Good with kids, Good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Sully is 75lbs of pure adorable, goofy Husky personality with almost none of the exercise needs. He loves kids even more than he loves adults and gets along fantastically with any dog he meets, but he believes cats are toys that he can play with despite my attempts to train him otherwise so a home with no cats is best. He is housetrained, knows commands, and is very smart but being a puppy he still needs further training with manners and occasional chewing things hes not supposed to.

Story
Kelce is a good boy. He is house trained, however, there is a story with this. We have chickens and he likes to get in their pen and play. We bought a new pen and he was pushing in so we bought an electric fence. He then became terrified of going outside and will now rather potty inside than outside. The fence has been shut down and he potties outside again but I can't afford to replace the chicken pen and he's not figuring out how to stay out. He doesn't hurt the chickens, in any way. He is also not as socialized as he should be. He is protective of my house and will bark when anyone comes close but he is a sweet, loving, and generally well behaved. We have another small and large dog as well as a cat. He is social with the different animals but still may need to meet new animals before becoming friendly. My children do not spend as much time with him as he would like. He is an active dog needing an active life. Please let me know if you'd like to meet him!

Story
Daisy mama is a sweet, energetic and gentle girl. Her bark can be a bit intimidating but she truly is a sweetheart girl. She’s almost 3 years old, her birthday is in June. She had one litter of 12 puppies last December and she was the best mommy! I always planned to get her spayed but a lot has happened and I just haven’t had the time to carve out to take her. I’m more than willing to cover the cost and even take her to get spayed at the vet we use! I’m going through a divorce and I had to move back home with my grandparents and they won’t allow me to have her there unfortunately. My dad has been taking care of her since September and he can’t anymore which is why I’m hoping and praying she can find a home here. She loves my 3yr old son and she’s very good with him! I’ve been trying for months to find her a new forever home where I can still hopefully be part of her life.

Story
Looking to rehome our sweet girl, Waffles. Unfortunately, two members of our family have developed intense allergies due to pet dander and can no longer have short haired pets. Our vet believes she is at least 24 months old, she is up to date on shots, spayed, and is super snuggly, and athletic. She is a great companion for walks, runs, or fetch (would highly recommend a chuck it!). We know for a fact that she is great with toddlers and babies. Our 8 month old absolutely adores her and Waffles loves to hang out with her as well. We are incredibly sad to have to rehome Waffles but if you are looking for a sweet, athletic, smart, snuggle bug...consider adopting Waffles! If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask. Meet up in the Woodstock, Holly Springs, Canton area. She was originally found wandering around an apartment complex. She know a couple of commands and is receptive. Not a fan of other dogs on leashes, but does well with other dogs in the home.

Story
My brother had purchased her from a family who had babies of her breed back in 2015 or 2016 I believe. We were told shes German Shepherd mixed with Labrador. She is about 9 yrs old, she's really energetic, loves to play and be outside! And she loves company from people. Unfortunately, we all have busy schedules and can't play as much with her anymore and we also recently moved with family and apparently my aunt is allergic so we can not keep her. Also we dont want her to go to an animal shelter because we believe she will be good with another family that will give her the time and love that she needs. Thanks for reading.
