Nina Shepherd Newport, NC

Nina is a young, friendly, and affectionate 6 month old puppy who loves to shower her human friends with kisses and snuggles. She came in as a stray May 17, 2024 and was never reclaimed so she’s awaiting her adoption day. Although Nina is a bit shy and timid at first, once she warms up to you (happens quickly), she's a ball of energy and fun. She's an intelligent girl who is eager to learn and please her people. Will need an owner that understands she’s still a puppy and will continue to help guide her and help her with consistency in training and manners so she can blossom into an even
More amazing adult dog. Nina would make a great companion for someone looking for a best friend. Stop by for a visit with this adorable pup today and adopt Nina into your heart and home.
If you have another dog and are interested in meeting another potential new furry member please bring him or her to the shelter and meet on neutral ground before adopting. No need to shuffle the animals around any more than necessary. Please know that 1 mosquito bite can create heart worms and they can be fatal if not treated. It is VERY important to keep your pets healthy and protected by keeping them on a once a month heart worm and flea/tick prevention. These animals are counting on you as their owner to provide them with lots a love and the proper health care so PLEASE make sure you are aware and prepared before adopting. Owning a pet is an extra expense and responsibility but is so worth every minute and penny you invest in them. They will add lots of joy and unconditional love if given a fair chance.
The shelter is open Mon.-Fri. 10-1, 2-5, Sat. 10-4. Adopt a homeless pet and save a life. If you can not adopt right now come out and volunteer and make a difference in the lives of these animals while they await their FOREVER home.
In order to adopt any of our "bully breeds" there is special paper work that will need to be collected and approved prior to the adoption. We love all of our dogs and want to make sure to place our "bully babies" in homes best suited for them.
