We are a licensed, non profit rescue group focused on saving dogs from high risk situations 🐾❤️‍🩹

We are a 501c3 non profit, volunteer run dog rescue organization that strives to save the dogs that need us the most. We save all breeds, all ages, with all medical ailments or injuries. We have seniors to neonatal puppies, pit bulls to poodles, energetic to chill, and everything in between! We are 100% foster home based so our dogs live in homes just as they will when they are adopted! We do this

so we can really learn and understand the needs of our foster dogs in order to find the best suited forever home for them! We work to match our dogs with the perfect homes, because we want our dogs and their new families to be as happy as possible! We do this all in a positive, happy manner and try our best to refrain from the sad eyes begging behind bars - there is too much of that out there already. Join us on our mission and adventures as we work day in and day out to save the dogs that need us the most!

Today we, along with our vet team, made the hardest decision to let sweet Strawberry Shortcake go.

We knew when we saved her that she would have lots of medical needs. We were so excited to get her through that and on to her new life. We gave her a new name and a loving foster home, but we quickly realized that our girl had a very poor quality of life due to cognitive issues. We hoped maybe it was just anxiety or being in a new place, but unfortunately they did not improve. Her foster family worried that she was in pain and unable to understand that she’s finally safe. Add in the numerous procedures she still had ahead of her, and it just didn’t seem humane or kind. When making these decisions, we always do our best to put the dog’s well being before our own feelings. The feel good thing to do would have been to go blindly full force ahead with all of the medical plans and “fix” everything that we could while ignoring what we saw. But we all knew that wasn’t fair. When pulling seniors, especially super seniors like Strawberry Shortcake, this is sometimes the reality.

Strawberry Shortcake experienced so much love in her final days, whether she knew it or not. She had a whole community of people who wanted the very best for her and would have done anything to help her.

To all who donated to her care, thank you ❤️ Because of you we were able to take her in and get her seen by our vet immediately. Do X-rays, bloodwork, ultrasounds and exams to come up with a plan. She was started on medicines to hopefully get her to a point where she could have her surgeries. We are so heartbroken that it didn’t work out the way we planned 😔 But grateful that we had the opportunity to love her and try.

In rescue we have a tradition of sending sky pictures when we lose one of our own. We know her foster family is going through such a hard time right now, and would love to see your sky pictures in honor of their foster girl 🌅

💖 Courtesy post! Please share! 💖

Meet 🌸Sweetpea🌸 (shelter name Deija)!

Sweetpea is a 2-year-old (+/-) pittie mix who is looking for her forever family!

This sweet girl was seemingly dumped at a very busy intersection. Fortunately a “friendly finder” picked her up before she was injured.

💗 Sweetpea is real sweetheart! She loves people and makes friends with everyone she meets. She’s very affectionate and will happily stay by your side all the time. Her likes include playing ball, sunbathing, and cookies. Dislikes: thunderstorms (she waits them out in her crate)

🛋️ Sweetpea loves to play! She chases balls in the back yard and runs with friends. She loves to snuggle up on the couch and she’s an excellent nap buddy. She likes to watch out the window and enjoys going for a walk.

😄 She is crate and potty trained. She knows several commands and is a quick learner.

🐾 With Sweetpea’s help you’ll always know when your Amazon delivery arrives. Her happy greeting when you arrive at home will be a highlight of your day.

🏡 Could Sweetpea be the new family member you’ve been looking for? She is currently in foster so you won’t find her at the shelter. Apply to adopt her to schedule a meeting. She can’t wait to meet you!

Meet Lucas, a sweet little guy who's ready to find his forever home! Lucas is a 9lb, 10-month-old pup with the softest, most velvety fur—like a little bundle of cashmere. Not only is he adorable to look at, but he's also full of love just waiting to be shared.

This gentle soul is timid when meeting new people, but with just a little patience and kindness, you'll watch him blossom right before your eyes. Once he knows he’s safe, he’ll be your little shadow—loyally following you from room to room, always wanting to be by your side. Whether you're working from home, doing chores, or just lounging on the couch, Lucas will be right there, soaking up your love and attention.

He's great on a leash and enjoys going for walks. He also gets along wonderfully with the other dogs in his foster home, so he'd be happy with a furry sibling—but he’d also do well as your one and only, as long as he gets plenty of love and snuggles. Lucas hasn’t been around cats in his foster home, so we’re not sure how he’d react to them.

Lucas is looking for a calm, loving home with someone who understands that shy dogs just need a little time to feel secure. Once he settles in, he’s incredibly affectionate, loyal, and devoted. If you’re looking for a sweet companion who will adore you endlessly, Lucas might just be your perfect match.

🚨 STILL LOOKING FOR HIS FOREVER 🚨
Meet Rocky – our happy-go-lucky, 14-week-old sweetheart who’s been growing up in foster care and wondering when his family will finally find him.

When Rocky first came to us, he was skin and bones—emaciated, weak, and in need of a fresh start. Thanks to his amazing foster family, he’s now thriving, healthy, and full of life at around 20lbs!

🖤 This adorable boy is:
✔️ Crate trained
✔️ Dog and people friendly
✔️ A total smarty-paws (he knows sit, shake, and is working on down)
✔️ Always up for a cuddle, a treat, or an adventure

Rocky has been overlooked again and again, and we honestly can’t understand why. He’s the total package—cute, smart, sweet, and full of potential. His only “flaw”? He hasn’t met you yet. 🥺

Let’s not let Rocky grow up in foster care. He’s ready to be someone’s everything. Could that be you?

📍 www.releashatlanta.com
📩 Apply to adopt Rocky today and let his next chapter begin!

Meet Frank – the happiest boy with the world’s best underbite!

Frank is an 8-month-old, 25-pound playful goofball who’s equal parts silly and sweet. From his adorable underbite (which often leaves his lip stuck in hilarious positions) to his joyful zoomies in the yard, Frank is guaranteed to keep you smiling.

Once upon a time, this little guy was clearly loved—he came into Releash Atlanta housebroken, crate trained, and already knowing basic commands. His DNA test? A fabulous mix of Chihuahua, Pug, Shih Tzu, and Chow—but let’s be honest, Frank is 100% original.

Currently in a foster home with other dogs, Frank thinks everyone is a friend—human or canine. We’d love to see him in a home with another friendly pup who can help continue to reinforce his good manners. He’d also thrive with access to a securely fenced yard where he can play fetch (yes, he actually brings the toy back!), bask in the sun, and just be his goofy self.

Frank enjoys daily walks on leash, rides well in the car, and lives for snuggling up in bed with his people at night. His playful spirit and sweet nature make him a perfect match for a child old enough to understand how to handle a young dog respectfully, looking for their best friend!

If you’re looking for a fun-loving, loyal companion who brings both laughs and love—Frank is your guy!

Lyla is the sweetest puppy you will ever meet and found herself in foster care through no fault of her own. However, she didn’t let that stop her or even slow her down from loving everyone she met as big as she could, and it has paid off. This gorgeous girl now has a permanent home with a mom and dad who are dedicated to loving and spoiling her for the rest of her days.

Sometimes the path takes a few twist and turns but eventually you find yourself exactly where you are meant to be.

Welcome home, Lyla!

Meet Myles – Your New Best Friend!

Myles is a 5-year-old, 15-pound bundle of love who’s all about companionship. Whether it’s riding shotgun in the car, snuggling on the sofa, joining you for a stroll, or lounging nearby while you work—Myles just wants to be close to his people. He thrives on human connection and will be your loyal shadow wherever you go.

Though he adores other dogs and plays well with both males and females his size or larger, Myles would also be perfectly content as your one and only pup. He’s been undergoing treatment for heartworm since coming into rescue, but you’d never know it—he’s full of life and doesn’t let it slow him down!

Myles hasn’t met any cats (that we know of), and he’s not a fan of being crated. What he does love is being part of the action—and he makes an excellent little watchdog. He’ll let you know when a package arrives… or when your teenager is sneaking in (or out) of the house! 😂 For that reason, he won’t do well in a home with shared walls.

If you’re looking for a sweet, loyal, people-loving companion with a big personality in a small package, Myles might just be the perfect fit. Please apply for Myles at www.releashatlanta.com

Tallulah is a good girl 💖 Like, a REALLY good girl! She’s non destructive, house trained, crate trained, loves kids, loves other dogs. She’s a great “medium” size at right around 40lbs. She’s young (about a year old) and loves to play and go on walks and car rides. She is truly a GREAT dog, but we for some reason still haven’t found her perfect forever home ☹️ Can you help Tallulah out by sharing this post? The more people who share and comment, the more people who see her post and the more likely we are to find her people 🙌🏽 🐾 🏡

Tallulah loves other dogs but needs a home without cats, they’re just way too fun to chase for her to resist!
She would prefer a home with a fenced in yard and an active family would be a plus!

Please submit an application to meet this girl. She’s an absolute gem and will make some lucky family so so happy!!!

Today, with the help of an amazing foster and incredible transporter, we were able to save this precious old soul from one of the busiest shelters in Atlanta. She’s soaked in urine stains, has f***s stuck between all of her paw pads, her dew claws are growing into her skin, and she has a large abdominal mass that we’re very worried about. We don’t know how dogs get into this condition, and to be frank, we don’t know what her prognosis is. But we KNEW she didn’t belong in that shelter. We’ll get her cleaned up, comfortable, and come up with a medical plan. Our hope is that the mass is benign and can be removed and she can live out her golden years being loved and adored by someone. We know she’ll need bloodwork, X-rays, depending on her prognosis- spay, dental and mass removal. Those are just the things we know of. Helping sweet seniors like this girl is always expensive, but always so so rewarding. Seniors have so much love to give and are so special ❤️ They know who saved them.

Will you help us give this girl another chance? We couldn’t turn our back on her, and we hope you won’t either.
