Story
Goldie is a one year old, 50 pound lab mix that was picked up by a shelter and they thought she was pregnant. All the rescues are full, with no fosters for litters, so she was at the shelter, with no rescue offers for a few weeks. As it turned out, they finally did x-rays and determined that she wasn’t pregnant, so we were able to take her. Poor Goldie had to be carried out of the shelter. She was so shut down that the techs at the vet sat on the floor and hand fed her. Exam and x-rays the next day revealed a bullet casing and shrapnel in her shoulder. That explained a lot for this girl who was so afraid she could barely move. Luckily, the bullet is not in a place where it is causing a problem, and they noticed that when another dog was around, she seemed to calm down. The next day they put her with  another friendly female in the yard together and it was like magic! They romped and played and we realized then that she will have to have a dog friend in her new home. She is cute and sweet, crate trained and seemingly housetrained, but a work in progress.   If you have the patience to work with her to gain her confidence, and would like to foster to adopt, or even just foster, please go to www.atlantalabrescue.com to fill out an application. ##2666291##

Story
Winston is a one year old, 60 pound lab mix that was found wandering and picked up by a shelter. He is so social he was happy to see animal control and jumped right in. He is in boarding now and has done very well with all of the dogs and loves the staff. He looks like he has been well-maintained with a beautiful coat and healthy weight. We think he’s lived in a home. If you would like to foster to adopt, or just foster Winston, please go to www.atlantalabrescue.com to fill out an application. ##2666028##
