Story
Bart is a reserved 12 year old Jack Russell/Cattle dog mix. In his 12 years, this wise man has seen a lot. He is his own judge of character. Prefers a quiet and calm life. He now shares our lobby with several other friendly, playful pups and he does well. He hangs around to meet new adopters and guests. Might say hello to some or might just walk away. We know he has a crush on our Executive Director. A home including a male would be good. He does well with others when he can approach on his terms. Another dog in the home would be great. He is also good with cats. Might take Bart a minute to settle in, however, we believe with patience, love, kindness, the trust will come. A home with a fenced yard would be ideal.To adopt this pet, please go to hsnwga.org, 'Adoption' then 'Application for Adoption', to complete an online application to be preapproved.

Story
I AM CURRENTLY IN A FOSTER HOME. PLEASE REACH OUT TO THE OFFICE TO SET UP A TIME TO MEET ME!Hi, I’m Gam Gam! I’m an 11-year-old Jack Russell Terrier with the sweetest little soul. I may be a senior girl, but I still have so much love to give. Because of my age, I’m looking for a special someone who can open their heart and home to me as a hospice foster or adopter.I’m going blind and possibly hard of hearing, so I would do best in a calm, quiet home—either with gentle, laid-back dogs or as the only pup. My favorite things in the world are snuggling close and napping the day away. If you’re looking for a loyal, loving companion to share your home and heart, I’d love nothing more than to spend my golden days by your side. Currently, I am available for adoption. If you are interested in meeting with me, please fill out an application or call the Humane Society of Forsyth County at 770-887-6480. Adoption hours are Tuesday through Thursday 11-5 and Friday and Saturday 1-5. All my love, Gam Gam /(^.^)\",AVAILABLE"
