Story
I'm at our Oglethorpe Street shelter! If you want to adopt me, come to 71 Oglethorpe St. NW between 12-7 pm Tuesday-Sunday or visit humanerescuealliance.org/how-to-adopt to learn more.Hey there, I'm Banshee. One of those "little dog, big attitude" pups. Yea, that's right. I know what I like and want and I'm pretty good about letting everyone know. So, there I was running on the streets trying to look tough, but hey, when you are only 15 pounds that's kinda hard to do. But I gave it my best shot! I'm really a nice doggie but you must go slow with me. Oh, and you need to bring yummy snacks to win my heart. I need adopters that can take their time with me and let me settle at my own pace. Ready for a cute doggie with a hint of sass? Come on down to HRA and meet me- and bring some chicken snacks!Head to this link to see how we've been responding to Canine Influenza in shelter and working to keep it from spreading in the community!https://www.humanerescuealliance.org/blog/posts/what-you-need-to-know-about-canine-influenza

Story
Blu is a very loving cuddling dog that loves to sleep play cuddle & be around you he is nice & protective around kids he’s very bark reactive towards noise & sometimes unfamiliar people but isn’t harmful Blu is 6yrs old Born sep 3 2017 Blu is semi pad trained Blu eats taste of the wild for small breeds or authority chicken or breed for small breeds Blu eats beggin dog treats Blu sneaks eating table food Blu should be good with other dogs but may be scared or try to show fake toughness possibly more so with big dogs The website says he needs to be neutered but he doesn’t need to be neutered in my opinion

Story
Male, ~3 years old, ~12 lbs. Approximate Age: ~3 years old   Approximate Weight/Size: Small   Good with: Dogs, Kids over 10   Not tested with: Cats   My name is Echo and they claim I'm a chihuahua mix.. and who am I to dispute it! I am a 3 year old male and weigh 12 lbs. (dripping wet). I am good with other dogs and kids over 10, but I'd probably be better with no kids. Now cats could be a different story since I haven't been tested with them yet. I came in as a stray and I had a very bad skin issue. This is not a good combination when you want to put your best paw forward. But I've recovered nicely but I still love to get all the TLC! I am kind of on the nervous side (and who wouldn't be with what I've been through!). I am shy with strangers and need some time to warm up when I'm in your presence. I wouldn't mind getting some treats and presents too. I don't like the city life and prefer being away from that environment where its a bit quieter. It would be great if I could have a backyard, or maybe a dog park, that I could call my own (I hope that's not asking too much!).   The real important stuff here includes that I'm crate trained, potty trained, food motivated, housetrained, and low energy level. I will need some work gaining confidence and trust with my new people, but if you're willing to spend time with me, I'd really appreciate it.  I could be a diamond in the ruff!  I'll return the favor with how cute and sweet I am!   Thanks for checking me out. Good things can come in small packages.  Your pal. Echo     Adoption Application: http://bit.ly/adoptrdr My adoption fee includes: Spay/Neuter Surgery (unless I'm too to young!)
