Meet Cubby a Lab/Beagle mix that lost the only home he ever knew when his owner passed away. Since then, the shelter has been his whole world for 1,364 days, but it’s never felt like home.He’s a gentle, laid-back couch potato who just wants a quiet place to rest his head and someone to love again. He would do best in an adult-only home where he can feel safe, and finally at peace.He’s not asking for much—just a soft couch, a kind heart, and a second chance.Please consider fostering or adopting him. He’s waited long enough.To adopt this pet, please go to hsnwga.org, 'Adoption' then 'Application for Adoption', to complete an online application to be preapproved.

Story
Hi, I'm Lucky, a 5 year old, 13 lb., very sweet and loving lobby dog at the shelter. A few of my favorite things are other dogs and even cats. I'm a fun, active, "up for anything" guy that can't wait to find my forever home. Lucky would do best in a home with another dog, having come from a home with several other dogs. He's housebroken, loves adventures and can't wait to meet you. A home with a high fenced yard is needed for this active, inquisitive pup.To adopt this pet, please go to hsnwga.org, 'Adoption' then 'Application for Adoption', to complete an online application to be preapproved. Due to the high volume of applications received, our Adoption Coordinator will only contact the applicant that best meets the needs of the pet.

Then, thankfully, I made my way here—and now I’m ready for the next chapter of my story! 🏡I’m the kind of girl who just goes with the flow. I’ve never met a stranger, and I’m always ready to make new friends! Whether it’s meeting people, playing with my favorite tennis balls 🎾, or hanging out with my dog friends, I’m happiest when I’m having fun.✨ Good with dogs✨ Good with kids✨ Loves tennis balls✨ Never met a stranger✨ Easygoing and full of personalityWe’re not sure how I feel about cats yet, but if you have a kitty in your home, we can always test it out! 🐱After spending two months waiting in a shelter, I’m hoping my forever family is finally out there looking for me.
