Story
Bleu is will be 5 years old in July 2026. She is a lovable dog that loves to sleep and cuddle. She loves outdoors. She is great with people, but may be aggressive with other dogs. Our life has become so busy that we can't give her the time she needs. She would fit perfect with a family that does not have small kids and no other pets.

Story
We adopted Odin from the Atlanta Humane Society when he was a puppy. He is beyond a good dog. He is now seven, and we are unable to give him the exercise he requires. Our schedule doesn't allow us to be as active as it used to be for him. This has caused him to act out by eating off the counters, growling if our baby gets near him, and occasionally showing obedience. This is all on us since we can't get him stimulated as he needs, and that hurts me. I want him to go somewhere that he will get all the attention and exercise that his breed desires. He is a good boy and an awesome companion when he gets to work. He is a bit wild around other dogs, so some may want to fight, but he is friendly if they are equally wild. The fee is to ensure he goes to someone who really wants him and can afford to provide for him.

Story
Peanut is a fun loving dog who loves people and becomes a character when he wants to get his point across with his ‘dog talk’. He loves to run, jump, and play all the time. If he is left alone for too long he will be waiting for you and ready to fuss. He is mostly mild mannered, but can throw a teenage tantrum sometimes when he doesn’t get his way. He absolutely LOVES snacks and will eat them all day everyday if you let him. He is a big dog and looks intimidating, but he is just a big baby who wants to play. We want someone who will treat him like a member of the family and love him as much as we do.

Story
Kaizen is a 4yr old sweet, loving and gentle dog. He’s a little talkative when he’s in the mood, loves to play especially hide and seek, he rarely barks unless he feels threatened, he’s home and crate trained, he loves watching dog movies and relaxing, even though he’s a Siberian husky he likes to sun bathe, he’s enjoys dried foods and cooked foods. My husband has been having sinus issues and after seeing an allergist found out he’s allergic to pet dander so unfortunately we have to rehome our sweet boy. He’s been in daycare and the parks lot so he’s used to playing with other dogs his size, he’s never been aggressive nor has ever bitten anyone. He’ll come with an extra large crate, bed, , grooming kit, toys, leash, collar, harness, heart worm, flea medicine and what’s left of his dried food.
