Story
Ladies and Gentleman start your engines" Indie is here! This is one fun, active and loving dog! First thing that comes to mind when I think of Indie, is The Indianapolis 500. She is fast, has lots of fun power and is loyal to her sponsor/family. Indie just came back to us through no fault of her own. Sadly, her parents have been juggling work schedules and could not make it work. Indie has a wonderful temperament, a loyal and sweet blend of Cattle Dog and Australian Shephard. She would be ideal for an active, attentive family with a fenced yard. (Only reviewing applications with fenced yards) Did I mention she's an Internet sensation in Dalton? Many have seen her cruising around downtown in the infamous Red Convertible and eating at local eateries. This gal fits in everywhere and loves having a side kick.Come meet our "Winner"; she will steal your heart!To adopt this pet, please go to hsnwga.org, 'Adoption' then 'Application for Adoption', to complete an online application to be preapproved. Due to the high volume of applications received, our Adoption Coordinator will only contact the applicant that best meets the needs of the pet.

Story
Batman is a rescue I adopted 4 years ago. He has high anxiety and is a nervous dog but is very sweet once he overcomes his fears. He has made much improvement but definitely would need a patient owner willing to slowly work with him to get over his fears. He now will come up to people and allow people to pet him. He also loves cuddling on the bed. He loves dogs even more than he loves people and will learn from them and a home with another dog would be best for him. He also gets along great with cats and older kids who are able to respect his space when he asks for it. He is still fearful of being leashed (though we have been working on that), jumping in cars, and being picked up so a fenced in yard is a ideal as walks are tricky. I have been able to crate train him and he must be crated at night due to waking up in a panic at the slightest noise. He only shows fear-aggression when cornered or picked up. Even then, he will only bare his teeth and warning nips.

Story
We adopted Rue from a shelter at 6 months old. He is sweet and likes people, and loves to play. He is energetic and likes to be taken on walks and play often. He is very well potty trained (we've only ever had one accident in the house in 3 years) and he doesn't chew things up, get into the trash etc. He's very well-behaved in the house. Since getting Rue we have struggled with intense reactivity and anxiety. He does not like any other animals, especially dogs, and is aggressive toward them in and out of the house. We've tried exposure, anxiety medication, and three different trainers who used different approaches and nothing has solved the issue. He also is very nervous and anxious and it can be intense. As a result of these behavior issues, especially when we are considering having children soon, we're making the difficult decision to rehome Rue. We believe he'd do best in an area with a lot of land or a farm outside of the city, and a home with no other animals.

Male, 2 yrs 7 mos
Cleveland, TN
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Good with dogs, Good with cats, Needs experienced adopter,
Story
My husband and I found our precious baby boy in a flea market in Alabama, as soon as we saw his adorable face our hearts melted and he had to come home with us. Unfortunately the land we rent is being developed so we are having to move out and sadly cannot take all of our dogs with us. Dante is now about 1 year and 8 months as of this month, since we brought him home we did notice he was very shy with my husband, and soon learned he had a particular fear or distrust towards males, but I'm sure that with enough love, time and attention he will learn to trust!

Story
Melvin is VERY loving. He's silly, loyal and very easy to love. He needs a big yard to run around in. Ours is too small. We adopted him from the shelter here in Cleveland, TN. He was so grateful, and let us know that with lots of lovins'. It breaks my heart to rehome him, but I love him enough to do what's best for him. My husband and I are 70 years old and don't have the energy we used to. Melvin needs an energetic family to walk him and play outside with him. He loves my 7 year old grandson. He let's him put glasses and hats and silly things on his head without protesting. Lol. I guess all I really want for Mel is for someone to love him like we do. It isn't hard to do, believe me.

Story
Miska is a loving, curious, gentle and playful 8 mo. old spayed female Australian Shepherd/Border Collie mix. We purchased Miska and a littermate from Tri-State Humane Society when she was 9 weeks old. Now that the pups are older we find we are too busy for two dogs and need to find new owners for Miska. Miska needs an active family with a large yard, farm, or ranch. She is gentle and playful with children and other dogs. She is potty trained for outside as well as using a pad. Highly intelligent, Miska learns quickly with motivation and repetition and loves to please. Her breed does best when kept busy with tasks. Commands she responds to are sit, down, stay, off, heal. She especially likes hide and seek games, and is learning to fetch.

Story
Leo is an silly playful male Border Collie mix that was born in April 2017. He loves to run, go on car rides and cuddle. He enjoys being with people and is a good fit for older children. Leo is already housebroken and would enjoy having a fenced in backyard. A privacy fence would be best. Leo prefers the company of big dogs over little ones. If you own another dog, we can do a meet and greet to see if they are compatible. Kitties, unfortunately, are not a good fit. Due to a genetic skin disorder, Leo must take medication every other day. For a wonderful dog like Leo, it is a small price to pay. Leo is anxious to have a family of his own.
