Story
Venus is a playful, loving, smart and protective Ole lady. ; ) She was born February 23, 2018 along with her 10 other siblings. I acquired Venus because I am a Stage IV Breast cancer survivor, and I needed a companion while I was going through my treatment. Venus is well tempered, she likes to go outside and smell the flowers, be on 🐾 Paw patrol and right back inside the house. With my treatment I have developed severe allergies to her hair and was advised by my physician to seek rehoming her. Venus loves children, people and all animals. She is a protector, best friend and a jewel to have in my life. We are seeking a very loving, and attentive family setting for her continued development.

Story
*Special Home Needed* Teddy- He is a 7 year old 60lb Bulldog mix. He is as sweet as can be! Crate and potty trained. Loves to go on walks and snuggle at the foot of the bed. He prefers females over men (due to his past) and is a true ladies man. He would be happy to be the only dog getting all of the attention. He does good with other dogs as long as they are not all over him and in his face. He is not cat tested. His ideal home would have only adults/ women in the home. He has been in the rescue over the year and did great in a temp foster home with a single woman.

Story
🐾 Meet Willa – The Perfect Pup Looking for Her Forever Home! 🐾 Willa is a 3 ½-year-old bully mix who is fully vetted, well-trained, and ready to find her perfect match! 💕 She has been in a home since she was a puppy, so she’s already house-trained, well-mannered, and knows the ropes of being the best companion. ✨ What her foster says: 
🐶 Dog-Friendly – Loves other dogs but prefers calmer companions. She tends to walk away from high-energy pups. 
💛 Loves People – A little nervous at first, but once she’s comfortable, she’ll be your best friend! 
🚫 No Hugs, Please! – She gets uncomfortable with face-to-face contact but loves giving kisses. 
🥕 Picky Eater – Prefers to graze throughout the day & loves food toppers like salmon skin, carrots, and veggies! 
🏃‍♀️ Active & Independent – Loves running, walks, and being outside! 
🏡 Miss Independent – Fully potty trained, doesn’t need a crate, and does great alone for long hours. 
🛏 Loyal Bed Buddy – Sleeps in bed with her foster every night, though sometimes gets up to explore before curling back in. 
🚸 Best in a Home Without Young Kids – She can be a little nervous around small children. Willa is the perfect dog—house-trained, well-mannered, and ready to settle into her forever home. She just needs a patient, loving family to let her shine! Could that be you? 💕

Story
Meet our Adoptable dog, Peter Pan! Peter came to us from a kill shelter in Georgia where his family had to move and when the landlord found out how many dogs they had he unfortunately had to be left behind. Peter is our gentle giant in the rescue weighing in at 105 pounds. He is the sweetest gentle soul, he loves rolling around in the grass, getting in the ponds, and going for car rides. He enjoys his walks and just loves someone to sit next to him and be able to relax on the porch, Peter does good with people and kids, his Bestie in the rescue is Wiggles! Peter would be best as an only dog in the home or a slow introduction to a female. Him and Wiggles love each other and do great together as well. They share an area together and enjoy each others company. Peter Pan is up-to-date on vaccines, completely vetted and ready for his forever home!

Story
Meet Chance! Chance is a 1.5-year-old Pitbull mix with a heart as big as his potential. This handsome boy wandered onto someone’s property with a severely injured nose, but despite his rough start, Chance is incredibly sweet and loving. He's been steadily putting on weight and beginning to thrive, but he’s still learning how to be a dog and needs a patient, dedicated person to guide him on this journey. Chance is scheduled for surgery on his nose and will also be neutered this month. He’s looking for a foster or adopter who has the time, compassion, and love to help him heal, grow, and flourish. If you’re ready to give this deserving pup a fresh start, Chance is ready to meet you!

Story
Everyone that sees Luna says she is the happiest pup they have ever seen! Her whole body wags when she sees you! She is 9 months old, has completed obedience training and knows her stuff! She loves to get brushed, is able to be crated up to 8 hours and is never aggressive! Luna lost a hind leg at a very early age but that does not slow her down at all! She is able to hop up in the car and runs with the others as if she has all fours! She comes with a crate, bed, cot, a pin with room to spread out, food bowls, leash, collar w/info tag. I am struggling personally and want to find a good home while she is young. Luna will be a great addition to any home and will do well with children and other pets.
