Story
Gunner is a four month old, 24 pound shepherd mix puppy who was picked up as a stray.  Gunner (the fosters call him Alf) is shy at first, and needs a slow introduction, but once he knows you, he is a goofy, playful, and cuddly puppy. He loves toys and playing with the other dogs in his foster home. He is doing great on potty training and sleeps through the night. Gunner is incredibly smart and will do best in a home where someone will continue his training. If you are interested in Gunner to foster or adopt, please go to www.atlantalabrescue.com to fill out an application. FROM THE FOSTER:  Gunner just spent a few days at a “board and train” while his foster was out of town. While he was there he worked on some great basics like leave it/drop it, recall, confidence building, and general socialization. To see more about Gunners progress, follow this link. Gunner would do great in a house with another playful dog or as an only dog. He is potty trained, crate trained, loves to learn.  ##2593162##

Story
Rocky is a young German Shepherd - abouty 18 months old - who brings curiosity, drive, and heart to everything he does. We knew he was younger than his stated age when we put our hands on him at the shelter, but when he came to us, and his ears started to stand up, we realized that this boy is really just a baby! He’s eager to connect, loves to work, and is already showing us just how much potential he has. Rocky has graduated from our program, and is one smart boy! He needs someone who is dog savvy, and knows how to keep a smart young dog engaged, so that he doesn't come up with a job all by himself. :) If you’re looking for a bright, loyal companion with a big future ahead of him—Rocky might be the one you’ve been waiting for.

Story
Hi, I’m Troy! I’m a beautiful dog with a heart full of love to share. I’m already housebroken and get along great with other dogs, which makes me an easy fit for many homes. I really enjoy running and playing in the fenced-in yards, it’s my happy place! I can be a little head shy at first, but once I get to know you, I warm up quickly and show you just how sweet and loyal I can be. I can’t wait to find a family to call my own!

Thanks to my foster family, I’ve gained weight, learned what it feels like to be safe, and discovered that life can be pretty wonderful.I’m a sweet, quiet, and calm girl who loves peaceful moments and gentle company. I live happily with other dogs and get along well with them, making me a great addition to a home with furry friends already in it. I had a short stay with a foster sitter where we found out that I not a great match with cats.I may not be the loudest or flashiest pup in the room, but I have a soft heart and a lot of love to give. I’m ready for a forever home where I can continue to grow, feel secure, and be loved for the good girl I am.If you’re looking for a gentle soul to share your life with, I just might be your Brooklyn!
