Story
Meet Oakleigh! Oakleigh is one of many dogs we have saved from rural Upson County lately. Being a very small, rural shelter the dogs are only held for a very short stray hold before they are at risk of euthanasia. Thankfully they have a very dedicated group of volunteers who work tirelessly to try to get the dogs to safety before their time runs out Oakleigh is about a year and a half old and 40 lbs - what a great age and size! She was very popular at the shelter and in social media postings trying find rescue placement for her because of her gorgeous coloring but alas that wasn't enough to save her, so RMG stepped in to make sure she would be safe.  Oakleigh is great with other dogs in her foster home and has learned that her crate full of soft blankets can be a great place for a comfy afternoon nap. She's very friendly and outgoing and will make one lucky family very happy! Could it be your family? Interested in adopting?

Meet Kelly! Kelly is a very sweet lovable girl who wants nothing more than a human best friend! Kelly gets along with most other dogs but she does like to be the boss so will need a friend who doesn't mind her bossy attitude sometimes. She would also do great as an only dog!

Story
Meet Mocha! Mocha was one of 4 dogs we saved from death's door one cold November day in 2024. Having been found wandering on her own in a rural South Georgia county with a very small animal shelter, her days were numbered from the day she was picked up. Thanks to some very dedicated shelter volunteers, RMG was able to get Mocha to safety before her time was up Mocha is a super sweet pittie girl who just wants a person to love! Not quite 3 yrs old and around 45 lbs, Mocha loves playing with her other dog friends in her foster home and then going in to settle in for a quiet night of family tv time! Mocha would love nothing more than to find her very own forever family in time to go on all of the fun summer adventures coming up! Interested in adopting?

Story
Meet Scout! Scout was found as a stray in a rural South Georgia county with an especially small shelter that tends to lead to a higher euthanasia rate. Volunteers fell in love with this boy and advocated so so hard for him to find safety with a rescue because of how amazingly special he is! Scout is about a year old and practically perfect in every way! He's great with other dogs of all sizes and truly has never met a stranger - two or four legged! Scout's one true love though? Children! This boy ADORES kids! His dream come true home would be a young active family who would make him a bonafide member of the pack - he's not interested in just being the family's dog, he wants to be a full fledged family member that gets to tag along on all of the dog friendly adventures! Now that fall sports are in full swing, he's ready and waiting to be your very best cheerleader on the sidelines! Interested in adopting?
