Story
At 6 years old and 58 lbs&#44 this medium-energy sweetheart is the definition of an easy button dog.<br/><br/>Leeanne is polite on leash&#44 likely house trained&#44 and always ready to do her business outside before settling in for a walk. Shes curious and friendly with other dogs-happy to greet them politely&#44 then move along with her signature non stop tail wag.<br/><br/>What really makes Leeanne shine&#44 though&#44 is her heart. Shes a certified love bug who leans in for head scratches&#44 rubs against you like a cat&#44 and will happily melt into you if you sit down. She takes treats gently&#44 knows her basic commands&#44 and will sometimes toss in an adorable little paw raise for extra charm.<br/><br/>Volunteers call her sweet&#44 docile&#44 patient&#44 and cuddly-truly one of those dogs that makes everyone smile. Whether shes trotting calmly by your side or curling up for snuggles&#44 Leeanne just wants to be near her people.<br/><br/>If youre looking for a gentle&#44 affectionate companion whos equal parts easygoing and cuddly&#44 Leeanne is waiting to meet you.

Story
Taz would love to be the main man in your life! This 1 1/2 year old rat terrier/chihuahua mix is looking for his very own person! Taz is a total ladies’ man and loves all female dog friends and neutral/friendly males. He isn't fond of dominant dogs bossing him around since he is small, but he isn't reactive or mean. He would also be perfectly content being a one and only! He currently lives with cats in his foster home and doesn’t seem to mind them. We’re recommending homes with older children only at this time since he hasn’t been around many kids, and younger children may make him nervous given his backstory. Think he could be your main squeeze? Apply to meet him! ##2734672##

Story
Lucky is new to us! He was an owner surrender because his family could no longer care for him. Here is what his foster has to say:  "Lucky has been great!  He’s people friendly. Dog friendly. He hasn’t even noticed the cats. Seems to be crate & potty trained. He’s extremely loving & affectionate. Seriously one of the nicest, sweetest dogs I’ve met. The little nub tail does not stop wagging. It’s like a propeller for his body. I think he’s gonna take off."  Lucky seems like an all around perfect pup and he would love to meet you! ##2756508##

Story
Have you heard the news??? Zara is available to be adopted . . . with NO ADOPTION FEE!! A huge thanks goes to Animal Legal Defense Fund for this! Because of ALDF, actress Kate Mara is sponsoring the adoption fee for some of our amazing dogs! Wow - can you believe it?? You can adopt one of our great dogs, and spend the adoption fee on new toys, soft beds, and yummy treats instead! ara, named Blyss at the shelter, ended up there when someone called and said there was a dog on their front porch. We don't know if she was lost, or someone had dumped her, but no one came to get her, until we did. This girl, who we think is a mix of rat terrier, min pin and a little bit of pittie, is a petite girl. She weighed 29 pounds when we pulled her from the shelter, and was a bit underweight, with some filling out to do. She is about 2 years old now, and is at her perfect weight, weighing about 38 pounds. She has a slender little body with long legs, a beautiful red brindle coat, and ears for days! If you have wanted a dog to do dog sports with - like agility - this sweet athletic girl may be a great fit for you! Like all of our dogs, Zara is in Atlanta. She can be adopted at any time, and will be available to go to her new home when she graduates from the program in mid-December. March 10, 2026, 2:53 pm
