Story
Now, I'm not the famous author, but I am just about the coolest dog that there ever was and I think that that is enough to help me make history, right? Hi there! I'm Bark Twain, a 5 year old Mixed Breed who is looking for a fresh start and partner to help me write down my happy tails. I am super handsome, super loving, and really ready to make someone happy. I am an active fella, who would love to have a buddy to go to the park with, to go hiking or fishing with, or to even just hang out in the backyard with. I am a fetch machine and love to play, play, play. When I'm not playing, I love tummy rubbins and learning new tricks. I am food motivated and enjoy learning new things, so I pick up on new commands quickly; I am really eager to make my people happy! I am a total ham and love any attention that I can get, so people of all ages are a-okay by me! Other than being just a smidge bouncy, I should be just fine with kiddos, if you are willing to make sure that I learn not to bounce on them! With other dogs, I'm kind of hit or miss, but no one is friends with everyone, right? I adore one of the girly dogs in my foster home and may be able to live with another calm, female companion. I would also be just fine being your only child and center of attention. The most remarkable thing about me is the size of my heart and my ability to devote myself to the people I love. You can count on me to snuggle you when you are sad and play with you when you are happy. I will be your loyal companion for life! Augusta Dog Adoptions is a 501c3, foster- based rescue.

Story
Bricks is a 9 year old, pitbull mix who is absolutely built like a brick. Short, heavy, thick, brown-ish red. He's a low rider with tiny little legs and minimum ground clearance. Bricks is a charming little guy who likes to bounce, sniff and explore! He's happy, friendly and loves to cuddle up under a warm blanket. He was house trained but may need a refresher after being kenneled. He's excellent on-leash and is the perfect little partner to stroll with you around the neighborhood. Bricks was adopted out from a rescue years ago. Shortly, after being adopted from them, he stripped his collar while out for a walk and hurt another dog. Tougher than the 90's crime bill, Va law labeled Bricks as "dangerous" and he will pay for that mistake for the rest of his life. One strike, he's out. He's lucky he isn't dead. He was able to live at a sanctuary ran by that rescue but when they closed, Bricks had no where to go. Lucky for him, the President of Augusta Dog Adoptions is famililar with Va law and was willing to care for Bricks as legally required. Bricks can be adopted within the state of Va with additional requirements. But hey, we have good dogs that no one wants so the chances of that are slim to none. Brick's best chance of finding a home is out of state. He cannot go to a home with cats. He has been ok with some dogs but dominant/aggressive with others. The safest place for him is in a home without other pets. I don't know how to tell someone they should adopt a dog with such a label. You would just have to meet him for yourself. He's little and kind and cute and funny and he deserves to have a family who loves him. A reduced adoption fee of $100 does apply for Bricks, our seniors, special medical and behavioral needs dogs and other "slow to adopt" dogs!

Story
PENIS AMPUTATION! Now that we have your attention....Meet Tywin! We want to tell you all about him and will get to the penis amputation part too. We promise! Tywin is a mixed breed dog who is about 4 years old and weighs 45 pounds. He came to us from our local shelter when they were full and in need of help. Tywin is the perfect gentleman in many ways! He has wonderul manners! He is trusty worthy inside the house and will patiently lounge on your couch when you are away from home. He loves the company of every human he has ever met and longs for the attention and stability of his own family. Tywin is also a lover of nature. He enjoys laying in the yard or by a sunny window, admiring the squirrels and dreaming up ways to catch them! When Tywin first came to us, we noticed that the "lipstick" never fully went back into the "tube". After several vet visits, it was decided that his best chance to be comfortable was to amputate the end of his penis. Tywin healed quickly and now functions completely normally. I bet you wouldn't even know what he was missing if we didn't tell you! We have put a lot of energy, love and financial resources into Tywin's care and hope to find a home that will value and treasure him as much as we do! Tywin cannot live with other dogs or cats but would be perfect for almost anyone who is looking for just one, well behaved, dog to adore! A reduced adoption fee of $100 does apply for Tywin, our seniors, special medical and behavioral needs dogs and other "slow to adopt" dogs!

Story
My name is Lulu and I want to tell you a story of luck, both good....and bad. My bad luck started when I ended up in a rural, over crowded shelter. I was adopted twice (good luck!) and returned twice (bad luck! See how this is going to go?), once for chasing a cat and once for sleeping on the couch! I spent over 200 days in a kennel in a shelter!!! Bad luck! But they let me stay for over 200 days when they could have euthanized me after a week. Good luck! Then, I really hit the jackpot when an Augusta Dog Adoptions Foster Family offered to take me home and make me the luckiest girl in the world! I was all like....is this the Bellagio? or the MGM? The accomodations are immaculate and I'm thankful to be here! In my foster home, I am the perfect sister to an old dog, a young puppy and the most awesome pre-teen boy around! I sleep on the couch (yeah, that's right!), in the bed, play in the yard, ride in the car and help my foster mom do all of her house work! I'm a smart girl and I've been around long enough to learn some cool tricks! I'm 7 years old and 56 pounds and I know how to sit, shake with BOTH hands and lie down. I am just about perfect except that I get really stressed out if you leave me alone! Over 200 days in a shelter and bouncing around from house to house has taken it's toll on me. I'm afraid you will leave me and where I will end up if you don't come back. I need to be crated when you leave but I will pee and maybe even poo in there because I'm so upset. If you leave me and don't put him in a crate, I might tear down your blinds or eat a rug or something. I know that everyone has to leave the house sometimes but I sure do wish that I could find a family who is home most of the time and is willing to work with me. I promise to pay you back by doing the best I can and loving you more than anyone else ever has! So whadda ya say? Roll the dice, take a chance, I might be the best dog you could ever have!

Story
Simba is currently in a medical foster - applications for this sweet guy are still open! MEDICAL FOSTER MOM UPDATE, 2/27/25: "So far he’s been fine with the other dogs and the cats. He will do the paw smack [with cats] to initiate play if they are bouncing around but has shown no aggression towards them just curiosity. Having said that my cats aren’t afraid and don’t run away from him so could be different depending on the cat. He is very human attached and listens well… likes to play but not overly hyper….He has been close to some person in a home… he went strait for the couch and my bed… I don’t let [my pets] on those items [due to] fur and he got right down when I told him but he would be a good snuggle bum 😂" Looking for a sweet, doofy boy? Here he is! Simba has the sweetest face and loves showing his affection. He is very strong and would greatly benefit from an Obedience Training class as he is a bit willful. He LOVES treats, though, but sometimes forgets to be GENTLE! A mature pup of about 5 years old, Simba appears to be house trained. Favorite pastimes include tug-of-war with a rope toy and FETCH with his tennis balls. His energy, thank goodness, isn't endless and he tires after short but rowdy stints. He's a little insecure, whining some when ignored, but separation anxiety can be helped with patient training! All in all, we see lots of couch potato potential! We think kids 8+ might be best. Simba lived with another pup in his previous life and would likely acclimate well to a mutual K9 buddy! If you like your pups like a good cup of coffee, sweet & strong, Simba could be the fur-buddy for you! Call the shelter to set up a meet & greet and take this guy home! updated: 2/28/25

⭐𝐀𝐃𝐎𝐏𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍 𝐅𝐄𝐄𝐒 𝐒𝐏𝐎𝐍𝐒𝐎𝐑𝐄𝐃⭐ Sweet & resilient! Saffy's been through a lot, but even so, she is so gentle and affectionate and just happy to be here. She came in as a stray emaciated and riddled with skin issues and health problems. She also has a "palsy" (facial droop) but it does not effect her normal day-to-day operations and is otherwise healthy! Princess Saffron enjoys walking in the woods, soaking up the sun and sniffing the breeze. She needs some work on her manners (counter surfer), but still easy to manage as she is SO EAGER to learn and please. She doesn't bark very often and appears house-trained. Loves people and so far seems friendly with other dogs. Always smiling! updated 2/05/25
