Story
Opie is a kind soul. He loves long walks and belly rubs. He is mild mannered and energetic. His favorite pastime is looking at cows and grazing like one. He also enjoys rolling in grass and playing fetch. Think Airbud but cuter. He enjoys a combination of wet and dry food. We think Opie is around 5yrs. Unfortunately a family member abandoned him at our family home and we have taken over his care. My parents are elderly and incapable of caring for him any longer. My partner and I are relocating out of state and can not bring him along. We are looking for an experienced pet owner to take Opie on. Ideally someone who has both the space and time to care for him.

Story
Meet Piggybeast, a 5 year-old runty pit of about 45 pounds with pretty brindle coat, named for the snorty noises she makes when deeply relaxed. She loves walks, car rides, and running through the woods. She has energy, but is also happy to lounge around. She is spayed, housebroken, healthy, up to date on shots, and doesn't bark much unless she sees a stranger outside. She gets along with some dogs and has been doing great at the place we board her where she gets to play with a large group of dogs. She is not good with cats or chickens, and can be slow to warm up to new people. With a gentle approach, she has been doing good. We originally intended to temporarily foster her after she was abandoned by her previous owner -- that was 3 years ago! But we have reached a point where we can't keep her because of the risk to our cats. We are happy to help with costs to get her set up in a new home where she doesn't have to be isolated from the rest of the animals like she is with us.

Meet Senior Boy Bill – Your Next Best Friend!Hi there, I’m Bill — a wise and wonderful gentleman around 8 years young. I found myself in the Coweta shelter without much hope, but thankfully the amazing folks at Hearts ’n Homes Rescue gave me a second chance. Now, I’m just waiting for my forever family to find me!Right now, I’m staying in boarding because there are no available foster homes, and while I’m grateful to be safe, what I really want is a warm bed and a loving human to call my own. I’m a sweet, treat-loving guy who knows basic commands and will even “talk” to you when I want more cookies — it’s kind of my thing!I’m neutered, heartworm negative, and fully up to date on all my vaccines, so I’m ready to go! I get along well with other dogs and would love to meet yours if you’d like to set up a meet and greet.If you’re looking for a loyal, mellow, and loving companion, please consider making space in your heart and home for me. Visit www.heartsnhomesrescue.org to fill out an application — I’d love nothing more than to be home for the holidays. 💙

Story
Neco is an approximately 5 year old blue APBT. He showed up at my mother-in-law's home in 2022 and his owner never came forward for him. My MIL's health is declining and she knows she will not be able to keep him. He is neutered, microchipped, HW negative (latest test in Sept. 2025) and on prevention, and current on vaccines (updated in Sept. 2025). He is housebroken, crate trained, and well-behaved. He is dog friendly (you can see him pictured with one of our girls) and cat-possible with proper introductions (when boarded, he has seen cats and didn't seem to show interest so we believe he COULD acclimate to kitties, but please know he has NOT lived with them). Application, home visits, adoption fee, contract, and proof of Pit friendly housing are REQUIRED for adoption. Neco is not just looking for any home, or the first home that comes along; he is looking for an amazing FOREVER home with someone who will be committed to him and adore him for the remainder of his life.

Story
Meet Ollie! (The sweetest boy)Ollie is a 4-year-old Pittie/Staffordshire Bull Terrier mix with the heart of a teddy bear. He was found wandering the streets of South Atlanta, skin and bones, forgotten and overlooked. Life had not been kind.When he landed at Lifeline, staff saw how sweet and adoptable he was—but after just three weeks, kennel stress took its toll. Ollie was scheduled for euthanasia. He had *until the end of the day*. Luckily, a family stepped in, willing to foster him.Ollie is strong, sweet, a little goofy, and totally lovable. He’s neutered, chipped, and vaccinated. Ollie’s looking for a home that can keep up with his energy—and his cuddles. While he needs some good run around time, he also is good with hanging out with his human and chewing on a tough toy, or snuggling on the sofa. He loves getting scratches, car rides, and observing nature (aka: stalking wild animals). He is crate and potty trained.Give this survivor the forever home he deserves.
