Story
Cash lives for the short, sweet breaks from shelter life - riding in the backseat of the car, going through the DQ drive-thru for a cup of whipped cream, sitting on a bench in a park together, feeling the sun and the breeze on your faces. Those trips, and the one-on-one time he gets with his favorite humans on our team, are the thread of happiness in Cash's life that keep him going. But, we know it's hard for him to see us say good night and head home at the end of the day, while his "home is the shelter. At 6, Cash Money has been at PAWS for most of his life, FIVE YEARS, except for a brief one-month break in an adoptive home. Cash is one of our longtime front office dogs, and he's also a bit of a self-appointment supervisor, giving us feedback on when we're talking too loudly or coming up short on our treat-feeding duties. He is a little man with a brash, sometimes rough exterior. But, inside, Cash is just a little boy dying to be loved. He has friends, but he wants his own people, his own home. The real deal. The kind of love and acceptance we all crave. Laura, our shelter manager, is Cash's buddy. She writes, "Cash is smart and treat motivated. He's my guardian and he takes his job too seriously, but he will let me do most anything with him because we've established a lot of mutual trust, respect and love. He is such a cuddle bug and is actually so very affectionate. He loves plush toys and is a master of interactive toys and doggie IQ tests. If he is not getting enough attention, he will let you know, trust us. Cash needs an adult home because little ones give him the heebie-jeebies, and he's a bit of a resource guarder, mostly with food. We're working on that. He has some dog friends but can be selective and prefers a low key, quieter canine friend who allows him to do the talking.

He is Blue, he will be 2 years old in February, he is a good boy and is very good with well-behaved children. He was bought when he was just 3 weeks old. Unfortunately I can't continue having him at home because I have a 1-month-old baby and I don't have the time he deserves.

Hi, I'm Hermes. I am very excited to meet you, and I just know we are going to be best friends. My hobbies include sleeping (a lot!), exploring the world (there's so much to see!), and getting into a little trouble (I'm a puppy after all!). I don't have much life experience yet, but I'm willing to learn if you have the time to teach me. If you have other pets in your home already, I would love to meet them! Do you think I might be the perfect match for you? I sure hope so. Love, Hermes!

Not good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Just look at this Coffee County cutie! April was found as a stray in south Georgia. She was in very early pregnancy so they were able to spay her before she had to try to carry eleven puppies to term. She is barely past being a puppy herself at 1.5 years old. She is a beautiful girl weighing about 16 pounds. April is UTD on her vaccinations, microchipped, and ready to find a home which will keep her safe and happy. Right now she is not a fan of other dogs (no surprise after what may have happened running free.) We will get her on the website as soon as we can but applications are being taken! https://www.jackrusselladoptions.org/adopt-a-dog/

Story
Hello, big world! Molly and Samantha here. We are a bonded pair who were left outdoors and ignored for a couple of years except for being fed. We came to the rescue in 2022 with cherry eyes and heartworms. The humans here helped us get rid of those nasty worms first, and we did wonderfully well. Next came fixing the cherry eyes, being spayed, getting our teeths cleaned, and having this little tracking chip thingie put into us. Whew! That was a lot — but all good stuff that made us feel a whole lot better than ever before. We still look to each other for companionship and support, so we need to be adopted together. That said, we are now much more outgoing and willing to engage with people than we used to be. It just takes time and patience and we will entertain you as we entertain each other. Molly is around 7 years old and Samantha is about 5. We tip the scales at a whole 13 pounds each.
