💕 Happy, Happy Adoption Day! 💕

Hi all.... it's Dougie. I'm thrilled to be able to announce I am in my forever home. I am adopted!

I admit, I did not make this picture easy. Talk about wiggly! But, I think we ended up with a pretty good picture of my new Mom and me. I like the way she is staring so lovingly at me. Now I kind of feel bad for wiggling so much. But there were so many new sights and smells to discover! Plus, my toy was on the floor! I can't be too far away from my beloved toys!

I got to pick out my favorite bed so now I have somewhere to stash my toys. It's just me so I don't know why I feel the need to do that. I kinda like being the only child. All the attention is mine and I don't have to share my toys! I love when we play fetch, but I don't always bring them back!

I am ready for all the spoiling I am going to receive. I arrived at PNK a dirty, matted, lost little boy. Now I have found my way. It's nothing like knowing you are home. I'm going to make so many friends here.

I want to thank everyone who put in an application for me. I heard there were a lot! I really appreciate you wanting to give me a good home. As always, PNK and me want to thank all of our amazing supporters for helping make these moments happen!

I'm keeping my name. It was my Moms Dad's name! It was meant to be!

Here's to a long, healthy, and happy life together!
Love, Dougie

♥️ ADOPTED♥️

Hi all.... it's Dougie. It has been a while! The last time you saw me, I had been shaved. My hair is growing back beautifully, and my coloring is simply gorgeous! Yes, I feel like I can brag a little!

I had surgery? What surgery? I feel like I could run a marathon and jump a few hurdles. But they told me I had neuter surgery and everything went great. They also said my exam found no issues and all my screenings were good! I'm a healthy young man! I was aged 2-3 years and weighed in at 11.6 pounds.

Applications are closed for me, so I am hoping the next picture you see of me I will be in my forever home! Hooray!

I have to go home and rest? Yuck, I don't want to rest. I want to play with my squeaky toys I love so dearly. I am definitely ready for some dinner. Let's go home Foster Mom.

Have a great evening, everyone!
Love, Dougie

Hi all....it's Rosie again. I am sitting in the vet’s office thinking..... I'm not scared, I'm not scared, I'm not scared. It didn't work. I was scared.

But, I made it through it. I told you I would let you know how everything went. I'm happy to say they went great! I got a good report! My exam found no issues and all my screenings were good. I'm a healthy little girl! I was aged 1 year and weighed in at 8.7 pounds. I thought I was smaller than 12 pounds. When I was found, I had a bad flea infestation. Of course the fleas are gone, but they left me very itchy. I was prescribed a medication to help with the itching.

Applications are still being accepted, and the link will be added in the comments. You can always message us. I am located in Kernersville, NC.

Whew! I'm worn out and ready to go home. I hope to meet my forever family soon!

Please share and have a great weekend!
Love, Rosie

Hi all...... it's Rosie. Wow, do I feel better after my bath and trim. But, I was soooo scared as you can tell in the top picture. Therefore, we did a quick little photo shoot at home where I was more comfortable. I believe that was the first bath I've ever had. Many thanks to our amazing friend Jennifer at All Things Dogs for her patience and skills!

For those who may not have met me yet: my paperwork reads I am an approximate 1-year-old spayed female small mixed breed. I weigh around 12 pounds. I am believed to be a Morkie ( Maltese/Yorkie). However, I do shed a little. My hair is very silky.

I have not experienced too much in the world. Everything is new right down to my harness and leash. So, I become afraid once I leave my comfort zone. I have been good using the doggie door to potty outside. I don't mind my canine siblings, but I wouldn't exactly say I am fond of them. No young children, please. I am incredibly sweet when I am comfortable. I'll give you lots of kisses. I love a good lap. I'm such a pretty little girl who just needs to get out and experience life so I can gain some confidence.

I am now ready for my exam and screenings which are scheduled for tomorrow, Friday the 9th. I will be sure to let you know how everything goes. I will be ready to join you next week.

Applications are still being accepted. That is the first step to adoption. Applications can be found in our website, at the top of this page, and the link will be added in the comments. You can always message us. I am located in Kernersville, NC.

Hi all..... it's Arlo. It has been a while! Don't I look different? I have hair. The last time you saw me, I had no hair. I was so matted I had to be shaved. I will add a picture in the comments.

Now to today..... my neuter went well as did my dental. My teeth cleaned up nicely and no extractions were needed. My exam found no issues and all my screenings were good. I'm a healthy boy! With hair! 😁 I was aged 4 years and weighed in at 10.1 pounds. I have gained 3 pounds!!! Yay! I really needed to put on some weight. I am looking pretty good. As to what breed of dog I am..... I do not shed. A camera scan says schnauzer. Some at the vets office thought Yorkie mix. Maybe both?

Whatever I am, I am a real sweetheart. I was so happy to see everyone today, humans and canines. I wanted to say hello to everyone. I absolutely love other dogs! Especially playful ones! In my foster home, I am house trained. I adore attention and love to give it back. I'm a great kisser!

Foster Mom just said it's time to go home. I could talk forever. Rest is not something I particularly enjoy doing, but I was just told I had to. Bummer!

I am still searching for my forever family. The first step to adoption is to fill out an application. Applications can be found on our website, at the top of this page, and the link will be added in the comments. You can always message us. I am located in Kernersville, NC.

Please share so my family can find me!

💕 Happy, Happy Adoption Day! 💕

Hi all..... it's Fuzzy. It's my turn to say I am in my forever home. I am adopted!

I am pictured with my 2 best friends and younger family members. Mom and Dad let them have the spotlight. Oh, the times we have playing in my fenced backyard. I run really fast and as hard as I can go. I love it! Perfect for a young pupper like me. I have discovered I like toys.... especially tennis balls. Throw...fetch....bring back... repeat. Many, many times! Life is good! I sleep well at night, that's for sure! If I am not playing, I am following Mom everywhere. I am spoiled rotten already! I will add some pictures in the comments.

I have come a long way from that filthy, matted, little boy who found himself in a shelter. All of that is behind me and it's nothing but the good life from here out!

I want to thank everyone who put in an application for me. I heard there were a lot! I really appreciate you wanting to give me a good home. As always, many thanks to all the incredible PNK supporters who help make these magical moments happen!

Uh-oh, I see a tennis ball just lying there. I think it needs a little action and I am the man for the job! I'm gone folks!

Here's to a long, healthy, and happy life together!
Love, Fuzzy

Hi everyone!

My name is Rosie and I just joined the PNK family yesterday. My paperwork reads I am an approximate 1 year old spayed female small mixed breed. I am believed to be a Yorkie mix. I weigh around 12 pounds. I was found as a stray, taken to a shelter, and no one came for me.

I want you to know the significance of my name. A donation was made in memory of Kelly's Mom who was named Rosie. She was an avid lover of animals and loved all dogs. I proudly take this name as mine.

I was spayed at the shelter, so I can't get groomed until next week due to my spay incision. I can't wait to see how beautiful our amazing friend Jennifer at All Things Dogs will make me! After I am groomed, I will have my exam and screenings. Then I will be ready to join you. All of this will take a couple of weeks.

Here is what we know about me so far: right now I am very sweet, shy, and quiet. I haven't experienced a lot in life. I have been very good to go outside to potty, but I am not sure I can say I am house trained yet. I have no idea what a harness and leash is. I'm OK with my canine foster siblings, but I just arrived and really don't want them around me right now. So sniff and go! In time all of this can change. I am trying to adjust to my new life.

Updates to come! The first step to adoption is to fill out an application. Applications are being accepted and can be found on our website, at the top of this page, and the link will be in the comments. You can always message us. I am located in Kernersville, NC.

♥️ ADOPTED ♥️

Hi all..... it's Dougie. I feel so much better! Sadly, I was so matted I had to be shaved. My hair will grow back, but you can't ignore that handsome face of mine! Many thanks to our amazing friend Jennifer at All Things Dogs for her incredible skills!

For those who may not have met me yet: my paperwork reads I am an approximate 2 year old male Shih Tzu mix. I weigh around 11 pounds. I do not shed.

I am as sweet as can be! I am friendly to everyone and never meet a stranger. I appear to be house trained. I can be timid around other dogs. However, I really like them! Especially calmer ones. Cats and children are unknown at this time. I ride well and love to eat! I'm a pretty laid back fellow. I sleep soundly in my crate at night without a peep. I love to give kisses, especially if I am in your lap or being held. That's 2 of my favorite things.

I am now ready for my neuter, exam, and screenings which are scheduled for Tuesday, October 13th. I will be ready to join you soon after. I can't wait to meet you!

Hi everyone!

My name is Dougie and I recently joined the PNK family. My paperwork reads I am an approximate 2 year old male Shih Tzu mix. I weigh around 11 pounds. I was found as a stray, taken to a shelter, and no one came for me.

I may not look it in this picture, but I am very matted, especially my legs. I smell terrible. First up is a visit to our amazing friend Jennifer at All Things Dogs to get cleaned up.

I am just settling in my Foster home, however it's easy to see how sweet and friendly I am with everyone! I am a little timid around other dogs, but I do like them! Particularly calmer ones. I seem to be house trained. Even dirty and matted, I'm such a pretty pup!

My neuter, exam, and screenings are scheduled for Tuesday, October 13th. We hope to get in sooner. I will be ready to join you soon after.

The first step to adoption is to fill out an application. Applications can be found on our website, at the top of this page, and the link will be in the comments. You can always message us. I am located in Kernersville, NC.

Hi all...... it's Arlo. Oh my gosh! I can't believe it's me! My hair is all even and I am clean! No more nasty, stringy matts. I will add a picture in the comments if you have forgotten what I looked like before. It was past pitiful. Yes, I have very little hair, but it will grow back beautifully. Many thanks to our incredible friend Jennifer at All Things Dogs for her amazing skills!

For those who may not have met me yet: my paperwork reads I am an approximate 4-5 year-old male small mixed breed. Any guesses as to what breed? I weigh around 7 pounds but I'm in the process of gaining weight. I will not shed. I have the sweetest little face. That's why we added an extra picture! 

A little about me: it appears I've had a pretty hard life, but I am a true sweetheart! I love to be with you. Velcro dog I am. House training is going well. I figured out the doggie door very quickly. I'm pretty smart. I do well with other dogs. Cats and children are unknown at this time. I do have a considerable amount of energy. I do not like to be crated and will bark. However, I am crated at night and with no activity around I settle down. I do OK on a leash and ride well. All I want, is to love you.

I am now ready for my neuter, dental, exam, and screenings which are scheduled for Tuesday, Oct. 6th. I will have gained a little more weight by then, and my hair will have grown back some. So get those apps in!
