ATTENTION: THIS FORMER MAMA IS OFFICIALLY RETIRING FROM THE MOM BUSINESS! Hi, I'm Leela! I'm 3½ years old, weigh 53 pounds, and I'm a beautiful Pittie mix with a whole lot of love left to give. I came to the shelter as a stray, and it was pretty obvious I'd recently been busy raising a litter of puppies. Well, I've paid my dues, raised my kids, and I'm ready to turn in my mom badge! My new career goals include: Being someone's spoiled baby instead of someone's mama. Collecting all the toys. Yes, ALL of them. Making new human friends because I LOVE people! Finding some four-legged friends to hang out with. I get along well with other dogs, too! I'm sweet, playful, affectionate, and ready for a fresh start. No more midnight feedings or chasing after kids. This girl is ready for the good life! ADOPTION SPECIAL: My adoption fee is sponsored and reduced to just $90! My adoption fee includes: DHPP/Parvo vaccine Rabies vaccine Fecal test for parasites Basic dewormer Spay surgery Veterinary exam Microchip All that and a whole lot of Pittie love! If you're looking for a sweet adult dog, a lovable Pit Bull mix, or your next best friend, I might just be your girl! I'm waiting at Talladega Animal Control and ready to meet my forever family. Call 256-362-5856 to schedule an appointment to meet me! Let's make this next chapter ALL ABOUT LEELA! November 5, 2026, 10:57 am

STOP SCROLLING! YOUR FUTURE BEST FRIEND IS A LITTLE BRINDLE-COLORED WORK IN PROGRESS, AND SHE'S LOOKING FOR SOMEONE TO BELIEVE IN HER! Hi, everybody! My name is STORMY, and I've got a little catching up to do in the weight department, but I promise I'm worth every ounce of love you're willing to give! I arrived at Talladega Animal Control as a stray on November 2nd, and unfortunately, I was extremely underweight. I'm estimated to be about a year old and currently weigh just 33.8 pounds. The good news? I've already started gaining weight, and I'm making progress! Just imagine how gorgeous my brindle coat is going to look once I fill out and get back to a healthy weight! I'm going to be one beautiful girl! What do I need? Nothing fancy. Just a loving home, consistent meals, a little patience, and someone who understands that the best transformations happen with love. And here's what else you should know about me: I'm a VERY sweet girl. I get along well with other dogs. I've got a beautiful brindle coat. I'm still young, with lots of love and adventures ahead of me. I'm ready to start my next chapter with a family of my own! AND NOW FOR SOME REALLY GOOD NEWS! My adoption fee is SPONSORED and reduced to just $90! That includes my distemper/parvo vaccine, rabies vaccine, fecal test for parasites, basic dewormer, veterinary exam, spay, and microchip before I go home with you. I'm already working on getting healthier. Now I just need someone willing to give me the chance to grow, thrive, and become the beautiful, happy girl I'm meant to be. Could that someone be YOU? Call Talladega Animal Control at 256-362-5856 to schedule an appointment to meet me! PLEASE SHARE! Sometimes the dogs who need a little extra help are the ones who have the most love to give. Let's find this sweet girl the family she's been waiting for! Love, STORMY Approximately 1 year old. 33.8 pounds and gaining. Beautiful brindle girl. Sweet personality. Dog-friendly. Ready for a fresh start!  November 11, 2026, 4:53 am

BREAKING NEWS: FRANNIE HAS BEEN WAITING A WHOLE MONTH, AND APPARENTLY EVERYONE HAS LOST THEIR PHONE?! Excuse me?! Is there a technical issue with Facebook? Are my pictures not loading? Did someone forget to tell the humans I'm AVAILABLE?! HELLO, PEOPLE! I'M STILL HERE! My name is FRANNIE. I'm now 6 months old, weigh just 24.2 pounds, and have officially been waiting at Talladega Animal Control for a MONTH. And guess how many people have called or come to meet me? ZERO.

Future best friend extraordinaire. Still young enough to enjoy all the fun of puppyhood! Have you SEEN this gorgeous girl?! I'm rocking a beautiful gray coat, a whole lot of puppy charm, and enough personality to make your days more entertaining.  I'm looking for a family ready for puppy adventures, playtime, learning, laughter, and the occasional game of "WHAT IS THAT IN YOUR MOUTH?!"

Meet Buddy: The "Just-Right" Sized Professional Goofball You've Been Waiting For! Hello, future best friend! Buddy here. I've been hanging out at the shelter for a month now, which means I've had plenty of time to perfect my comedy routine and my toy-retrieval skills just for you. At around 10–12 months old and a perfect 32 pounds, I am the ultimate "medium-sized" package. I'm big enough for real outdoor adventures, but compact enough to easily share the couch for movie nights. My Daily To-Do List Includes: • Toy Enthusiast: Playing with toys isn't just a hobby for me—it's my passion! I take my playtime responsibilities very seriously. • Playgroup Superstar: I absolutely love other dogs! I thrive in shelter playgroups and get along great with my canine friends, making me a fantastic choice if you already have a dog who needs a playmate. • Being a World-Class Sidekick: Whether I'm your one-and-only or part of a multi-dog crew, my main goal is to shower my humans with affection. The Best Part? I'm Ready to Roll! Thanks to a generous sponsor, my adoption fee is reduced to just $90! I’ve already done all the hard work and come completely vetted. Your adoption includes my neuter, distemper/parvo vaccine, rabies vaccine, vet exam, fecal test, basic deworming, AND my microchip. My bags are packed and my moving-out paperwork is ready to go! If you have a perfectly Buddy-shaped hole in your heart and a hand that's ready to toss a tennis ball, let's make it official. How to meet me: Call Talladega Animal Control at 256-362-5856 to schedule an appointment.  PLEASE SHARE MY STORY! Word of mouth is powerful, and my perfect family is out there somewhere. Let's help them find me! With love and tail wags, Buddy Current playgroup champ. Future family MVP.  November 10, 2026, 11:09 am

A WHOLE MONTH. ZERO MEET-AND-GREETS. WHAT ARE WE MISSING HERE, PEOPLE?! HELLO?! IS THIS THING ON?! It's me, FRITZ! And apparently, I've been living at Talladega Animal Control long enough to start wondering if I accidentally signed a lease instead of waiting for my forever family. I'm now 6 MONTHS OLD, 21. 2 POUNDS, ridiculously cute, and still waiting for ONE person to walk through that door and ask to meet me. Not one Single Person I mean, have you SEEN me?! I'm at that perfect age where I'm still a puppy, but I've upgraded from tiny potato to slightly larger potato with legs. I'm ready for adventures, toys, belly rubs, and a human who appreciates a little daily entertainment. I promise to bring laughter, love, and just enough puppy nonsense to keep life interesting. BUT SERIOUSLY, CAN SOMEBODY PLEASE COME MEET ME?! My adoption fee is SPONSORED and reduced to just $90! That includes: Distemper/parvo vaccines Rabies vaccine Veterinary exam Fecal test for parasites General dewormer Neuter Microchip Basically, all the important stuff is covered, and all you have to do is come meet your new best friend! I'm 6 months old. I'm 21.2 pounds. I'm adorable. I'm available. And I'm STILL WAITING. Please don't let another month go by without someone giving me a chance. Call Talladega Animal Control at 256-362-5856 to schedule an appointment to meet me! SHARE THIS POST! Seriously. Your share might be the reason my next update is announcing that I'M GOING HOME!

JIMI HERE! AND I'VE GOT ENERGY TO SPARE! Hey, hey, hey! I'm Jimi, and I'm currently accepting applications for my new adventure buddy, personal ball thrower, professional treat dispenser, and full-time best friend! I am 5 months old and weigh in at a handsome 35.4 lbs. I'm probably a Black Mouth Cur/Pit Bull mix (that's our best guess, anyway). What I can guarantee is that I'm 100% sweet, 100% friendly, and approximately 200% PUPPY ENERGY! I love people, get along with other dogs, and think life is one big invitation to PLAY! I'm looking for an active family who enjoys adventures, walks, games, and all the fun stuff that comes with having a young, energetic pup. A big fenced yard where I can run and play would be AMAZING! If you're looking for a couch potato, I'm probably not your guy (although I won't rule out a good nap after I've burned off some zoomies). GOOD NEWS! MY ADOPTION FEE IS SPONSORED AND REDUCED TO JUST $90! My adoption fee covers my neuter, vaccines before I go home, and a microchip to help make sure I can always find my way back to my family if I ever get lost. So, who's ready for a little extra fun, a whole lot of love, and an entire Jimi-sized adventure? Ready to meet me? Call Talladega Animal Control at 256-362-5856 to schedule an appointment! Your new adventure buddy is waiting! November 11, 2026, 4:53 am
