We have several animals that URGENTLY need to find homes! These pets have been at the shelter the longest amount of time and face being put to sleep in order to make room for incoming animals. For adoption info, please call the shelter at Twin Oaks at 336-372-8744.

Sandra D is a ~6 month old german shepherd/husky mix that was found along with a purebred male German Shepherd. She's a very sweet and happy girl who loves people. She also loves to give kisses. Does OK on leash.

Serenity is a ~9-10 week old border collie mix. Serenity is very mellow and laid back for a puppy. We took her to our adopt-a-thon and she was terrific and very well behaved. She did great in the car and walks OK on a leash.

Beau is a 3yr old black Lab mix. Beau's mommy cannot keep him where she is living now and she wants to find a loving home for him where he can have room to run and play. He has been neutered and is up to date on his shots.

Please contact Ashley for information or to visit Beau (276) 233-7424.

Porky is a ~8-10 year old male chihuahua who is very sweet and loves people. He was surrendered because he does not like other male animals. Is fine with older children and cats, but not other male dogs. Needs someone who is able to work with him on his insecurities, an experienced chihuahua owner.

Please email Barbara her foster mom at second.chance.ranch@live.com or call 336-975-0019 for more information on Porky

Sophie is a ~6 year old boxer found as a stray. She is a special needs dog because she has allergies to grassy areas and can only be outside a few minutes at a time. She must be an indoor dog. She still likes to jump, spin and run zig zag and she now loves to tease cats. She remains the perfect houseguest and loves to go for car rides. Her leash manners are wonderful! Sophie will be spayed prior to adoption.

Please email Barbara her foster mom at second.chance.ranch@live.com or call 336-975-0019 for more information on this wonderful girl

Beau is a 3yr old black Lab mix. Beau's mommy cannot keep him where she is living now and she wants to find a loving home for him where he can have room to run and play. He has been neutered and is up to date on his shots. Please contact Ashley for information or to visit Beau (276) 233-7424.

As consumers, we have the power to stop the cruel cycle of animal abuse perpetuated by puppy mills.

When we buy a pet or even shop at a store that sells puppies, we contribute to a heartless underground industry that forces dogs to spend their entire lives in cages constantly breeding to support consumer demand for puppies.

Take the pledge to stop puppy mills!
I will do my part to help stop puppy mills. I will pledge to help end this cycle of cruelty by:

Would you for one second choose to live the life of these dogs? No matter what reason is given, the bottom line is that it is NOT ok to chain a dog for life. Dogs should not have to live chained or penned as prisoners, yearning for a place in a family, craving acknowledgement, respect, and love. They DESERVE BETTER, and we as caretakers have the obligation to provide it for them.

Jake, now known as Pappy McGee, was adopted by a wonderful woman in Alabama.
