Pet of the Week Nov 27, 2025: CHESS is a radio star, the life of the party and a mellow, happy boy who needs a home. He’s 5 years young, a small 38lb heart worm positive terrier mix. Chess visited Rock 94.7 WWBD as Pet of the Week and loved his day out. Accompanied by a staff member and a volunteer Chess was such a good boy. His volunteer friend said “Chess is wonderful, pocket-sized, friendly, middle-aged, and ready for you to come take him home. His salt and pepper coat and eager kisses give him just the right touch of rugged handsome heartthrob. He is good with other dogs, loves people, and loooooves toys! His toys might be the center of his universe while stuck in our shelter, but you can show him how awesome it feels to have toys AND a home. He gets excited about going for a car ride and is backseat driving wherever you want to go. He is perfecting his leash skills to tag along on any adventure. He has so much love and life to offer a great family that's willing to take a chance on a boy that's all fluff on the inside.”
More about Chess Jan 16, 2026: Chess also does well with kids! He thoroughly enjoyed playing at one of the Birthday parties, letting them dress him up with a party hat then running around with his toy. Chess…dog friendly, loves people and his toys, good on a leash, and a nice compact size. Chess’s scars show he’s had a hard past, but please look beyond that. Watch his videos. He deserves a family who will love him. Located in Hartsville, SC.

Oz - SAFE - sponsored for HW treatment

Foster Update Jan 26, 2026: Oz just got back from a fun few-day foster vacation, and he absolutely nailed it. While hanging out with some college guys (and going on a field trip!), Oz showed everyone what a total gem he is. In three days, he had zero accidents, happily went into his crate without a peep, and never barked. He’s the kind of dog who rolls with the flow—crate one night, snuggled in bed the next, no complaints either way. His fosters describe him as super cuddly, sweet, and easy-going. Oz loves tug toys and chasing a ball, and he’s always happy to be part of the action (even trying to “help” with ping pong—adorable chaos included). Honestly, everyone who’s spent time with Oz has only good things to say about him. If you’re looking for a loving, well-mannered, go-with-the-flow kind of dog, Oz might just be your perfect match. Come meet this sweet boy—you’ll see why everyone falls for him.
Pet of the Week Jan 28, 2026: SMILE says our good boy OZ! He’s had a busy few days, going off on a sleepover adventure and then visiting Pet of the Week on Rock94.7WWBD radio. OZ is a 2 year old, 38lb heart worm positive terrier mix that’s available for rescue or adoption. He’s dog friendly, crate trained, housebroken, good on a lead, and a great traveller!
