My story

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

Kira is a gorgeous American Leopard Hound blend who is a super fun, playful and loving girl. She is very easy to leash walk and will provide countless hours of enjoyment watching her run zoomies and playing with you. She is a fantastic running and hiking partner. Kira has a gorgeous thick coat of fur and understands several commands. She is a 1 year old, 40# gal, spayed and completely current on her vaccinations. Kira should probably be your one and only girl. Her adoption fee is 250.00~~If you are interested in this animal, you can complete the questionnaire found on the available pets page of our website http://hbpr.org. You can also email homeward@ellijay.com, contact us on facebook at https://www.facebook.com/HBPR30540/ or call 706-698-4663.


Thank you for considering a rescue dog or cat! Don't shop when you can adopt!

Go meet their pets

We hold monthly adoption open houses at our kennel in Ellijay, Ga. We also arrange to do adoptions at the kennel by appointment. So if one of our pets pulls at your heart, contact us and we will set up a "meet and greet" to start the adoption process.

Adoptions are held at other various locations from time to time around the Gilmer County / Ellijay area.

Please contact us at homeward@ellijay.com for more information as to additional times/locations or to make an appointment to visit our kennel!

More about this rescue

Homeward Bound is a 501(c)(3) non-profit, no-kill organization based in Gilmer County, Georgia, which began in August 2000. We are dedicated to providing a safe and nurturing environment for unwanted companion animals, while actively seeking permanent homes through our adoption programs. We take in dogs and cats that are found as strays, owner surrenders and abandoned. We also take animals out of high kill shelters to prevent them from being euthanized. We have rescued and adopted out about 7,000 animals.
