Story
Meet our Wonder Dog, sweet Jewel! Imagine having a place to call home, yet never knowing the warmth of true love. Then, picture being pregnant and abandoned like trash in the remote wilderness of Little River Canyon, Alabama. No houses nearby. No help. No shelter from the cold or rain. This was Jewels reality. Alone and vulnerable, she braved freezing temperatures and pouring rain, giving birth to eight beautiful puppies with no one to care for her. Without shelter, she did the only thing she could: she hid her newborns under rocks and in hollow tree stumps, shielding them from predators. Every day, Jewel risked her life searching for food, doing everything in her power to keep her puppies safe and alive. One day, a kind person spotted Jewel and her litter by the roadside. He followed them into the canyon, where he found them, terrified and tucked away beneath rocks, desperately trying to remain unseen. We hurried to help, managing to rescue several puppies that day. Some, frightened, scattered and Jewel herself disappeared into the wild. The next day, she was seen again, bravely moving her babies to a new hiding place, always thinking of their safety. Thankfully, we were able to gather the rest of the puppies to safety, at last, all eight were secure. We set a humane trap for Jewel, and within hours, this courageous mother was finally safe, too. Now, Jewel and her puppies are in a loving foster home where she can finally rest and heal. Jewel is a Collie mix, weighing about 29 pounds. Though shes understandably shy at first, she has the gentlest heart. Once she feels safe, shell quietly climb into your lap and shower you with soft kisses. Shes wonderful with people, gets along well with other dogs, and has an incredibly gentle soul. After everything shes endured, Jewel deserves a home where shell never have to feel fear, hunger, or loneliness again. She has survived the wild to protect her babies, now, she just needs someone to give her the loving home she truly deserves.   Adoption Fee: $200 - Includes Fixed, Microchipped & Up to Date on Vaccines Please visit our website www.summitssanctuary.org to learn more about this amazing pet and to see other available dogs.

Story
Meet Leo, a vibrant border collie mix who weighs just a little under 70lbs. At 8 1/2 years young, Leo is still bursting with energy and enthusiasm. He thrives in the company of big dogs, and his best friend Cubby shares his love for exploring our scenic pond area. Leo has mastered the art of sitting, lying, and spinning, showcasing his intelligence and trainability. As he requires a fenced-in yard to prevent his curious nature from getting the better of him, a secure outdoor space is a must. Unfortunately, Leo needs a home with no small dogs or cats. Are you ready to welcome Leo into your life and share in his joy? He has been with us for over 2 years, and we can't wait to find him his forever home.To adopt this pet, please go to hsnwga.org, 'Adoption' then 'Application for Adoption', to complete an online application to be preapproved.

Story
A SWEET & FRIENDLY GIRL:  Approx. 1 year old / Approx. 37 lbs. Hello – I’m Katya!  I came to Mostly Mutts from animal control and am so grateful that they are dedicated to helping me find my furever home.  I recently spent a couple of days in a wonderful temporary foster home during the cold weather event, and I loved being a part of a loving home.  I spent some time in the prison/foster training program off-site and learned a lot!  I’m back at Mostly Mutts now and hope to be in my very own furever home soon!   • OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS:  I recently met dogs at Mostly Mutts, and I was friendly with them.  I also liked playing and wrestling with the 5-year-old female dog in my temp. foster home.  I can show dominant female behavior at times, so if you have a nice doggie at home already that wouldn’t mind this, let’s meet and see if we can be pals.  / Cats unknown. / I enjoyed the company of the two boys in my temp. foster home (ages 6 and 12 years old).  I can be a bit jumpy and playfully mouthy, so best no toddlers or small children that I may bump over or unintentionally nip during play. • PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL:  The volunteers say I am a gorgeous girl with the cutest, tiny ears.  My temp. foster said I was ‘just the sweetest’ and – after a nice walk or other exercise, I settle right in with a calm demeanor.  Young and playful, I can be a bit exuberant with my play, so I will need you to help me curb my mouthiness.  I’m just young and want to play!  Though I was a bit nervous for my shelter bath, I sought comfort by clinging to my bather and was very patient for that pesky ear cleaning. / My energy level is about 4-6 at the shelter but was  higher in my temp. foster home.  • SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY:  I’m a proud graduate of the Mostly Mutts University training program so I’ve learned the ‘sit’, ‘stay’, ‘down’, ‘come’, ‘drop it’, ‘leave it’ and ‘place’ commands.  I also use proper door etiquette and have good leash manners as well as accept nice strangers without jumping.  Let's continue my training as there are more classes I can take through the free lifetime training that Mostly Mutts offers for all their rescue dogs.  / I’ve had good crate manners at the shelter and during my recent 2-day visit in my temp foster home. / My potty habits were good in my temp. foster homes, but I am having a few accidents on the shelter schedule.  In one temp. foster home, I quickly learned to ring the potty bells on the back door to indicate that I needed to go after seeing my foster sister do it!  • LIKES/DISLIKES:  I love being with my people and even enjoy spending some fun time with that flat dog I see in the mirror! They do everything I do – while I am doing it – so crazy!  I love attention and will mouth at hands and legs to get it but I’m sure you can teach me not to do that.  I’m much more interested in being a people dog than playing with toys right now, but perhaps you can show me how much fun those can be.  I recently went on a day trip with a nice volunteer where I did well in the car and loved meeting new people, too! / I can’t think of any real dislikes, though I’m sure I wouldn’t like it if I didn’t get enough love, attention, exercise, and training. • MEDICAL:  I'm current on annual vaccinations, micro-chipped and spayed. I am looking for a home with a loving family who will cherish me as a furry family member!  My adoption fee is $299.00, and I’m located in Kennesaw, Ga.  March 4, 2026, 6:44 am
