Cobalt is calm, very affectionate, and great in the house. He does have some skin allergies that are now under control, and we’re committed to keeping him on the ALR account for his yearly check-up with the dermatologist.

Story
Hi, Im Apollo!<br/><br/>Im a sweet, silly, super-smart guy who believes every dog I meet could be my new best friend. I LOVE to play, chase is my favorite, but Im always up for a little wrestling, too! Im very respectful of other dogs and have made friends with pups of all sizes. I currently live with a 9-year-old bulldog mix, and we spend our days playing and our evenings relaxing together on the couch. I take corrections well and understand when another dog needs some space.<br/><br/>I can be a little shy when meeting new people and may take some time to warm up. If theres a dog around, though, Im much more confident and will happily say hello to my new dog friend first before introducing myself to their human.<br/><br/>Im housebroken and have a great mix of energy. I love going on adventures like hiking, exploring, and splashing around in streams, but Im equally happy taking a long nap on the couch with my people or dog buddy. Im also incredibly curious and intelligent. I learn by watching the humans and other dogs around me, and if theres cheese involved, Im an especially quick student. <br/><br/>Speaking of cheese... its probably my favorite thing in the entire world. Ive even learned where my foster family keeps it! Im still working on my manners around the kitchen, but Im a fast learner and now patiently wait outside for my chance at a cheesy treat.<br/><br/>I do have some anxiety, especially when Im alone, but Ive already made so much progress and Im working hard on feeling safe and confident. Im looking for a patient family who understands that settling into a new home takes time and will continue helping me build confidence. Having another dog in the home would be a huge bonus for me-I really, really want a dog buddy!<br/><br/>If youre looking for a playful adventure partner who can also happily curl up on the couch afterward, I might just be your guy.<br/><br/>p.s. I qualify for Welcome Trial, which means you can take me home for up to 14 days to see if we are a match before making things official.

We bred Bristol 3 times with our purebred Aussie. She was a great mother. Although she is not registered as a purebred, the owners we got her from said she was a purebred Aussie.She has also always been the Alpha with all of our dogs.She is now 8 and well beyond having another litter, though she has not yet been spayed.Bristol has a tight bond with our small family. She loves to be petted. She does fine staying at home during the workday. She is smart, loyal, and loving!We need to rehome ASAP. She comes with a crate, food, bowls, collars, leashes, etc.. No cost for the right Master.

Story
*Adopter must live in Metro Atlanta* Ariana is a super sweet and cuddly, 2 year old, 31 lb Australian Shepherd mix. She wants nothing more than to please her person. She is very much a velcro dog. Wherever you go, she will be in your shadow. Ariana is very food motivated which is excellent for training. She has been crate trained and house trained in her foster home. She also does really well for car rides. She loves to chew on her Nylabones and can often times be found walking around with one in her mouth waiting to settling down next to you. Ariana enjoys playing with other dogs but would be happiest as an only pet in her forever home so she can soak up all of the attention. She is a great companion for someone who works from home especially. Ariana does have heartworms, so she requires a home in Metro Atlanta, so she can get treatment at our vet. This treatment is covered in the adoption fee. She also has Nystagmus, but after visiting with a Neurologist and Ophthalmologist, she checked out well and there is no further treatment needed at this time. It is likely she was just born like this. To adopt her, please apply on www.orphanannierescue.org Her adoption fee is $350, which includes her shots up-to-date, microchipping, spay, and heartworm testing.

Hi, Im Baxter. Life didnt start out easily for me. I came from a sad situation before Atlanta Humane rescued me and showed me what love feels like. Ive worked with my friends here to learn how to trust and navigate the world, and I have made amazing progress! Sometimes it takes me a minute to trust and warm up to people, but once I feel safe, youll see how incredibly sweet and affectionate I am! <br/><br/>Im a gentle, playful guy who likes to have fun with the people I trust most. I will do my best with a patient family who understands that I just need a little time to settle in. In return, I promise to give you all the love Ive been saving up. I cant wait to run, play, and enjoy being a happy dog by your side! <br/><br/>Please come to Atlanta Humane to visit me soon! My heart is so ready to love. <br/><br/>Love, <br/><br/>Baxter <br/><br/>P.S. I qualify for Welcome Trial, which means you can take me home for up to 14 days to see if were the perfect match before making things official.
