This week’s Adopt-A-Pet is Cubby from Orange County Animal Services!

Cubby is a male, tan Boxer mix who staff estimates is around 2 years and 11 months old. According to Animal Services, Cubby is a lap dog who “just wants to get all the affection and treats.”

“[Cubby] is a sweet boy. He’s just a little skiddish,” said Cooper Hatch from Orange County Animal Services. “He did not want to get in the car this morning, but once he was in, he was good.”

To learn more about Cubby and the rest of the animals available through Orange County Animal Services, visit their website.

Due to COVID-19, the Animal Services facility is closed to the public with the exception of curbside and virtual appointments made in advance. If you are interested in a pet that is currently listed as available for adoption OR available for foster, please call 919-942-7387, option 3, to speak with a staff member at the adoption desk.
