Story
Priya is the cutest sweetest puppy! She is half Dalmatian and we think the other half labrador mix. She was the last of her litter and we are looking for a home for her. She’s is 8 weeks old. She was the only black one in the mix. The others were white. She’s a total cutie pie with a great personality! She’ll be a big dog. He needs a loving home. We don’t want her stuck outside. We want her to be a indoor dog that is well taken care of and loved with plenty of exercise. Please don’t take her unless you know you can keep her forever and give her all the time and money needed to care for her!

Story
Meet Waylon. I'm unsure of his actual breed but he is part Pit. He was left with me to watch while his owner went out of town and the owner never picked him up and blocked me so I cannot contact him. His owner adopted him from the Hall County Animal Shelter in 2023. Waylon is a wonderful dog! Such a cuddle bug! He thinks he's a lap dog. He likes toys and bones and in the cold, a sweater. I have never witnessed any aggression with him. He does pull a bit when on a leash but he is very smart and has gotten much better than when he was left with me. Sadly, I cannot offer him a permanent home. I had breast cancer and have had complications. I've had 10 surgeries and number 11 and 12 are upcoming soon. I cannot handle him during my recovery as it is long and extensive. I really want to find a loving home for this sweetheart. He will make an amazing companion with someone with love to offer.

Story
I have had Boomer for 8 years and he has been a man’s best friend without doubt. I adopted him from the humane society in Greenville, SC, in early college and he has been through so many stages of life with me. He is a very intelligent dog but he can be a little stubborn. I have a 1 year old daughter and she doesn’t know boundaries with dogs and is continuously getting in his face. He snipped at her the other day (it was My daughter’s fault) but it just has not set right with me. I do not want to get rid of him but I couldn’t live with myself if he were to bite her. I never wanted to be the person to give up on my dog but I genuinely don’t have the time to keep him or my daughter in check. If you are someone that is looking for a dog that will have your back and has a lot of personality, he is the one for you. Again he is a very intelligent dog, can learn almost anything you care to teach him.
