Story
This unbelievably loving, gorgeous, sweet miracle girl is Snow White! She came into the pound after she was found wandering through traffic outside of a plaza, almost getting hit by several cars. It seems she was severely neglected and used for breeding, and just profoundly sad and defeated. When she came into the pound everyone’s heart was absolutely broken for her. She was so gentle and sweet with everyone, but just so sad and longing for love that she’s clearly never had. We have selected her for our home for the holidays program! She was in a kill shelter where no one could bear to put her down. No dog should ever go through life never having known love. She’s gone into an urgent short term foster care situation so that we can hopefully make her dreams come true! Snow White is 4 years old and a bit over 60 lbs. She’s a beautiful bully girl who came in looking like an entirely different dog. She’s made a radically beautiful transformation! She’s so gorgeous now and had all of her medical work completed! She’s current on all vaccines, deworming, heartworm test, and preventative and she’s also microchipped and spayed! She is an absolutely beautiful big mush with a big heart who is ready to find love! Snow Whites true love is people. Her biggest dream is to find a home where she is an only pet and can be truly loved. She loves to take walks, will go for a hike, will love riding in the passenger seat on car rides anywhere you want to go! She greets everyone with a smile and a tail wag, and is a true lover of all people. She is loving to live a life now where she can snuggle up on the sofa and watch a movie, sleep next to people at night, and feel the magic of a warm, loving, peaceful home. She just wants to be someone’s best friend and devoted companion. She’s ready to be an easy going devoted best friend. She loves to receive love, she is easy going and doesn’t require a crate but if you want her to go in when you’re not home she will kindly accept that. She walks well on leash, loads into the car well, and just has such a good heart. She would love to relax by your side in the summer months while you do outdoor chores, she’s really ready to devote herself to the true love she’s always dreamt of. She will be your absolute best girl if you just give her a chance. If she’s stolen your heart and you’d love to be the angel who gives her a bright future, please visit www.greatdivideanimalrescue.org and submit an application for adoption today!

Story
Name: Kayko Nickname: Giggles Age: 2 years Weight: 40 lbs Breed: Bully mix Before OMD: Stray who spent a few weeks in the shelter before we scooped her up into rescue. Doppelgänger: A troll under the tiniest bridge you’ve ever seen with a snore that could rival a giants Energy Level: Moderate (but zoomies make her look turbo-charged!) Introvert or Extrovert: Extrovert: She thrives on attention and adores being with people. Best Physical Features: Her short little legs that fuel her zoomies, her happy grin, and her “cuddle pile” naps where she disappears into a mountain of blankets. What we love most: Her dedication to being cozy. Kayko's goal is to gather as many pillows and blankets as she can to build herself the best cuddle pile on earth (or in her house at least) so she can snore the day away. Favorite Personality Trait: Her goofy, happy-go-lucky personality that earns her the nickname Giggles. Dogs: She’s a pro at matching her energy to whatever dog she meets i.e. playful with high-energy pups, calm with mellow ones. She would be best in a home without another dominant dog as she likes to take on that role. She also needs to eat separately from other dogs. Cats: Dog-savvy cats, yes. She is pretty curious of the resident cat. Kiddos: Has been amazing with the kids she’s met. Loves being in the middle of the action. Her favorite game? Running full speed across the room into the kids’ arms for belly rubs and snuggles. Working on: learning not to steal “forbidden” toys (like toddlers’ stuffed animals). Ideal Family: A family who loves to laugh and doesn’t mind some silly antics (or snoring), someone who will enjoy her zoomies, tolerate her obsession with cardboard destruction, and treasure her cuddle-and-snore routine. Housebroken: Still working on it, but getting very close. Crate Trained: A+ student. She’s “best dog ever in a crate” status. Zero accidents, loves her downtime there. Kayko is spayed, vaccinated and heartworm negative. she is available for adoption to residents of CT and surrounding states. If you are interested in adopting, please complete an application from our website.

Story
Brie and Eclair are to absolutely adorable, mushy, tender sweet girls who have most definitely been longing for love their entire lives. They came into rescue after being abandoned on the side of the road when Brie was full term pregnant. People had left food out for them but they were otherwise left to fend for themselves and Brie gave birth in brush in a field. She and Eclair, whom we assume is her daughter, raised the cutest mushy roly poly little babies until our volunteers discovered them. They couldn’t believe what was going on and went out, fed them, loved on them, and packed the whole family up in the truck, when the babies were about 2 weeks old, and headed off. When they realized they were finally safe, these girls gave kisses and couldn’t stop wagging their tails. They were so so grateful to finally be in a safe place where they had food and water in their bowls, cozy blankets to snuggle up on, and loving humans! Weeks went on and the babies grew beautifully and strong. They then had their medical work done and found their forever homes! Since then, both Brie and Eclair have also had their medical work completed! Brie is the white girl, and Eclair is a brindle girl and they’re both so wonderfully mushy and loving. They are now current on vaccines, dewormed, heartworm tested, microchipped, they are current on preventative, and they’re both now spayed! They are healthy, happy, and ready to begin the next chapter of their lives together! Due to the obviously strong bond these girls have, we do not want to separate them. Brie is the more outgoing of the two, her tail always wagging and she’s always ready for a snuggle and some kisses! Eclair is the less confident of the two, but she still soaks up all the love she can get. Brie gives her wonderful assurance that the truly difficult part of life is in their past. We don’t know their history, but we can only assume being abandoned pregnant on the side of the road can only indicate that whomever had them in the past, was not a loving, nurturing person. They likely didn’t get the love and focused attention they craved in their old life, and are surely dreaming of parents who have tender, loving hearts and would love to have pups to cuddle with and who would love to show these beautiful girls how wonderful people can be and how beautiful the world truly is. They are doing great in their foster home! They are reliably going potty outside and loving to have a fenced yard to play in as well as relax out in the sun and soak up the warmth. They are country girls and are loving their time spent enjoying fresh air and summer weather. They love to snuggle up together on the sofa, and love it extra when one of their favorite humans is by their side! These girls truly do want parents who will give them lots of love and treat them as the babies they truly are in their hearts. They have such tender, soulful eyes and you can tell they just want a future that is warm, loving, safe and nurturing. Brie and Eclair are so beautiful, and have an endless amount of love to give. They are a wonderful bonded pair and can’t wait for amazing parents to pick them! If you’d love to make their dreams come true of a beautiful future together, full of love, please visit www.greatdivideanimalrescue.org and submit an application for adoption today!!

Meet Bojangles! This loving bully mix is just five months old and already the happy go lucky kind of dog that people dream of having. While adventuring and floating on the river are his favorite activities so far, this fella is also down for playing with other dogs. Despite his adventurous nature, Bojangles will also settle well in a crate and is totally up for snuggling with his person. If this sounds like the pup for you, please complete an application at https://www.saveastray.org/forms/form?formid=3635 Once the application is approved, a FaceTime will be set up for a virtual meet and greet. Since we are located in Mobile, AL, this will give you the opportunity to see the pet interact with other dogs, people, and see a bit of their personality. Transports leave every week alternating between the NE and the Great Lakes. We use the most animal-friendly transport on the road. Rescue Riders Pet Transport.

Story
💙 Meet Alfred – King of the Sploots, Master of the Snuggles, and Certified Big Baby 💙 If you’re ready for a dog who is basically a big, lovable couch potato with legs, say hello to Alfred — the snuggliest, splootiest, smooshiest boy to ever exist. With his big ol’ bulldog head, adorable brindle spots, and one blue eye and one brown eye, Alfred looks like someone sprinkled magic on a teddy bear and brought it to life. See for yourself in his video! https://youtu.be/WE0VFBzlGLA?feature=shared Alfred is around 6 years old and built like a loaf of love — thick, soft, and made for cuddles. We think he’s an English bulldog, Pittie mix but, we can’t be sure since he’s a rescue! His signature move is the sploot (legs stretched all the way out behind him like a frog), and he’ll plop down wherever he feels comfy, often with a dramatic sigh like he just ran a marathon (he did not). He’s a big fan of AC, squishy beds, and slow strolls that end in snacks and praise. He’s an absolute dream with kids — gentle, calm, and super affectionate. Alfred sits sweetly for treats, gives the softest little kisses, and happily soaks up attention like a big squishy sponge. He loves being part of the family, especially if that includes belly rubs, baby talk, and lounging indoors with his favorite humans. Cats? No problem! Alfred did wonderfully with feline friends — polite, calm, and respectful. He’s got that “you do your thing, I’ll do mine” energy when it comes to kitties, which makes him a great match for homes with chill, confident cats. With other dogs, Alfred prefers to keep things low-key. He’s not really into playing or roughhousing — he’s more of a vibe guy. He does well with calm dogs and can share space without issue, but he’s also totally content being your one-and-only cuddle companion. He’s not here for the drama — just the snacks, snuggles, and soft places to nap. Alfred walks on leash with enthusiasm (he’s a big boy, after all!), but he responds well to gentle guidance and positive encouragement. He’s already shown improvement with some simple leash training, and with a little patience, he’ll happily strut by your side like the handsome prince he is. He’s crate trained and loves being inside — especially when there’s air conditioning and a cozy spot to sprawl out in. Alfred isn’t the type of pup who wants to go on grand adventures or spend hours outdoors. He’s more of a “let’s chill at home and binge-watch cartoons” kind of guy — which makes him perfect for a family that loves lazy Sundays and cuddle time. Alfred would thrive in a calm home where he can decompress, get lots of love, and enjoy a routine. He might be a little unsure in new places at first, but once he settles in, his affectionate, goofy, lovable personality really shines through. He’s got so much love to give — all he needs is someone to give it to. If you’re dreaming of a gentle, sweet, squishy-faced best friend who will happily nap next to your kids, give the softest kisses, respect your cat’s boundaries, and make you laugh every single day with his ridiculous sploots — Alfred is your boy. One blue eye. One brown eye. One giant heart. Come meet Alfred and let this sweet snuggle king wiggle his way into your home — and your heart. Ready to welcome a new furry friend into your life?
