Story

Brodie is a three-month-old shepherd mix puppy that was adopted from one shelter and, three weeks later, turned into another shelter because he growled at the parents, unprovoked, and couldn’t risk a bite on small children. Really, he’s a puppy! We have him now, and he’s a great puppy who is house-trained, crate-trained, and even good with the kids and the other dogs in the house. This poor guy is three months old and has already been in two shelters. He deserves better, and if you would like to foster or adopt Brodie, please go to www.atlantalabrescue.com and apply. ##2312068##

She adores snuggling up with cozy blankets and cushions. / Not a fan of being left alone! • Health: A very health girl!

Story

Hi there! My name is Storm! I’m a 7-year-old Black German Shepherd, and I’m looking for my forever home. I’m super sweet and loving, especially with people – you’ll be my best friend in no time! I bond with my humans very deeply and will be a devoted sidekick to anyone who gives me love. If you notice in my photos my eye looks a little different, it`s because I had a cherry eye repair! It does not bother me at all and doesn`t stop me from seeing or being the best girl! Just adds to my charm!I’ve spent most of my life outside, but now I’m ready for a warm bed inside and lots of love and I have been LOVING it in my foster home! I’m a little nervous at first, but I promise, once I trust you, I’ll be your most loyal companion. I might not do so well with other dogs or cats, so it’s probably best if I’m the only furry friend in your home. But don’t worry, I’m really good at being a one-dog show! I`m not reactive across the street or anything, I`m just a little nervous with other animals that`s all. I am a pretty laid-back sort of pup! I even do great left home alone, I simply lay by the door and wait for you to return. I have been perfectly behaved in my foster home, non-destructive, housebroken, and sleep soundly in my bed and even my crate with the door open. In all honesty, my foster doesn`t even crate me because she says I am so well behaved! I’m also pretty smart and gentle with people. I know I’ve got a lot of love to give, and I’m so ready to start this next chapter of my life. I have been loving the spoiled life in my foster home and am a professional remote worker assistant. My foster parents said I am such a good girl and learning so much - they said they are so proud of me. It means a lot to me. I am a pro at going potty outside and walk perfectly on a leash - no pulling here! I`m also super quiet.If you’re looking for a snuggly, loyal buddy who will make you feel special every day, I’m your girl! Can’t wait to meet you!

Hi, I’m Brenna. I am very excited to meet you, and I just know we are going to be best friends. My hobbies include sleeping (a lot!), exploring the world (there’s so much to see!), and getting into a little trouble (I’m a puppy after all!). I don’t have much life experience yet, but I’m willing to learn if you have the time to teach me. If you have other pets in your home already, I would love to meet them! Do you think I might be the perfect match for you? I sure hope so. Love, Brenna!

Reign is a little over a year now and is a big goof and good protector. However, with growing our family we need to find him a new home that will give him a loving home and yard for him to run around in. Reign loves belly rubs and is a big sweetheart. Reign is very majestic and a beautiful large dog.

Loves kids, good with cats and dogs Calling all active families! Meet Misha, a 3-year-old, 70-pound black German Shepherd who’s as smart as she is stunning. This playful, eager-to-please girl is always up for a game of fetch, a good run in the yard, or some quality time with her favorite people and pup friends. ‍&#226&#153&#130&#239&#184&#143 Misha is a social butterfly—she adores humans, dogs, and even cats! Just a heads-up: she gets very excited to meet new friends and might greet them with some enthusiastic chatter. But once she’s said hello, she’s all about being sweet and submissive. While she doesn’t need another dog in the home, she’d love a furry playmate to match her energy. That said, Misha isn’t all go-go-go—she’s perfectly happy lounging around between adventures. Important Medical Info: Misha has Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency (EPI) and Atypical Addison’s Disease, meaning she requires daily medication and a strict feeding regimen (no sneaky treats!). Her EPI treatment can be costly, so she needs a family ready to manage her care long-term. The perfect home for Misha? &#226&#156&#148&#239&#184&#143 An active family with a fenced yard &#226&#156&#148&#239&#184&#143 A commitment to her medical needs &#226&#156&#148&#239&#184&#143 Bonus points if there’s a playful dog sibling!

Luke is an active one year-old shepherd mix! I adopted him from the Atlanta Humane Society when he was just three months old and we started training right away. Luke is energetic and he loves the outdoors. We hike and go for long walks all the time! He is house trained, and he loves to cuddle. He is also crate trained and he does very well with other dogs and children. He loves to cuddle and rest in his big bed and he loves to train and learn new things with me. He’s never bitten anyone and he loves to chew on his chew toys. I am looking to rehome him in a warm and loving environment. I am a single person, so Luke is used to a quiet environment, but he also goes to daycare and he is around other people very often. He is such a loving dog, and I want to ensure that he goes to a great home where he will receive what he needs.

Story

Smoke is a recuse that I saved from an abandoned house in the dead of summer in Georgia. She and her twin, Socks, were barely breathing or moving when I found them. I took them home, nursed them, weaned them, de-wormed them, then re-homed Socks. Smoke was raised with my 14 year old Pitbull (deceased Nov. 2023), and does well with other dogs. She’s super playful and equally skiddish. Smoke loves to play fetch, give kisses, and take long walks off leash. Due to her breed, she’s very sharp and requires a lot of mental stimulation. We train daily and she loves learning new tricks (she can sit, down & wait, high five, and dance). I’m only re-homing her TEMPORARILY 🤞🏽 until I find a new job. I was laid off last year and have since lost my home - I am living with family who will not allow me to Smoke in the home. I am seeking someone to love on Smoke and care for her until I can get back on my feet. I have a mental health condition and Smoke is my ESA - I feel lost without her.
