Story
Harvey is a 3 year old American Bully mix found as a stray and never reclaimed. He is a shy boy with a lower amount of energy, looking for a quiet home to come out of his shell in. Harvey was pretty scared when he was picked up by animal control. We`ve give him some time to decompress at the shelter but what he really needs is a loving home that will be patient as he transitions yet again. He`s the epitome of an underdog who needs someone to step up and rescue him! Harvey does get along with other dogs at our shelter, we do recommend you bring yours to the meet and greet so we can be sure they get along. Can you help this special pup? He is desperate for an adopter or foster to give him a loving home!Harvey is microchipped, vaccinated and will be neutered prior to adoption. His adoption fee is $35.We do have a `slumber party` program which allows you to take a dog home before adopting to see if they are a good fit for your family.

Opal is not just any dog; she is a symbol of resilience and joy. Rescued from a hoarding case where she lived with 26 other dogs, Opal's story is one that tugs at your heartstrings. You can see more about the situation she came from here: https://www.facebook.com/forpetssakerescue/posts/593288159729729 Opal suffered from an untreated eye infection for months. She has been treated however she does have cosmetic damages to her eyes. This poses no issue medically and Opal has great eye sight. Opal was found in a challenging environment, surrounded by many other dogs, which often led to overcrowding and limited individual attention. Despite her tough beginnings, Opal has emerged as a vibrant and energetic dog. She embodies the spirit of resilience and demonstrates that love can flourish even in the most challenging circumstances. Opal thrives on movement and play. Whether it’s running in the yard, playing fetch, or simply jumping with excitement at the sound of a leash, Opal's zest for life is infectious.   PLEASE READ THIS TO ADOPT: Completed applications take precedence over inquiries.

Story
This is Ozzy! I adopted him when he was 8 weeks old in Picayune. He needs a home ASAP, as we are a military family and will be moving SOON. Ozzy is a huge cuddle bug, extremely loyal, and the most loving. I have basically trained him to be an emotional support dog. Ozzy needs lots of attention and love. He loves to go on walks and is a pro at fetch. He has never destroyed anything in the house and we leave him to free roam. He is great with cats, and has lived with other dogs as well. Ozzy is best suited for a couple, or someone single who has the love to give. He has not adjusted well to having a baby in the family, and I know that this is what is best for both of them. Please reach out if you think you are the right fit for this handsome boy! 🐾
