Horse Rescue United (HRU) Jessica is an 18-year-old 14.2-hand dark bay Standardbred mare who was saved from New Holland auction in January 2011. She has some trust issues from her past that have greatly improved. Jessica loves to drive and is also an excellent pasture pet/companion for other horses. Also suited for smaller advanced trail/pleasure riders, Jess is a sweet, yet feisty girl who can ride walk-trot-canter. Jessica needs a quiet, private home with an adult female adopter who is understanding and experienced. Jess' ideal home will give her lots of peppermints, scratches, and attention.

One Step Closer Animal Rescue (OSCAR) Pinky is an 8-month-old female Chihuahua mix who is less than 10 pounds. She is a snuggler who also enjoys playtime and love to play with other dogs. She is a smart girl and cute as a button. Berry is an 11-month-old German Shepherd mix who is a big boy. His foster mom says he is a fast learner and has a great temperament. Berry is already potty trained and crate trained; he’s also doing a great job with leash training. He love to give kisses and is extremely friendly.

Eleventh Hour Rescue Hillary is a 2-year-old, 40-pound female Shepherd/Terrier mix who is the perfect size and demeanor for any home environment. She actually smiles by lifting her lips and showing her pretty white teeth while enthusiastically wagging her tail. She doesn’t have a mean bone in her body and her foster mom calls her “liquid love” because she will just pour herself all over you with love and affection, wanting to cuddle up close. Karen is a 2-year-old dilute calico cat. She is a very nice, playful kitty that gets along with other cats, dogs, and all humans. Karen is super friendly and would make the perfect addition to any family. She is spayed and up-to-date on all vaccines. Karen was pregnant upon her rescue. She was a great mommy and all of her babies have been adopted. Now it is her turn. She’s very active and loves to play with her toys. Karen is currently living in Eleventh Hour Rescue’s Expanded Adoption Center at the Mount Olive PetSmart store, so come in and meet her today.
