My story

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

** I am currently being housed at our Oglethorpe location. Come meet me at 71 Oglethorpe St NW, every day from 12pm-7pm. Please arrive no later than 6:30 p.m. to allow ample time to interact with adoptable dogs. Or visit humanerescuealliance.org/how-to-adopt to learn more.**

Firby is a social butterfly! And just a fantastic dog bursting with love and energy. He is just a joyful pooch who loves playing and seems to really like playing with other like-minded doggies. Firby has made so many gains since he was found as an extremely emaciated dog. It was just heartbreaking to see such a beautiful animal so sad and neglected. Firby has rebounded and is so very ready to be a beloved family member. He needs a family that has the time and energy to meet his frisky agenda. LOTS of long, fun-filled walkies and adventures are what this handsome canine needs. He so wants to be a good boy and he is ready for positive training classes. Please visit this amazing dog today- he is wonderful!
