Furry Friday: Meet Ryan Evans!
Ryan Evans is already neutered and READY TO GO HOME!
Ryan Evans is a handsome 2-year-old male dog who came in as a stray. Ryan is an easy-going pup who is easy to leash and walks by other dogs without any reaction. He’s a gentle, sweet boy who takes treats gently and is known for being a good walker with no pulling. With medium energy, Ryan is perfect for both playtime and relaxing moments. During doggie playgroups, Ryan was okay with being more reserved and more in the background. He seemed to enjoy himself, but he was more lowkey. Although he is heartworm positive, it is treatable and not contagious. Friends of Wake County Animal Center has provided a $400 sponsorship to help cover the cost of treatment.
If you’re interested in learning more about him, please reach out to our volunteer matchmakers at [email protected] with the subject line “Ryan Evans 251912”.
He is up to date on vaccinations, flea/tick, and heartworm prevention, is microchipped, and already neutered. If you have dogs or cats, we recommend slow introductions over time. If you have children in your home, we recommend supervision between animals and children at all times.

Furry Friday: Meet Layla!
Meet Layla (253544)! She may be a senior and she may have some gray on her muzzle, but Layla is full of life and is a volunteer favorite. She is quiet and calm in the kennel, but once it is time for walks, she greets us at the door, tail wagging. She is always up for adventures! She has excellent leash manners and loves to explore the world around her. She has excellent potty habits, so her kennel is always clean. She proves that an old dog can learn new tricks and she accepts her treats very gently for a job well done.
This very sweet senior is looking for her forever home where she can retire in peace and comfort with lots of belly rubs and cuddles. If you’re interested in learning more about Layla, please reach out to our Volunteer Matchmakers at [email protected] with the subject line “Layla 253544.” You can also visit the Wake County Animal Center, open every day from 12pm-6pm.

Furry Friday: Meet Holden!
Meet Holden, a unique-looking 5-year-old with striking flecks of white in his black coat, a white blaze on his nose, and a white chest. This sweet boy came in as a stray and needs to gain a little weight. He has a lot of energy so he would make a good exercise companion. Eager to go outside, Holden pulls a bit on the leash but only because he urgently needs to go potty – he might be potty trained! He shows no reaction to the other dogs as he leaves his kennel.
During playgroups, Holden was definitely a perky player with a friendly female dog player. He engaged nicely and took corrections well. Holden was definitely less comfortable in the prescience of a male dog. His best match would be a mid-level energy female who is non-dominant. Holden takes treats gently, loves cuddles, and gives the best kisses. His tail is always wagging, showing his friendly and loving nature. Come meet Holden and take him to his forever home; he will reward you with endless kisses!
If you’re interested in learning more about him, please reach out to our volunteer matchmakers at [email protected] with the subject line “Holden 251141”.

Furry Friday: Meet Timone!
Timone is a mature 5 year old-with a beautiful caramel coat-standing tall-reminding you of the Rhodesian Ridgeback breed. He is in good physical condition at 77 pounds, knows sit, takes treats with a gentle mouth, and has very good leash manners.
He has no reactivity walking in or out of the kennels past the other dogs, but he will sometimes bark at others when outside. He is most comfortable in his kennel, sitting quietly, waiting for his turn to go out for a walk and potty.
Timone has a very gentle spirit–he is a mature, beautiful dog, who would love to go home with his family. During playgroups, performed like a silly wild bronco, bucking around for fun. He was delighted to engage with another female and bounce around with her. Timone appropriately provided a correction to her when she was a little overzealous. He truly seemed to enjoy himself. Best match would be a tolerant, confident playful female.
If you’re interested in learning more about him, please reach out to our Volunteer Matchmakers at [email protected] with the subject line “Timone 251219”
Timone is up to date on vaccinations, flea/tick, and heartworm prevention, is microchipped, and will be neutered prior to going home. If you have dogs or cats, we recommend slow introductions over time. If you have children in your home, we recommend supervision between animals and children at all times.

Furry Friday: Meet Lola!
Meet Lola, your future partner. She would be that perfect dog for someone looking for a low maintenance, cuddle dog. She is not a walker because she has arthritis but oh is she a cuddler for any human. While she was in her foster home, she slept and watched tv with her foster. She just wants to be with a human. She is potty trained. The foster just asks that you take her out 3 times a day. She really just likes to go outside and do her business then go back inside with her humans. Her perfect day is laying on a comfy couch and having a human to lay by. She also likes some nice little chew bones. She just wants her adopter to know walking is not her thing, so if you are looking for a dog to walk with…she is not the one. She would be the PERFECT work from home dog. She does not say a peep. You actually forget she is in the house! Please make sure if you have another dog to do a very slow meet and greet. The foster believes she would be better in a home without dogs just for her comfort. Please do a very slow and safe introduction if you have another dog.
During a recent playgroup session, Lola took the time to size up her playmates. Like an expert poker player, she didn’t tip her hand to let them know whether she was enjoying them or not. After a while, she finally seemed ready to engage, and we did get several play bows out of her. She tolerated a high energy male dog and did a lot of tail wagging all while maintaining her stoic poker face.
If you’re interested in learning more about Lola, please reach out to our Volunteer Matchmakers at [email protected] with the subject line “Lola 246651.”
It’s worth noting that Lola is heartworm positive, but thanks to the generous support from Friends of Wake County Animal Center, she has a $400 sponsorship towards the medical costs for heartworm treatment. It’s important to remember that heartworm is not transferable to other dogs, and with treatment being possible, Lola is on her way to a healthier and happier life. Please note she has already gotten two heartworm injections. WooHoo!
She is up to date on vaccinations, flea/tick, and heartworm prevention, is microchipped, and will be spayed prior to going home. If you have dogs or cats, we recommend slow introductions over time. If you have children in your home, we recommend supervision between animals and children at all times.

Furry Friday: Meet Kino!
Kino is a wonderful 7-year-old male dog with a wealth of knowledge and a heart full of love. He’s mastered many commands including sit, down, and paw. Kino appears to be potty trained as he keeps his kennel clean without fail.
During playgroup it was determined Kino should be the only dog in the home. Kino is very easy to collar and enjoys his time outside, though he does tend to pull and bark at other dogs when leaving his kennel. This behavior might stem from fear, but once he’s out and about, he’s fantastic. This sweet and gentle boy adores belly rubs and has a soft spot for treats, which he takes ever so gently. He’s patient too – happy to sit and wait for treats while watching cars go by.
If you’re interested in learning more about him, please reach out to our volunteer matchmakers at [email protected] with the subject line “Kino 249847”.
He is up to date on vaccinations, flea/tick, and heartworm prevention, is microchipped, and will be neutered prior to going home. If you have dogs or cats, we recommend slow introductions over time. If you have children in your home, we recommend supervision between animals and children at all times.

Furry Friday: Meet Calzone!
Calzone, or Cal for short, is just sweet as pie! He is a perfect gentleman in his kennel and then on the leash, as well. He was gentle when taking treats and wanted to show us that he knows sit and paw. He LOVES a squeaky ball and really opened up when playing with toys. It took him a few minutes, but with treats and affection he warms up and becomes accepting of being pet. While he looks stoic, there is a serious cuddle bug underneath all of that.
Calzone has heartworms but it’s treatable and not contagious. To help with the medical cost, a $400 sponsorship for treatment is provided by Friends of Wake County Animal Center. Email [email protected] for more information.
If you’re interested in learning more about him, please reach out to our volunteer matchmakers at [email protected] with the subject line “Calzone 249320”.

Furry Friday: Meet Premo!
Premo enjoys a nice walk to appreciate the fresh air and sunshine. Afterwards, he enjoys any and all attention being given his direction. He will reward you with the most expressively adorable head tilts and a big grin!
This low to medium-energy guy is easy to walk and shows no reaction to other dogs. Premo loves to explore and play fetch, and he adores his toys. He knows sit and takes treats gently. Plus, he’s on the potty trained list, keeping his kennel clean.
While Premo is a big boy, during playgroups with another female dog, he was respectful and friendly. He was a bit humpy, but he took corrections well from his play partner.
Although he is heartworm positive, it is treatable and not contagious. Friends of Wake County Animal Center has provided a $400 sponsorship to help cover the cost of treatment.
