Story
Presley is about 6 years old or so. Loves to cuddle. Potty trained and sleeps all night on the couch without issue. She doesn’t love my young kids. They can be a little too friendly. Presley will growl and it scares my children badly. She has never bitten anyone but I’m sure it’s possible with my kids not understanding her personality. Presley would be best in a home with older kids or none.

Story
Hi, I'm McKennie a 6-year-old big, fluffy Golden/Pyrenees mix. I've been through some hard times. I was found by rescuers in Tennessee, but they were closing their rescue so they called AGB who couldn't say no to a beautiful boy like me. I had some skin issues, ear infections, and was heartworm positive but all those things have been treated now and I am in great shape with a beautiful light golden coat! I've spent time with AGB's certified behaviorist partners and they all say I am super smart, wanting to please and very devoted to the people I bond with! I can be wary of strangers but I warm up pretty quick. I love my walks and am gentle on the leash. I also love belly rubs, naps on the couch or the cool floor, and treats. I get along great with other social dogs and I've been with my current foster home for some time now. I'm ready for my forever home. I hope you'll want to meet me, McKennie!

Story
My name is Bunny and I'm a 2-year-old pretty little lady. Unfortunately, my family couldn't care for me anymore, so they reached out to AGB for help finding me a wonderful new family. Given the recent upheaval in my life, I am experiencing a little trouble trusting new people. However, once you spend some time with me and we bond, I will trust you and want to be with you as much as possible. I am sweet and loving like most Goldens and I get along well with children. I'm a good girl in the house, crate trained and housetrained. I am tons of fun to play with! I love being by my human's side and am always up for an adventure or just to hunker down and chill with you. I love to play with other social dogs too and I don't mind feline friends. I am ready to find my new forever family so if you think we might be a good match, hurry up and submit an application because a great catch like me!

Story
Hi folks, I'm Stevey. I'm a 1-year-old active boy and I'm a great medium size. I only weigh 39 lbs. I have 3 brothers and we were turned into a shelter by our owner and we stayed there in cages for about 3 months. Then, our time was up! We were scheduled to be put to sleep when Adopt a Golden Birmingham came swooping in and took us to rescue safety. As you can imagine, we're all a little timid after what we've been through! I'm currently in foster care learning how to be a house dog! I get along great with other playful dogs and I'm learning my manners such as crate training and not to jump. My foster dad says I'm going to make someone very happy soon. I hope you'll want to meet me soon so submit an application!

Story
Hi folks, I'm Macks. I'm a 1-year-old boy and I weigh about 47 lbs. My brothers and I were turned into a shelter by our owner and we stayed there in cages for about 3 months. Then, our time was up! We were scheduled to be put to sleep when the AGB Angels came swooping in and took us to rescue safety. Now that I've been out of a crate for a while in my foster home, I have loved sniffing out new experiences, running in the yard and going to doggie day care, where the folks there tell my foster mom that I am the best boy because I don't try to jump their fence or I am a gentleman to other dogs. I do like to check out what's on the counters in my foster home so foster mom has been teaching me that I have to get down. I love toys and have to learn to play with them, not eat them. I am eager to learn how to be your best friend and need a family who will spend a little time with me and give me lots of love. I hope if you're looking for a new family member you will consider adopting me, Macks!
