Zoe and Rusty were stray dogs running on a highway near Raymond, MS. After owners were unable to be located they were placed up for adoption. Zoe is a very gentle and smart dog. She is very good on a leash and knows the sit and heel commands. Zoe and Rusty seem to be heavily bonded. They are both super sweet dogs. Zoe is more laid back, and Rusty is a typical lab - very playful!! Zoe and Rusty are in Mississippi, and the adoption fee includes transportation to you. We use Rescue Riders, the most reliable transporters on the road. Please respond for an application!

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 Mr. Incredible, the chill, big-hearted American Bulldog mix who arrived at the shelter looking like he’d just saved the world and taken a few victory scrapes along the way. He came in as a stray with some minor wounds, but don’t worry—those haven’t slowed down this gentle giant one bit. Mr. Incredible is all about soaking up the sunshine, exploring the yard like he’s on a top-secret mission, and hanging out with his friends as if he’s leading his own superhero squad. He’s playful, goofy, and so incredibly sweet that even his lounging poses look heroic. His previous family never came for him, but he’s decided that’s fine—he’s ready for his next great adventure with someone who appreciates a laid-back hero with a soft heart. If you’re searching for a loyal sidekick who will make every day feel like a comic-book moment, Mr. Incredible is ready to fly into your life.Dogs: No thanks! I find them annoying.Cats: UnknownKids: Maybe! I can get nippy when they kids are excited. I would need some training to learn I should not play this way.

Bodie (also known as Brownie) is a 1-year-old Boxer/Pittie mix with a zest for life and a heart full of love! Weighing around 40 pounds, this energetic pup is always ready for action and still has plenty of playful puppy energy to burn. He absolutely loves running around in the yard, playing with his toys, and making new canine friends. Bodie thrives in the company of other dogs and has become quite the social butterfly at Hounds Town, never failing to get the whole room moving with his infectious enthusiasm. Because of his high-energy nature, Bodie would do best in a home with kids 10 and older who can keep up with his playful spirit. A home without cats is preferred. If you're looking for a fun-loving, active companion who will bring excitement and joy into your life, Bodie is the perfect pup for you!
