Hi all....it’s Benny! Words cannot describe how much better I feel let alone how much better I look! Those matts were horrible and you would not believe what Jennifer pulled out of my ear! ( Pic in comments ). I don't know why I look so sad in this picture! Many thanks to our wonderful friend Jennifer at All Things Dogs for her amazing skills in making us always look our best! It looks like I am going to be tan and white.

For those who may not have met me yet: my paperwork reads I am an approximate 5 year old male Shih Tzu mix. I weigh around 14 pounds. I do not shed.

Short recap: I am good with people, other dogs, plus children 6 years and above should be fine. I am house trained. I am also calm, love to eat, and ride well in a vehicle. I do well on a leash. I would love to have someone to lay around on the couch with along with taking walks.

I am now ready for my neuter, exam, and screenings which are scheduled for this Monday, March 24th. I will be ready to join you soon after. Applications can be found on our website or at the top of this page. I am being fostered in Kernersville, NC.

Love, Benny

Hi everyone!

My name is Benny and I recently joined the PNK family. My paperwork reads I am an approximate 5 year old male Shih Tzu mix. I weigh around 14 pounds. I was found as a stray, taken to a shelter, and no one came for me.

As you can see, I am quite a mess. I smell horrible. I am very filthy and matted, particularly my backside (A pic will be in the comments ). We will be visiting our wonderful friend Jennifer at All Things Dogs soon for a much needed bath and groom. Updated pics to come! I can't wait to see what I look like and what color I am!

In foster care so far, I have been very sweet and friendly. I am housetrained. I do well with other dogs. I'm a pretty calm fellow since I'm a little older. I am content just to lay around with you on the couch. If you want to see me dance with enthusiasm, get out the treat bag! I love my food. I walk well on a leash and riding in a vehicle. I'm just an all-around good little guy who would like to find someone to chill out with along with taking a few walks. Children 6 years and up would be fine.

My neuter, exam, and screenings are scheduled for this Monday, March 24th. I will be ready to join you soon after. Applications can be found on our website or at the top of this page. I am being fostered in Kernersville, NC.

Love, Benny

Hi all...it Aspen. I wanted to let everyone know I have recovered from my neuter surgery and the wound on my neck has completely healed. My hair is starting to grow back after my sedation shave. Before you know it, I'll need a shape up. It's now time for me to find my forever home.

Everyone who has met me describes me as super sweet! I do love everyone. I also love to give and receive attention. It doesn't seem like I've had much in my past. I'm fine with other dogs, but mostly I just play with my toys. I love to hoard them all! We are working on house training. I love food! Some other words to describe me would be playful, goofy, energetic, and adventurous. A fenced in yard would be ideal so I can explore and play.

For those who may not have met me yet: I am a 3-4 year old neutered male Maltese mix. I weigh 13 lbs. I do not shed.

There are so many things I want to see and experience. Since I'm such a friendly guy and don't bark much, we could go lots of places together! I'm up for it! Applications can be found on our website or at the top of this page. I am being fostered in Kernersville, NC.

Love, Aspen 🌳

💕 Happy, Happy Adoption Day! 💕

Hi all... it's Oreo. I'm thrilled to share the good news I am in my forever home. I am adopted!

I am pictured with the best Mom and Dad a little pup could ask for. I settled right in. Talk about a great fit! My Mom said "I was precious and a perfect dog for us."

I spend my time playing with my toys, which I love, making many discoveries in my fenced in backyard, and of course, following Mom and Dad everywhere! Wow, this is the life! I never knew dogs could live like this.

When I joined PNK, I was so filthy and matted like so many of my friends. But, just look at me now! I am soaking up all of the spoiling I am receiving.

PNK and me want to thank all of our incredible supporters for these life-changing moments for us. Thank you for making my dream and so many others come true.

I have a new name.....Bogey.

Here's to a long, happy, and healthy life together!
Love, Oreo ( Bogey)

❤️ADOPTED ❤️

Hi all....it's Nico. I am really hoping to have "the luck of the Irish " very soon as I am patiently waiting for my forever home. I've got my green on! I may not be a fancy dog per se, but I am a good dog. A very good dog. Do my eyes look sad? I think they do. All of us want a home of our very own.

Foster Mom said I am one of the most loving dogs she has ever met. I love to be cuddled and I'm a pretty good hugger! Also, I am one of the smartest. I love to please so I am highly trainable. I'm also very gentle. My wiry coat is low shedding. I do well with other dogs. I'm going to say I'm mostly house trained. I say that because the concept was new to me when I came to Foster care and I have learned to use the doggie door. In my new home, I'm sure I will be fine. I will just need to learn your schedule so an accident or two may happen. I don't ask for much. I just want to be with you.

For those who may not have met me yet: I am a 2 year old neutered male scruffy little terrier mix. I weigh around 19 pounds. In this case, the word terrier does not mean wild and crazy. I have been neither one.

How about putting some sparkle in these sad eyes? Applications can be found on our website or at the top of this page. I am being fostered in Kernersville, NC.

Please share so my family can find me!
Love, Nico

Hi all....it's Sophia. I wanted to let everyone know I have recovered well from my spay surgery plus have made great progress! I have become very comfortable in my Foster home. I am dancing and prancing around everywhere! I have discovered I absolutely love attention. My Foster Mom says I am SO sweet and loving. And oh my gosh, the cuteness. 🥰

I'm also much more comfortable around my canine Foster siblings. I would be OK being an only dog or with another calm dog. I'm not too crazy about high energy ones. I can't say I'm 100% house trained, but do use the doggie door to go potty. I have learned so much in a short time. I'm a pretty smart little girl!

For those who may not have met me yet: I am a 2 year old spayed female poodle. I weigh around 11 pounds.

So what do you think? Would you like to be a family? Applications can be found on our website or at the top of this page. I am being fostered in Kernersville, NC.

Love, Sophia

💕 Happy, Happy Adoption Day! 💕

Hi all...it's Libby. Guess where I am? You're right! I am in my forever home. I am adopted!

I am pictured with my beautiful Mom who is definitely one of a kind. She is so sweet and good to me. She really understands me. It certainly didn't hurt there was a basket full of toys waiting for me when I got there. Anybody that knows me knows how much I LOVE my toys. My Mom has a boyfriend who visits and after lots of barking at him, I love him too! 😀

Wow, I can't believe how much my life has changed. I came to PNK such a mess... filthy and matted. Look at me now. Clean, healthy, and happy!

PNK and me are beyond grateful to everyone who donated to help me get the medical care I needed. You all are amazing and so appreciated! I also want to thank everyone who put in an application for me. A very special thank you goes out to my awesome Foster family. Thank you for opening your heart and home to me. I will always love you!

I have a new name....Lillie.
Now, where is that toy? It's playtime!

Here's to a long, happy, and healthy life together!
Love, Libby ( Lillie)

Hi all….its Aspen. I don’t even know who I am. The top picture is when I joined PNK and the bottom picture is after I got home from my sedation shave today. Many thanks to Hopkins Road Animal Hospital for the wonderful job they did!

I also had my neuter, exam, and screenings which were all good. I do have a wound on my neck that looks like razor burn. It may have come from someone attempting to shave me and I was too wiggly and they got too close. I was prescribed antibiotics and Foster Mom will put hydrogen peroxide on it twice a day until I heal. I was aged 3 to 4 years and weighed in at 13 pounds.

My other 2 friends, Oreo and Sophia, also had good reports! It’s been a long day for all of us. We will all fall asleep dreaming of our forever homes, which we will be ready for soon.

Have a great weekend, everyone!
Love, Aspen

Hi everyone!

My name is Sophia and I joined the PNK family a few days ago. I am an approximate 2 to 4 year old female poodle. I weigh around 12 pounds. I was found as a stray, taken to a shelter, and no one came for me.

The top picture is what I looked like when I came to PNK, and the bottom picture is what I now look like. Not only can I see, but I feel so much better! Many thanks to our wonderful friend Jennifer at All Things Dogs for her magical skills!

When I first came to Foster care, I was so scared I would just shake. I wish I could tell you about my past, but I can’t. It doesn’t appear to have been a very good one. But, I have slowly started to come out of my shell. My tail is now wagging as opposed to staying tucked. I have ventured out of my safe place and started interacting with my canine siblings. I ate all of my food this morning for the first time. I have no concept of a leash, but I am learning. I figured out the doggie door in a matter of seconds and do use it to potty. My forever home will have to go slow with me at first. I have an entire new world to learn about.

PNK had to condense this post because I am getting spayed tomorrow, March 7th! I will also have my exam and screenings. There will be 3 of us there! Busy busy day tomorrow!

Please share!
Love, Sophia

❤️ADOPTED ❤️

Hi all…it’s Oreo. Words cannot describe how much better I feel after my bath and groom! I had so much flea dirt in all those matts my bathwater became red. I definitely feel like a new man! Many thanks to our wonderful friend Jennifer at All Things Dogs for working her magic as she always does!

For those who may not have met me yet: I am a 1-2 year-old male Shih Tzu. I weigh around 9 pounds.

I haven’t been with PNK long, but I am a very sweet and friendly guy. I do great with dogs of all sizes. I can’t seem to master the doggie door so house training is a work in progress. In time, I will get it.

I am all ready for my neuter surgery, which is this Friday, March 7th. Applications can be found on our website or at the top of this page. I am being fostered in Kernersville, NC.

Please share the new me!
Love, Oreo

Hi everyone!

My name is Oreo and I joined the PNK family yesterday. I am an approximate 1-2 year old male Shih Tzu. I weigh around 9 pounds. I was found as a stray, taken to a shelter, and no one came for me.

Like most of my friends, I am in need of a bath and very matted, especially my feet and behind. We will be visiting our great friend Jennifer at All Things Dogs soon.

PNK doesn’t know a lot about me yet, but I am very sweet and love attention. I have been great with dogs of all sizes. I haven’t mastered the doggie door so we are working on house training. I need a little work with leash training also. Gosh, even matted I’m a cutie!

My neuter, exam, and screenings are this Friday, March 7th. Applications can be found on our website or at the top of this page. I am being fostered in Kernersville, NC.

Hi everyone!

My name is Aspen and I joined the PNK family over the weekend. My paperwork reads I am an approximate 4 year old male Maltese. I weigh around 13 pounds. I was found as a stray, taken to a shelter, and no one came for me.

I am so embarrassed I am such a mess. I am so severely matted I will have to be sedated and shaved. That doesn’t stop my super sweet personality. I am so loving. I will follow you everywhere. I do well with all my canine foster siblings. I haven’t mastered the doggie door so we are working on house training. What a love bug I am!

We are hoping to do my sedation shave, neuter, exam, and screenings all in one appointment, which is scheduled for this Friday, March 7th. I’m already playful but when I get cleaned up, I’m going to be super playful! And handsome! 😁

Please share!
Love, Aspen

💕 Happy, Happy Adoption Day! 💕

Hi all…it’s Cami. You didn’t forget about me did you? You can see where I am! That’s right, in my forever home. I am adopted.

Just look at the smiles on my new Mom and Dad‘s face. That says it all. You notice I have to be touching both of them. I love them so much and they love me! I’ve been here for a week and things are awesome! Me and my Dad play a lot. I also love to spend time in my fenced in yard. Got to get those zoomies out!

I was such a scared little girl when I first joined PNK. My confidence is building every day and once I get comfortable, I am on it! My Mom says I’m quite the entertainer! I do keep them laughing. I’m very much enjoying being spoiled. We shelter dogs don’t know much about that most of the time.

I want to thank everyone who put in an application for me. I really appreciate you wanting to give me a good home. As always, PNK and me want to thank all of our amazing supporters for making this and so many other shelter dogs dreams come true.

Here’s to a long, healthy, and happy life together! Don’t forget humorous with me! 😜
Love, Cami

❤️ ADOPTED ❤️

Hi all….its Nico. Neuter? What neuter? I don’t feel any different. I am wide awake. But, I’m happy to report my neuter went well, my exam found no issues, and all my screenings were good. I’m a healthy little boy!

I was quite the social butterfly in the vets office. Even though I’m shy, I was so happy to see everyone, human and canine alike. I wanted to say hello to everyone and my tail never stopped wagging. Who can resist this face and these eyes? Who can resist a scruffy anyway?

Applications are being accepted and can be found on our website and at the top of this page.

I would love to have a forever home soon. I’m going to go home and dream about it.

Have a great weekend, everyone!
Love, Nico

Hi everyone!

My name is Nico and I joined the PNK family yesterday. I am an approximate 2 year old male small mixed breed. I weigh around 19 pounds. I was found as a stray, taken to a shelter, and no one came for me.

I didn’t come to PNK quite this clean, but my Foster Mom wanted me to look my best for my introduction picture. I’m not the kind of dog that needs grooming, but I got a good bath and brush out.

Where are all our scruffy lovers at? My hair type sheds very little. I am so sweet but also cautious at first. I use the doggie door to potty, but have had some accidents my neuter should fix. I am great with other dogs. I’ve only been in foster care 1 day so I am still adjusting and learning.

My neuter, exam, and screenings are tomorrow, Feb. 28th! Let’s get this done so I can find my forever home. I’ll let everyone know how I do. Applications can be found on our website or at the top of this page.

PNK will provide more information as we get to know each other better. I really am a sweet dog who appears not to have had a fair shake in life.

Please share!
Love, Nico

💕 Happy, Happy Adoption Day! 💕

Hi all….Its Checkers. I couldn’t wait any longer to share the happy news with you all. I am in my forever home. I am adopted.

I am pictured with my wonderful new Mom and my sleepy older canine sister, Georgia. I have settled in well and learning the routine of the house. I follow my Mom everywhere! I love to run and play in my fenced in backyard. Mom bought me all kinds of neat toys and I am learning to play with them. I honestly have not experienced much in life but that will change now!

I have come a long way from a filthy, matted little dog who was taken to a shelter as a stray. Who could let me go? I’m so cute. Well, that is all behind me now. Nothing but the good life from here on!

I want to thank everyone who put in an application for me. I really appreciate you wanting to give me a good home. PNK and me especially want to thank all of our amazing supporters for making another little shelter dogs dream come true.

Here’s to a long, happy, and healthy life together!
Love, Checkers
