• “Owen is a grumpy old man that loves to be with humans more than other dogs. He’s trained and mature.“

  — Karolina P.

• “My name is Owen and I was found my my mom. I just showed up and she took me in. I love my brother Hank and love trotting along side my mom going on adventures with her“

  — Sarah V.

• “I like to play by myself or with people. Dogs other than my brother annoy me. I love the outdoors and exploring.“

  — Jackie M.

• “Hey there, I’m Owen! I’m an 8-year-old Heinz 57 (aka a little bit of everything) with a big ol' heart! Sure, I’ve got a few medical quirks, but that doesn’t stop me—I’m full of energy and love to live life like I’m 4! I’m on a fancy prescribed hydrolyzed protein diet (fancy, right?), but it keeps me feeling great so I can keep up with all my adventures. I live with my awesome family: my human mom, Jasmine, who spoils me, and my human dad, Mark, who’s pretty cool too. Then there’s my stubborn little sister, Slinky, the dachshund—I love her even when she’s being sassy. Oh, and we’ve got reptiles and a hamster at home! I’ve learned they aren’t big on snuggles, but they’re still part of the pack. My absolute favorite thing? Daycare once a week! I get to run around, make new friends, and play to my heart’s content. When I’m not at daycare, I sometimes get to hit up Sniffspots, where I explore, try out agility toys, and maybe snag a few treats (as long as they fit my special diet). When I’m not busy being awesome, I’m curled up with my humans, being the best good boy there ever was. Life’s good when you’re Owen!“

  — Jasmine L.

• “Hi, my name is Owen I’m a little spitfire, but I can also be sweet. But I’m a very handsome boy.“

  — Jamie H.

• “Owen is a lowkey guy that loves to sniff and explore, but he will get some zoomies out for a few minutes too! He is very curious and follows wherever his nose leads him, which can sometimes get him into trouble. He is very people-oriented and attached to me at the hip, but usually doesn’t pay much attention to other dogs.“

  — Emilie P.

• “Owen is a 9yr old brown and white Lab/Pointer mix. Owen was born in Colorado and we moved to NC in Oct 2024. Owen has been used to camping, hiking and running in the snow, streams and reservoirs all his life. We moved from a house to an apt with the job relocation, so looking to get Owen out ro run and explore.“

  — Jose R.

• “Little dog with a big personality. While he enjoys playing with dogs his size, he's very comfortable with big pups, too. Fast, fast, fast.“

  — Heather L.

• “I was only supposed to be a foster, but I got so attached to this family and I am so glad they adopted me! I really couldn’t imagine being anywhere else. I am just a really happy boy that my excitement and energy bubbles over. I absolutely love being outdoors, everywhere, all around. I love all the smells of being outdoors, exploring and of course running!!! I have a lot of zoomie energy to expend and I really get bored just being at home.“

  — Christine G.

• “I'm big. But I'm still a puppy brain. I don't know how big I am.“

  — Jeff P.

• “Owen is a 3 year old pug that loves to play! He does agility, FastCat, scentwork and is starting a few more sports!“

  — Cherie M.

• “I have an super sensitive schnazola; love smelling new smells (and old ones too). Enjoy humans and canines equally. Walking with my mom is great; but I dream about running leash-less on grass.“

  — Marie T.

• “Hi there, my name is Owen! My mom adopted me when I was just 4 months old from a shelter in tri cities. I just turned 9 years old but boy I don’t act like it! I love love love people, children, kittens, bunnies, and birds but I don’t like other doggos much, they scare me. I love my mom and dad very much, especially when they take me to sniff spots!“

  — Nicole B.
