We love *all* of our Pyrs and celebrate every adoption. 

Some of our dogs are a little more special to us because of who they are and the road they have traveled. 

Luke, now @momo_thewingedpyrlemur , is one of those dear to our hearts.

We are thrilled that he found people who love him as much as we do in Chris and Toni.

Longtime friend of the rescue and Pyrent Kim was smitten by Andre, who gave her a big 'ol kiss during their meet-and-greet.

Now renamed Liam, it looks like he is equally happy to run and play in a yard of his own. Look at that smile!

UPDATE: home safe!

This lovely girl is resting with a Good Samaritan after being found on a walkabout in Davidson, NC just west of Main St.

She's social, in good shape, and clean--someone is probably looking for her. 

No collar.

Comment if she's yours. We will put you in touch with the finder.

An update on Joy.

Her eyes...look *great!*

She has had surgery to correct entropion in both eyes and is recovering beautifully. She will look a bit silly as her fur grows back, but she will live her best life without eye irritation or infection.

Joy and her sister Andi will be ready for their #FureverHome soon. They are a bonded pair that we are placing together. Interested? Fill out an application to schedule a meet-and-greet at carolinapyrrescue.com.

Thanks to all who donated to cover the cost of joy's care. We appreciate you!

It has been a long day...and even though it is technically Tuesday now, we are still squeaking in with a #MakeoverMonday post before heading to bed!

Do y'all remember when Skye arrived in rescue in 2023? This sweet girls was near death, emaciated, and too weak to walk without assistance.

After a spectrum of tests, a flurry of treatments, and lots of tears, we learned she has EPI, which refers to a pancreatic enzyme deficiency. She takes a supplement with each meal, and, as you can tell, she is thriving!

Skye is a healthy, happy girl who is ready for her #FureverHome. She is deeply bonded with Stark, a male Pyr who came in at about the same time and has an autoimmune condition that impacts his coat. There two are deeply attached. We know it is a BIG ask to find a home open to a special needs bonded pair, but these two are worth it.

And, wow, just look at Skye's smile and gorgeous coat. She is a living reminder than things get better and a posterPyr for the power of love and second chances.

To learn if Skye and Stark are your Pyrfect matches, please read our policies and fill out an application at carolinapyrrescue.com.

Thanks for likes and shares!

As we just posted, Wally and Holly recovered from their corrective surgery for entropion and were adopted.

Next, it is Andi and Joy's turn. As we shared with you earlier this week, Andi and Joy are a bonded pair of sisters.

Like Wally and Holly, Joy has entropion. Her corrective surgery is scheduled for Tuesday of this coming week.

Can you help us cover her bill? We need to raise $160 more!
