My story

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

Meet Atlas, a one-year-old Border Collie mix looking for a new beginning! He was surrendered to the shelter when his previous family could no longer care for him due to time constraints and personal issues. Atlas has spent his entire life outdoors, so he hasn't had much exposure to life inside a home. He's lived with older children but lacks clear boundaries and structure, meaning he'll need some dedicated training and guidance to become his best self.
Atlas is smart, energetic, and eager to learn-qualities typical of his breed-so with the right commitment, he has the potential to excel. He'll benefit from a family who can invest time in teaching him basic manners, house training, and giving him plenty of mental and physical stimulation.
If you're looking for a dog with a lot of potential and you're up for the rewarding challenge of helping him adapt, Atlas could be the perfect fit for you! He's waiting for a family who can give him the time, patience, and love he needs to thrive

More about this shelter

Dogwood Animal Shelter is a non-profit, no-kill shelter.

Since its infancy, compassionate, like-minded volunteers have been the driving force behind Dogwood Animal Shelter. Through auctions and sales, a handful of dedicated people raised enough money to build its first, albeit small facility and was established as a 501(c) 3 in 1976. It was filled beyond capacity almost immediately.

The shelter is funded entirely from donations and proceeds from their Dogwood Animal Shelter Thrift Store.

After years of saving, planning and busting at the seams with fur-babies, in 2005 it was time to build a new facility with their own in-house clinic! Under the direction of Dr. John Reinhold and coupled with a very dedicated and gifted team of Veterinarians and staff, Dogwood Animal Shelter continues to offer low cost spays and neuters to the public as well as services to their shelter buddies; services to approximately 2,000 dogs and cats yearly!

Dogwood Animal Shelter began their journey of being a successful no-kill shelter in 1997, and since then has saved over 40,000 lives!
