Story
Edit: Application fee only to ensure good home🐾 Meet Roxie! ❤️Roxie has been with me since she was a puppy, and she is truly a special girl. I’ve put a lot of time, love, and training into her. She is potty trained, knows her name, comes to a specific whistle I use, and can walk off leash. She is incredibly smart, affectionate, and full of personality!Roxie can be shy with strangers and needs a little time and patience to feel comfortable. Once she trusts you, she becomes your best buddy and loves affection. She is definitely more of a “girls’ girl” and usually opens up to women quickly, while she may take longer to warm up to men.She has the cutest ways of communicating. She’ll give a little “whisper bark” at the door when she needs to go potty, and when she’s hungry, she’ll hold her paw out like she’s asking you to shake. 🥹Roxie deserves a loving forever home with someone who will be patient with her, appreciate her personality, and treat her like family. ❤️🐶

Story
Paige recently came to the library looking for help. She is a sweet-tempered and wiggly girl who wants to love and be loved. She is good with cats (for a puppy), and gets along with our dogs. She enjoys playing with the neighborhood kids. The vet estimates she is about 4 months old. She is not house-trained, but has made progress since we took her in.She has been to the vet for a checkup. She got her rabies shot and her first parvo/distemper shot, plus a dose of heartworm and flea/tick medication. She is underweight but otherwise healthy.

Story
Found on the side of the road over the summer. Took to the vert and got rid of all the parasites and up to date on shots. Had a horrible ear infection. Needed meds and time to heal. She is all healed up, but our other dog doesn't get along with her. She does well with our kids, but unknown with our cat. Very playful and good on a leash. Can escape from a fence if not locked. Very sweet, loves play time, etc. Does well with other dogs. It is our dog we already had that is grumpy around her. Vet did not know if she was spayed.

Good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained,
Story
Nova is a sweet young female dog who can be very shy and fearful, especially around unfamiliar people or busy environments. She enjoys being outside, especially when it is dark and quiet, and she loves playing with my other dog when she feels comfortable. When there are not many people around, she is much more relaxed, playful, and able to be herself. Nova can become scared when people walk by or approach her, and her first instinct is usually to run away. When she becomes extremely frightened and goes into fight-or-flight mode, she may run around and occasionally have an accident. I have tried calming medication prescribed by her veterinarian, but it did not seem to help her anxiety. I am looking for a patient, calm, and understanding home for Nova preferably with someone who has experience with fearful or anxious dogs and can give her the time she needs to build trust. A quieter home with a secure yard and possibly another friendly dog may help her feel more comfortable.

Bradley

Shar Pei Setter (Unknown Type)

Carrollton, GA
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
We rescued Bradley after he ran an entire half marathon, was rewarded a medal for completion, and then was announced he had no owner. He had shown signs of abuse across his whole body, was severely malnourished, and had worms. After taking him under our wing, we learned he had escaped his home the night before the race. We decided to foster him until we found a home suited for him… and that’s why we’re here. Bradley is a very sweet, cuddly Shar pei mix. He is good with other dogs and kids and has no destructive tendencies after observing for 6 months. He does occasionally have pee accidents within the home if not taken out frequently. He is getting better on leash, has come back to normal health, and is ready to be permanently fit with a good home! He loves head pets and hard bones. He gets the zoomies quite often and loves his people. My family is moving and we will not be able to take him with us. Please help us find him a new home! No adoption fee because of necessity to re-home!

Story
Caroline is a 5 month old Redtick Coonhound pointer mix. She is very very loving and wants to be the center of attention. She loves going on car rides and walks. She says hello to everyone she sees and does great with other dogs. If you need a professional stick finder she is your girl. While Caroline is very energetic she does know how to chill out and when she does she will curl up beside you or on your lap.
