My story

*Shepard Mix*55lbs; 2 yrs 6mos old*Friendly, happy faced fella! Here with his bestie ANTONIO.*Does well in group play dates.*Fox TV Spot: https://www.foxcarolina.com/video/2025/08/26/four-legged-friends-antonio-vinny/*CBS`s Your Carolina 4 Legged Friends Spot: https://www.wspa.com/your-carolina/furry-friend-friday-with-oconee-humane-and-the-italian-boys/*Foster update Sept 7: It’s going so well! They are soooo good and have not made any accidents! They are nervous outside but we are working on that along with them knowing their names. *Fox TV Wags Event: https://www.foxcarolina.com/.../17/wags-whiskers-fundraiser/Meet the most adored and treasured sibling pair VINNY and ANTONIO, aka The Italians. These handsome boys arrived as owner surrenders several months ago and despite repeated efforts to match them up with their new family, still we have not yet found them. We totally believe in this loving, happy and slightly goofy pair so we`re glad you are tuned in to learn more about them now!! Perhaps you can help!! We have had The Italians off site doing a variety of activities in the community. Most recently, we had them on Fox Carolina news at our annual fundraising event Wags and Whiskers. They snuggled right up to Kendra Kent, host of 4 Legged Friends, as she shared them with her audience once again hoping to get them home. Despite all the action/activity in front of the club house (location of event), still they were fantastic- Vinny was climbing in Kendra`s lap while Antonio got comfy and was rolling around on his back. Prior to this outing, we had them at a fundraiser on the Clemson campus- Puppy Yoga- where their job was to walk rows of students in a yoga class with the goal of enhancing their experience and helping them relax. They were huge hits! A week prior, they were boating on Lake Keowee. Superb in the car ride to the lake, while a little hesitant on the boat initially, still they beautifully got into the groove of things. We learned that they were not interested in swimming but were OK in treating the lake like their private, super large water bowl! One of their first outings was to a local park where they beautifully explored around with their Clemson student chauffeurs. Of note, we have had them on 2 TV news sets (in addition to the TV time at the fundraiser), one in Greenville SC- a one hour drive from the shelter and one at a local park 30 min away. They lov
