Guliford County, NC

Meet Lydia, the sweetest, most cuddly one year old girl you'll ever meet! Lydia may be a young pup, but she's wonderfully chill for her age and loves nothing more than curling up in your lap or being by your side, with an occasional zoomie session. As a deaf dog, Lydia has learned to navigate the world using hand signals, and she's a fast learner! She's already picked up on commands like sit, yes, no, and come here, and she's excited to continue learning with a patient, understanding person or family.

Despite her deafness, Lydia is a happy, confident dog who doesn't let it slow her down at all. She's house-trained, crate-trained, and has never had an accident in the house or crate. Lydia has enjoyed positive interactions with other dogs, but a meet and greet is always a good idea to ensure a perfect match. She's friendly, loving, and loves to make new friends, both human and canine!

Lydia is also fantastic on the leash and did wonderfully during her bath and grooming sessions. She sat calmly through the face wash and didn't mind the blow dryer at all! Lydia is the perfect companion for someone who wants a loving, laid-back dog with a heart full of affection. If you're ready to offer Lydia the forever home she deserves, she's ready to give you endless love in return. All she needs is the right person to care for her!

To meet Lydia, text her foster mom Carolina at (336) 423-1811 to make an appointment!

I got a chance to do a free session with Miss Heart, and her wonderful foster mom today. Heart has been in rescue for 2 years. After meeting her today I can say with total confidence that the only reason she has not been adopted yet is that she is deaf, and people fear what they don’t know. She is the absolute sweetest, happiest girl. She does get a bit excited on walks, but we worked on that today, and her foster mom is set up to help her stay calm even in situations that are super fun, like walks.

Heart is an incredibly fast learner, and was completely in tune with me. Her foster mom has already done a great job of teaching her the basics like sit, stay, etc. We were working on “place” today, and she had it by the time I left. She also currently lives with a small dog, and is crate trained, and absolutely loves people.

Heart is being fostered in Rock Hill, SC close to the NC border. She if anyone is interested in adopting her she is with Halfway There Rescue

I’ve included a couple videos in the comments as well.

❤️ RESCUED ❤️

* DO NOT honor pledges unless marked as rescued at top of the post above name

Hello Ohana. She’s a 6 year old terrier who weighs 63 pounds. She is likely deaf. She is also high heartworm positive, but this can be treated. She’s an owner surrender by no fault of her own.
Ohana likely lived outdoors based on the condition she is in. She’s dirty and has several bites, likely from fleas, on her ears. She appears to have had several litters in the past. Although she had an owner it appears Ohana has been “on her own” for awhile. Despite all this, Ohana is as sweet as she can be.
Ohana is standing at the front of her kennel, watching for visitors. She’s easy to leash and walks calmly.
Ohana was curious about people passing in the hallway. She saw her shadow in the glass door and growled at herself. She welcomed treats and all the affection given to her. I did slow and gentle movements to ensure she wasn’t startled.
Ohana will need a patient and understanding adopter. She will need to learn hand signals and she just needs time and patience. Ohana is looking for a family to cherish her and work with her special needs. Will you choose Ohana?
Ohana is waiting to meet you. Come visit her at Cumberland County Animal Services. No appointment needed. Ohana is ready for a bright future, being loved and cherished by you. 910 321-6852.
