Boris & Benji

*March 14th Update: The boys are currently out on a Slumber Party! <br/>Benji & Boris are brothers who arrived at NCCR on 3/7/26, transferred from an overcrowded shelter that ran out of room for them. They are 4-year-old neutered males, believed to be Pomeranian mixes, both full-grown at approximately 12 lbs. each. Boris & Benji are a bonded pair who are seeking a forever family that will keep them together. We’re told that they are a little shy in unfamiliar situations, but they adjust well with some time and patience. More info to come as we get to know them better.<br/>The boys are in a foster home. Meet & Greets can be arranged for approved applicants. <br/>*Approved applicants are welcome to participate in our popular Slumber Party program and take a dog home for up to 2 weeks to make sure he/she is a great fit. <br/>If you think you might be interested in adopting, your first step should be to complete an Adoption Application at www.caninerescue.org. *After you have completed your application, you will get a confirmation that we have received your application. It takes a lot of time to process the applications, so we ask for your patience while we do so. If you see that the dog you were interested in has been adopted it means there were many applications for that dog and we did not get as far processing your application before a home was found. We welcome you to apply again when you see another dog that interests you. If you have a question, please email us at adoptions@caninerescue.org. It is much easier and quicker for us to respond by email as we receive many phone calls each day.<br/><br/>We do adopt out of state, however we do not transport or ship dogs. Potential adopters must be able and willing to travel to the Rescue to meet the dog they are interested in.<br/>*PLEASE double check all of the phone numbers that you provide. If they are incorrect, we will be unable to process your application. Please also let your references know that someone from NCCR will be calling them. Most adoption team members call from their personal phone, so advise your references that there may be an unknown or private number calling them. Thank you!
