My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hey, did you see that?! Did ya? Did ya?” That would be what Atticus would say if he could talk! He is a curious and energetic ball of cuteness. He wakes up with a positive puppy attitude and is so very eager to please. He has learned many commands in the span of seconds, and walking on a leash was one of his first A+s. A bonus to all of that intelligence is that he is a real lover. He loves kisses, hugs, and just being around you. On top of all that love he bestows on his foster humans, he saves some love and spunk for his three foster fur-siblings. He has yet to meet a person or dog that he doesn’t love, actually!

His story is interesting in that as a puppy he was rescued from a shelter with his siblings, with a broken hip and leg. That hasn’t stopped him. All healed up and off bed rest he can run and play with the best of them. You should meet him and see that spark in his eyes! You’ll want to take him home right away!!

Atticus is a male/n lab mix born ~April 2015. He is crate trained housebroken. He will weigh approximately 45 pounds when full-grown.

AS WITH ALL YOUNG PUPS, this puppy will need constant supervision when not crated. Puppies will chew and get into trouble as any puppy would. A puppy needs a leader and someone to teach the basics of house training, obedience, and behavior. At the ages of 10-16 weeks, puppies tend to tire easily and take lots of naps. As they get older, they will need more exercise (walks, hikes, playing fetch, etc) to expend their energy and to be happy and healthy.

Don't get us wrong, we love puppies! However, we also want those interested in adopting a wee canine to make a thoughtful decision, be realistic in behavior expectations, and be prepared to provide proper and kind leadership.

For more information on our adoption process, please visit our website at www.youluckydogrescue.org and read our Adoption FAQ's and Before You Adopt documents. In addition you can complete an online adoption application from our website. You can also email info@youluckydogrescue.org for additional details.

Our adoption fee is $250 and includes all age appropriate vaccines, spay or neuter and microchipping. The breed and age included in this listing is based upon the opinion of a vet that has examined the dog. We cannot confirm the age of the dog unless the dog was born in the care of the rescue. We are located in the metro Atlanta area. We currently do not allow out of state adoptions as a home check is required as part of the adoption process.
