Story
    Hi, I'm Jeffie Bunny and I'm looking for a very special family because I'm a very special dog. I'm a 3 year old, male Shih Tzu, weighing in at just 16 pounds. I'm partially blind, but I'm really smart, so I've figured out how to get down the steps to the backyard to go potty at my foster's house. I would love a home with another dog who can be my seeing eye dog, but I'm not as fond of cats. I'm looking for a home with a fenced in yard, someone home most of the day and only adults and older children. Because I can't see well, I can be startled when out on walks or by little kids.   I enjoy exercising, but I also know how to relax. I'm a very sweet and outgoing dog and would love to meet you if your home sounds like a fit for me.   An Adoption Application for this dog can be found and submitted online. http://www.angelsrescue.org/adopt/adoption-forms    Please be sure to like our Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/angelsrescue.  Email inquiry@angelsrescue.org    Note:   Some apartments and neighborhoods  have breed restrictions. We verify rental policies and adhere to any regulations. Please ensure you understand those restrictions before choosing a dog.           June 10, 2023, 6:58 pm

Story
    Benji Bunny is an adorable,15 pound, Shih Tzu mix. He's a little shy when meeting new people, but once he gets to know you, he's a goofy and cuddly guy.  He is looking for a home where his family is home most of the day due to some separation anxiety.  In addition, a home with a fenced in yard and another small dog to play with would be ideal.    He loves to play with doggy friends and with toys, but he also wants to be close to his person whenever he can be. He'd be a great companion for someone and also does well with older children.   If Benji Bunny sounds like your kind of dog, send in an application!   An Adoption Application for this dog can be found and submitted online. http://www.angelsrescue.org/adopt/adoption-forms    Please be sure to like our Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/angelsrescue.  Email inquiry@angelsrescue.org    Note:   Some apartments and neighborhoods  have breed restrictions.

Story
    My name is Ruckus Bunny and I am a 7 year old, 14 pound, male, Shih Tzu/Jack Russell mix. I love being with my people, so I need someone home most of the time. I prefer a quiet, low key life, so no busy households please. I would really like someone who wants to be a couch potato with me, so I can just lay in your lap or snuggle next to you. Retirees are my favorite people! My foster parents even let me sleep in their bed where I can get good night snuggles and have my sweetest dreams.   I was rescued with four family members, so I would really like to have some doggie siblings about my size to keep me company and play with me when you have to go out. To be honest, I “speak up” when left alone, so I’m not suited for apartments. I am working on potty training and I am doing pretty good when I stay on schedule. I like to climb fences and I can slip through between fence rails. So, if you have a fenced yard, it needs to be a secure one that I cannot slip through. I am also doing very well on my walks, but I act shy when first meeting new people.   An Adoption Application for this dog can be found and submitted online. http://www.angelsrescue.org/adopt/adoption-forms    Please be sure to like our Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/angelsrescue.  Email inquiry@angelsrescue.org    Note:   Some apartments and neighborhoods have breed restrictions.

Story
Meet Wigwam! This 1 year old boy is sweet as can be despite being removed from a less than loving situation. When he came to Hero, he was in desperate need of a shave and there was quite a handsome dog under all that matting! He can be a little nervous at times but his foster family thinks he will warm up quickly with love, patience, and training. He does not like being confined when his foster family goes out due to his past, but does well in the home when there is nothing left out that could get him in trouble. He bonds deeply with people- especially kids! He would be better suited towards older children, as they make him so excited that he can’t help but give them hugs and kisses. He is still a little unsure of male dogs but does not display any aggression to the 2 other dogs in his foster family. Don’t let his small size fool you, he can move! He loves playing fetch and running through the yard. He would love a fenced in yard in his forever home but would do well with any family willing to give him lots of play time. Thank you for your interest in one of our Hero Babies! Before inquiring, we thought it was important to share a few of our policies. Your Current Pets - We do require that your current dogs and cats are current on vaccines and spayed/neutered. Adoptions - We do not have a shelter and are a foster-home based organization. We do require that you have an approved adoption application to schedule a meet and greet. You can fill out an adoption application on our website, www.herorescue.org/adopt. Once your application is approved it will be sent to the foster family that is currently caring for the dog. They will be able to provide information on likes, dislikes, personality, etc. They will also schedule a time for you to meet the dog. We do require a home visit prior to adoption. Inquiries - If you would like more information on any dogs in the rescue, please email us at info@herorescue.org.

Needs special attention, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Several years ago a good Samaritan in Nashville saved me, I was running down the road. She took me in for 3 years, but couldn't afford to take me to the vet. I developed skin and ear issues so she reached out for someone to take me, and here I am getting the health care I need and responding very well. Yes I'm mostly blind, but I'm a gentle fellow that enjoys being petted. I could spend the day sitting on a lap being company and enjoying a persons company. I'm quiet so I would be fine in a small home with a small fenced yard. I do love to sit in the sun and snooze.

Story
My Great grandma got boom boom from a friend that had to go to an assisted living, now she is needing to move to an assisted living facility and can not take boom boom with her. Boom boom is a good boy and has barely any teeth so he has to eat wet food. Age unknown but I believe he’s anywhere between 10-14 yrs old. He needs someone to love and care for him the remainder of his life. I can not take him because he is a small dog and my dog is not.

These pups are in Milton, Georgia too!

Story
    Hi, I'm Issie, and I'm looking for a patient adopter with another dog and a securely fenced-in yard. I am a 4.5-year-old, 13-pound, long-haired chihuahua/papillon mix who is already neutered. I have gorgeous, silky, black, and white fur and a cute ear that sticks up. Animal Control trapped me after being on the run for a while, so I am still getting used to people and living in the house like an average dog. That's why it is a requirement for me to live with another friendly dog (or two!) who can show me the ropes. I get along great with the dogs in my current foster home. I have decided to become the oldest dog's shadow, and I follow her around, sleep next to her, and look at her during scary situations to see what I should do. I am not aggressive at all and have a very submissive temperament.  I am fine with cats too! They were in my last foster home, and I was uninterested in them. Young kids would probably be too much for me right now. I take Prozac for my anxiety, and it is helping me come out of my shell a lot. Because I am a scaredy-cat, I am a flight risk, and I must always have a leash attached to me. This leash helps you catch me to take me outside--if I weren't wearing it, you would be running circles around your house trying to get me, which wouldn't be fun for either of us! Once you have the leash, I walk pretty well alongside another dog. It is a requirement for me to have a fenced-in yard because I love to be outside. The fence must be very secure and not something I can dig or slip out of. It would actually be better for me if your yard were smaller with fewer things to hide behind or under. I am potty trained and can hold it until we go outside, but sometimes I might have an accident if I get scared by a loud noise.  I have made huge strides in my foster home, and I really want to find that forever home to continue making progress. Even though I am afraid, I am trying. You can tell that I want to be loved on, I am still just unsure. It helps that I LOVE cheese, turkey, peanut butter, and pretty much all foods. I've actually started to learn the spots where my foster parents eat, and I will sit there and wait for them to give me something! I am looking for someone to love me the way that I am right now, but who knows that I am getting better every week, and with time and patience, I can be a mostly normal dog. Whoever adopts Issie is going to be part of something very rewarding. It is the most beautiful thing to see an animal learn to trust, and helping Issie blossom will most likely be one of your proudest accomplishments in life. If that sounds like a journey you are interested in, please apply for Issie today! You can check out more photos and videos of him here: https://photos.app.goo.gl/bvsUxBZtoy5SyJmDA. An Adoption Application for this dog can be found and submitted online. http://www.angelsrescue.org/adopt/adoption-forms Please be sure to like our Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/angelsrescue. Email inquiry@angelsrescue.org Note: Some apartments and neighborhoods have breed restrictions. We verify rental policies and adhere to any regulations. Please ensure you understand those restrictions before choosing a dog.           June 10, 2023, 6:58 pm
