Oreo is ready for his new family! He’s a one year old male, weighing 45 pounds. He’s got a lot of energy, but settles down nicely. Oreo was turned in to the shelter because his previous owner didn’t have time for him. He’s house trained, neutered and microchipped. Adoption fee $250.

Keep your pets safe!

Coyote pupping season is here, in fact, the N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission reports that coyote sightings peak in May as they ramp up their activity searching day and night for food to support their newborn pups.

Coyotes prefer to build their dens away from human activity, but in North Carolina that can still mean contact with people. As coyotes wander in search of food, which can include wild fruit, small mammals, and this year’s increased number of nutritious cicadas, they can enter residential areas, especially if food is plentiful.

Tips to deter coyotes:
• Remove all outdoor pet food, fallen fruit, food waste and bird feeders.
• Keep cats and small dogs on a leash or harness whenever they’re outside.
• Haze coyotes away from homes and businesses. Hazing can be as simple as waving your arms and shouting forcefully, spraying them with a water hose, or throwing small rocks in their direction.

SOAR would love to rescue this boy and give him a second chance. Anyone willing to foster? Here’s what the shelter has to say about him:
This awesome boy is ASHER. Asher is a 3-4yr old shepherd/husky mix weighing 65lbs. Asher is HW-POSITIVE and needs treatment for that. He has been such a joy to have here; running and playing with everyone! He knows how to sit, shake and lay down! Asher is such a beautiful boy and needs someone to care and love him! Please give Asher a second chance!

He has received his DHLPP, BORD, RABIES and been dewormed.
