Shepherd and Terrier Dogs Available for Adoption in Waxhaw, North Carolina

Ann is a tiny Shepherd/Terrier mix with a big future ahead of her. She came into our care at just 2 weeks old after her mom was hit by a car. Working alongside another rescue, we were able to step in and save Ann and her littermates.

As a bottle baby, Ann has been raised with lots of hands-on care, love, and around-the-clock attention. Now at 4-weeks-old (as of 5/1/26), she's growing stronger every day and beginning to reach those sweet puppy milestones.

If you're ready to help a tiny survivor grow into an amazing dog, Ann would love to be part of your family.
