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

Story

Sochi is a ten year , 68 pound lab mix that was returned to the shelter after his owner died two years ago, and the family member who took him in just lost her home. Sochi is a mature, affectionate boy that is super easy. Very food motivated and mostly a sedate old man, he’s up for a bit of play every once in a while. He’s not much of a ball chaser, but is learning from his younger foster sibling. He loves to sleep in his bed, chew on his bone, and is fine left alone in the house. He likes to keep an eye on the deer in the woods but doesn’t get overly excited about them. He’s very friendly with both dogs and people and seems like he’d fit in almost anywhere. If you would like to foster to adopt Sochi, please go to www.atlantalabrescue.com to fill out an application. ##2635335##

Story

Location: Knoxville, TN area LincolnMaltese6 years old (almost 7 years old)9 poundsNeutered, UTD on vaccines, HW-Housetrained: Does well on a schedule **We do believe Lincoln is Deaf** Lincoln is a classic Velcro dog—if you’re sitting, he’s touching you; if you’re standing, he’s watching you; if you’re leaving… well, he’d really prefer you didn’t. He’s the kind of companion made for a quieter home, ideally an older couple or someone who truly enjoys being home and having a little white shadow follow them room to room. Lincoln would do best with another calm dog who doesn’t mind being snuggled and having a little sidekick glued to them. He finds comfort in quiet canine companionship and thrives in peaceful environments. What Lincoln is not is a crate dog. He absolutely hates confinement and will act a full-blown fool if crated, so a home that understands this and can manage him without a crate is a must. Because of that, Lincoln needs someone who is home a lot—retired, work-from-home, or just living that low-key life. Due to his sensitivity and need for calm surroundings, apartments, condos, and townhomes are not a good fit for Lincoln. In return, Lincoln offers loyal companionship, steady affection, and the kind of presence that makes a house feel like home. He’s not looking for excitement or chaos—just his people, a comfy spot, and the reassurance that he’s right where he belongs. We do not allow electric fencing/halo collars, runners/tethers, doggy doors ##2630912##
