3. Pan Fry

Puppy · Male · Terrier · 7 mi from Broadway

Hello!

My name is Pan Fry. I was recently rescued from a busy road here in Lee County. Someone brought me to the rescue, so that I was not hit by a car. Thankfully the rescue was able to do a hold with the shelter to search for my owner, but no one ever came for me. I am very underweight so maybe I have been on my own for a while. I am estimated to be 3 years old. I am just 11 lbs. I might be some kind of terrier, but who knows! I am presenting very shy right now, I seem scared of the big world - BUT I am so sweet and loving! I melt right into your lap. Do not hesitate to ask the rescue to meet me!

4. Mr. Smee

Puppy · Male · Basset Hound · 7 mi from Broadway

Hello,

Read more about Mr. Smee

My name is Smee, I am pleased to meet you. Guess what?? You have actually just stumbled upon the most amazing little short-stack you could ever find. I am told my many of the humans at the rescue that I am a very special little man. They just can't get enough of me here. I am short like a dachshund with the head of an average size dog. I am obsessed with toys, and I am obsessed with snuggle people. I ride really well in a car, and I walk really well on leash. Except for when I decide to play tug of war with the leash hehe. I am house-trained. I do not like being in a crate, and I will whine the whole time. I do however put up with it. I love sneakily stealing shoes, but I am learning to leave it when I am caught!

I get along with dogs and kids.

I have the silliest personality and I hate being apart from people that I love. My life before rescue was basically being confined to a chain outside. I don't know how someone could not see the light in my eyes and treat me with dignity and love.

5. Andy

Puppy (11 months) · Male · Pit Bull Terrier · 7 mi from Broadway

Hello beautiful human! My name is Andy. I am around 11 months old, and a mid size, weight just around 35 lbs. Looking at my sweet face, and easy going demeanor...you would never guess where I came from. The rescue met me, when I was living in a tiny outdoor pen. I had little coverage from the hot Carolina sun, and was covered in fleas. My skin had countless open sores, scratches and my beautiful fur was mostly all gone. I was in deep pain, and despite the discomfort, I was wagging my tail and smiling BIG! The rescue took me with them when they discovered my living conditions, and after seeing a vet I am now doing so much better. My gorgeous gray coat has grown in nicely, I am healthy and just ready to start my life. I love playing with dogs, and I love people! I walk so nicely on a leash. I really can't wait to meet you! xoxo Andy, a resilient pup

6. Stanley Steamer

Puppy · Male · Terrier (short coat) · 7 mi from Broadway

I am Stanley Steamer. I came to the rescue from the local shelter! I was so scared there. It was loud and a sweet boy like me doesn't deserve to feel scared. I am super lively and playful. I would do best in a home with an active owner! I love to play with balls, jolly balls, tennis balls, it doesn't matter what kind! I would likely be great at catching a frisbee too.

I do okay with dogs but it has to be the right fit of course! I am working on not jumping on you so much. Progress! I really can't wait to meet you!! XO Stan

7. Carrot

Puppy · Female · Staffordshire Bull Terrier (short coat) · 7 mi from Broadway

My name is Carrot and I'm looking for a wonderful home to call my own. The rescue took me in as a stray dog and quickly found out how insanely sweet, smart and well behaved I am. I like to go on walks and nap. I am moderately active and will likely adapt well in most homes. I love dogs and kids ages 5 and up. No cats for me please. Ultimately I am just a good girl who deserves an amazing home.

I am just 45 lbs but I appear larger in pictures. I have a beautiful dark brindle coat.

I hope to meet you soon!!

8. Barn Door

Puppy · Male · Pit Bull Terrier · 7 mi from Broadway

Hey there! My name is Barndoor and I am so excited that you have stumbled upon my bio! You are in luck, because I am the sweetest marshmallow pup at the rescue!! I was found as a stray by a volunteer, and sadly no one ever claimed me as their own. So I have been searching for a home for some time now. The rescue has learned that I walk well on a leash, and enjoy walks. Most of the time you can find me snuggled on my bed, so I am likely a bit on the lazy side. I am definitely a favorite around the rescue, as I have been described as the SNUGGLIEST guy! Most volunteers like just sitting in my kennel, so they can get the best hugs from me.
I would do best in a home as the only dog. I do well with kids. I am roughly 4 years old, and 65 lbs.

Located: Raleigh, NC

Read more about Bucky

Bucky is approx 2-3 yrs old, found by a good Samaritan near Fayetteville, NC. He had collapsed, was injured and received medical care at an ER vet and was eventually transferred to Animal control. His injuries indicate he has not had any easy life. He was malnourised, had some trauma to his head, double ear infections and had birdshot in his paw. - YES, someone shot this dog in the paw. He is heartworm positive and needs to complete his treatment before he can be adopted. Bucky is extremely kind and trusting towards people. He likes head pets, and then immediately plops down for belly rubs. He is crate trained, housebroken and absolutely loves his stuffed toys and chasing a ball. Bucky will do best in a home with older childer, no cats and would prefer to be an the only dog. We are currently taking applications on him, however, he will not be available for a few months.

16. Stefan

Adult (2 years) · Male · Airedale Terrier / Poodle (Standard) / Mixed (medium coat) · 15 mi from Broadway

Hi there! I’m Stefan, a 2-year-old Airedale Terrier, and yes, I’m a tripod. But if you think that’s going to stop me from living my best life, you clearly haven’t met me yet!

I may be missing a leg, but I’m not missing a single bit of that big terrier personality. I’m ready for adventures, fun, and all the love my forever family has to offer. After all, being a tripod is just one little detail about me. It doesn’t define who I am!

My story began in a place no dog should ever have to call home.

I was one of more than 20 dogs rescued from a puppy mill in South Carolina, and when I arrived, I was in heartbreaking shape.

Read more about Stefan

The world is still a scary place for me. I’m learning that people can be kind, that gentle hands can bring comfort, and that life can be so much more than simply surviving. I may be shut down right now, but deep inside, there is a little dog who deserves to feel safe, loved, and cherished.

Thanks to Pawfect Match, I finally have a chance to discover what it means to be a dog. My healing will take time, patience, and understanding, but dogs are remarkably resilient, and I’m proof that even the most wounded hearts can begin to heal. I just need someone willing to give me a chance, meet me where I am, and help me discover the beautiful life I’ve always deserved.

17. Charlie

Adult (7 years) · Male · Dachshund / Poodle (Miniature) / Mixed (short coat) · 15 mi from Broadway

Charlie is a sweet little Dachshund mix who came from a breeder surrender, and he’s ready to discover just how wonderful life can be outside that world.

His idea of a perfect day? You, a cozy lap, and a good movie or book. He’s perfectly happy snuggling for hours, as long as he can be close to his favorite human. Honestly, personal space is not really his thing!

Read more about Charlie

Charlie is a quiet, well-mannered little gentleman. He’s non-destructive, sleeps peacefully all night in his crate (as long as it’s in the room with his people), and is an absolute star for grooming. Put his harness on the floor, and he’ll even step right into it like the polite little fellow he is!

He’s learning to explore the big world outside, but for now, he’d much rather keep his walks close to you. He gets along with other dogs with slow, proper introductions, and he has one very important weakness: CHEESE. The way to Charlie’s heart may very well be through the cheese drawer.

Charlie is looking for a loving home where he can be someone’s little shadow, cuddle buddy, and loyal companion. If you’ve been dreaming of a dog who will happily keep your lap warm and your heart full, Charlie might just be your perfect match!

Adopting a dog in Broadway

Most rescues ask you to fill in an application, meet the dog, and pay an adoption fee that usually covers spaying or neutering, vaccinations and a microchip. Many are foster-based, so you'll often meet your dog in a volunteer's home rather than a shelter.

Senior dogs are often the calmest companions and the slowest to find homes. If you'd like a settled, affectionate dog, ask the rescues about their older residents.

Puppies go quickly, so if you've fallen for one, contact the rescue soon. Ask how big they're expected to grow, and plan for plenty of house-training and training in the first few months.
