Story
Della is a 9 month old female Whippet mix, who is sure to steal your heart from her first bright smile at you! She is super sweet, and loves toys plus cuddles on the couch. Della enjoys running, so a fenced-in yard would be ideal; or she would also do well with an active owner who takes her on long walks and hikes. Della gets along well with other dogs, as well as with cats. She has been living in a foster home while recovering from eye surgery, where her left eye had to be removed. But her resilience is inspiring, and the surgery (plus even the dreaded cone) has not bothered her at all! Della has learned a lot from her fosters, so she is crate trained and has learned leash manners. Overall, they have found her to be very well-behaved indoors. Della has also proven herself to be quiet in her foster home, so could be a good apartment doggie, as well! Just give this sweet girl a loving home, and she will reward you with joy and adoration for the rest of her life! The adoption fee covers the following: spay or neuter surgery; one-year rabies vaccine; feline or canine distemper vaccine; heartworm test (dogs) or combo (fiv/felv) test (cats); deworming; and microchip. Carroll County Animal Shelter is located at 251 Automation Drive in Carrollton GA. Phone: 770-214-3590. The hours of operation are: Monday through Wednesday 12:30 pm till 4:30 pm; Thursday 12:30 pm till 6:00 pm; Friday 12:30 pm till 4:30 pm; Saturday 9:00 am till 4:00 pm. The Carroll County Animal Shelter will be closed the last Friday of every month for deep cleaning, staff training, and animal enrichment.December 20, 2024, 2:07 pm

Story
❗Current location: in a foster home in South Korea❗ • Rescue Story: He was rescued from a high-kill shelter along with his brother in Jan 2023. While his lucky brother found his forever home soon after and has been happily living with his family, Saerom was relinquished twice by his first and second families unfortunately. His former families misunderstood his teething as biting and did not like his appearance. He may have been hurt by them, but is growing as a bright pup in his current foster for the past 10 months and has learned socialization to be ready to find his true forever family. We hope he won't get hurt by humans ever again! • 3 keywords: attached to his owner/ active/ smart • Affinity with - Dogs: Generally good around other dogs! He's been behaving at a dog swimming pool or a dog cafe. - Cats: He lived with a kitten once in the current foster home, and he ended up being sweet and taking care of it :) - Kids: When he was a puppy, he lived with two kids (one elementary schooler, one kindergartener) in his previous foster home and liked playing with them. • Housetrained: uses indoor pee-pads placed in a restroom! • Barks/Howls: Only barks at the doorbell sound. • Walking Manners: He tends to pull a little out of excitement at the beginning of a walk but paces with his walker later on. • Energy Level: mid-high since he is still young! • Appetite: He eats anything well! • Car Rides: He has felt slight car sickness for a long time over 20 minutes. (fine with subway) • Bathing/Teeth Brushing: Good with water itself, but not a fan of a dryer. / Likes doggy toothpaste! No problem with teeth brushing every night! • Likes: plush toys and dog chews! • Commands/Tricks: sit, paw, stay, eat (pound twice on the floor), down, and 'V' • Shedding: 2 during non-shedding seasons and 8 during shedding seasons

Story
** Current Location: at a private shelter in South Korea ** • Rescue Story : Meet Beckma👋 a friendly lovable boy! Beckma was found on a street in South Korea at just 2 months old in Nov 2021 and taken to a high-risk city shelter along with his brother. Fortunately rescued right before euthanasia by the rescue team, the two brothers started living with numerous dogs in a private shelter. Sadly, both brothers haven’t had a single opportunity to live in a foster home until now, but Beckma’s sweetness shines through in the shelter. Beckma is ready to meet his loving family and start a new chapter of his life. Could that be with you? • Personality : Affectionate, Energetic, Playful Beckma is such a sweet and lovable boy! He will surely smother you with all the love and kisses that he has!

His playful antics and sweet personality will bring a smile to your face and fill your home with laughter! Although he is generally good with other dogs, he would best thrive in a home as an only child since he sometimes gets in fights with them. • Affinity with: -Cats: Not tested -Dogs: Generally good with other dogs, but he is not good with aggressive dogs. -Adults/Kids: Good with adults including men / not tested for kids • Shedding : 5-7 • Food Allergies : No food allergies. He doesn’t overeat. • Walking Manner : In training, but he has a reliable recall. • Housetrained : As a clean pup, he knows how to use pee-pads indoors although he lives in a shelter. • Bath/Brushing : Tolerates baths well / Brushing is unnecessary due to short coat. • Separation Anxiety : None. • Bark or Howl : Barks a little towards the dogs he doesn’t like or strangers, but becomes friendly easily with new faces. • Carsickness : in training! • Likes & Dislikes : He loves toys, treats, and people! / Not a fan of aggressive dogs.
