Story
Hi there, I'm Jed! I'm young and full of life, always ready for a game of fetch or a romp around the yard. My days are packed with energy, and I just love to share it with everyone I meet. I'm as sweet as can be, and I've never met a person or a toy I didn't like. I'm also super friendly, always wagging my tail and ready to make new friends. My playful nature means I'm always up for a game or a fun adventure. I'm looking for a forever home where I can share all this love with.

Hello, I'm Darla! Life in the shelter is okay, but I dream of a place I can call my own. I'm sweet as sugar and friendly to everyone I meet. I'm a loyal companion, always ready to lend a listening ear. I might be a bit mouthy, but that's just my way of communicating. I promise to fill your life with joy and unconditional love. I might need a little patience and understanding, but I promise it's worth it.

Hello, I'm Bolt. I may not be a superhero, but I promise to be your loyal sidekick. I'm the kind of dog who loves to cuddle up close. I'm not one for high-energy antics, preferring a more laid-back approach to life. What makes me truly special is my ability to connect with humans. I love to give hugs, and if you're feeling down, I'm right there, leaning into you, offering comfort.

Hi there, I'm Gabriel. I'm a sweet, laidback guy who knows how to have fun too. Playtime is my favorite, but I also enjoy just hanging out with my human friends. I get along great with other dogs, so if you have a furry friend at home, we're sure to be buddies. I'm good on the leash, making me the perfect companion for walks in the park or around the neighborhood. I'm friendly, and I love meeting new people. I'm just a happy, loving dog looking for a family to share my joy with.

Luce is a 60-pound, year-old black beauty. Luce is a strong girl. She does well with dogs she knows and prefers her friends to be submissive to her. She was born in July 2020 so isn't a puppy but still has some puppy energy. She loves sniffing and exploring her foster family's back yard. Luce enjoys nightly cuddles on the couch with her foster parents and seeks attention from her humans: large and small. She is a total love bug and pretty too. Luce is crate trained, spayed & microchipped and up to date on all vaccinations. Like any young pup she may need some training but truly is the sweetest girl!  Luce would love to have a family of her own - could it be yours?

Story
Indra is an active and exuberant dog who enjoys chasing a ball and doing any kind of skill or trick for a treat. She is very food motivated and loves to learn. She will excel in a household where she has access to frequent mental and physical exercise outlets. She is very dog social, but can be quite energetic and a bit “too much“ for certain dogs. Her ideal home would be one that is willing to provide her with ongoing training and structure, as well as regular exercise. She can be pushy, so she will require someone who can be a firm and clear leader for her. She focuses a little too much on the cats so would not suggest cats in her forever home. She does well with older kids. She'd make a terrific walking/hiking buddy!  Indra is medium sized (40lbs-ish), spayed, microchipped, and current on vaccines. She was originally picked up as a stray and had a litter of puppies a few days later. Her puppies have all been adopted and now it's time for Indra’s happily ever after. To meet Indra, please submit an adoption application at www.dirtroaddoggiesrescue.org. An application does not commit to adopt.  ##1601582##

Story
Lilo is a spunky, hilarious sweetheart who is so loving you’d never know the neglect and abuse she endured for years. She was rescued from horrible conditions and nearly didn’t make it. Fortunately, Lilo got a new lease on life and has certainly made the most of it! Here's what Lilo's foster has to say about her: "When I first got Lilo, she wouldn't come anywhere near me. She was scared and untrusting after all she'd been through. Now, she's a vibrant girl who makes me smile and laugh every single day. She's a total goofball and the queen of ridiculous facial expressions and dramatic sighs . She's also the BIGGEST snugglebug and will gladly curl up beside you whenever possible. I always have my phone nearby to take a photo or video because she's always up to something adorable and/or hysterical! Lilo also LOVES to play! If I need to get stuff done without interruption, I'll just give her a chew toy and she’ll keep herself occupied! She also loves to play with people! Wave a tug toy around and she’ll go into total puppy mode trying to chase it—zoomies and all! Lilo is one amazing girl and I am so excited for her to find the home of her dreams!" Lilo has learned what it means to be safe and is over-the-moon happy just to be around those who show her love. Whether she’s out on a walk or snuggling beside you—she just wants to be your sidekick! Lilo loves other dogs but should still be supervised with other pups for now, as she doesn’t always read dogs’ more dominant social cues as playful. It doesn’t take much to make Lilo happy—all she wants is love! If you think you can give her the life she deserves, please visit our website and fill out an application! https://www.pupandcatco.com/                                                                              Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.We do not have a shelter facility and our pets are housed in foster homes, vet clinics and local boarding facilities. Many of our adoptable pets attend adoption events each Saturday at Mall of Georgia Petsmart in Buford, Georgia from 11:30-3:00 pm Please check with us to find out if a particular pet will be available.

Theodore is a friendly and affectionate dog. He is having a rough time adapting to shelter life and just wanted to go hide in the woods during our walk😢 He would make an excellent companion for the right person who will help him to trust. He came to the shelter as a stray.

Hello, I'm Fiona. I'm a mellow soul, and I love to lounge around, enjoying the simple pleasures of life. I may be a bit shy at first, but once I get to know you, I'm as sweet as can be. I'm also quite friendly with my fellow canine companions. I've been told I have a calming presence, and I think that's because I just love to love. I enjoy gentle pets, soft whispers, and the occasional treat.

Story
I found her already an adult as a stray three years ago. She was in horrible condition, skeletal and riddled with parasites. Today, she is a remarkable dog, healthy, happy and full of energy and love. Approximately five or six years old, 60 pound boxer mix. She loves to be with other dogs, but is boisterous and plays a bit rough so medium and large dogs would be better. She is potty trained and crate trained but now sleeps loose inside at night with no issues. Loves to run, go for walks and play outside. She is a family dog that is used to always being with us and hates to be alone. Needs other dogs for company or someone home a lot. She loves all people but might be a bit too high energy for young children. She is very sweet and affectionate. Unfortunately, she is a born chaser and cannot be around cats or small animals unsupervised. She adores our cats, but her hunting instincts take over at times and it's just no longer safe.
