Farasha 

This sweet girl was brought in as a stray by a community member. They kept her for 3 weeks, but unfortunately could not keep her. We named her Farasha, which is an Arabic word for butterfly.  4/27; HW+;  56lbs; 3 yrs old; shep mix

Farrah- sponsored for pull fees; July 2021 Intake 

Farrah is a very sweet girl. She walks well on a leash, and did well during her intake. bully mix; 7/21/21; 52lbs; 3 yrs old;  Treated for hw's.  Ready for a home!

Update August 31, 2021: Do redheads have more fun?  Just ask our pretty lady Farrah!   Farrah is a super fun, happy girl always on the hunt for a good time.   Solid and strapping at 52lbs,  she along with her best friends (1 male and 2 female dogs) were seized by the sheriff due to concerns for their overall care.  Luckily for Farrah, her only health concern is testing positive for heartworms and is at a good, appropriate weight- which was not the case for all of her friends.  We enjoyed Farrah's upbeat personality and her desire to catch that next slice of adventure just right around the corner!   Farrah is a very sweet, snuggly, affectionate lady who is generous with her kisses, hip swivels and her playful antics.  She did well in testing with other dogs, both male and female. She is confident and eager to meet other dogs and happily trots over to say "hi" with a full, wagging tail and grin on her face.   Farrah keeps the good times rolling right along and would be nicely suited in a more active home where she can get out and stretch her legs.   Don't forget to have a nice soft spot where she can rest her pretty head and sleek, toned body! 

Foster Update Feb 10, 2022: ”Farrah is my foster. She has been with me since November. One of our angels saw that Farrah was getting passed over, so they paid for her heartworm treatment. Yep! Just to help our friend. Today Farrah is a happy, friendly girl who is eager to make her person or people happy. She is a quick study and already knows sit. 🙂 She is ready for a family of her own.”

May 6, 2022 Update: Farrah was out to help Brandon and to show her awesomeness.  Farrah is a friendly girl and in her foster home is friends with a variety of dogs, from a senior golden retriever, to teen pup as well as a couple of small breed dogs. Farrah met Scooby and Stellar.

Farris

Farris was brought in as a stray. Some of his ear was severed at some point but had healed back and just hangs there. It doesn’t seem painful to him. He has a cherry eye as well. Garris did good for his intake. He is very well mannered and let us do whatever we needed to do.. he is HW negative.  lab mix; 52lbs; 2-3 yrs old; 3/9

More about me April 10: "FARRIS, you were so much fun during photo time and it was so easy to simply be with you.  Sure wish we could clone you as you are so perfect," commented one of our volunteers in describing her experience in working with handsome, hunk Farris during eval time.  No truer words were spoken to describe our labby mix.  Farris is an overall "nice guy" who is equally as happy meeting other dogs as he is in nicely chilling and hanging with his new human friends.   Farris is a calm, polite doggy who is an excellent meeter/greeter.    This was Farris's first time out for eval and photos and he was truly sensational and got with the program asap.  We had him out for a full 3 hrs and he just did not disappoint.   Softly loving and attentive,  Farris also enjoyed jogging around and meeting other 4 legged friends.   He smiled a lot and made us smile as well.   If an even keel, great with all kind of doggy sounds like your kind of new best friend, we encourage you to please experience Farris today.

Gemma - I'm a mom!  May 16 11 pups

Gemma is a big beautiful old lady. Her muzzle is graying.. While in the med room she wanted to be in my skin. She loved being with someone. She soaked up every once her little heart could get. She is HW:Positive. She walks well on a leash. She was wearing a collar arriving as a stray from Lamar. She seems to be house trained and could really show how great she is in a home and not in the intake building. She does have a scar on her belly that I am almost certain is a spay scar.  great dane mix; 66lbs; HW+; 3/23; 6 yrs old

More about me April 11: What a classic beauty!!  Don't cringe, but GEMMA is a gem of a dog.  When she came strolling into our play area,  the jaws dropped and we all commented on how stunning and regal this wonderful girl is.  At 66lbs,  Gemma is a good size girl.  She's trim and lean in her physique and check out those long, long legs.  Gemma also has a long body...it just keep going on and on!  We saw a nod perhaps to some Great Dane heritage with her lankiness and that more Scooby Doo style head.  Her behaviorism nicely ties into the Dane breed as she is calm, polite and has a very stately feel.  Gemma was a good girl when it came to meeting other dogs.  Now a middle age dame, she is good with other dogs and like a hall monitor (of sorts) she keeps an eye on everyone and if someone is not behaving well, she will let out an appropriate, low growl of correction.  She does not want dogs climbing on her back for example (not an easy feat given her height) but for those who try,  she will gently correct.  Older kids who can respect her desire to not be ridden like a pony and or have ears and tail pulled, will find a very good friend in Gemma.   Gemma has an amazing prancing gait and she made it super easy for us to simply chill and be in her presence.   In the market for an easy to manage and dignified doggy?  If so we encourage you to consider Gemma.  What a delightful lady.

Grendel

"I have a girlfriend.  She sports a honey colored coat and she's playful and goofy, just like me.  Her name is Pocohontas," boasts our handsome black and tan friend GRENDEL. For a first outing having been with us about a month, Grendal might say he did a good job and we might say he did a great job and made us all smile!  Our mid-sized guy was a little tentative exiting his kennel but once out of our front gate,  he knew good things were on the horizon and beautifully trotted along towards his fun in the sun time.  Grendel is a great mix of snuggly and sniffy!  For his first round of pictures,  he could not contain himself and trying to position him in our laps was like trying to capture an oil coated, sprinting pig.  LOL.  He was so happy with himself that he had a major bout of the wiggles.  As you can see on line however,  he found his calm, inner self and then proceeded to pose beautifully for the camera.  But back to his girlfriend.. Poco was his best friend.  The two of them nicely ran off leash together and really seemed to enjoy each other.  With other dogs,  Grendel is calm and polite and says "hi" like a gentleman but most of the other dogs (except Vixen!) were turned off by him and we couldn't figure out why.   We're glad we reached for Grendel and hope to get him out again with another mix of dogs to broaden his friend base.   Til then,  don't be shy and see if Grendel might be the perfect one for you to try and wrangle and love on in your lap! lab mix; 40lbs; HW-; 3/29; no history; 1.5 yrs old

Gunner

Nov 2022 Update: Gunner is a handsome young (1-2 yrs) American Staffordshire terrier mix. He has the clown-like temperament that advocates of this breed love! He is extremely focused and eager to learn, and he will thrive in a home with an experienced dog owner who believes in the potential of this breed. Gunner has a soft mouth (takes toys and treats gently) so he can easily be trained with rewards. Gunner is very smart, and he quickly learned the routines in his current foster home. Gunner is crate trained and comes when called. He loves to romp and play with a male or female canine playmate, and he respects the other dogs at his foster home. Gunner will be happiest in a home with older children (due to his playfulness) and canine friends who match his play style. His exuberance and stamina will make him a good companion dog for an active family with a fenced yard for playtime. He is submissive to the dogs in his foster home when a correction is needed. Even though he is an active young boy, another high energy playmate at his foster home was recently too much for him. He looked for his foster mom to take him back inside. Gunner is tender-hearted and eager to please his family. Intake: hw-; 10/26/2021

Hero

Hero was brought in as a stray from New Market Rd in Hartsville. HE IS BEAUTIFUL!!!!! Hero is so gentle and very loving. He thinks he’s a certified lap dog and will not settle for less. Today we used him to make a Memorial Day post on the shelter page. hero is HW:Negative, Walks well on a leash once he has a minute out of the kennel. He doesn’t meet a stranger and We haven’t seen any reaction to other dogs while he’s been at the shelter.  5/20; HW-; bully mix; 2 yrs old; 52lbs

Hershey

7/13/22; 36lbs; 6 mos old; lab mix; hw-.  Believed to be sibing to Brinkley. He did great with Gypsy in the play groups today, so we kenneled Gypsy with him in an OPR to help him.

Update Dec 30: Hershey is a beautiful chocolate Lab mix. She needs a family who is experienced with dogs who need socialization. Hershey is submissive and sweet, and she loves other dogs. However, because she was left to grow up in someone's yard without much human contact, she is not sure how to be a pet or how to belong to a family of her own. In foster care she is learning leash-walking and crate training. She trusts her foster mom more every day. She yearns for someone to trust who can teach her how to be a part of a family. She makes progress every day. A home with a canine companion for Hershey is a must. If you are willing to take the challenge of helping Hershey realize that life can be wonderful, and if you are experienced with a fear-based dog like her, consider helping Hershey.

Hobbs

Hobbs was brought in as a stray by animal control. He is friendly and playful. Hw negative. shep mix; 45lbs; 1.5 yrs old; 3/25

More about me April 18: "Hug me, squeeze me and then let me loose to run and play," explains our light hearted, silly, super friendly fella HOBBS.   Hobbs greeted us with some fancy tap dancing footwork as we exited his kennel.  So happy to leave the confines of his cement cell, he was grinning ear to ear and that tail was on super wag mode setting as we walked towards the play yard area. Hobbs is fun and friendly, social and engaging and ready ASAP to be let loose in a pack of dogs to meet and greet, sniff and play tag.   Hobbs loves being in the thick of things and to see his beautiful body language as he wove in and out and around in a pack as big as 7,  well it warmed all of our hearts.  Hobbs special skill which he was pleased to share with us is fetching a tossed flip flop!  Who would have thought?  Balls did not really peak his interest but the $1 flip flop was a hit.  We have endless videos of him with the shoe and the rest of the pack standing around and watching the show he put on for us all.  A crowd pleaser and a doggy perfectly capable and willing to care for kids,  won't you consider adding this amicable guy to your home?  You'll be glad you did.

Honey was brought in as a stray by animal control with 3 of her pups. She is very sweet and sits like a good girl. She walks well on a leash and is HW positive. 50lbs; 2 yrs old; HW+; 3/30; hound mix

More about me April 25: Voted Miss Congeniality!  It was unanimous when polling volunteers as to what the tag line should be for a lovely red and white hound mix, HONEY.   Honey was a hit.  From the minute this happy faced, super pleasant lady stepped into her play yard, we all sighed a happy sigh as we just knew she would make our eval job easy and she would be a fast friend to all...which she was.   Honey was terrific and super solid in meeting male and female dogs.  No intro is necessary in her world.  Polite and gracious, friendly and affectionate,  she made all the dogs feel at ease as if they could trust and confide in her and yes, play with her.  As wonderful a companion as she is with other dogs,  you TOO will find an amazing friend with Honey.  She was quick on her feet to give us generous yet soft hugs of affection.   A lap girl who is perfect for folks spanning the ages,  she is a free spirit who is easy to manage and even easier to really fall hard for!  A recent mom to 3 older pups,  she is ready to retire her apron strings and get to work as a full time companion pet.   You'll be the lucky one to have her caring over you.  Just saying.

Indigo- pup

This pup was brought in as a surrender by Hartsville fire department. She is very scared but has been warming up to us since she got here. She is still pretty timid, but does not run away from us anymore.  lab; 4/24; 23lbs; 12 wks old

Foster Update May 10: Hi!  I’m Indigo, but my foster family calls me “Indie” or “Little Bit” most of the time.  I am a teenage pup, about 25 lbs, and about 4 months old.  I absolutely love my fur brother and fur sister.  You see, when I arrived at the shelter, it was a really scary place for me.  Although I am still shy, I have blossomed and become much braver than before.  Most of my confidence has come from hanging out with my furry friends in my foster home and having time to grow at my own pace with my foster family.  You see, I enjoy them, but sometimes when they are standing up tall, they are a little intimidating for me unless my furry friends are also around so I may sometimes hide.  I used to just come inside and just sleep on the couch, curled up beside one of my humans.  Now?  I’ve become quite an explorer.  I like to sniff everything and test out all the dog beds in the house, especially after my fur sister has gone to bed for the night.  Her dog bed is my favorite, for sure.  I love to eat and know when it’s time for meals.  I also like the comfort of my crate.  I am super quiet in there.  Crate training and housebreaking?  I’m working on it, but doing great.  Only a couple of accidents.  (Sorry about that!) I love playing outside in my yard.  Do you have a house that could use one more friend?  I need to be in a home with at least one other dog who likes to play and will help me to blossom even more.  Could I be meant for you?

Ivy-safe

Ivy was brought in as a surrender to animal control with 3 of her pups, I x 3 pups.  The elderly person can no longer care for them.  Ivy is very sweet and friendly. She walks pretty well on a leash. lab mix; 1/26; 1 yr old; 49lbs; HW+

More about me Feb 15: IVY is a doll baby.  Just saying.  This more recent mom arrived with her 3 puppies (now 5 months old) and was she ready to exit and leave her family behind to get her glam pictures?   Well, heck yes!!  LOL.   Ivy was superb during her outing.  This girl immediately stepped up to the plate as she beautifully posed for pics and then met doggy and doggy again with skill and grace that all the dogs found appealing.    At a year old,  Ivy still has a silly, playful feel to her and as if to celebrate her brief reprieve from her needy pups, periodically we caught her in cat zoomie mode, sprinting in tight circles as if to say, "I'm so happy.  I'm free of THEM!"   Ivy is sweet, friendly and has a great disposition.  Social and wishing to be a part of the action, she was easy to manage and was easy to reach for as we determined who next needed a dog test.  She was very solid in this area.   She's up to a light game of wrestling with other dogs if they too are of this type.   Ivy is a great girl that made us smile.  Sporting a more trim physique, with white on her chest and freckles around her muzzle,  Ivy is a very approachable, appealing girl who interviews like a pro.   She'd surely love for you to experience her for yourself.

More about me March 28:  Lovely lady IVY makes it super easy to chill by her side and simply be her best friend.  When we first had Ivy out for pics and play time, she did not disappoint and second time around once again she was a super star.  This delightful doggy is so personable, loving and welcomes all with open paws.  She almost does not need intros with other dogs as she's like, "Hey, let's go play and have fun!"   We had her off leash with both males and females and oh, the fun she had and the doggies who were the lucky ones to have her as a new playmate.   Ivy is a medium energy girl who is pretty easy to manage.   She'd be honored to have kids under her care and an extra doggie or two would be icing on the cake in her new home but not necessarily a make it or break it point with her.   Ivy is done raising her more recent litter of 3 pups and she knows....and we know...It's her time to shine now!  Please check her out today.

Kahleesi

Kahleesi was brought in from Hartsville Fire Department.  She a happy happy girl who makes everyone smile who sees her and walks politely by other dogs and cats.  lab/dane; 63lbs; 2/2; 2-3 yrs old; hw-; 

More about me March 31: Long, leggy, elegant and down right STUNNING!  Dane mix KAHLEESI is all of this and much much more.  It's amazing this incredible doggy with a Scooby Doo head has been hanging out below our radar for close to 2 months now. That's just no bueno!   Kahlessi was simply terrific and personable and a real joy to be around during her photo and evaluation slot.   This beauty is rock solid perfect in meeting other dogs.  We had her with males and females and dogs of varying energy and playfulness levels.  She was great with everyone and proved to be very tolerant of even more pushy dogs.  After meeting other dogs, she would typically stretch out (even in the middle of a short walk) to softly gnaw away on a hard toy and enjoy her quiet/down time.  Hint: This seemed to be the best time to get in some good snuggles with her!  Kahleesi is generally very, very calm and chill however if you entice her with a toy, you'll see a fun, yet focused side to her.   Ask her to sit for a toy (which she does amazingly!) and then watch her sail away from you to get the prize!  Cats too will get her amped up a bit, so we're thinking a cat free home is a good choice for her.   This great girl with a great attitude easily ticked off a good cross section of desirable pet skills and we can't wait for YOU to discover them for yourself. 

Foster mom update April 25:This is Leesi checking in.  I am adjusting well to my foster home.  My Foster Mommy can't believe how well I am doing.  I am almost completely crate trained, I had an accident for the first time today but F. Mommy thinks it's because we are still trying to figure out our schedule.  I LOVE cuddling on the couch with my F. Mommy and F. Daddy.   Already, I have learned to sit and go in my crate on command.  I turn into a bunny when she is getting my food together and then I am learning to sit and be patient when she puts my food down. I'm adjusting well to a Gentle Leader leash so I am an even more perfect and yes, easy leash walker.  I have a doggie foster brother and sister.  My foster doggie sister and I play all the time. F Mommy has guided me well to be a tad more gentle with my foster brother as he is a bit older than me.  I get to go on a road trip this weekend to meet my foster human sister and watch her play some sport.  More to come so please check back in.

Foster update May 15: This is Leeis!  I have had an eventful two weeks.  I love playing with my foster siblings.  Mommy says I am very good with my foster sibling Betsy, she is blind and I am very good with playing with her.  I have figured out the difference between playing with her and playing with my other foster dog siblings.  I get along with everyone I meet.  We went on a trip and watched my human foster sibling and I did great, says Mommy.  I met little humans and big humans, there were many distractions and I listened.  The car ride, I was good too.  I would check on Mom and Dad and then go lay down.  I also was in a house with a cat and did well. I am completely crate and house trained.  I have moved from sleeping in my crate to sleeping in my foster parents room!!  I love playing but I can be a total couch potato.

Kendra

Kendra was brought in as a stray from Darlington. She is really sweet and did great for her intake. Kendra is HW:Positive. She walks well on a leash and enjoyed being outside today.  lab; 4/5; 56lbs; 3 yrs old

More about me April 18: Our stunning black and white jacketed friend, KENDRA is home no matter where her paws land!  This silly, goofy, playful soul greeted us by rolling over on her back, sticking her legs up in the air and then making her head all snuggly in our laps.  Talk about a laugh out loud moment!   The fun and loving continued as we added doggies to her mix and oh, the grand time we all had, together.  Kendra is quick to make friends and needs almost no time to sniff other dogs before she is beckoning them to come run and play with her.   Very spot on in meeting other dogs, we had her out in play groups off leash for a full 3 hrs and if she could speak, she might tell us it was the perfect way to spend her morning!  Happy, sweet natured and loving,  one of the eval volunteers awarded her with "Best Leash Walker of the Morning" and commented on how much she enjoyed the easy manner about her.  If you have dogs and or kids,  Kendra would surely be honored to share her life with them and hopes soon, you will find her to be YOUR new best canine match.

More about me Feb 14: What a great looking, appealing dog!  All the heads are turning when KEVIN arrives and for good reason.  A larger, more hunky guy,  Kevin is super, super handsome.  Welcoming all with a huge grin on his face and a tail that never stops wagging, you'll find it hard to leave this great dog's side.  For big dog lovers,  Kevin is your kind of dog at over 70lbs!  Very friendly, engaging and ready to love on his human,  Kevin is not one to leave on the sidelines.  We had him out with both male and female dogs and he wishes to play with them all.  He errs on the more dominant side however so dogs who are more submissive and or who won't want to challenge him will hit it off with him seamlessly.  Kevin is a playful, active guy who is loaded with personality plus!  Described by a volunteers as a "Big, goofy, very lovable doggy," Kevin makes a statement no matter where he goes and to be in the spot light,  surely suits his pet style.  Kevin was brought over from Bridge Boarding for his photo shoot at the shelter and when it was time for him to be loaded up into his crate in the car,  he hopped right in, settled down and smiled at us as we bid him adieu!  We had THE best time with Kevin and know you will as well.  Ask to meet Kevin today and we just know, he will be your new best friend.

Lenny

Lenny was brought in as a stray by a community member. He got away from her in our parking lot, and we spent the next few days running around trying to catch him. Thanks to the MANY people who came out to help, we got him back. He is very scared and jumpy but so far has not tried to snap at anyone. He does not walk well on a leash and is HW positive ( the test was very light. but it was positive.). bully mix; 57lbs; 4/4; 2 yrs old

More about me April 18: We are SO PROUD of our brindle boy LENNY.  This guy who was so terrified arriving at the shelter that he escaped from his car and hid for days in the bushes nearby before being caught,  turned out to be THE biggest super star and charmer during photo/eval time.  Initially,  Lenny was rather tentative in exiting his kennel area and then even in his fenced in area where we do photos.  We gave him time to observe and settle in and what a wonderful dog emerged for us all...humans and doggies alike... to enjoy!   Lenny may not yet be a professional face cleaner nor lap denizen but he earned high marks in opting to be near us and then ultimately coming when summoned to give us wet nose nudges of appreciation.  Once he broke out into a relaxed smile and soft tail wag, we knew he'd fit in just fine and indeed,  he totally rocked it out.  We had him off leash with a good variety of other dogs...male and female...some calm..some energetic...some young and some old.  He was great with everyone.  Very respectful in meeting dogs, he easily glided in and around his new canine friends making sure his new human friends were also able to benefit from his calm, soft energy.   A good size fella pushing 60lbs,  Lenny has a smaller feel to him, he's never pushy and his gentle, chill personality are sure to appeal to folks who are in search of a mild mannered companion pet.   Hint:  We'd like to think your new pet's name is Lenny!

Lenora

Lenora was brought in as a stray through a community member. She did well on our walk to the med room, there were a few dogs and yard cats out at the time and she did just fine. She is heartworm: Negative!!  41lbs; border collie; 2-3 yrs old; 3/21

More about me April 25: "She's on her back, legs in the air," squeals one of our volunteers as we approach our fluffy beauty, LENORA.  This positioning directly speaks to her overall silly, goofy, playful personality and perhaps also a nod to her collie lineage.  We enjoyed our time with Lenora.  How could we not smile when she would come trotting over, ears going bounce, bounce and that tail with the white tip, also going bounce bounce.   Very friendly, outgoing and wanting very much to play,  bring the kids on over and what them interact and enjoy our pretty lady.  Oh, the fun they will all have together!   LENORA is a more dominant doggy and likely in general prefers the males to the female dogs.  Her best match during photo time was hunky, big boy Charlie.  Over twice her size, although Lenora tried to engage in play with him off leash,  he honestly just had no interest in playing with her, which was consistent with other dogs.   Lenora is a great girl with tons of curb appeal who would do well in a more active/busy home where she can be challenged mentally and also physically.  Is she the right girl for you?  Please stop on by and check out her today.
