Look at this beautiful ray of sunshine! ☀️
Meet Loki! He is a four year old pit/boxer mix and weighs about 60 pounds! He definitely gets along with female dogs but due to his last situation he is not keen to male dogs. He was adopted from us about a year ago, his last owners thought he was "guarding" the wife, but they sent us videos and it was 100% clear that the other dog was the problem. He was eventually returned due to problems with this dog in their home. Loki started out very dog friendly and was even a helper dog for puppies before he was adopted by his past owners. He came back a little different. He has developed some barrier frustration issues that get worse in the winter due to the limited space in the shelter, it would be so wonderful for him to not have to spend another winter here! If you're looking for a cute guy to cuddle up with this winter, Loki is your guy! ❄️ ☕
To adopt this handsome fella please fill out the application below! And please share! The farther this post goes the better opportunities we have for Loki!

We can't wait for you to meet this special girl!
Introducing Roxy- She is 5.5 years old, weighs ~70 lbs, pit mix! 🐾
She was adopted from us as a puppy and brought back 5 years later. She has been with us for about 3 months now and really struggled with abandonment. It's clear she loves her people and would thrive if she had her own person. We think she was mainly an outdoor dog and was not socialized with other dogs so she gets really stressed out by dogs barking. We have taken her off property and she has done well with dog meets through the fence (not reactive, relaxed) but she is so stressed out here she does not do well with dog meets in our play yard. I think she could be dog friendly, just not in our shelter environment. She is a super cuddly girl and would thrive with someone who likes to be outside, will be patient, and give her the structure she needs!

Here is another handsome boy who is also one of our long term residents!
Meet Rickey! Rickey is a 3 year old pit/mix and weigh 60lbs, what a ham! He has also been through basic manners training and is eligible for Canine Good Citizen Certification when he finds his furever 🐾 home! He is young and has ENERGY ! He would be an excellent trail dog! He is very friendly with humans, other dogs, and while he was being fostered he was around cats - he didn't seem to care/acknowledge the kitty however, it would be best to have socialization with any household kitties you have! With a proper introduction he could get along with a cat beautifully! He would be the perfect dog for a young couple or someone who likes to hike or run or is outdoors a lot. He was brought to us after being abandoned in a house that animal control had to break into to get him out, he was skin and bones, but now he is a thick healthy boy! Please help us find Rickey a forever home! He has been with us a long time and the longer he is here the harder it is on his mental health. If you would like to adopt Rickey please fill out the adoption application I have posted on my page and we will get started!

Hey y'all! We have some very special faces to show today! We are looking for forever homes for some of our long term rescues. Meet Tav 🐾- He is a black and tan hound, somewhere around 2-3 years old, and weighs 50 lbs-- such a handsome man! This poor guy was dumped out in front of the shelter, he is extremely scared of men so he would do better in a female household! He was in a foster home for about 4 days during the storm and showed signs of being house trained, however he definitely has a kidney issue so he pees very frequently. A dog-door would be best for him. He is also nervous when inside, but will eventually lay down. He is good with most dogs! If they are friendly he is friendly back, however if they are nervous he gets nervous as well. Tav's ideal home would be a family of women, who are active and willing to be patient with him as he is very timid at first, if you would like to schedule a play date we would love for you to meet this very special boy! Please spread the word and share all around, Tav is available for adoption in all the states!

If you are unable to fill out the form for any reason please reach out and I will help you! Thank you so much everyone! The support and love I have received have been tremendous and we are so blessed to have such a great bunch of supporters! Please like and share!

Yesterday was a long but successful day.

We did our typical grounds work, but the biggest thing we did was have our animal rescue department locate homes for over ONE HUNDRED displaced animals!!! We cannot thank you all enough for all of the love and support you are showing to Operation Wolf. Please keep sharing posts in order to get the word out. We were only able to make all of this happen because of you guys spreading the word.

We were able to help out a family of 6 locate diapers, water, and toilet paper as well.

We also located supplies for a distribution hub in Swannanoa that really needed some help. Those drops will be happening today!

There is still so much to be done and so many families to help. If you would like to donate items or money towards specific needs, or volunteer, please let us know! If you have any needs at all, message us, Brittney Conner, or Summer Morris and we will do everything we can to help you!

Okay everyone I finally have an update! There are many shelters needing fosters ASAP! There is a document to fill out if you're wanting to foster displaced pets affected by the flood, I will leave the form at the bottom of this post for easy accessibility! This will put you in direct contact with shelters needing help, and as always I will be helping coordinate these efforts for anyone unable to fill out the document themselves. I am still in need of fosters for all of WNC. My efforts have been centralized around Haywood, Asheville, and Buncombe, but I would like to stretch my efforts further out too so I can reach more people to foster and help us get those who need food and supplies and medical care for their pets. I am beyond blessed to have the support from each and every one of you and I am so thankful to those who have reached out directly. I will be in contact with those who have sent me messages -- I had a medical emergency that took me away from my efforts today but I will be back with boots on the ground as soon as I get out of urgent care! As always, we will continue to push through, and we will tackle this massive animal need in WNC together! From my fur family to yours, sending you all much love! ❣️

Please fill out this form so we have a centralized location of all the dog, cat, exotic, pocket pet and bird foster’s information. The foster system is in the process of still being organized, don't expect to hear back immediately after submitting, but within the next few weeks you should be conta...

Our neighbors need us now more than ever! This shelter is in Madison County NC and was affected drastically by the flood. They are a small town with limited resources as is so anything helps! If you are local and would like to foster please reach out! If you want to donate money please do so directly to the shelter you want to donate to--- there are many and truthfully they ALL need it so anything is helpful. If you have supplies like CALMING treats, soft blankets, pet beds, and even toys that will help keep the pets calm and have a sense of normalcy during this time. Please be mindful that any toy needs to be a safe toy to be played with in their crate, and no stuffing please! Pups tend to eat stuffed animals and that's just not good for any of us! Thank you all for so much support. It takes people like you to help this community keep going during hard times. We are so very thankful for our people and community! Sending much love...and of course fur 🐾 💜

You guys are AMAZING!! I've been in contact with some incredible people this morning willing to help foster and gather supplies for our fur babies in rescue and I am blown away with the help, thank you all so much! Please keep spreading the word and sharing to get it out there! We are finding more ways to help along the way but we still need our people so we can continue to make this happen! Y'all are incredible and Operation Wolf and all our fur babies around WNC are so thankful of you guys! Big bear hugs! 🤗

Hey folks! There are a lot of animal needs in WNC right now but the biggest one is FOSTERS! These animals have nowhere to go and the shelters here can only do so much. I am asking for any information, leads, tips, anything regarding getting fosters, please send it to me or Summer Morris !! Currently my team is working to get our animal shelters and rescues carriers for transporting, it will be an ongoing need as these animals will likely be living in the carriers until fosters can be found. We have one specific place needing 20-30 plastic pet carriers by Wednesday, but if any other shelters need them I will also gather as many as I can to distribute! Please share the word, pass it to your neighbors, local shelters and organizations if they need supplies I can find it! There will be another post following with a Google document that has information for animal resources in WNC divided by county. From our fur family to yours, let's save these fur babies!

We are one week in, and here’s the update:
🐾 We have helpers on the ground. We do not need any more general volunteers at the very moment as we are such a small building and campus we cannot fit you. But Friends of Madison County Animals needs volunteers for their pet food distribution ([email protected]) right around the corner from our shelter. 🐾 Foster’s reaching out! We love you and thank you for being willing to open up your home to a pet in need. We WILL need you - expect to hear from us early next week - but we are going to have to limit fosters to folks who live within our county or immediate neighboring counties unless you are a business or large group that offering due to needing animals to come back for rechecks and medical care. 🐾 Small rescues reaching out we also will be needing you! We are small too and in the coming weeks we will be getting animals that are young or special needs and are not suitable to go out on these initial bulk transports and we would be thrilled to send 1-3 your way. The animals being displaced will be ongoing. 🐾 IMPORTANT! We are not shipping strays out on transport or adopting them out. We are holding them for 2 weeks if there is no form of identification and will try and hold for much longer with fosters for any dogs/cats with some form of ID so we can reunite then with their owners once phones are back online which is going to be up to four weeks out. Please make sure your owned. free roaming animals have collars and ID tags so they don’t get picked up and brought in right now. We can provide both at the shelter for free during this time.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT 🙏
