Story
Hi&#44 Im Cali! Im a sweet&#44 loving pup with the perfect mix of playfulness and snuggly charm. I enjoy exploring the world on walks&#44 romping around with a dog friend&#44 and curling up next to you for a cozy cuddle. I have a wonderful balance of energy - sometimes ready for fun and adventure&#44 other times perfectly content to relax by your side.<br/><br/>Ive learned a lot about feeling safe and confident thanks to my dog buddy. Im shy around new people and can be a little leery of new men at first&#44 but with a friendly dog companion by my side&#44 I really shine. Having another pup helps bring out my happy&#44 curious side and makes me feel safe enough to show my true personality.<br/><br/>I adore toys - especially plush ones I can de-stuff (its just too fun!). Most of all&#44 I love affection. If you sit on the floor or relax on the couch&#44 Ill be right there next to you.<br/><br/>Id thrive with a family who has another dog to help me feel secure&#44 along with some space to play or opportunities for regular walks. Does that sound like you? Id love to meet you!<br/><br/>P.S. I also qualify for Welcome Trial&#44 which means you can take me home for up to 14 days to make sure Im the perfect fit before making things official.<br/><br/>Test

Hey there&#44 Im Cameroon&#44 your future best buddy!<br/><br/>Im that rare combo of chill couch potato and ready-for-action adventurer. One minute Im snoozing on my soft dog bed surrounded by my cozy blankets&#44 the next Im zooming to the door the second I see my leash. Walks are my absolute favorite&#44 especially when my dog friends tag along. Ive hung out with lots of pups&#44 and Im the kind of guy who just follows the good vibes.<br/><br/>Im totally house trained&#44 sleep like a dream&#44 and dont bark just for fun. I greet every morning like its the best day ever because&#44 honestly&#44 it usually is. I love car rides&#44 soft toys&#44 and being loved on by my humans.<br/><br/>I do have a fancy side: I eat Purina Pro Plan Sensitive Skin and Stomach Lamb formula because chicken isnt my thing. I also have sensitive skin&#44 so I take regular medicated baths. The cool part? When my foster says&#44 Lets take a shower&#44 I stroll right in like a pro model heading down the runway.<br/><br/>Id fit right in with just about any family who enjoys a good walk and doesnt mind sharing the couch. Got another dog? Even better. A fenced yard? Bonus!<br/><br/>So what do you say? Lets make this official.<br/><br/>Love&#44<br/>Cameroon<br/><br/>P.S. I qualify for Welcome Trial so you can take me home for 14 days and make sure Im a good fit. But dont worry&#44 I will be!

Hello, my name is Calisha and I am here to surrender my pet, Jace who is a pit and lab mix and is about a year old. I rescued him from the Fulton County Lifeline Animal shelter in December of 2022 and unfortunately I have started a new job and will not have enough time to show him the love and attention he needs which is why I am here. Hopefully he can find a new loving and caring forever home. He is a house dog who loves to play, cuddle, and keep warm. He loves to chew on bones and is active but he loves naps :)

Kiwi is a 7 year old, a petite boxer mix who weighs just 38 pounds — and truly, she’s as close to perfect as a dog can get. She’s incredibly smart, affectionate, and loves everyone she meets. She does the cutest zoomies in the yard, romps around with her toys, and then curls up for a cozy nap. Seriously, this girl is absolute perfection — and those ears deserve their own spotlight!  October 26, 2025, 2:17 pm

Story
Hi there, I’m Ralo! I am an easygoing, well-mannered, somewhat active dog who loves being part of a home. I have the perfect mix of playful energy and calm relaxation. I enjoy fetching the ball and proudly dropping it at your feet, helping with yard work, and greeting new people with excitement and interest. I also live with a cat in my foster home and we get along great, even sharing nose boops. I love playing with other dogs too, though because I play enthusiastically I would be a better fit for a home with larger dogs rather than smaller ones.I’m a perfect gentleman in every way. I do my business outside the moment the door opens and come right back in without needing to sniff every corner. I’m very respectful of the house, never get on the furniture, sleep on my bed at night, and don’t need to be crated. My foster has left me alone for extended periods and I’ve been completely nondestructive. I even napped in the car on the way to my Good Day Atlanta appearance like a total pro. I seek out affection, love being pet, and I have one funny quirk: I refuse to go in the kitchen and will stand outside crying politely while my meals are prepared.I cannot wait to find my forever family and bring my calm, loyal, and gentlemanly charm to my new home.I also qualify for Welcome Trial, which means you can take me home for up to 14 days to make sure I’m the perfect fit before making things official.Love,Ralo
