Thanks to all who donated to cover Marshall's vet bill and all who shared his post.

His treatment is paid for!

We are especially touched by the several owners who gave in memory of their deceased Pyrs. What a wonderful tribute!

We are often contacted by folks wanting smaller Pyr mixes -- dogs who look the part, act the part, but come in petite packages.

Well, we have three pocket Pyrs now!

Ed, Wanda, and Mary Ann are all the good things about the greatest breed but all are in the 75 lbs. or smaller range. (Wanda is still growing but she's not likely to be a large girl based on her current size.)

All of these dogs are sweet, social, and loving.

We are looking for a home for Wanda and Mary Anne together. They are bonded.

Ed can join a family with a female dog his size or smaller dogs of either sex.

All of these dogs would be great matches for families with kids or grandkids visiting.

To learn more about our pocket Pyrs or any of the wonderful dogs in our care, read about our placement process and fill out an application to schedule a meet-and-greet at carolinapyrrescue.com.

We have just over 40 wonderful Pyrs in our care...and no one scheduled to go to a furever home this weekend.

Applications always slow down in late spring and early summer.

This year, they have ground to a screeching halt for us and many of our sister rescues. We get it. There's a lot going on in the world.

But dogs still need us, and maybe we need the love that dogs provide more than ever.

If you are thinking of welcoming a new family member into your pack, now is a Pyrfect time to adopt! If you want to make a pawsitive impact in the life of a good dog, your Pyrfect match is waiting!

Marshall has a many-time adopter and friend of the rescue interested in welcoming him into their pack. We just need to get this loving, silly boy healthy.

If you can donate any amount toward his $1,000 vet bill, we appreciate it, and so does Marshall.

This content isn't available right now

When this happens, it's usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it's been deleted.
