Every Saturday, LKNConnect introduces you to one special rescue pet searching for something every animal deserves—a safe, loving forever home.
Some pets lose their families because of illness or the passing of an owner. Others find themselves in rescue through circumstances beyond their control. Whatever brought them here, their next chapter can be filled with love, comfort and companionship.
That’s the purpose behind LKNConnect Rescue Pet of the Week.
Working closely with AnimalCity and Piedmont Animal Rescue, we share the stories of remarkable rescue animals with the Lake Norman community in hopes of making that one important connection—the person or family who sees a face, reads a story and says, “That’s the one.”
Whether it’s a dog, cat, rabbit, hamster, bird or another deserving companion animal, every featured pet has one thing in common: they’re waiting for someone to love.
This week, we’d like you to meet Lady. And we have a feeling she just might steal your heart.
Lady is an affectionate, playful Shepherd/Australian Kelpie mix with a fun personality and a whole lot of love to give. She loves playing ball, romping in the yard, and gently herding her foster siblings. Once playtime is over, she’s ready for belly rubs, snuggles, and hanging out with her favorite people. And if you have apple slices, you’re already off to a good start!
Lady does well with other dogs after slow introductions. She can be protective of her home, so she also needs slow, patient introductions to new people. Give her the time and space to feel comfortable, and once you earn her trust, you’ll see just how loving and loyal she can be.
She continues to warm up to her foster dad and adores him when foster mom isn’t available. Men may take a little longer for her to trust, so patience is important. Cheese, apples, and a good game of fetch certainly don’t hurt!
Lady is very smart and a quick learner. Her house training is going great with no accidents so far, and she even taught herself to ring the bells when she needs to go outside.
Lady is looking for someone who understands that the best relationships sometimes take a little time. Give her patience, consistency, and the chance to trust you at her own pace, and you’ll have an incredibly loving and devoted best friend.
LKNConnect is proud to work with AnimalCity and Piedmont Animal Rescue, two organizations committed to giving rescue pets the second chances they deserve.
Through their rescue, foster and adoption efforts, these organizations help animals in need find the safety, care and loving homes they deserve.
Through LKNConnect Rescue Pet of the Week, we’re helping bring their work—and, most importantly, their wonderful animals—to the attention of the Lake Norman community.
Together, we’re hoping to make that one special connection that changes everything.
This week, that connection could be Mini
Piedmont Animal RescueApplications can be filled out at www.piedmontanimalrescue.com/adopt! Petfinder and Adopt-A-Pet does NOT send us Applications.
If you believe Lady could be the perfect addition to your family, contact Piedmont Animal Rescue to learn more about the adoption process or to schedule a visit.
Not everyone can adopt a pet—but everyone can help save one.
If Lady isn’t the right fit for your family, please consider sharing this story with your friends, neighbors, and social media followers. One simple share could introduce Mini to the person who has been searching for a loyal companion.
Together, the Lake Norman community can help more rescue pets find the loving homes they deserve.
Because every pet deserves a second chance… and every forever home begins with a single introduction.
At LKNConnect, we believe communities are built through connections—not only between people and local businesses, but also between people and the pets who need them most.
Every adoption changes two lives: the life of a rescue pet and the life of the family who welcomes them home.
We hope you’ll join us every Saturday as we introduce another remarkable rescue pet searching for a forever home.
Together, let’s create more happy endings—one pet at a time.
