My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

5 YEARS OLD

75 POUNDS

5 Years old

75 lb

‌

He needs to be the only dog in your life as he is not fond of sharing his attention with any other animal. He wants his very own human all to himself. We do not recommend a home with kids.

Dash came from a back yard breeder that surrendered him once he wasn’t bringing in the money for him anymore. It was very sad to see Dash in the shelter the first few days, as you could tell he was not handled by his previous owner except to be brought out to breed then be put back up. He would flinch anytime you would go to pet him or love on him, and he was even unsure of taking treats from anyone. He was shut down and confused.

‌

After a few weeks in the shelter he finally started to understand what attention felt like and what yummy treats we had, so he started coming around. He goes out on walks every day and loves to go to the play yard to explore.

More about this shelter

We are the Habersham County Animal Care & Control. We intake from Habersham County Georgia. We take in strays, owner surrenders, abandoned and abused animals.

We take in approximately 200-300 animals monthly. In order to get them out into safe and loving homes, time is of the essence! Our facility was not built for the volume we encounter.

The shelter provides safe haven for stray and abandoned animals, and makes every effort to find good homes for available cats and dogs. We hope both County residents, and non-residents, will choose the adoption- option for our deserving pets,
