My story

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

Mae and Myla are extremely smart and playful puppies!  They're your typical puppies who want to play, sleep, and play some more   



When the owner of this litter of Australian shepherd puppies found themselves unable to continue providing the necessary care and attention these babies required, they made the responsible decision to reach out for help. Unfortunately,  they ended up placing 5 of the 7 puppies with new owners without properly vetting them or ensuring the puppies were receiving the proper medical treatment they desperately needed. Thankfully, the remaining two puppies and their mother were entrusted to Hootie’s Haven, where we were able to immediately address the severe health issues they were facing. These poor pups were in rough shape, infested with worms and other parasites that had gone untreated for far too long, leaving them malnourished, lethargic, and at serious risk. It was heartbreaking to see them huddled together in a flimsy cardboard box, struggling to stay warm in the bitter cold. Now that these two precious Australian shepherd pups are finally on the mend and their mama is feeling stronger, it's time to begin the search for their forever homes - homes that will provide them with the love, stability, and attentive care they deserve after such a difficult start to life. We are hopeful that the other 5 puppies have also found loving families, but we remain concerned about their wellbeing and wish we could have intervened sooner to ensure all 7 of these beautiful animals received the proper vetting and responsible rehoming process they were entitled to.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

An Adoption Application is completed which includes current pets and veterinarians. Veterinarians are contacted to verify that current pets are up-to-date on vaccinations and heart prevention. A visit to the property to confirm fencing is made or a search on Google Earth is conducted to confirm the fencing. Any current pets in the home are introduced to the potentially adopted pet to insure they all are behaviorally compatible.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

We hold adoption events at our closest Petsmart location, as well as meet and greets by appointment. We also participate in festivals, parades, and other public events to bring awareness to the public about our available pets, and the importance of spaying and neutering.

More about this rescue

We are a licensed 501c3 animal rescue in NW Georgia. We serve our communities by accepting owner surrenders from owners who for whatever reason, are no longer able to care for their pets. We also assist our communities by taking in dogs from animal control facilities who might otherwise be euthanized. All pets coming into our rescue are vaccinated, spayed/neutered, microchipped, and heartworm tested. If needed we also provide heartworm treatment and recovery time.
