Story
Indie is a rescue that I took in intending to make her my forever dog. Unfortunately now, Im having some major life changes and would like to see her in a more appropriate home. Approximately a year old, mixed breed (pending Embark dna and genetic test.) Good with kids, dogs, and cats. Has liked everyone met. Shes been spayed, utd on shots, heartworm and flea meds. (Heartworm negative shen I got her.) I have vet records at Satilla Animal Hospital. Shes microchipped. Knows following commands: sit, wait, come, waits for food until given okay; command. Kennel trained. Walks on a leash. Working on heeling off leash. Food motivated. Smart and easy to train. Knows Pee Pee and Potty command. I live with just my cat and she would be so much happier with another dog or a big family. We just ended up not being a good fit and it’s been incredibly difficult to decide to reach out and see if there might be a better option out there. SHE CAN ALWAYS COME BACK TO ME.

Story
Born 11/10/19. Pretty sure he was a runt. He is friendly, but shy around men. He has been around horses but has not been with cattle. He has been around cats but because it has been so long I wouldn't trust him around cats. He does not like small children. He will not hurt them, he just doesn't like them in his space because they make him anxious. Loves fetch an to loves to chase a golf cart or atv Typically blue heeler personality: a lot of energy, loves to be outside, loves to run, needs something to do. Shot are not utd due to me nit having time during move We moved from North Dakota back to Georgia. We are living with my parents and it iss causing issues with me having both of my dogs there. I've been having to kennel them and I don't think that iss fair to them.

Story
In 2020, him and his sister was abandoned with me by my ex. He had an aggressive past, but has did a 180 I'm unsure of everything he is mixed with, as his previous owner did not leave me with any information/paperwork for him. But we for sure know he's rott, lab, and some kind of hunting dog (which isnwhere the brindle comes from). Don't know everything else. Unsure of his age but the vet thinks he should be around 8-9 years old now. At one point I had him registered as an emotional support dog. He is amazing with kids. Loves most women. Accepting of some men. He is amazing with puppies, as he has helped me potty train, and keeps my other dog from getting out of hand. With larger dogs he has to be properly introduced. ABSOLUTELY CANNOT be around cats, chickens, or smaller edible animals. He will do well with someone who is somewhat active (he likes to travel), but also loves staying home and allowing him lookout the window and nap. Fenced in yard because he loves chasing squirrels

Story
ASTRO was found at a ballpark. He had been seen there for some time so a policeman brought him to rescue as there is no animal control. This big friendly boy just wanted to play and make friends with everyone. We believe he is 6-7 months old and weighs about 45 pounds. He is needs a child to keep him busy playing. He would also make an excellent jogging or hiking buddy. He would do well with other dogs but probably too much energy for a cat. He is truly gorgeous and affectionate. He LOVES people! Astro is fully vetted and ready for an adventure. If you are interested in Astro please apply online at brantleyanimalrescuecoalition.com.
