Story
Meet Dory – A Survivor with a Gentle Heart Hi, I’m Dory! I’m a calm, sweet girl with a big heart, ready to find my forever home. I get along wonderfully with dogs of all sizes and love being by your side, whether we’re enjoying a short walk, a car ride, or just relaxing together. My journey hasn’t been easy. I spent over two months in a shelter with broken legs and a dislocated hip, waiting for someone to save me. When my foster mom rescued me, I needed urgent surgery to survive. Thanks to her care, I’m here today, ready for a fresh start. I’m polite, quiet, and well-behaved—perfect for a small yard or apartment. While I might limp after longer walks, I still love visiting plant nurseries and stores, soaking up attention and affection. If you’re looking for a loyal, low-energy companion with a story of resilience and a heart full of love, I’d love to be yours. Could you be my happily ever after?

Story
Currently located in Chickamauga GA, with transportation available. Rosie came to us back in 2022 as a chained mother to a newborn litter of puppies. Her owner would not sign her over, though he did allow her to come stay with us while she nursed her puppies, and recovered. It was extremely tough though after having her vetted, we legally had to give Rosie back to her owner. Our hearts were broken. Well……fast forward nearly two years and Rosie is back with us! Her owner found himself in a tough situation and he knew we would always be there for Rosie if he ever needed to surrender her. She is having a blast being back “home”, millions of zoomies, hundreds of kisses, ridiculous amounts of toys being self tossed in the air and absolutely inhaling (and even stealing 🤣) the treat jar! We love this girl, and she always has a safe place to call home here, though having her long term means that we do not have the room to help others in need, and she definitely doesn’t get the time and attention that she deserves while here. She has lived on a log chain until she came to us, she is definitely lacking some proper socialization when it comes to mingling with other dogs, so at this time, we do think she needs to be the only pet in the home. While that cuts her adoption odds down to 5%, we are hopeful that the right person sees her listing at the right time and we can make a match! Rosie is absolutely beautiful, funny, and reeks of pure appreciation! Even though she has the right to hate humans, she is resilient and is great with all people including children. Please share her biography and visit our Facebook page for more pictures and videos. This really is an extra special girl!

Story
Looking for a little bit of puppy energy, without the puppy, to add to your life? Meet Brutus! He is a guesstimated 2-year-old little pittie dude looking for a forever family of his own. He arrived at the shelter in rough shape, so is going to need some extra TLC to help him get back to peak health. He has the puppy enthusiasm and urge to learn and grow, but also the maturity to have an off switch when the excitement has passed. He is a VERY food motivated boy, so training should be a breeze with his new humans. He also loves going for walks to explore, when the weather isn't so gross. So may love being your warmer weather exploration companion and sidekick. We think he'd love having an easy going but still playful dog friend to learn and grow with. He may be best with no cat or small critter friends though, as we've noticed a bit of a prey drive when small friends are scurrying about.
