My story

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

Breed: Terrier mix is our best guess!
Gender: Female
Estimated Date of Birth: 2/12/2022
Size: 29 pounds
Location: Wedowee, AL

RESCUING ALLIE...
Allie was dumped out of a pick-up truck when she was pregnant in a rural area of Alabama. A lady saw it happen on her house camera and she put Allie in her barn and on that freezing cold night in December 2023 Allie gave birth to 5 puppies. Once the puppies got bigger the lady reached out to RRDR and we took Allie and her 5 puppies into our rescue in February 2024. Two of the puppies didn't survive and the other 3 we adopted into wonderful homes. Allie was not in the best shape and was very thin and scared but we knew she deserved a chance!

ABOUT ALLIE...
Allie is living in our rescue cottage amongst other dogs and is very well behaved. She is timid around new people and will take a bit to warm up to a new family but don't let that shy you away from this gem. She is absolutely hysterical, energetic, loves to play, will fetch a ball and bring it back to you and will also meticulously bury her favorite Egg & Cheese stuffy (hahaha!) in various places to hide it. She walks well on a leash and has a fenced in backyard currently. She really enjoys getting out and running in the yard. If you are a hiker, she would make a great pal! She does great with her scheduled routine and is crate trained and housebroken. She is not destructive and snuggling in her crate on her plush dog bed is one of her favorite things. This pint sized beauty will steal your heart! She would do best with a patient family and older kids that can give her the time to decompress and come around. She does well with other dogs and would do great with a male confident playful friendly dog that can help her feel comfortable.

ADOPTING ALLIE...
Allie is spayed, current on all vaccines, dewormed, heartworm tested negative, microchipped and on monthly heartworm and flea/tick preventative. Her adoption fee is $200.00. If you are interested in learning more about Allie and potentially adopting her please complete an adoption application at https://www.rescueridgealabama.org/general-4. If you have any questions please email us at rescueridgeal@gmail.com.

FOSTERING ALLIE...
Allie would love to get the opportunity to live with a family that can foster her until her forever family is found. If you are interested in fostering Allie please complete a Foster Application at https://www.rescueridgealabama.org/ways-to-help. If you have any questions please email us at rescueridgeal@gmail.com.

More about this rescue

At Rescue Ridge Dog Rescue of Alabama, our mission is to transform the lives of abandoned, neglected, and abused dogs in rural East Alabama and West Georgia. We provide essential veterinary care, safe and nurturing housing, training and daily physical and mental enrichment. Through human and animal socialization, we prepare dogs for adoption into loving, permanent homes. Our goal is to provide a personalized adoption experience to ensure every dog finds their perfect match, preventing them from becoming a failed rescue statistic. We also support our community by funding spay/neuter services, educating on responsible dog ownership while serving as a vital resource to our area which lacks a county and city animal shelter.

Our Founder Michelle Wagner
Michelle has been a huge animal lover since she was a child. She grew up in Dallas Georgia , Paulding County.
Michelle spent many years working in rescue as a kennel manager and is very savvy with bully breeds. She moved to rural Randolph County in East Alabama to be closer to family, While living here Michelle started to realize the huge dog overpopulation and abandonment problem that plagued the county along with the lack of resources such as animal control facilities and low-cost vet and spay neuter services. Michelle decided to start her own all-volunteer small dog rescue to do her part with helping the dogs in this county. There is no city or county animal control here so they are left helpless on the streets. Michelle started this rescue and became a 501(c)3 on May 28, 2024. Michelle does a wonderful job caring for her dogs and spends lots of time socializing and training them.
Michelle is always looking for committed loving homes so if you are interested in adopting please reach out! Rescue Ridge runs on personal donations which are tax deductible. Michelle is excited to work with the community to spread awareness and lessen the number of dogs in need!
