Story
Cash lives for the short, sweet breaks from shelter life - riding in the backseat of the car, going through the DQ drive-thru for a cup of whipped cream, sitting on a bench in a park together, feeling the sun and the breeze on your faces. Those trips, and the one-on-one time he gets with his favorite humans on our team, are the thread of happiness in Cash's life that keep him going. But, we know it's hard for him to see us say good night and head home at the end of the day, while his "home is the shelter. At 6, Cash Money has been at PAWS for most of his life, FIVE YEARS, except for a brief one-month break in an adoptive home. Cash is one of our longtime front office dogs, and he's also a bit of a self-appointment supervisor, giving us feedback on when we're talking too loudly or coming up short on our treat-feeding duties. He is a little man with a brash, sometimes rough exterior. But, inside, Cash is just a little boy dying to be loved. He has friends, but he wants his own people, his own home. The real deal. The kind of love and acceptance we all crave. Laura, our shelter manager, is Cash's buddy. She writes, "Cash is smart and treat motivated. He's my guardian and he takes his job too seriously, but he will let me do most anything with him because we've established a lot of mutual trust, respect and love. He is such a cuddle bug and is actually so very affectionate. He loves plush toys and is a master of interactive toys and doggie IQ tests. If he is not getting enough attention, he will let you know, trust us. Cash needs an adult home because little ones give him the heebie-jeebies, and he's a bit of a resource guarder, mostly with food. We're working on that. He has some dog friends but can be selective and prefers a low key, quieter canine friend who allows him to do the talking.

Story
Dollar was purchased from a Jack Russell farm. He’s an amazing dog. He’s not aggressive, house trained, protective of kids, and he’s will not just jump up on you if you tell him no. I was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer and can no longer care for Dollar. I’m now allergic to the pet dander, not able to groom or care for him in anyway at all. Which really is very sad and not fair to Dollar. Dollar needs to go to a family that will take care of him and love him. He loves doing zoomies. He loves to be loved on. Please save Dollar. I can no longer give him his needs at all.

Story
Howdy, everyone! Dolly here. I’m an outgoing girl who is good with most dogs and people. I was just spayed Oct. 8, and am now UTD on my shots, microchipped, and ready to roll after recovery. I am a sweet girl about 2 years old and am the “beige version” of my already-adopted sister, Penny (now Cookie). I am learning to walk on a leash and am really getting the hang of it. Before, I would just lie there like a brick and stare at you. Now I know it means we’re going on adventures! Woohoo! As with all of the rescues here, I will require a secure, above-ground fenced yard to keep me safe. https://www.jackrusselladoptions.org/adopt-a-dog/

Story
Hi, everyone. I’m Katie and I’m a special girl! I am beautiful and happy to be with my favorite people but very independent as far as most human society is concerned. I have come a long way since I arrived here at rescue in 2023. I came from the same backyard breeder as Angel and her puppies (Grace and Blackberry), but luckily I escaped the terrible genetic defect that shortened little Blackberry’s life. I will probably never be a true cuddle pup, but I’m good with other dogs, I love my porch life and my Dogloo and I definitely enjoy Benebones to the fullest! I’m not a fan of leash walking — and yes, they are working on that with me, but so far I’m “winning.” As you know, there’s stubbornness and then there’s JRT stubborn. 😉 When you look in my eyes, you see that I was not given the life I should have had and now that it is available, I sometimes don’t quite believe in it. I’m about 3 years, old, UTD on my shots, microchipped, and, most importantly, spayed! I will make a great quiet companion … well, unless the delivery truck arrives! I would do best in a house without small children as I have never been around them and they might make me uncomfortable. As with all of the rescues here, I will need a secure, above-ground fence to keep me safe. https://www.jackrusselladoptions.org/adopt-a-dog/

Story
Peanut Butter and his Mom Jelly were pulled from Clayton County Animal Control after they both landed on the euthanisa list.  He is a bundle of sweet energy and is very loving and loves to be held.  He's a cuddle bug and loves to sing like a Husky likes to do.  Both he and his Mom had Demodex Mange while in the shelter which isn't contagious but takes a little while to clear up.  They are both on Credelio which is a flea/tick med that also helps with this condition.  This is available at most veterinarian offices. We believe his Mom is a Blue Heeler Siberian Husky mix. ##2251440##
