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
Meet Mary Ann and Ginger, an adorable bonded pair of medium-sized rescue dogs who are searching for their forever home. These super cute girls have spent their entire lives on their own until they were recently rescued. Despite their rough beginnings, Mary Ann and Ginger are incredibly sweet and are now learning to enjoy the comforts of a loving home. Both Mary Ann and Ginger get along wonderfully with other dogs, though they haven't had the chance to meet any cats yet. They need a patient adopter who will give them the time and space they need to adjust to their new surroundings and discover the joys of being cherished pets. Ginger, who bravely underwent heartworm treatment, is now healthy and heartworm negative. Both dogs are fully vetted, spayed, microchipped, and on preventatives. They even tolerate baths and absolutely love being petted. Currently, Mary Ann and Ginger are being fostered in Seguin, TX, where they are receiving the care and love they deserve. If you have a kind heart and a gentle hand, these two sweethearts will surely reward you with endless affection and loyalty. Adopt Mary Ann and Ginger and give them the loving home they've always dreamed of.
