Rocko is a loyal black lab that loves to go on adventures. we have to rehome him because we have another lab and we can only handle one large dog since we now have a newborn baby in the house. rocko has no issues with kids or people but he needs supervision when being introduced to new dogs. he has lived with his littermate his entire life so he can do well with other dogs, he just needs a gradual introductory period.

Story
Tyler is a 10 year old, senior Wheaton Terrier/Poodle mix, around 28 lbs.  Tyler's a handsome boy who's one of the most affectionate dogs ever. He was previously abused and had a very hard time trusting new people but he's a different dog now and has learned most people are kind.   No first time dog owners please. Adopters must be in the metro Atlanta area.  He's most familiar with women and would do best with a female owner or a loving couple. No single male homes will work for him. Tyler loves women! Any men in the home need to be a loving, doggie dad. Tyler is smart, he will know if you‘re a “dog person” or not.   He does best in a calm, quiet home without a lot of noise or activity, including guests coming and going often. The ideal age range for Tyler is 50‘s to early 60’s, someone more settled with a calm lifestyle. He’s not used to children and is happiest as the only pet in the home. Tyler is still active and playful and loves leash walks.   Tyler is housebroken, neutered and current on shots. Adoption fee is $250.   November 3, 2025, 9:40 am

Story
URGENT - Charlie needs a foster home!!!!    Meet Charlie — 1 1/2 Year old Little Terrier With a Big, Brave Heart.  Charlie is young, but he has already endured more than any pup should. When he was found, our vet believes he had been neglected for six months to a year. His 12-pound body was hidden beneath painful mats that took hours to remove. But underneath it all… was the sweetest little soul just waiting to be seen.    Despite everything he’s been through, he is gentle, loving, and endlessly forgiving. He melts into your arms when you hold him and looks up at you with the softest eyes — the kind that say “thank you” without a single word. He’s wonderful with other dogs and even cats, and he just wants to be close to someone who cares.  Charlie checked out well at the vet (aside from a treatable eye infection he’s receiving medication for), and now he’s finally ready to start his new life… but he needs a safe place to land. We are desperately searching for a foster home for this precious little boy. After so much neglect, he deserves warmth, softness, and love — even if only until he finds his forever family.  Do you have room in your home… and in your heart… to help Charlie heal? He’s good with cats and other dogs. If you can open your door to him, even temporarily, you’ll be giving him the first real chance he’s ever had.  Please consider fostering. Charlie is ready to feel loved — truly loved — for the very first time.      December 6, 2025, 2:51 pm

BEGGING FOR HELP!!! Please, Please help our Beautiful Senior Bella Girl Have Her Fairy Tale Ending!  Forever Foster or Adoptive Home Needed Hi, I’m Bella —a sweet older girl, a 14 year-old lab mix with a heart full of love and the gentlest soul. She has been in rescue for 12 LONG years!!!! I’ve spent so many years in rescue  patiently waiting for my happily ever after.  Could it be with you? If not please tell your friends and family, pretty please!?  Why I am YOUR  Perfect Companion: I’m affectionate, calm, and absolutely adore my humans. I’m a pro at cuddles, love short walks, and enjoy relaxing in cozy spots. I’ve always been an only dog, and that’s where I shine—just me and my person, creating a bond like no other. I may be 14, but I’ve got so much love left to give and will be your most loyal companion. My Dream Home: I’d love a quiet, calm home where I can be the only furry queen of the castle. A family or individual who’s ready to spoil me with love and comfort is all I ask for. How You Can Help Bella: Adopt or Foster Me! Not ready to adopt? Be my forever foster ! My rescue will cover my care while you provide the love. Share My Story. Help me find my miracle by sharing my post. Maybe someone you know is looking for a sweet, loyal senior like me! Every dog deserves a home, and I’ve been waiting 12 years for mine. Please don’t let me wait any longer—DM my rescue today and let’s make my dream come true! Together, we can finally give Bella the life she’s been longing for.  Bella is our 14 year old Senior Chocolate Lab mix girl, and weighs around 65 lbs.  She was given up after her family had a baby.  Bella is a very sweet and happy girl and has been waiting many years for her new mom or dad.  She is housebroken, crate-trained and great in the house.  She is happiest as the only pet in the home and wants all the attention to herself.  She's never had to share her toys, food or attention with another dog and likes it that way! Bella will still play with her toys and is very loving, but not overly playful. Can you make this beautiful senior girl part of your heart and home?  Bella is also spayed, microchipped and vaccinated.November 18, 2025, 5:19 pm

Story
Cross is a handsome 9 year old male, Shepherd mix...a darling boy with a huge heart. He’s a big boy, around 70 lbs. Cross is a Shepherd mix, maybe part retriever because he loves to retrieve tennis balls so much. He was actually obtained on Craigslist then abandoned at a local boarding kennel. He lived at the kennel for several years until finally finding his foster home.  Cross is shy at first around new people, but is very affectionate after he gets to know you. Once he does, he is SUPER loving. His favorite best friend is Ginger, a mini lab mix also up for adoption. They were both abandoned around the same time and have been best buddies for years. If they got adopted together it would be AMAZING! But this is not required. Cross MUST have a medium size, playful female in the home. He cannot be the only dog as he would be lonely. He does best with female dogs. He can be very shy with men, as men didn't treat him the best early in life.  He really needs a female in his home, as well as a tall fenced yard. The ideal home for Cross is a woman in her 40’s-50’s who’s still active, can be married but any man will need to have a sweet, loving personality to win him over. Also a home with a tall fence and a playful female dog, or who can adopt Ginger too!November 18, 2025, 5:19 pm
