Story
Meet Piper— an adorable Chihuahua mix! (Perhaps a Chiweenie?) She is around two years old and weighs about 13 pounds. Piper found herself in a local shelter after being seized by authorities in a horrific hoarding case. Due to her lack of socialization, she was at risk for euthanasia. Thankfully, Tiny Paws was able to step up and save her! Due to her past, Piper is a nervous girl and is still learning how to trust, love, and feel safe in this world! Piper’s journey in her foster home hasn’t always been easy, but she’s made great progress. She is still very skittish and easily startled, so she’s looking for an experienced, calm, and understanding adopter who can continue the gentle, patient care she’s been receiving in her foster home. She enjoys snuggling and playing with her foster siblings and we would love to see her go to a home with a confident dog around her size to help show her the ropes! What Piper needs most is a consistent environment where she can continue to blossom at her own pace. With time, love, and patience, we know this sweet girl will continue to shine! Piper is not comfortable on a leash and will require a secure, private fenced-in yard where she can safely play, explore, and potty. Due to her skittish nature, she would not do well in a home with children or with frequent young visitors. A generous supporter is sponsoring part of Piper’s adoption fee. Her adoption fee is $75. ******************** Preference is given to applicants located within the metro Atlanta area. Applications from outside this area may be considered under certain circumstances.

Story
Preston is a 2-year-old mixed breed cutie who weighs 14 pounds. Preston and his sister Penny came from a hoarding situation that landed them in a local county shelter. Due to their skittish nature and fear of humans, they were at a high risk for euthanasia. Luckily for them, Tiny Paws was able to step up and pull them from the shelter. They have since come a long way. Penny has found herself a new home and now we are looking for a foster-to-adopt or adopter for Preston. We are confident he will thrive in the right home. Preston has made so much progress in his foster home and is ready for a forever home to call his own. He needs a home with a fenced yard where he can safely run and play, and ideally a dog friend around his size or larger than him that can continue to show him the ropes of the sweet life! He enjoys playing in the yard with the other dogs in his foster home, but also loves playing with toys, even by himself! He will toss a toy up in the air and entertain himself. When he is done playing, he likes to curl up on the couch for a nap. We know he will continue to thrive with the right family. If you feel Preston may be the right fit for your home, apply today! A generous supporter is sponsoring part of Preston’s adoption fee. His adoption fee is now $75. ******************** Preference is given to applicants located within the metro Atlanta area.

Story
Pork Chop is an absolute love bug who lives for companionship and cozy moments. His favorite hobbies include snuggling close, taking long dreamy naps, and going for walks. He has a mellow spirit and is happiest curled up beside you, but he’s also always ready for an adventure whenever you are.He rides well in the car, knows his commands, and is a very good eater. Pork Chop gets along with both dogs and cats—he’s gentle and social, though he isn’t afraid to give a polite growl if another pet accidentally steps on him. He’ll happily play with small toys, especially if you join in on the fun.One of Pork Chop’s sweetest quirks is how much he loves being close to his people—he’s even content being carried around if you need some extra snuggles. He truly just wants to be loved and included.If you’re looking for a loyal, cuddly, calm companion with a big heart and an even bigger capacity for love, Pork Chop might be your perfect match.

Story
📌 Important Adoption Information All of our dogs are currently living in private shelters or foster homes in South Korea. Once an adoption is approved, dogs will travel to the United States through legal and approved international transport procedures. Video calls are available prior to adoption, and adopters can communicate with our rescue team in real time through our official organization and app-based messaging channels throughout the process. • Rescue Story: This sweetheart was found wandering alone on a street in South Korea in Feb 2024. Sadly, he ended up in a high-risk shelter and on the euthanasia list. Thankfully, the rescue team stepped in just in time, giving him a second chance at life. While having heartworm treatment in a clinic, Mallow moved into his foster home in July 2024. Now, he’s ready to find his forever family! • Personality: Calm, Sweet, Shy Mallow needs a little time and space to feel comfortable, but once he does, he’ll open up beautifully. It may take patience, but winning his heart will be one of the most rewarding experiences ever! He is such a cuddle bug! • Affinity with -Cats: Not interested in cats on walks -Dogs: a huge dog-lover! Very friendly with other dogs regardless of size. He would adjust better in a home with another dog! -Adults/Kids: Good with adults. / Not a fan of kids - he would be the best fit in a home without children. • Housetrained: Fully housebroken, using pee pads indoors and going potty outdoors both. • Walking Manner: Very good on a leash! Wants to keep walks short. • Shedding: 5-6 • Food Allergies: No • Car Rides: Good • Barker or Quiet: Barks a little bit when hearing the loud noise from outside. • Separation Anxiety: He whimpers a little right after his foster family leaves home, but calms down soon. • Bathing/Brushing: Very good. • Likes & Dislikes: Loves treats, doggy friends, and cuddles! / Not a big fan of young kids • Health: Completed heartworm treatment in late 2024 and was cleared of infection by April 2025. Had a few teeth extracted this October due to root damage, but it doesn’t affect his ability to chew. Regular and thorough tooth brushing is essential. Otherwise, he’s a healthy boy! 💙 Adoption Fee Information The adoption fee already includes all major expenses, such as: International transportation, Customs and export documentation, Medical care (spay surgery, vaccinations, health certificate, deworming, etc.) For this reason, we kindly ask that you refrain from requesting a breakdown or negotiation of the adoption fee. Your support directly helps us continue rescuing and caring for dogs in need, and we sincerely appreciate your understanding.

Story
Meet Irving! Sweet little Irving was surrendered to RMG when his owner found themselves in some very unfortunate circumstances and unable to care for him.   Irving was a bit timid when he first arrived at his foster home but quickly learned that Foster Mom's lap was a pretty comfy spot to curl up and decompress after all the changes he had been through. He's been great with all of the other dogs and cats in his foster home and really enjoys making new dog friends - especially the girls! Irving is great on leash and loves going for a nice stroll on these lovely sunny days.    Interested in adopting this sweet little man? Email adrienne@rescuemega.org or fill out an adoption application on our website- www.rmgdogs.org ##2349703##

Meet Batman! Hi there! My name is Batman, and I’m a 6–7 year old sweetheart who found myself looking for a new home through no fault of my own. I may be carrying a little (okay, a lot!) of extra weight, but that just means I need a family who can help me with a healthy diet, some regular exercise, and plenty of love. I promise to reward you with loyalty, affection, and lots of tail wags as I work on becoming the best version of myself. If you think I might be the sidekick your family has been waiting for, please fill out an application at gahomelesspets.org ##435737##

Story
Meet Sprout! He is an adorable Pomeranian mix (we guess Pomeranian/Chihuahua AKA PomChi). He is around 1 year old and weighs 8 pounds. This sweet boy was found abandoned in a carrier at a gas station in southwest Atlanta. 💔😢 He was taken to a local shelter and from there Tiny Paws was able to step in and get him into a loving foster home. 🏠 Though he may have had a rough start, Sprout is still a loving little dog. He’s a true lap dog who loves snuggles and being close to his person. He enjoys toys and will entertain himself, though he’s more of a people-dog than a play-with-other-dogs kind of guy. He tolerates other dogs in his foster home well, but prefers not to engage in play. He can be a little anxious at times, but luckily does not experience separation anxiety. Sprout is quiet and content in his crate and doesn’t make a peep. To make this adorable little boy even better, he is perfectly house trained, making him an easy addition to the right home. Sprout would be happiest and feel safest in an adult-only home. In return, you’ll get a loyal, affectionate companion who just wants to be loved the way he has always deserved. ❤️ ******************** Sprout’s adoption fee is $500. He is fully vaccinated, neutered, microchipped, and heartworm negative. Preference is given to applicants located within the metro Atlanta area. Applications from outside this area may be considered under certain circumstances.
