Story
Cranberry is a happy, friendly 2-year-old rat terrier mix with a huge zest for life. She eagerly greets each day ready for plenty of active play. She loves catching thrown balls (and bringing them back!), engaging in games of tug, zooming around the yard (particularly if another dog will play chase with her), and going for leashed walks. Since she is athletic, agile, coordinated, and fast, with excellent recall, we think she'd probably excel in canine sports. But her gusto is balanced with a gentle, mild-mannered nature and a love for snuggling with her person and calmly chewing her toys or napping on the sofa. She weighs a sturdy 29 lbs., so she could potentially be a bit overwhelming for smaller dogs willing to wrestle with her, but she is respectful and deferential to other dogs, letting them call the shots. She does very much enjoy the company of other canines (and cats) but it's people who really light up her eyes and warm her heart. She greets strangers like old friends and treats her trusted people like they're the greatest thing in the world.    Cranberry is reliably house-trained with nice house manners--although she is still working on not jumping up on people in excitement and kissing their faces without permission. She is seeking adoption by an active household with a fenced yard (required) and a routine that gives her plenty of opportunity for exercise, mental stimulation, and physical affection. If your lifestyle matches Berry's, please check out her photo album at  https://imageevent.com/beales/fosters/cranberry   to see lots more photos and some videos of this darling gal. If you are interested in adopting this dog, PLEASE READ THE DETAILED ADOPTION PROCESS information on our website at www. NewRattitude.org/adopt/  From there, you can access our adoption application or contact our Adoption Team for more info.July 9, 2026, 10:14 pm

Story
🚀Meet Rocket!🚀 Rocket is around 1-2 years old and ready to blast his way into someones heart! This sweet boy was sadly dumped in an area with no animal control, and one of our FURever FURkids adopters reached out asking if we could help, so of course we said yes. Rocket is neutered, updated on all vaccines, microchipped, heartworm tested negative, and started on prevention. We believe Rocket is a Rat Terrier mix, possibly with Chihuahua and Beagle. He weighs around 20 pounds, the perfect size! Rocket has been wonderful with everyone he has met: ❤️Dogs ❤️Cats ❤️People of all ages (as long as they are gentle) He does well in the house, though like any new dog, a few accidents while adjusting to a new routine are possible. Rocket would LOVE a home with another playful dog friend and a securely fenced yard where he can safely zoom around and explore. After playtime, hes also a professional couch snuggler. 🚀Adoption fee: $225 Apply to adopt at: www.fureverfurkids.com

Story
Hi, I'm Lucky, a 5 year old, 13 lb., very sweet and loving lobby dog at the shelter. A few of my favorite things are other dogs and even cats. I'm a fun, active, "up for anything" guy that can't wait to find my forever home. Lucky would do best in a home with another dog, having come from a home with several other dogs. He's housebroken, loves adventures and can't wait to meet you. A home with a high fenced yard is needed for this active, inquisitive pup.To adopt this pet, please go to hsnwga.org, 'Adoption' then 'Application for Adoption', to complete an online application to be preapproved. Due to the high volume of applications received, our Adoption Coordinator will only contact the applicant that best meets the needs of the pet.
