does start growling, and then will show his teeth and try to nip when he feels scared. He is not aggressive, simply has learned to do this to cope with whatever unknown situation in his past made him feel so insecure. Timothy has such wonderful potential and it seems that in the right home, he can learn to overcome his insecurities and be his fun, loving, happy, cuddly self all of the time!! Interested in adopting? Go on our website, triadspca.org and submit an application or call us at 336-375-3222.

Ramsey ADOPTION PENDING

Ramsey is a very cute 2 and a half year old Chihuahua, maybe Doxi mix, about 13 pounds of adorable! Please note, before you fall in love with that face, that Ramsey MUST HAVE DOGGIE COMPANIONSHIP in his new home. His foster home says Ramsey really loves and needs to be part of a pack. He is a follower and needs another dog or more to guide him. He came to us with an easy going, sweet, older female dog Amanda and she definitely is his mentor and guide. Ramsey adores Amanda and we really would like for these two to be adopted into a home together. They really are best together. Sweet Ramsey is a bit of a nervous, insecure dog and he needs a new home with definite routines to help him feel comfy. His foster mom says Ramsey loves to watch family activity and be close. He may watch from a perch like the stairs until he understands, and then he loves to be close. Ramsey does not play with the children since he kind of prefers dogs to people, but he is not bothered a bit when they run around screaming and being normal kids. He likes to watch! Foster mom says that, despite his nervous nature, he actually seems to be great with chaos, enjoying observing and being near the activities. He does not really interact with the other dogs, but loves to follow them around and be close. He belongs in a pack, basically. Ramsey thinks sleeping on the big bed with family and other dogs is about the best thing in the world. He does not care for the crate and will resist walking into one, but he is more than happy to snuggle on the bed with everyone at night. He is snuggly on his own terms and likes to come up for affection on his own schedule. Being grabbed and forced onto a lap is not his cup of tea, still a bit unsettling. Ramsey has a few quirks still since he has not been settled into a new home yet. He does not like going through doorways. For some reason they kind of scare him. Following other dogs through doorways helps. His new family will need patience and to figure out a good motivator that will make him feel comfy with doorways. He is also nervous about going into a crate (probably just not used to that in his old life) but fine once he is in, and fine with coming out. With proper potty breaks, foster mom does not think he needs to be crated. He can be reactive with cats right at first, but now he snuggles with the kitties at his foster home. It is the newness that bothers him, whether it is new cats, new places, new routines, etc. Once he understands, he feels much better. He may have a poop accident if he is not walked enough to get all the routine poops out so he just needs enough yard time and walks to make sure he has had enough chances to empty himself. So, there is the long description of our sweet, timid, quirky little dude! We are praying that a kind person who falls in love with Ramseys cute face, will also find it in their hearts to welcome very sweet Amanda into their home as well. Interested in adopting? Go on our website, triadspca.org and submit an application or call us at 336-375-3222.

Lily

Lily is a sweet 3-4 year old hound mix who first came to us very pregnant. She was a good mommy and has finished raising her puppies. They have all been adopted and now it is her turn! Lily is wonderful with people and seems to love everyone. She will make a lovely only pet in a new home. However, something happened to her in the past to make her very fearful and defensive around other dogs. Maybe it had something to do with protecting a prior litter of puppies from roaming dogs, who knows. She absolutely freaks out around any other dogs. She cannot go for walks with them around. She cannot be outside in her fence and see or hear neighbor dogs. It makes her absolutely frenzied, poor girl. We have had a trainer work with her some but she definitely needs a dog savvy new owner who can help her overcome her fear of other dogs and the associated reactivity. If you have no other pets and do not need to walk, etc where she will be around other dogs, this is your girl! She would be perfectly content to love life with a new family of just humans and a lovely fenced yard. You are welcome to make an appointment to come meet her so you can see how nice she is with people. Interested in adopting? Go on our website, triadspca.org and submit an application or call us at 336-375-3222.

Gina

Gina is a lovely 10 and a half year old senior who is looking for a forever home. Ginas owner passed away several months ago and she was surrendered to a shelter. Somebody adopted Gina from there and obviously did not take care of her and recently abandoned/dumped this angel on the streets! Gina lived outside lost until a kind woman and her husband rescued her and brought Gina to us. Gina is incredibly sweet and affectionate. She loves to get tummy rubs. Gina is such a loving and resilient girl. She very much deserves a wonderful and safe home to live out the rest of her life. She is heartworm positive and will be treated. Please do not let this temporary condition keep you from applying for this very nice pup! You are welcome to call to set up an appointment to meet this lady so you can see for yourself why we think she is so adorable. Interested in adopting? Go on our website, triadspca.org and submit an application or call us at 336-375-3222.
