Rusty (formerly Toby) wrote us a sweet update!

Thank you & your staff for taking such good care of me & all of the animals you love so well. I have found my forever home in Birmingham & am loving my sister & Mom. Ella is a 12 yo Puggle rescue who at first tolerated me but is now warming up to my energetic personality 😉

Upon arrival, I tested out all of the seats & found out I have access to any I want! My Mom thought this was funny & sent this pic to A New Leash on Life to tell them I was "Home". I've a crate if needed, several doggy bed, boys next door who come to play, lots of toys Ella doesn't play with & treats 🩷.

Again, thank you for being so nice to me. Have a blessed week. I'm going to meet my new Vet this afternoon so have to get ready.
Much love, Rusty 🐾🩷🐾

Are you looking for a playful, affectionate dog that is past the destructive puppy stage? Meet Mila!

Mila is a 5 year old pittie mix that is looking for a loving home. She was surrendered to our shelter by her previous owners of 5 years due to them moving. Her previous owners allowed us to know that she’s house trained, and good with kids.

We have cat & dog tested her in the shelter and she was very excited to meet our office kitty Momo, and has played great with the dogs she’s met here at the shelter. She is extremely loving, and often gets the zoomies when meeting someone new. If you are looking for a new best friend that will love you unconditionally look no further than Mila! 🥰

Apply for Mila here: alanimalservices.com or come meet her during business hours!

It's hard to believe that Dipper has been in our care since November without receiving a single application or expression of interest. This affectionate boy has been waiting patiently for his forever family to come along and give him the love and attention he so rightfully deserves.

Dipper is a true sweetheart, always eager to show off his skills and commands. He'll sit for treats, toys, and even just for praise! His loving nature makes him a joy to be around, and his good behavior has earned him a spot in a loving foster home.

In his foster home, Dipper has proven to be a well mannered boy. He's housebroken, past the destructive puppy stage, and gets along wonderfully with both dogs and cats. His foster family has fallen in love with his gentle and playful personality, and we know that your family will too!

If interested in adopting Dipper please fill out the application on our website: alanimalservices.com to schedule a meet & greet! ❤️

We are overjoyed to share that Verde, now lovingly renamed Boudica (meaning 'victory'), has found her forever home with her foster mom! Boudica's journey to happiness was not an easy one. Abandoned at our shelter one night, she was severely malnourished, heartworm positive, and struggled to trust new faces. But thanks to the love and care of her foster mom, Boudica has made an incredible transformation. In foster care, she gained a whopping 30 pounds and blossomed into a confident, loving companion. We couldn't be happier for Boudica and her forever mom. Congratulations on finding your perfect match!🩷

🌟 Update on Gwen 🌟

We are beyond excited to share the wonderful news that Gwen has found her forever home! 💕 After being returned to us by her previous adopters, Gwen was visibly sad to be back. And now, just one day after coming back to us, she has been adopted into a home where she will be cherished forever.

Thank you to everyone who supported her journey, and to her new family for opening their hearts to this sweet girl! We have no doubt she’s going to bring so much joy and love to her new family.

We will miss you sweet girl but we hope to never see you again!😂 Please join us in wishing Gwen the best of luck as she starts this beautiful new chapter in her life! 🐾

Nala is a 4 year old, medium-large mixed breed girl that would love to join you on your adventures!

Today, our hearts sank as we welcomed back a familiar face... our sweet Gwen has been returned to us after being adopted just months ago.

This little one was only 14 weeks old when she first left our shelter, full of hope and promise. Now, at just 7 months old, she's back with us, her spirit dimmed by the disappointment of being returned.

We can't help but wonder what went wrong and why this loving pup wasn't given the forever home she deserved. But what we do know is that Gwen is still the same loving, playful, and snuggly girl she's always been.

She deserves a second chance at happiness, and we're determined to find her the perfect forever home. Will you help us share her story and find her a loving family? Swipe through to see photos of Gwen during her first stay with us 💔

Meet Georgia, a sweet 2-year-old former momma dog who’s ready to find her forever home and receive the love she’s spent her life giving to others. After caring for her pups, it’s now Georgia’s turn to experience the joy of being cared for.

She’s wonderfully gentle with both cats and dogs, including high-energy pups, thanks to her nurturing nature. Georgia’s calm and loving demeanor makes her the perfect companion for any family.

Unfortunately dogs like Georgia, those who’ve spent their lives caring for others, often get overlooked in shelters in favor of younger puppies. Don’t miss the chance to give this incredible dog the loving home she deserves.

If you're interested in meeting this sweet girl please fill out the application on our website: alanimalservices.com or stop by during business hours! 💗
