Story
Kuma is a 1 year old, in-tact Akita. I was told he had all his puppy vaccinations, but I was not given the paperwork. He wants to be around his people and is very playful. Unfortunately, he plays too roughly for our other dogs. He would be a great solitary dog or guard dog for an experienced family.

Story
Once upon a time, there was a little puppy named Zorro who didn't get the kind of beginning every puppy deserves.  Life started out a little hard for this sweet four month old lab mix, but somehow, through it all, Zorro never stopped believing that people were wonderful. In fact, if you ask Zorro, people are the very best thing in the world. Sure, he enjoys toys and can happily entertain himself with a squeaky friend  or a game of puppy make-believe.  He's clever, curious, and always ready for a little fun.  But if given a choice between a toy, a treat, or a meal and a warm lap?  Zorro will choose the lap every single time. This little boy has never met a stranger.  Every person he sees is simply a friend he hasn't had the chance to love yet.  Affection seems to ooze from every pore of his body.  He leans in for cuddles, melts into your arms, and looks at you with hopeful eyes that say, "Will you stay a little longer?" Zorro is discovering how beautiful life can be.  He has safety now.  He has toys.  He has full meals and soft places to sleep.  But there is still one piece missing from the fairy tale he dreams about. His person. The one who will be his family.  The one whose footsteps he'll follow from room to room.  The one whose lap will become his favorite place on earth.  The one who will love him with their whole heart -- and be loved right back with a devotion so pure and complete that only a dog like Zorro can give it. Zorro isn't looking for a perfect world.  He isn't asking for a castle or a grand adventure.  He's simply hoping for someone to choose him.  Someone to tell him that his hard days are behind him and that he finally, truly belongs. And if you are lucky enough to be that person, you'll discover what everyone who meets Zorro already knows:  this sweet boy has a heart big enough to fill an entire home with love! If you’d like to meet Zorro, please fill out an adoption application: https://luckydaypuppies.org/adopt/ ##2698540##

Story
Harley Quinn — One-of-a-Kind, Big-Hearted Puppy Meet Harley Quinn, one yearold sweetheart who’s part Great Pyrenees and part… unicorn? Whatever her mix is, she’s pure magic. Harley is a social butterfly who loves kids and people and truly never meets a stranger. She enjoys car rides, walks beautifully on a leash, and is crate trained. Harley has been raised around cats, kittens, and other dogs, and she’s been exposed to cows, pigs, and a large goat with no issues. She has not been around chickens, so she’ll need supervision in that area. She would thrive in an active home where she gets plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. Harley enjoys chewing and benefits from supervision and appropriate chew toys. She loves toys, bones, and has a naturally happy, gentle nature. Harley is fully vetted and ready to find her forever family. Dogs and puppies are spayed or neutered, Heartworm negative, microchipped, appropriately vaccinated and treated for parasites. Applications to adopt can be found at harthumane.org. If you cannot adopt a pet at this time but would like to support our rescue, donations can be mailed to Hart County Humane Society P.O. BOX 1062 Hartwell GA. 30643 or online at harthumane.org. The Hart County Humane Society is an all-volunteer rescue, we receive no government funding and rely on donations to fund our lifesaving programs ##2812731##
