Story
When Casper smiles at you, and he smiles at you a lot, it feels like everything is right with the world. He's got a huge grin, and his whole face radiates joy. We've got a big crush on him! This sweet, meaty boy loves feeling the sun on his face and carrying around a tennis ball in his mouth. Casper can chase balls for days. He loves our off-leash play area, where he can run laps and roll in the dirt and leaves (his favorite thing). Casper is playful but also enjoys chilling with you. He's attentive with his friends and will check in with you when you're out walking. He also knows his basic skills, like sit and stay and wait. He'll do pretty much anything for a treat. Casper is able to pass other dogs without any issues and we're evaluating him to get a feel for how he might be with another dog in the house. His best fit would be a home with grownups who will play with him and take him for walks. He'd love a yard, and exercising with you would be his favorite thing. Casper has been with us a while, so he needs a little spoiling and encouragement to help him thrive in a home.

Story
Caboose is as gentle as he is beautiful. His favorite things are plush toys and playtime, and treats are probably a close third on the leaderboard. At 2, Caboose is playful and athletic, but he also has a really laidback energy, meaning that he is up for anything but is never too much. He knows how to read the room and adjust his approach. We've had a lot of abandoned pets this year, closing in on 150, and Caboose is one of them. He came in so shy and frightened, but was nothing but friendly and polite with our team, as if he sensed he was in a safe place. Since his arrival, Caboose has grown more comfortable and confident. We'd love to see him end up with someone who is as devoted to him as he will be to them. We'd love to find him someone who can offer him nothing but love and stability and the life he deserves. We have not yet had a chance to test Caboose with our other dogs or cats. If you would like to meet this gorgeous, easygoing boy, please fill out and send in an adoption application. We'll get you scheduled to come out as soon as possible.

Story
Pinky Tuscadero wasn't sure what to make of her photoshoot; no one has ever asked to take her portrait before. But, she liked Fred, our volunteer photographer, so she decided to trust the process and looked the camera right in the eye. In return, Fred captured some of Pinky's spark, don't you think? Pinky is a cool cucumber, steady, not in a hurry, always willing to stop and say hello. She prefers the laidback life -- sunning herself, gentle walks, please let's not hurry or count steps on our Apple watches. She doesn't even have a watch. Pinky is a 50-pound thiccckkk lady who (we think) looks like a pittie-mix with a little glitter and cotton candy mixed in. Her eyes are so soulful, they stop us in our tracks. Seriously. Swipe through and look at those eyes. Some fool human cropped her ears. The same human, we surmise, left Pinky behind one night outside our gate. Pinky harbors no ill will. She's all love, that girl. The only shortcoming we have observed is a slight fixation with squirrels that this chunky lady has zero chance of actually catching. But, hope is very much alive in Pinky's heart. So, mind the leash if she sees one of them there critters . Come see about Pinky, if you like your friends to be calm, cool, and chill as they come.

We found Chocolate several months ago hurt in the rain and fostered him while we find a new home. He is great with my other dogs and very sweet. He listens and is very smart. He is very active and loves to exercise. My husband and I currently work over 12hr shifts and barley have time for him. He is currently in a crate for long hours and it breaks my heart which is why I have the urge to relocate him asap. He deserves a chance to be active and loved.

Story
Sheba, a four-year-old 70 pound American Pitbull Terrier with a UKC purple ribbon registration, is affectionate, well-behaved, and fully house-trained. She has been spayed and has never had a litter. She enjoys the outdoors, particularly playing fetch. I am seeking someone who can dedicate time, love, and provide a caring home for Sheba. While she can be a bit skittish at times, she is always protective of her owner. She is accustomed to being indoors and has never slept outside. Sheba gets along well with both children and other dogs.

THIS IS A COURTESY POST!! PLEASE help save LIL BOW WOW, Wonderful pup! Gwinnett County Animal Control: ANIMAL ID: 102056.  NOTE: LIL BOW WOW is at the Gwinnett County Animal Shelter in Lawrenceville, GA.  PLEASE HURRY!  Help save him.  We are cross posting this sweet pup in hopes of getting him out and a great home.   URGENT NEEDS OUT BY FRIDAY 5/10 Lil Bow Wow was one of the sweetest dogs we took out this past weekend. He’s affectionate and is a cuddler and a lap dog. This poor guy really needs out of the shelter due to his poorly state, and now he’s at risk of being put to sleep. We need help to save Bow Wow’s life. Please read below to learn more about him. If you can help or have questions, please contact the shelter via the information in the post below. FROM THE SHELTER RESCUE OFFICE: “I hope this email finds you well! This plea is for Lil Bow Wow a 3yo FULLY VETTED male weighing 38.5lbs. On April 7th, a concerned citizen called regarding a skinny dog they found off Spain Road in Snellville. Lil Bow Wow had a microchip, but we have been unable to make contact with his owner. Lil Bow Wow came to us extremely emaciated with a body score of 1/9. He has thankfully put on a little weight but still has some skin issues he’s battling. Lil Bow Wow is great with people but tends to over correct dogs. He is super affectionate, extremely friendly, takes treats very gently, and is overall a very well-behaved dog. He is easily leashed, walked, and handled. He graciously allows us to check his teeth, paws, and tug slightly on his ears and tail. He absolutely LOVES rolling around in the grass and sunbathing, and belly rubs are the way to his heart. Our hope is someone has the time and patience to work with him so that he can finally put his past behind him. Due to his behavioral concerns, Lil Bow Wow is in need of a freedom ride by Friday May 10th. If you can find it in your heart to help this loving guy, it would be greatly appreciated! PLEASE reach out to me for more information. If you can't pull him, PLEASE help us promote him to other rescue organizations you may know. You can contact me at 678-245-2447 or by email at AnimalRescue@GwinnettCounty.com Thank you so much!”   IF INTERESTED IN FOSTERING RESCUE PALS WILL PULL WITH A COMMITTED FOSTER, PLEASE CLICK LINK BELOW TO APPLY:   Foster app for Rescue Pals Inc. https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/foster/GARP/Dog Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.May 7, 2024, 12:28 pm

Story
Bennie is the sweetest boy in town. I got him from lifeline animal project about 6 months ago and have loved our time together. Hes a big player and big lover. He is eager to learn and knows sit, stay, lay down, and shake. He gets along great with some dogs mostly bigger ones who can handle his rowdiness, but has met some he was reactive to. I advise using a kennel when not home as he likes to chew wood, and be careful of fences as he has no problem jumping them! He is very energetic and requires daily walks. Please reach out if you have any questions and i would love to answer them for you

These pups are in Decatur, Georgia too!

Story
Please contact ADOPTION (adopt@doggieharmony.org) for more information about this pet.Hi, I'm Milton and I'm being fostered by a dog trainer who's getting me ship-shape for the lucky people who adopt me. I love to play with toys or just hang out in the backyard with you. My foster mom says I look like a gremlin when I run around the yard, probably because of a big scar across my back. I don't talk about that -- it's in the past and I'm looking forward to a bright future with you! I do like the security of having my own private den (aka crate), especially when you must be away from home or if I eat in the company of other dogs. I may bark a little when you leave, so apartments, townhomes, or condos probably won't work because not all neighbors are understanding. The best part of me is that my foster mom will provide two FREE training sessions to make sure I settle in just perfectly to my new pad. Free training and a laid-back dude like me as your BFF -- that's a deal, right? Age: 2-3 years Weight: 65 lbs Temperament: Prefers calm, routine home and female dogs of the same size. Requires calm/older kids and sturdy adult handlers. Training: House trained, crate trained, knows commands, good off-leash Vetting: neutered, up-to-date on vaccines, heartworm negative. Questions: Schelby.Stuckey@gmail.com Adoption Fee: Waived; vet reference, background, and home check required. To ensure we're meeting both pet and adopters' needs, we ask potential adopters to complete an Adoption Application ( www.bit.ly/DH-Adoption ) for caretakers to review. Once your application is approved, we will bring the adoptable pet to your home for a preliminary visit. We are 100% donation-funded and our fees are equivalent (or less than) the cost to fully vet a new dog yourself. Please expect an adoption fee of $250; some of our urgent or long-term dogs have discounted fees.May 8, 2024, 8:11 am

Story
Meri desperately needs a foster or forever home! Meri is a sweet, affectionate goober of a Boxer mix that was saved from being euthanized at Dekalb Animal Control. She has been in a temp foster home and we're trying to keep her from going back to the pound.   She is 2 years old, and she loves to play. She also loves people and wants to please. Meri’s happy to follow you around and hang out wherever you are. She’s been through a lot, and we've been working with her to build her confidence and reassurance after being abandoned. She's thriving in her foster home and gaining more and more confidence.   She loves dogs and she loves cars. You don't have to ask her twice to take a car ride. She plays hard and respects when another dog tells her to back off but sometimes, she'll come back again in case they changed their mind and want to play. If she lives with another dog, it would be best if that dog is playful like her.   She is shy and timid with new people, and she will bark at them initially. If you ignore her, she stops barking pretty quickly and then she wants to be your best friend. She would benefit from a compassionate foster or adopter that would help her know she is safe. She makes friends for life, so once she meets you, you’re in. She thrives in a home with a routine. She would make a great running, walking, hiking partner and has no problem keeping up.   She is so sweet. She is housetrained and crate trained and goes in her crate easily. She likes to have some toys in her crate when she has to be in there. She has no food or toy guarding issues and she is non-destructive. She is very affectionate and eager to please and she loves snuggles. She is very treat/food motivated and takes food gently from your hand. She is very easy to train. Please consider giving this sweet girl a chance. Thank you!   Age: 2 years   Weight: 48 lbs Temperament: Gets along with all adults and older respectful kids, dogs around her size.  Training: House trained and Crate-trained. Vetting: Spayed, up-to-date on vaccines, heartworm negative and on prevention.   For questions about Maizie, please email,   aimiablepetcare@aol.com.  &#226&#128&#139To ensure we're meeting both pet and adopters' needs, we ask potential adopters to complete an Adoption Application (www.bit.ly/DH-Adoption) for caretakers to review.
