Senior Dogs for Adoption in Raleigh, NC: 11 Older Dogs Looking for a Home

When he's displeased, he'll yodel a little, full disclosure. But it's not long-lived. He just wants to be around his people. So if you're looking for the easiest guy to have around, Morpheus is that guy. He might be a senior, but he's still got a lot of life and love to give. Adoption fee of $90 includes neuter, microchip, vaccines, deworming, heartworm testing, and heartworm/flea/tick preventionApply here: https://2pawsup.org/applications/adoption-application/

Dolly is estimated to be about 8 years old. She is currently receiving the veterinary care she desperately needed when she arrived. One of our biggest concerns is that Dolly appears to be blind, so she will need a patient and understanding family who can help her feel safe and secure as she learns to navigate her new world.

But being blind doesn't mean Dolly doesn't have plenty of love to give. ❤️ She is a precious little soul who deserves to spend the rest of her life knowing what it feels like to be safe, cherished, and truly loved.

Because of her age and possible vision impairment, Dolly would do best in a quiet, calm home with someone who understands that senior and special-needs dogs may need a little extra time and patience. We are looking for someone who will see past her physical challenges and recognize the wonderful little dog underneath.

Dolly didn't choose to be neglected or abandoned. She didn't ask to arrive at rescue in poor condition. But she now has a chance at the happy ending she deserves.

Could you be Dolly's forever family? ❤️

Dolly is available for adoption through Rainbow Bridge Hospice Rescue. If you can't adopt but would like to help Dolly and the other medically needy senior dogs in our care, donations are always greatly appreciated.

He's at least part Sharpei, so he has those cute little mouse ears, a rougher coat, and a spotted tongue. And he has these little gray patches of fur under his eyes that create a seriously adorable expression. He will follow you around the house, but will settle in and relax at your feet. He can manage a few steps, but more than that might be difficult on a regular basis. He has a few favorite toys (including a couple stuffies and a jolly ball) that he'll randomly play with. But his main thing is being around his people. He's neutered and heartworm negative, ready to join a new home for his next chapter. We'd love to see this gent have the best rest of his life.

It makes me feel so safe and loved.I've learned to be a good housemate, too. When my foster mom leaves, I go into my crate for a nap and just sleep until she comes back. I don't get & get "barky", but I will let you know if a stranger comes into the yard—it's the least I can do! This makes me a great candidate for an apartment or condo, as long as I get my regular potty breaks. But, full disclosure, I do get a little excited about chasing squirrels and cats, so my human would need to be mindful of that. I prefer to be the center of attention and would love to be your one and only fur-baby. I might be open to a chill similarly-sized female dog after a proper introduction. (I do love my foster sister and will even curl up with her on the couch, but I’m choosy about my doggy friends.) I have not been around children so not sure how I’d react but foster mommy thinks that because Istartle with loud sounds and quick movements, it would be best if I didn’t have children around.I promise to give you my whole heart and be your most loyal and affectionate companion. If you're ready for heaven on earth, let's meet soon!As part of Halo’s $300 adoption fee, he will be neutered, microchipped, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, and current on his monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives.

Shadow, predominantly a short black and white cutie, is perhaps 10yy. They are known to be healthy overall, have been fully vetted, enjoy walks under our beautiful NC skies, enjoy a car ride, and know how to use a dog door. They also would say “Yes” to…a fenced yard. If you seek these pastimes: cuddling, watching pooches twist in delight when booties are scratched, relish in the pleasure of a relaxing afternoon in bed when it is raining or snowing, being the recipient of pooch smooches, and look forward to playing with stuffies, look no further!PS. – If you usually ride shotgun, you may have competition or… a guest on your lap. As part of Sandy & Shadow's bonded $400 (for both) adoption fee, they arebe spayed/neutered, microchipped, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, and current on her monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives.

Our sweet boy is up to date with his shots and neutered, and he is also dealing with a luxating patella, a condition affecting his knee that can cause discomfort and mobility issues. He also recently had a dental. As always, we are committed to making sure Elvis gets the veterinary care he needs so he can have comfort, stability, and hopefully find the perfect forever home.

He is available for adoption, and the adoption fee is $300; we do not transport dogs. Must be located in the Raleigh and surrounding area.

Mr. Pepper gets along wonderfully with other dogs and does well with respectful children who understand that every distinguished gentleman appreciates a little personal space. He's incredibly intelligent, quick to learn, and happiest when he's spending time with his favorite humans.

His dislikes are simple: vacuums. In Mr. Pepper's opinion, they are loud, suspicious, and entirely unnecessary.

If you're looking for a loyal companion, a cozy couch buddy, and a tiny best friend with a wise old soul, Mr. Pepper may be your perfect match. He has so much love left to give and is ready to spend his golden years making someone's life brighter.
