My story

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

Meet Red, aka BIG RED, named such because he’s got the long lean look of a well-muscled, elegant red thoroughbred. A right handsome hunk!



Found as a stray on a popular dog dumping dirt road, he is a sweet, distinguished senior gentleman, with the most engaging amber eyes that lock with yours and make saying no very challenging.  A little grey on his muzzle and a slight limp only add to his character. Pretty chill & mellow. Very loyal to his person. Sociable with people and other dogs; but sorry, NO cats.



Red will lean in for a for a head scratch and roll over for a belly rub. He loves his sun almost as much as he loves “his” recliner. He thinks his person should naturally just want to share their couch or chair with him, and given a choice, he thinks people beds are far preferable to a dog bed. After a morning romp and check of the perimeter, he is quite content to chill quietly inside with his family or bask on the deck.



His DNA results show a rather eclectic family tree, but whatever he is, he is 100% cool dog.



Red is 8ish, 55 lbs. Neutered, vetted, chipped, parasite free – all that good stuff. Available thru Dirt Road Doggies Rescue

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Adoption is a four part process.

Application: You will be required to submit general information along with personal and vet references.

Home visit: Potential adopters will receive a home visit by one of our members.

Meet -n- Greet: All family members (fur babies included) must meet the foster parent and pup they wish to adopt.

Here at Dirt Road Doggies Rescue, each adoption contribution is a flat rate per dog. We do not adjust this rate based on the "popularity" of a dog. We believe every dog is worthy of an owner that sees the value in them. Each adoption contribution is used to cover the expenses incurred for that dog and other dogs in our program.

Go meet their pets

Dirt Road Doggies Rescue, INC is located in the quaint town of Gillsville, in the foothills of the Georgia Mountains, just south of Gainesville. Our rescues are fostered in loving homes located in Hall, Jackson, and neighboring counties.

More about this rescue

We are a small canine rescue group located in Northeast Georgia that works tirelessly to rescue, rehabilitate, fully vet, and re-home faithful dogs that have been tossed out of cars onto rural roads. We are a registered, 501c3 tax deductible Non Profit Rescue and we are licensed by the Georgia Department of Agriculture

All dogs in our program have been previously reported to animal control to ensure they were not lost pups who had a family diligently looking for them. We do not turn a dog away due to breed, health concerns, or age. It is our goal to keep these dogs out of animal shelters, thus saving their lives and providing more time to the dogs already in shelters to find their forever family.
