Meet Georgia - A brave Momma ready for her happy ending Adoption Fee: $399 includes transport Adoption Application - Copy & Paste https://forms.gle/FmtRtYxQNnemdkdw9 Georgia is a beautiful Australian Cattle Dog mix with a heart as big as her journey has been tough. Dumped while pregnant, Georgia did her best to survive—and protect the life growing inside her. She found her way to an abandoned house and gave birth to her puppies in heartbreaking conditions, surrounded by filth and garbage. Through it all, she stayed strong and devoted to her babies. By her side the whole time was her little companion, Rick also left behind. A kind-hearted Good Samaritan began feeding Georgia and Rick and, after the puppies were born, reached out for help. That’s when we stepped in and brought them all to safety. Georgia has now weaned her puppies and is thriving in a loving foster home. She’s a little shy at first, but once she feels safe, she blossoms into a sweet, affectionate, and loyal companion. She gets along well with other dogs and would love a calm, patient family who can show her the love and kindness she’s always deserved. This brave mama has come so far—and now she’s ready for her forever home. If you’re looking for a loyal best friend with a gentle spirit and a courageous heart, Georgia is your girl. Please fill out an adoption application today and give Georgia the happy ending she’s been waiting for. Georgia is currently 2-3 years old and weighs about 50lbs. Here's the adoption application, please copy & paste. https://forms.gle/FmtRtYxQNnemdkdw9 **To see all of our pets available for adoption, please copy this link. https://www.petfinder.com/search/pets-for-adoption/?shelter_id%5B0%5D=AL450&sort%5B0%5D=recently_added Paws of Dixie Animal Rescue adopts in the New England area.

Story
Meet Bandit! Adoption Fee: $449 includes transport Adoption Application - Copy & Paste https://forms.gle/FmtRtYxQNnemdkdw9 Bandit is a fun-loving, energetic Australian Cattle Dog mix — we think he might be a Cowboy Corgi, thanks to his petite size, short little legs, and that classic cattle dog coloring and personality. Bandit was found wandering and brought to the local shelter, where his foster mom instantly fell in love. True to his breed, Bandit tends to bond closely with one person (his foster dad is his favorite!), but he’s friendly and affectionate with everyone he meets. He’s a social butterfly who loves greeting new people and dogs — he recently charmed the crowd at a local Oktoberfest! This clever boy is always up for learning something new. When he first visited the dock with his foster siblings, Bandit was nervous around water. But just a couple of weeks later, he was leaping off the ramp to fetch toys — life vest and all! He’d make an amazing little dock-diving partner. Fetch is one of his favorite games, and tennis balls are pure joy in his world. Bandit also loves getting out for walks and hikes. Exploring new places and sniffing everything along the way are some of his favorite ways to spend time with his people. Bandit currently lives with three other dogs, two cats, and gets along great with children. Like many herding breeds, he can be a bit mouthy and may try to herd smaller animals, so a home that understands cattle dog behavior would be ideal. Bandit would thrive in an active home where he can get plenty of walks, playtime, and mental stimulation. After a day of adventures, he’s also a world-class snuggler who loves curling up for cuddles at night. If you’re looking for a loyal, smart, and spunky companion, Bandit just might be your perfect match!

Story
Meet Penelope! This 5-year-old Heeler/Terrier mix has one of the sweetest, most endearing faces you’ll ever see — complete with a perfectly imperfect little smile that could melt anyone’s heart. Her grin might be a bit crooked (her vet thinks she may have had an old injury), but it just adds to her charm and never slows her down. She’s happy, healthy, and full of love to give. Penelope is gentle, well behaved, snuggly, and affectionate — the kind of dog who leans into you for pets and makes you feel instantly at peace. She’s a little shy at first, but once she warms up, she’ll be your most loyal companion and biggest cuddle buddy. She’s very social and does wonderfully with kids, cats, and other dogs. She’s also a smart girl who’s both crate trained and house trained. Penelope is spayed, fully vaccinated, and ready to find her forever family — one that will appreciate her beautiful smile and even more beautiful heart.

Story
This is Ruthie May, an Australian Cattle Dog mix born in Arkansas. This sweet-natured girl loves her humans like no other and will suit well in a home where she can get unconditional love and affection. Over the past 4 years with Ruthie May we have learned that she is her best self when surrounded by humans. She will quickly come to you and grab your hands for pets and her favorite, belly rubs. Ruthie needs to be in an only dog household as she gets anxious around other dogs. My husband and I’s financial situation has changed and unfortunately we can no longer take care of her in the capacity that she deserves. She truly is the sweetest dog and we are so sad to be considering rehoming her. If you love a sweet natured and affectionate dog who both loves to play and cuddle on the couch, Ruthie May is your girl.
