Story
Marge loves to play fetch and cuddle. I thought I would be able to take my dog Margaery on the road with me, but she is incredibly nervous riding in the truck all the time. I have had Margaery for years and ideally I’m looking for someone who I can pay to watch her for extended periods I’m gone and am willing to pay. While there are plenty of dogs that Marge gets along well with, she does have a low tolerance for dogs that won’t leave her alone. I would be gone 3-4 weeks at a time and then take her for 3-4 days and bring her back.

Story
This is Skidmark I found him running down the middle of the highway so I turned back and found him. He was so friendly and hopped right in my car. I wasn’t able to find his previous owners so I took him to the vet where I found out he had heart worms. He had to go through three horrific months of heart worm treatment and now is healthier than ever and fully vaccinated while getting regular flea, tick, and heart worm prevention. Thanks to Spay Georgia I was able to get him neutered. Skid has come such a long way and his last step is to find his FURever home he’s such a loving, playful dog I wish I could keep him but unfortunately he doesn’t do well with my cats. His rehoming fee will be donated to Spay Georgia the organization that helped neuter him.

Story
This is our Bailey girl. She is four years old, born on 12/27/19. Her mother is a Husky and we are pretty sure the father was a Pitt mix that jumped our fence. She is very sweet and is house trained. She sleeps in a crate at night time. She weighs about 62 pounds. She is smart and has been easy to teach how to do things like sit, shake, and wait. We are having to find a new home for her because we have been unable to keep her from getting out of our backyard. We feel that she needs a bigger area to be able to move around and run, and we just can’t provide that for her right now. She has been raised with a couple of other dogs, and there have been cats around her. But, she may not do well with new cats. She has gotten into trouble for going after a stray neighborhood cat. She has two fang mark scars on one cheek from where she was protecting us from a snake in the back yard when she was about a year old. She loving and loyal and we really want to find a good home for her 🩷

Story
Zela is a sweet girl who is 4 months old and needs someone who understands that she is a puppy who needs training. We have begun the following training, potty training, basic commands, crate training. This doesn't mean she is trained, it does mean we are working on it and you will have to continue her training. Zela is very smart and energetic. She is current on her vaccination but will need more as she grows. She will come with paperwork for what she has had and our vets recommendation for continued care.
