Darling Delilah came to us through a shelter partner. She is the sweetest of girls, calm, and gentle.

She would be a wonderful match for a family with children, cats, or smaller dogs of either sex.

To learn more about Delilah, read about our placement process and fill out an application to schedule a meet-and-greet at carolinapyrrescue.com.

Happy #TwoForTuesday!

We are squeaking in before the end of the day to remind you that we have the more adorable bonded pairs!

Adopting a bonded pair is smart. It saves gas. Just adopt two at the same time so you don't have to drive back to the rescue for a second Pyr! You know you are going to want another?!

To meet our bonded pairs or any of our wonderful Pyrs, fill out an application to schedule a meet-and-greet at carolinapyrrescue.com.

Happy #MakeoverMonday, friends of the Pyrs!

Do you remember what Manny looked like when he came into the rescue over the summer? That's the photo on the right with the grey background.

Like a balloon animal, right?!

Shannon NEVER shaves the Pyrs, but Manny came with a botched shave job from a shelter partner, and so the best she could do was even his bald ass out.

Well, a few months have passed, and this sweet, social pocket Pyr has completed treatment for heartworms and started to grow in a lovely fluffy coat.

Manny is now an adorable land cloud!

This boy would be a wonderful match for someone who loves the breed and wants a smaller Pyr. He is social with female Pyrs and smaller dogs of either sex.

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

We have the best news to share and have received the sweetest treat today!

Our darling escape artist Hope, who got out of her adoptive home while settling in there and who has been having an adventure in the woods connecting Matthews and Mint Hill, NC, has been caught and is safely back at the rescue.

Hope has walked by humane traps set for her by our friends at Tucker K-9 Search & Rescue with rotisserie chicken. She has more posters and flyers of her up than an old time outlaw. She has ignored volunteers she knows who have walked those areas dozens of times, including with other dogs she likes as enticements. We've had countless sightings. She has given the folks at Tucker K-9 and us a run for our money. Over and over.

This morning, a family saw her in their fenced yard, and they closed the gate and called Tucker K-9.

When she heard the news, Shannon was en route immediately.

Hope acted like "what took you so long?!", jumped right in the truck, was thrilled to be back at the rescue, and plopped her fluffy ass in her Pyrpartment like she had never left. She's sleeping like the dead.

Happy Halloween! May you enjoy a wonderful treat today! We sure did!

We want to extend a BIG THANKS to our friends at Tucker K-9. We are also grateful for all those who reported sightings of Hope and were kind to her while she was on her adventure.
