Emmie is a one-year-old, 42-pound shepherd mix from a shelter we work with a lot because they send good dogs to us. They have really good volunteers who get to know the dogs, and there is a play yard at the shelter, so you can see how the dogs react. As usual, Emmie is a really good dog that is sweet, loving, calm, and clean and would make a great companion.

Story
Ellie is a four-year-old, small, 51-pound purebred German Shepherd who was surrendered to the shelter because she lived on a farm and chased the goats. She was adopted several months ago and is getting returned because they have three and six-pound dogs, and she sometimes plays too hard with them. Ellie is good in the house, calm and sweet, and great with people, kids, and other dogs, as long as they are not tiny ones.

Story
Hello there! I'm Big Boy, a 9-year-old pup with a heart full of love and a calm, laid-back personality. I might be a bit older, but that just means I've perfected the art of being a loyal and loving companion. I absolutely adore attention and affection-so much so that I might just demand it with my sweet, gentle ways! One thing to know about me is that I'm a bit of a howler-don't worry, it's just my way of communicating!I do have some special needs, though. I'm on a special diet to keep keep my sensitive stomach feeling its best. I also need to be able to go outside several times a day to do my business, so regular potty breaks are a must. I get along fine with other dogs, but I think I'd do best with ones who are just as calm and relaxed as I am. I'm really more of a homebody and would love nothing more than to be your low-energy buddy, lounging around the house with you.If you're looking for a sweet, lazy, and loving companion, I'm your guy!I also qualify for Foster First, which means you can foster me for 14 days prior to adoption to ensure I'm the perfect fit for your family!

Story
Lailee was abandoned in an apartment complex where I lived in Columbus Georgia. I didn't want her to be euthanized, I had that fear when I took her to animal control. I met a man who saw my tears because I didn't want to leave her after being with me 3 days. The older gentleman agreed to keep her till I got ready to return to Atlanta. He had a stroke recently. I'm now here and looking for housing for myself. Sleeping in my car here and there. Lailee needs a stable home. She's loving, energetic and playful.

Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
He’s 95lbs, 5 yrs old, neutered, and up to date on shots. Avid swimmer. Ball enthusiast. Adores people. He is very cuddly and wants to be near you even off leash outside. Hasn’t been around kids much, but the ones he has he’s great. He is dog reactive/aggressive, but lives with a small dog that he’s never been aggressive towards. Also has a few fur friends he’s great with. I am rehoming him because I bought a condo in midtown almost 2 years ago and he’s grown too anxious from all the construction, sirens, constant beeping etc. I feel so bad watching him struggle and I don’t believe he will adjust. He now needs more exercise than I can give him to take down his city anxiety. Ideally he needs a yard. The more exercise he has the less reactive he is with dog.

Or, how about these German Shepherd Dogs in cities near Atlanta, Georgia

Story
I’m Princess La Reyna and my fairy tale is just starting with you! I am 4 years old, healthy and spayed. I am a pure-bred German Shepherd. Clearly, I am so pretty, but I’m also an amazing girl. I weigh 57lb and am friendly with other dogs. I am not great in dog parks because I get so excited, but I am ok with one or two dogs. I love to give hugs and try to see you at eye level, so I could use a little training on “sit”. But once I learn my simple commands, I’ll be loyal companion and active walking buddy! I came to the rescue with a uterus infection, but I’m all cleared up with a clean bill of health, microchip, and negative heartworm test. My ideal forever home would include space for me to run on a regular basis, and an owner who understands the needs of German Shepherds.

We adopted her from a breeder when she was a puppy. She is 65 lbs and is not spayed because she has a heart murmur so the doctor is not sure she can be put under for the surgery. She is very high energy and needs a lot of attention and to stay busy. She’s very sweet and loving, and gets along with my 5lb shorkie. I am currently pregnant and unfortunately she just doesn’t fit our lifestyle. We do not have the time to spend with her nor do we have a backyard.
