Hello, I bought him when he was a little puppy at a gas station back in 2016. He is currently 6 years old. I'm looking for a caring, loving pet owner who can provide him with a better home and better support as I'm currently experiencing financial instability. He loves children, gets along best with other dogs (if applicable). He's loving, loves attention, playful, and is a big baby. Loves being spoiled, etc.

Story
I adopted Sweet Pea from a rescue in 2015, she is a puppy mill survivor. She is currently about 12 years old and has a very calm, sweet demeanor. She can be playful and rambunctious when encouraged by her brother Tigger (Boston Terrier), and enjoys sleeping and snuggling with anything she can get her paws around. Although I'd very much like to keep Sweet Pea in my home, I'm unable to due to financial hardship. If possible, I'd like to make sure she stays with her brother Tigger, a 10 year Boston Terrier. I'm looking for a home that will give her (and hopefully her brother) an environment they'd thrive in. Both dogs have been very good with children in all their past-experiences. To describe their personality with children (and people in general), Sweet Pea takes a very curious, playful and motherly attitude and Tigger is very much the playful type.

Story
Rizzo is a high energy and playful pup.  He’s a ball of energy that loves his people. He’s very smart and obedient. He was rescued from a chained situation where he broke free and was found running in traffic in Tucker. He does have a scar on his neck, most likely from being chained. He was taken to the shelter where he developed pneumonia.  A foster brought him home to in November to help him recover. The vet gave him a 50/50 chance of survival. He's a fighter and he did survive.  Now he deserves a wonderful home.  He is 100% American Staffordshire Terrier but he is small like a pocket pittie. Rizzo can be playful and mouthy like a puppy. He needs a patient owner willing to work with his puppy behaviors and continue training.  He also has a medical condition known as a collapsing trachea.  For this reason, Rizzo can't take long walks on a leash even with a harness.  He's nervous around new people but only in the home. He can be protective of his people in the house but is great outside of the home meeting new people. He loves to play in the yard. He loves having lots of toys to squeak and play with and he loves having unlimited supplies of cow ears and bully sticks. He has no resource guarding issues and he isn’t destructive in any way.  He is great with dogs and cats and would love to live with another dog with a similar play style. He does need a fenced yard to run around in so he can get his energy out.  He can’t be outside for long periods of time in the Summer due to his collapsed trachea. Housebroken, but he needs to go outside first thing in the morning before you even brush your teeth. Age: 2 years  Weight: 46 lbs  Vetting: Up-to-date on vaccines, neutered and heartworm negative and up to date on vaccines Temperament: good with bigger kids and other dogs.  Training: House trained and knows how to use pee pads.   For questions, please email aimiablepetcare@aol.com   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. November 6, 2024, 12:45 pm

Story
loves kids, loves kisses and lapsSweet Rosie was abandoned at a church.  She was around a lot of kids who were out playing after church and she was very peaceful with them.  She has clearly been abused but despite her experience, she is the most loving, gentle lady.   She is fine around other dogs, non-confrontational.  She has not been cat tested.  She is in a kennel right now so we don't know about house-training yet.  She loves treats so she should be easy to train though. While she is fine with kids, I'm going to say older kids only because she does flinch with sudden movement, but has never shown reactivity or aggression.  She actually is a kissing fiend and can't get enough affection.  She is a big lap dog. Age: 1.5yrs   Weight: 45 lbs   Vetting: spayed, up-to-date on vaccines, and heartworm negative   Location: Colquitt, GA (3 hours away) but rescuer willing to conduct meetups in Atlanta   Contact for questions: janastoker@yahoo.com 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 to (or less than) the cost to fully vet a new dog yourself. Please expect an adoption fee of $300; some of our urgent or long-term dogs have discounted fees. November 6, 2024, 12:45 pm

Story
Jake  is a sweet, cuddly lovebug looking for his forever home. We believe Jake to be no more than two years old. He is super playful and high energy. He can run 3 miles in 21 minutes! His i deal home would be with someone who runs or hikes and wants a four-legged partner in crime for their adventures.   He also loves to walk and run on the treadmill. He gets along great with other dogs, especially those who have high energy like him and like to wrestle and play rough.  H e'd be an amazing agility dog if anyone is looking for that.  He can sit, lay down and high-five (his personal favorite). He can also “sit and wait” for his meals or to be let out of his crate. Jake is SUPER food motivated and eager to please, so he is very trainable. As food motivated as he is, he has zero resource guarding. He doesn't even resource guard his toys and those are his second favorite thing in life right behind cuddles. H e loves toys! He always wants to have a toy in his mouth.  He is house broken and has gone up to 10hrs before with no accidents!  He does still pull on the leash, but with the proper collar and training this will lessen.  He is not a fan of cats.  He's not the biggest fan of being crated but he isn't destructive, so he gets to hang out loose in the house when his foster Mom is gone.  He is a super snuggle bug and he loves to be on top of you. H e also grunts when he is happy!  Are you his new family? Age: 2.5 years  Weight: 69 lbs  Vetting: Up-to-date on vaccines, neutered and heartworm negative  Temperament: Good with older respectful kids and other dogs.  Training: house trained, crate trained,  He can sit, lay down and high-five. He can also “sit and wait” for his meals or to be let out of his crate.   For questions, please email aimiablepetcare@aol.com   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.

Story
Penny's best quality is the amount of love she has pouring out of her. She is looking into being a professional weighted blanket, as she's passionate about keeping people warm and as close to her as possible, while sharing her weight on top of them. She wants to play, but still isn't exactly sure how, and could use someone to teach her the basics. She would do well in a home where she can run around a yard and also go on walks for quality time and exercise. Really, she just needs a forever home that will love all of her!

Story
Rocho is fun, affectionate, and the best cuddler with the softest fur. He is 2 years old and 62 pounds of love! Rocho gets along with every dog he meets. In his previous foster home, he lived wonderfully with SIX young kids. Currently, he resides with two teenagers and loves to be their sidekick. Rocho landed in a crowded shelter due to a neglect situation and after some months found himself on the euthanasia list for space. Luckily, his foster family saw what a sweet boy he was and saved him. Rocho is house trained. He sleeps all night in his crate without any fuss and will even go in on his own when he is tired. He has excellent car manners and loves to go for rides. He is working on not pulling so much on the leash when he sees another dog. He just gets too excited! Rocho really wants to please his humans and loves to hear praises and get rubs. He is also very food motivated which makes training easy. He knows sit, stay, down, and leave it. Rocho loves to fetch and loves toys. He will often choose a toy to take on a walk with him and keeps up with it. He will also play by himself with a toy and stay entertained quite a while and at the same time his antics can keep you entertained! He precious laying on his back and holding a toy in the air above his own head or tossing a ball for himself. Rocho is a silly boy who would love to find his forever family. In return, he will give you endless wags and cuddles.
