Best Friend Pet Adoption

Best Friend Pet Adoption (BFPA) is a no-kill animal rescue organization based in central North Carolina. BFPA has no building, office, or shelter. We are an all-foster network committed to helping dogs and cats in need of homes. Individual donations are our most important source of income as we receive no public funding.Our purpose is to provide medical assistance, foster homes, and adoption services to previously lost, abandoned, abused, or neglected animals in Wake County, NC and the surrounding counties. Our mission is to educate this disposable society in which we live that every life should be valued and cherished and is directly linked to human responsibility and commitment.Almost all the animals we rescue require immediate medical attention. BFPA never turns away or euthanizes an animal because of the expense involved in returning them to good health. All our rescued animals are evaluated for temperament, examined by a veterinarian, vaccinated, microchipped (if possible) and sterilized, if age appropriate. Cats and dogs receive monthly flea/tick preventative and dogs also receive monthly heartworm preventative.The most important ingredients we provide to these animals are loving care and a safe haven -- something most of them have never experienced. These cats and dogs live in volunteer foster homes until we find them a loving permanent home, however long it takes. We match these precious beings to a single, couple or family who understand cats and dogs should be full participating members of the family. Our hope is that these animals never have to experience being unloved again.Since our beginning, BFPA has rescued and placed over 2,500 cats and dogs into their forever homes.BFPA was created in 1998 by two Raleigh-area women who had volunteered with other established rescues in the Triangle. Their dedication to help homeless dogs and cats has led to an organization that has grown to over 225 volunteers strong.BFPA received 501(c)(3) status in 1999.

Meet Peter

You must submit an application to Best Friend Pet Adoption to be considered for Peter.  The  application is at: https://toolkit.rescuegroups.org/of/f?c=WHMSYCNC   Peter Parker, much like his famous namesake, may seem like your average, unassuming 5-month-old 30lb hound mix puppy. But Peter Parker is a superhero of joy and fun. Mom and puppies were strays, lacking food and comforts, Peter was the most affected. He came into rescue very underweight, with mange, and bowed legs that made him walk a little like a spider.   With better nutrition, extensive play PT with his foster sister, and an environment full of love, Peter has blossomed into a brave, funny hero who is ready for new adventures in his forever home. Could he go on adventures with you?    Peter is crate trained and sleeps through the night in his crate. He's 90% potty trained, knows sit, and is working on leash training. He enjoys the freedom of exploring a fenced yard, likes the company of other pups, but would probably be ok as a solo dog in an active household. Peter has bursts of big energy, loves to run and play, and play wrestle with his foster siblings.   Peter has met children, and been shy or disinterested with them, but based on his playfulness and energy level, may be best suited for older children.  He has not been cat tested. His foster currently works from home, and so he has company throughout the day. Still in puppy mode, he's crated when family is out. Peter is usually a quiet dog.    Peter loves toys, to play, gives kisses, and can make just about any activity fun. His fur is soft, and shiny, and he's checked out in top health. There's no way to have a bad day with Peter by your side He always ready with a game, or a trick, or a hop to make you smile. Adopt Peter today, and enjoy being a part of him growing up into the superhero of your family.   Some of the information contained in this biography includes approximations based on our expertise and is not guaranteed.  Applicants must live no further than one hour from Cary NC as our dogs must be seen by a BFPA veterinarian for all medical care prior to adoptions being finalized.  Our foster guardians deliver dogs to their new homes for adoption trials and we do home visits to finalize all adoptions.  We therefore require applicants to live within an hours drive of Cary NC.   INTERESTED IN ADOPTING PETER?
