Story
Meet Tater, a loyal companion with a big heart and an even bigger personality. He’s incredibly friendly, loves being around people, and thrives on playtime whether that’s chasing a ball, running through the grass, or just enjoying the moment with his family. He’s also naturally protective, always keeping a watchful eye and making sure his home and loved ones are safe. That balance of playful energy and loyal instinct makes him a great fit for someone looking for both a fun loving dog and a devoted companion. Tater especially loves being in the grass and would truly benefit from a home with more space to run and explore, as we currently don’t have a yard. He’s ready to bring joy, security, and unconditional love into his next home.

Story
Meet Peanut Peanut is a cute little dog with a BIG personality. Peanut was returned to us due to his high energy and willful ways. He needs to be able to run and play and expend his limitless energy. For one so small, this boy needs to be exercised or else he gets bored. And we all know a bored pup is never well-behaved lol! Peanut also needs a family who give him their attention and make him a part of their activities. Because of his energy, Peanut must go to a home with a confinement fence so he can run and play safely. Peanut looks like an Australian cattle dog or kelpie mix, but it’s hard to know without a DNA test. He is adorable and has a cuddly side, but he’s also 29 lbs. of energy, smarts and will. You can see the intelligence in his eyes. They sparkle and dance with anticipation of something fun to do. We stress this because he is so cute, people can’t imagine that he needs so much exercise or understand how strong-willed he can be. Even his foster dad says the boy is an energizer bunny and is happier when he’s run it out. Peanut likes playing with other dogs. But he must be an only dog. Funny he does better with cats, especially those that stand their ground. We paid for Peanut to go through an extensive and intense training/boarding course for a month to more fully understand Peanut as well as give him the best chance for adoption. The trainers and Peanut made great progress. He learned basic commands and he learned how to focus. He loved the training. His new owners will need to attend a training session with the professional trainers who worked with Peanut to understand how best to keep his training going. Peanut is not a set and forget kind of dog. He is an incredibly special dog. Peanut would do best with a person who has a strong, steady and consistent approach and presence to guide him. Peanut is the kind of dog who might make for a great agility dog, an activity that works his mind and athletic abilities, while bonding him to his person. He’d be a great trail dog. He could even be a great farm dog, but he is not to be left outside. He must be an inside dog with a mindful owner. Peanut isn’t a big barker. He knows how to live in a house. He likes his chew toys. He walks well on a leash. Peanut will be a great companion for someone who is looking for an energetic, smart, agile, handsome, and eager to go pup. BUT if you are thinking about Peanut because he looks cute, which he is, this is not the dog for you. Only experienced dog owners should apply. Peanut has tremendous potential to be the dog of a lifetime with the right kind of guidance and training. If interested in welcoming Peanut to your heart and home, please submit an application online at: www.charlessmithgallhumanesociety.org. Please email our shelter (smithgallhumanesociety@windstream.net) or call our shelter at 706-865-4135 and leave a message to make sure we received your application. All adopters must complete an approval process which involves a reference check with current/recent vet and a brief home visit if located in the immediate area. We do permit out-of-state adoptions. Adopters MUST come to the shelter to transport their new family member home. We do not ship, nor do we transport them to their new homes. Adoption policies and application procedures are detailed at the shelter website: http://charlessmithgallhumanesociety.org/ under tab All Adoptable Animals. Charles Smithgall Humane Society (CSHS) is a No kill shelter. Animals in our care remain safe with us until adopted. Resident animals are either owner relinquished rescued from area Animal Controls or high kill shelters. The facility usually operates at capacity with a list of animals waiting for space to open.

Story
Bennett is looking for a foster until we can find him a forever home! Bennett is a dog that has come back to our rescue through no fault of his own. We originally pulled him from Newton County Animal Control in 5/2024, a day before he was going to be put down. He stayed at our rescue till 11/2024 when he got adopted. Due to financial difficulties with the adopters he has returned to our rescue and is looking for his forever home again. He is now about 3 years old, neutered, up to date on vaccines, micro-chipped, heartworm negative and on flea/tick/heartworm prevention. Bennett's a happy, fun loving dog! He has had play dates with our doctor's dog and they got along great. One of our vet techs took him on a run with her and he ran well right along side her. He enjoys going on walks and is calm in his kennel and doesn't get bothered with dogs barking around him. He loves a good stuffed animal to throw around the yard and carry in his mouth. But he can be cuddly too and will rest his head against your shoulder when you go in his kennel with him. If you're interested in meeting Bennett make an appointment to meet him by calling 770-787-4899. Adoption application and interview required for adoption. He is located at Ross Animal Hospital, Covington GA.
