Story
Rubix is such a sweet pup. He loves attention, loves his playtime with his buddy and is "over the moon cute". Well mannered, already house trained and would be a perfect addition to a loving family. Rubix would be a great partner for hikes, camping and just "hanging out". A volunteer favorite, we are all shocked he hasn't found his forever, loving home. A home with a fenced yard would be great for this active fun pup.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.

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
Meet Boomer A Dapper Duo Looking for a New Adventure Boozer and Boomer are a wonderful pair of seven-year-old mixed-breed gentlemen who are ready to find their new start. They have lived together their entire lives with the same loving family and get along famously, so they are the perfect ready-made pair for a home looking to add two amazing dogs at once! While they're a great team, Boozer and Boomer are not a co-dependent "bonded pair," which means they are also open to being adopted separately if the perfect single-dog home comes along. They're confident, well-adjusted dogs who would thrive either together or in their own individual homes. Both of these handsome boys are described as very dog-friendly, so they'd be great additions to a home with existing canine companions. Their previous owner describes them as beautiful, gentle, and well-behaved. What We Know About Boozer & Boomer: * Age: 7 years old * Breed: Mixed Breed * Personality: Gentle, well-behaved, and very dog-friendly * Status: A great pair who get along well, but are not a bonded pair and can be adopted together or separately. * History: Owner surrender, same owner their whole life. Boozer and Boomer are ready to share their love and friendship with a new family. They have so much love to give and would make a wonderful addition to any home.

Story
🌸 Meet Annabelle – Sweet, Calm, and So Ready for Love 🌸 Annabelle is a fully vetted 3-year-old Heeler/Pitbull mix who currently weighs about 67 lbs — and she’s loved food a little extra since getting spayed, so she’s carrying a bit of happy weight right now. 🍗❤️ She’s a very calm, gentle girl who isn’t overly active, but she’d do great with a family willing to take her on daily walks to help her get back in shape and enjoy some fresh air. 🐾 Annabelle came into rescue in February 2025 in rough shape, with some hair loss from flea allergies and scars around her face. With time, care, and love, she’s looking so much better — and her true beauty is shining through. ✨ She’s sweet and easygoing, playful with other dogs but also perfectly content to just relax. Whether she’s hanging out with a canine buddy or soaking up attention as the only dog, Annabelle is happy as long as she has people who love her. 💕 She gets along wonderfully with children. (We’re not sure about cats just yet.) One of her favorite things is curling up on a soft couch next to her family — she’s not high-energy or high-maintenance, just a snuggly companion who wants to be near her people. 🛋️ The only thing that rattles her a little are thunderstorms. During storms, she may need some calming support like CBD or, even better, the comfort of her human nearby to remind her she’s safe. 📍 Located in Cleveland, TN 🚗 Transport available to other states 💰 Adoption fee: $150 Annabelle has been through a lot, but she’s blossomed into the sweetest soul who’s so ready to start her forever chapter. Could you be the one to give this beautiful girl the cozy, loving home she deserves? 💞

She’s nothing but love and happy energy! 📍 Located in Cleveland, TN 🚗 Transport available to other states 💰 Adoption fee: $150 ✨ Prissy is playful, loyal, and oh-so-sweet.
