My story

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

Rookie is a male Boxer/Lab mix with a big heart and a sweet loving disposition. He adores people and is very friendly and affectionate, big on hugs and sloppy kisses! This handsome hunk weighs 65 lbs and was born July 2018. An active pup, Rookie is the perfect companion for an adult or family with older children. He loves playing outdoor games like fetch and tug of war, and would make a great trail buddy. Rookie has done well with other dogs. Rookie is ready to begin a new chapter of his life. Are you ready to meet your new best buddy?To adopt this pet, please go to hsnwga.org, 'Adoption' then 'Application for Adoption', to complete an online application to be preapproved. Due to the high volume of applications received, our Adoption Coordinator will only contact the applicant that best meets the needs of the pet.

Additional adoption info

Tour/Adoption Hours:

Fridays: 3pm – 5pm
Saturdays: 11am – 2pm

During adoption hours we have volunteers available to show dogs and cats to the public. For safety/insurance reasons we can only allow those 12 years or older to go into the dog kennel wing of the shelter. We ask all visitors not to stick their fingers/hands into the dog kennels. Our adoptable dogs and cats are viewable through our website. Everyone interested in applying for a dog or cat must submit an application through our website. We receive multiple applications for each animal. Applications for particular animals are based on best fit for each animal based on each animal’s behaviors and needs. An application not being selected for a particular animal does not necessarily mean the application was denied, but just that another application was approved.
