Also known as the Bantu Dog or the Zulu Dog, the breed developed in South Africa and it is basically comprised of similar breeds that are originally from the area. However, dog historians have acquired enough evidence to conclude that, originally, the breed lived in the East and Middle East and migrated to Africa in ancient times. The Zulu Dog is a perfect companion for people, whether we are talking about more traditional activities like hunting or herding, or simply about the pleasure of having a dog companion. The Afghan Hound Elegance and Distinction If the old saying that claims that dogs and masters resemble each other is true, then the Afghan hound is surely the dog most likely to be seen in the presence of an aristocrat. Its silky, thick coat will match any of its masters' designer dresses or elegant suits. Distinguished in looks and personality, this is one of the breeds that you can't stop looking at when seeing on the street and that you are very likely to see at a dog show. The Aidi Dog A Perfect Watchdog Of Moroccan origin, the Aidi dog evolved as a watchdog for herds of goats and sheep. For this reason, it has heightened senses that are very good at detecting threats and its instincts are perfectly in tune, resulting in a speedy and efficient reaction. These characteristics are also perfect for a hunting dog - so it is also very good at filling that role. Very courageous, this breed has evolved in the Morrocan mountains, protecting itself and its owners from many vicious predators like wildcats, but also from strangers. Also called the Berber (it was commonly used by Berber tribes), this breed is very similar to Pariah dogs - to which it is believed to be related. Affenpinscher Dogs Cute Fluffy and Funny When first taking a look at an Affenpinscher dog, most people cannot help but smile: its cute, fluffy, hairy appearance and the constant smile it seems to be wearing will cheer up just about anybody. Also known as the monkey dog, it is very suited for someone who has a sense of humor and for whom the entertainment factor is very important when buying a pet. Most of the time, the Affie (as some will affectionately call him) is in a very good mood and more than willing to put on a show to entertain his masters. |

Stray animals are held for three days before they are eligible to be released for adoption. This time period allows a current owner time to reclaim a lost pet. During this period the animal will be evaluated to determine their temperament and general health. We try our best to give as much information as possible about every animal up for adoption, but please remember that many times our ability to obtain information is limited. Owner surrendered animals can immediately be put up for adoption and we generally have much more information about these animals. We try very hard to find homes for the animals, but this is not always possible. In the interest of community safety, we do not offer for adoption, any vicious or aggressive animals. Most of the animals we receive have not been vaccinated and may be harboring contagious diseases. We try very hard to identify these animals and isolate them as quickly as possible. Although we make diligent efforts, using a comprehensive health evaluation to ensure the health of every animal made available for adoption, on occasion an adopted pet will become sick. If this occurs within a one-week period, please let us know and we will refund your money or allow you the opportunity to select another pet from our shelter. Please understand that if your pet becomes sick (within the one-week period) you should return him/her to the shelter. The Shelter WILL NOT accept ANY financial responsibility (including veterinarian bills) for the animal you have adopted. The majority of the animals up for adoption are already spayed and/or neutered. If animals are too young to be spayed and/or neutered, appointments will be set by the shelter. The expense for this service (when required) is covered in the adoption fee. Our phone number is 336-357-0805. To see the adoptable pets for Davidson County Animal Shelter click here Return to list
