šŸ’• Happy, Happy, Adoption Day! šŸ’•

Hi allā€¦..itā€™s Cricket. I am thrilled to share the news I found my forever home yesterday. I am adopted!

I am pictured with my wonderful new Mom and my canine brother, Rubble. I absolutely refused to put my ears up for my picture. We had a great first night. I had a big day and slept soundly, but I was ready to go this morning! I love exploring my fenced in yard. Of course it will take some time for Rubble and me to get used to each other. I couldnā€™t understand why he was running around like a possessed dog with his toys this morning. Weā€™ll figure it out. Mom sure does have a nice lap to lay on. Sheā€™s been so gentle and patient. I can feel a lot of spoiling in my future. Bring it on! That stray life was rough and Iā€™m so happy I never have to go back to it.

I am so thankful for all the PNK followers sharing my post and cheering me on. You all are awesome! I also want to thank everyone who put in an application for me. I really appreciate you wanting to give me a good home. As always, we are extremely grateful for all the PNK supporters for making yet another shelter dogs dream come true! We canā€™t do it without you!

I see Rubble outside sniffing something so of course I have to go investigate. Iā€™ve got to find the good stuff first! šŸ˜„

Hereā€™s to a long, happy, and healthy life together!
Love, Cricket

Hi everyone!

My name is Tawny and I recently joined the PNK family. My paperwork reads I am an approximate 6 month old female small mixed breed. I weigh 5 lbs. Little me was found as a stray, taken to a shelter, and no one came for me.

In foster care so far, I have been cautious but very sweet and playful. I LOVE to be held and just wiggle as close to you as I can get. I shed very little. We are working on house training and walking on a leash. I do great with other dogs and am very submissive. Iā€™m a lover and not one to argue. Of course I am ā€¦..everything is bigger than me! šŸ˜ƒ I love my toys, affection, and just running around looking cute. Gosh, I really am cute arenā€™t I?

My spay, exam, and screenings are scheduled for next Tuesday, Nov. 19th. I will be ready to join you soon after. Applications can be found on our website or at the top of this page. You can always email/message us and we will send you a link to the application. I am being fostered in Kernersville, NC.

Please share!
Love, Tawny

ā¤ļø ADOPTED ā¤ļø

Hi allā€¦.its Cricket. I am happy to report I did great with my spay today! I donā€™t feel terribly bad either. There was a lot going on so my attention was everywhere.

My exam found no issues and all my screenings were good. I was aged 4-6 years and weighed in at 13.1 pounds.

Now home to recover and I would love to say then on to my forever home, but I donā€™t have one to go to. Foster Mom is really puzzled by this. I am friendly to everyone, housetrained, shed little to none, do well with other dogs, calm, very loving, and a total lap baby. Just look at this pretty face!

Can you please share so my family can find me?
Many thanks,
Love, Cricket

šŸ¶ Happy Adoption Update! šŸ¶.

Hi everyone!

Itā€™s Eggnog or Buddy now. Some of you will remember me. It was approximately this time last year I became part of the PNK family. Like most, I came to PNK terribly matted. It was not until I was groomed we found a knot on my front leg. When it was analyzed, it was malignant. Butā€¦..

I just had my one year exam and no cancer! I have scar tissue, but no cancer! I was so excited to share this incredible news with everyone! My doctor said I was doing great and I donā€™t have to come back for a whole year! We were doing every 6 months. Iā€™ve put on a few pounds but thatā€™s OK. šŸ˜œ

I want to thank everyone again for the prayers and the well wishes that were sent throughout this journey. They meant a lot to me. Iā€™m going to be just fine!

I have to say it one more timeā€¦. I am cancer free!
Love, Buddy ( Eggnog)

Hi allā€¦.its Cricket. I had my bath and feel soooo much better! Plus, I got my long nails trimmed. Many thanks to our wonderful friend Jennifer at All Things Dogs for my spa day!

For those who may not have met me yet: I am a 4-6 year old female terrier mix. I weigh around 13 pounds.

My foster Mom says I am just the best girl. I am so sweet, friendly, and calm. I am low energy and shed little to none. I just want to snuggle and be with you. I go to the door when I need to potty. I get along well with other dogs, but prefer calm ones like me. I enjoy going on walks and then coming back and crashing on the couch with you. Iā€™m super smart too and love to please. Plus, give me all the belly rubs you got!

I am now ready for my spay, exam, and screenings next Tuesday, Nov. 12th. Iā€™ll be ready to join you soon after. Applications can be found on our website, at the top of this page, or you can email/message us, and we will send you a link to the application. I am being fostered in Kernersville, NC.

šŸ• Happy, Happy, Adoption Day! šŸ•

Hi allā€¦..itā€™s Samantha. I am thrilled to share the great news I am in my forever home. I am adopted!

I guess you can tell Iā€™m a Mamaā€™s girl. I do have a great Dad, a younger human friend, and 2 beautiful canine siblings. A few pics of us together will be in the comments. We are a great family, but I am tending to stick closer to Mom. I am still pretty timid. Well, very timid.

Itā€™s taking a little time to adjust, but thatā€™s true with anything. I am playing with my toys and eating like a champ. Mom bought me a super chew toy I love. I like to explore in our fenced in backyard. But, my absolute favorite time is our walks around the neighborhood. I actually barked at some people! On our walks is when I feel the most confident. I am coming out of my shell a little more each day. It will just take time. My family is fully committed to me no matter how long it takes!

I want to send out a huge thank you to my wonderful Foster family for laying the foundation that all humans are not bad and scary. I will love you always! Many thanks to everyone who put in an application for me. I heard there were a lot! PNK and me also want to thank all of our incredible supporters for helping terrified little dogs like me find hope and a new life. A great life!

Iā€™m keeping my name. I like it!

Hereā€™s to a long, happy, and healthy life together!
Love, Samantha

Hi everyone!

My name is Cricket and I recently joined the PNK family. I am a 4-6 year old female terrier mix. I weigh around 13 pounds. I was found as a stray, taken to a shelter, and no one came for me.

I am a bit disheveled, and in need of a good bath. We will be visiting our wonderful friend Jennifer at All Things Dogs soon for a spa day.

In foster care so far, I have been very sweet, friendly and calm. I shed little to none. I go to the door when I need to potty. I do well with other dogs. I have such a pleasant personality I believe I could get along with anyone! I am also intelligent, obedient, and love to be with you. My foster Mom says I am just all around a great baby and snuggler! Plus, what a pretty face!

My spay, exam, and screenings are scheduled for next Tuesday, Nov. 19th. Iā€™ll be able to join you soon after. Applications can be found on our website, at the top of this page, or you can email/message us, and we will send you a link to the application. I am being fostered in Kernersville, NC.

šŸ• Happy, Happy, Adoption Day! šŸ•

Hi allā€¦.its Amber. I am thrilled to share the news with all of you I am in my forever home. I am adopted!

I am pictured with my wonderful new Mom and Dad. This picture shows how comfortable I was from day one. I have the best parents any dog could ask for. Talk about prepared! My Mom had bought me all kinds of neat things before I even arrived. Even the most important thingā€¦ā€¦toys!!! Lots and lots of toys! Plus, treats! They also bought some steps so I could get up on the bed, sofa, and bench by the window. Now I can watch for anything that moves. I have a feeling I am going to be very spoiled and you wonā€™t hear any complaints from me. I love our walks around our beautiful neighborhood, playing fetch, and lots of snuggle time.

This former shelter dog could not be happier. I came to PNK a matted, filthy mess. Look at me now! Many thanks to all of our awesome supporters for helping make this little girls dream of a forever home come true.

I have a new nameā€¦..Mitzi.

Hereā€™s to a long, healthy, and happy life together!
Love, Amber ( Mitzi)

Hi allā€¦.. itā€™s Tabitha. Iā€™m putting on my Iā€™m a tough girl face and standing tall. But, I do feel a little ruff. Well, maybe more than a little.

However, my spay went well, my exam found no issues, and all my screenings were good.

*SOMETHING IMPORTANT*: I was aged 1-2 years, NOT 6 months. I am a big girlā€¦..an adult. I weighed in at 7.3 pounds. Foster Mom feeds me well! I also had a couple of retained baby teeth pulled. I was treated for tapeworms prior to my surgery. My intestinal parasite screen was all clear.

Now, home to rest. Darn, no playing. Whatā€™s a girl to do? I guess a girl could take a nap before dinner and meds time.

Have a great weekend, everyone!
Love,Tabitha

Hi allā€¦..itā€™s Tabitha. Wow, I am whiter and my cut is all evened up. I think I turned out pretty cute. Many thanks to our incredible friend Jennifer at All Things Dogs for making me look and feel so much better!

For those who may not have met me yet: my paperwork reads I am an approximate 1-2 year old Yorkie mix. Maybe Maltese? Havanese? Both? I weigh around 5 pounds. I shed little to none.

In Foster care, after being initially timid, my big personality is coming out. I have been friendly with everyone I meet, including children. I love other dogs! Especially ones that love to play! I use the doggie door to go potty. Iā€™m not perfect with house training yet, but much better. Iā€™m also doing pretty well with my leash training, as I had no idea what that or a harness was. I DO NOT like being crated. I will bark and howl. That could very much be because in my past it is suspected I lived in a crate 24/7. I love to play with my toys and just to play in general.

I am now ready for my spay, exam, and screenings this Friday, Nov. 1st. I will be ready to join you the week after. Applications can be found on our website, at the top of this page, or you can email/message us, and we will send you a link to the application. I am being fostered in Kernersville, NC.

Hi everyone!

My name is Tabitha and I recently joined the PNK family. My paperwork reads I am an approximate 1-2 year old female Yorkie mix. I weigh around 5 pounds. I was found on the side of a busy interstate, taken to a shelter, and no one came for me.

The picture on the upper left is how I came to the shelter. You can see the filth. I also had f***s and urine caked all in my hair. The nice folks at the shelter cleaned me up a bit. They gave me a much-needed bath and cut a lot of my matted hair. I need to be shaped up so we will be visiting our wonderful friend Jennifer at All Things Dogs soon.

PNK doesnā€™t know much about me yet. I do love other dogs and of course I love to play. We have begun working on house training and I have already figured out the doggie door! Iā€™m a pretty smart gal! šŸ˜œ I can be a little timid as if humans have not been kind to me in the past. However, I am sweet and young so I will learn to let that go.

My spay, exam, and screenings are scheduled for this Friday, Nov. 1st. I will be ready to join you the following week. PNK will provide more information as we all get to know each other. Applications can be found on our website, at the top of this page, or you can email/message us, and we will send you a link to the application. I am being fostered in Kernersville, NC.

Good morning, everyone!

Itā€™s Samantha. I told Amber to go ahead and do her report first because I was simply not feeling it yesterday. This morning is better. I had my breakfast, took my meds, and this is what I am going to be doing for a while.

I got a great report too! My exam found no issues and all my screenings were good! I was aged 1- 1.5 years and weighed in at 10.4 pounds. Iā€™m a healthy little girl even though I may not feel it right now.

I know PNK is no longer taking applications for me, but I really wanted to thank everyone for wanting to give me a good home. PNK will email everyone next week of a decision.

Have a great rest of the day, everyone! Love, Samantha

ā¤ļøADOPTED ā¤ļø

Whoaā€¦. What just happened?

Hi allā€¦itā€™s Amber. I am feeling a little ruff and vocalizing it to Foster Mom. This spay stuff is no fun. We went for a nice morning drive and the next thing I know I woke up from surgery. Thatā€™s quite a day.

However, all was good news. My exam found no issues and all my screenings were good. And guess what: I was aged 2 years, not 6 years. That is much more consistent with my energy level. I weighed in at 8.1 pounds. Foster Mom feeds me good! šŸ˜Š

I admit, I am feeling a bit grumpy. I am hungry and sore. Foster Mom said I will feel much better in the morning. She said weā€™ll get through this and I have my forever home waiting on me next week. When I get home and go to sleep, I will dream of it.

Have a great weekend, everyone!
Love, Amber

Hi allā€¦.its Samantha. I had my bath and a little trim so I am all ready for my big spay day tomorrow! My coat is so shiny and soft. Many thanks to our wonderful friend Jennifer at All Things Dogs for helping me feel so much better. I am also getting in the Halloween spirit, licking my lips in anticipation of all the delicious doggie cookies I will be getting!

Look what I have on! A harness and a leash. I am doing so well with my leash training. Plus, I am now looking up for my pictures! My confidence is growing every day. I am also doing great with my house training. My foster Mom takes me out a lot, but I am starting to go to the door when I need to potty. I have had no accidents! I am very affectionate and loving all the attention and cuddles I get.

Due to the large amount of applications PNK has already received for me, they are no longer accepting any new ones. I really appreciate everyone wanting to give me a good home.

Stay tuned for my medical report! We think everything will be great!
Love, Samantha

šŸ• Happy, Happy, Adoption Day! šŸ•

Hi allā€¦.its Olivia. Just look at little me! Guess where I am? You got it! I am in my forever home. I am adopted!

I am pictured with my wonderful new Mom and my sweet canine sister, Sadie. I am the one Momā€˜s holding. Sadie and I became instant friends. We run really, really fast in our large fenced in yard. Inside, we have so many toys! Everyone who has visited, said I was the sweetest little girl and they just loved me. And I loved them right back. Lots of spoiling going on here!

I have learned the world is not so scary and my timidness is fading away. I have learned so many new things. However, I prefer to be carried as opposed to walking on a leash. šŸ˜

Thereā€™s a picture of what I looked like when I first came to PNK in the comments. I was pitiful. Filthy, matted, didnā€™t know anything and was terrified of everything. Iā€™ve come a long way. Iā€™m proud of myself.

I want to thank everyone who put in an application for me. I heard there were a lot! I really appreciate you wanting to give me a good home. PNK and me especially want to thank all of our wonderful supporters for making this former little shelter dogā€™s dream of a forever home come true!

Iā€™m keeping my name.ā€¦ā€¦ I like it!

Hereā€™s to a long, healthy, and happy life together!

Hi everyone!

My name is Samantha and I recently joined the PNK family. I am an approximate 1-2 year old female small mixed breed. I weigh around 11 lbs. I lived in an apartment complex and my people moved and just left me there. They said I hung around for about 3 weeks just eating whatever people threw my way. Then someone took me to the shelter. I was very happy PNK got me out.

Iā€™m in need of a good bath so we will probably be visiting our great friend Jennifer at All Things Dogs soon. It will more than likely be the first bath Iā€™ve ever had.

In foster care, Iā€™ve been a very timid girl initially, but warm up quickly and turn into pure sweetness. Iā€™m also shy and always look down at picture time! I donā€™t appear to have had any training. But, Iā€™m very smart! I am using the doggie door to go potty outside. I keep my extra large crate very clean at night. I am submissive with other dogs. I prefer no confrontations. I overheard I was going to learn to walk on a leash. I wonder what thatā€™s all about? I guess Iā€™ll find out. I donā€™t seem to shed much, if any. I sure do love attention. Actually, I crave it. Not to brag, but gosh I am a pretty little girl!

My spay, exam, and screenings are scheduled for this Friday, Oct. 25th. I will be able to join you soon after. Applications can be found on our website, at the top of this page, or you can email/message us, and we will send you a link to the application.

Project No Kill Canine Rescue

Project No-Kill Animal Shelter, Inc. is currently a ā€œfoster basedā€ organization and rescue group for small breed dogs in the Triad, North Carolina. Our organization seeks to eventually build a no-kill animal sanctuary for neglected, abused, and abandoned dogs in the Kernersville, N.C. area. In addition to providing transitional housing for dogs waiting for a loving home, we also plan to incorporate educational programs and companion animal services to members of our community after the shelter is constructed.

We are currently seeking foster families to help save dogs now while continuing to work towards our goal of building the sanctuary. We are also looking for volunteers to help transport the dogs, to assist at events, and perform other tasks for the organization. Our volunteer and foster applications are available in electronic format (see ā€œAbout Usā€).

As we continue to work towards our goal we have multiple dogs in foster homes waiting for their own loving home. You can see the dogs currently available here: https://www.pnknc.org/adoptable-dogs.html

The adoption application can be found here https://www.pnknc.org/adoption-fostering-and-surrender.html. The final adoption fee is $175.00 which includes, spay/neuter, up-to-date vaccines, microchip, f***l screening, and any other medical needs necessary before adoption.
