Meet Coosa! Coosa is a handsome 1 year-old boy who appears to be a Lab/Beagle/Vizsla mix (his mom looks mostly Vizsla). He’s the lovebug of the Creek Bank Puppies—always wanting to be close, and happiest when he’s in your lap! This sweet boy is an expert at surprise kisses and knows how to make everyone smile. Coosa is a happy-go-lucky, energetic goofball who’s learning his manners and has already come such a long way since arriving! He’s great with kids, dogs, and cats, and is sure to bring joy and laughter wherever he goes. Coosa has been neutered, vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped, and is heartworm negative.

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained,

Story

Meet Hannah – The Gentle Matriarch Hannah is a beautiful 8-year-old Hound mix with a heart as big as her floppy ears! She’s a calm, well-behaved girl who just wants to be near her people and enjoy the simple comforts of life. Hannah’s look is as unique as her personality — she has a little extra skin and a slightly crooked snout, likely from birth, that only adds to her one-of-a-kind charm. This amazing girl was rescued from a hoarding situation involving 17 dogs and puppies. Many have since found their forever homes, but a few, including some believed to be Hannah’s daughters, are still waiting for their happily-ever-after. We think Hannah was the matriarch of the group, and her nurturing nature truly shines through. Since joining the rescue, Hannah has completed her heartworm treatment and is now heartworm negative! She’s also learning new skills every day — including leash walking, crate training, and she’s completely housebroken! Hannah has been spayed, fully vaccinated, and dewormed, and she’s ready to find a loving home to call her own. Adoption Fee: $250 If you’re looking for a loyal, gentle companion with a heart full of love, Hannah would love to meet you! June 15, 2026, 11:33 pm

Blondie

Belgian Malinois/German Shepherd Dog

Female, Adult

Attalla, AL

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained,

Story

Blondie is a stunning 9-year-old German Shepherd and Malinois mix weighing 58 lbs. She is a highly intelligent, focused dog who requires a handler with extensive experience in working breeds and protection training. Based on her behaviors, it appears she began professional protection training in the past that was never fully completed. She possesses a strong, confident personality and has the potential to be an exceptional companion for a person who understands how to provide the structure and leadership these breeds require. Despite likely spending the earlier part of her life outdoors, Blondie has transitioned remarkably well to life inside and is fully housebroken. She has been making excellent progress with her current training and is eager to work. However, due to her high drive and dominant nature, she must be the only pet in the home. She is not compatible with children or cats and shows dominance toward other dogs. Blondie is fully prepared for her forever home. She is spayed, heartworm negative, fully vaccinated, and dewormed. Her adoption fee is $250. We are seeking a dedicated, experienced owner who can continue her training and provide the focused environment she needs to thrive.June 15, 2026, 11:33 pm

Story

Jax was found wondering the campus of Jacksonville State University 3 years ago at Christmas. He has been with us ever since but we are currently living with relatives while we look for a place and they are afraid of bully breeds and frankly we can’t afford to find a place quickly…if we had another choice we would absolutely keep him he is a big sweet very smart baby who thinks he is a purse dog and loves piling up in your lap…
