Story
Meet Vienna, a lively Basenji and Feist mix puppy with a heart full of joy. This sweet, friendly, and playful little girl is always ready to play or go for walks! She wears a medium coat of brown and white, and, at just 9 months old and weighing 26 pounds, Vienna is full of energy, but she also loves her downtime, often seeking out a friendly lap for a cuddle. Her goofy nature is sure to bring laughter and light into any home! But don't let her playful demeanor fool you, Vienna is also very smart and eager to learn new tricks. Adopting Vienna means welcoming a bundle of love and happiness into your life. She's not just a pet, she's a companion who will offer unconditional love and loyalty. Give Vienna a chance, and she will fill your home with joy, laughter, and endless puppy kisses! (ME, 1/6/25) Adoption Fee: $395.00-- covers microchip, worming, all vaccines, monthly heart worm preventative, monthly tick/flea preventative, spaying/neutering, health certificate, and complete medical records. Transport Fee: $160.00-- We consider the transport to be of great importance and, as such, take particular care of the dogs during the trip. We make every effort to arrive with healthy and minimally stressed dogs. **It is rare that we know with certainty the ages or mixes that make up our dogs, but we do our best to be as accurate as possible based upon our experience. **April 8, 2025, 1:12 pm

Story
Hello there, I'm Furgus, your potential partner in crime! I have a knack for exploration and once, I mistook the neighbor's vegetable garden for a treasure trove. Oh, the ruckus! I ended up at the shelter after that, but it was a hilarious journey. I'm a pro at finding hidden goodies, be it under the sofa or in the park. My curiosity is my charm, and I promise to keep you entertained with my antics. If you're looking for a fun-loving, adventurous companion, look no further. Adopt me and let's start our adventure together!

Story
So apparently we are Georgia peaches :) I mean, we r named after Georgia cities :0 And of course, Georgia is known for their peaches and their starry skies... and we agree that we are just like them! Our story starts much like so so many others in the south.... we were dumped at about 8 weeks old in a median and boy were we scared!! Luckily the lady who found and saved us was going to the exact location daily to feed/water and try to catch two adult dogs who had been hanging out there for almost a year :( SO, she was very very persistent and got the rescue to take us and we were caught and brought straight to the rescue... and we have been here ever since. Our foster mom has been working hard to get us more comfortable with people and being held and loved and we have made LOTS of progress!! We each have our own personality, much like the cities we are named after...... Savannah is a gorgeous blonde peach, she has a shyness to her but once she knows who you are her sweet ways will win you over :) Wrens is sister number two, she is a tall glass of sweet tea, dark tea colored with a playful and silly demeanor. She wants to be loved and is learning to express that more every day... and FINALLY Tybee is the little brother, he looks pretty different than his sisters so we call him the brother from another mister :) Ty Ty is a really really sweet lowrider who loves to be kind of naughty at times (he drags his foster mom's shoes in the yard all the time!!) Any one of these pups would be fantastic, each one will be best with another dog in the house- a calm and confident dog to play with them and to help them acclimate to their new homes :) Don't wait too long, these three are really really Southern pups who will charm their way into somebody's hearts ;) Hopefully yours! Local adoption fee is $250 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $550 (includes transport to your area)

Story
Hi, I’m Chai. I was minding my own business running around the neighborhood until I came across this one house that had all the good treats. Suddenly this lady said something about rescuing me because there was a freeze coming and I didn’t trust her at first, I was so scared. I decided to play hard to get, it took her like 5 days to gain my trust. Finally I decided it was time to see what she had to offer. Now I’m having the time of my life. I have fur brothers and sisters that keep me company, I even have a human sister that’s just a baby. I’m so gentle with her and my foster mom says I’m a natural around infants. I spend my days sleeping on the couch and doing zoomies in the backyard. I’m working on my confidence right now and I’m a little shy but I promise I warm up fast. I’m scared of unfamiliar things but my foster parents are going to keep working with me. I’m fully potty trained, crate trained, and have good manners. Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $450 (includes transport to your area)

Story
Jax is rescue that we adopted as a 6wk old puppy. He is now almost 7 and is an amazing, loving dog that we are very reluctant to give up. However, we recently welcomed our 1st child to the family and we unfortunately no longer have the time available to give him the amount of attention he deserves. Jax will thrive in a home that has a fenced backyard to play in or with an owner that enjoys long walks. He would be great for a family with grown children that can run around with him. There have been no problems with him and our child, so he would do well with small children as well, but would likely enjoy the company and energy of bigger kids that can play with him. Regardless of your situation, Jax will make an excellent companion for whom ever adopts him! He really just needs someone that will love him and give him all the belly rubs!
