Hashtag (our little hbc/post surgical dog) started rehab and is already making progress!!! He had land rehab and laser therapy today. Next Monday they want to get him started on water therapy 🩵

Because Hashtag had so many areas injured (pelvis fractures, back leg fho and front leg amputation), this therapy is crucial to his healing. Please consider donating to help us make this happen for him!

To help Hashtag please use any of the following methods!

Meet Blue!
Blue is a one-year-old Goldendoodle bursting with personality and ready to find his forever home! At 48 pounds, he’s close to his ideal weight of around 55 pounds, and he’s fully vetted, crate trained, and has completed obedience training with our friends at Georgia Canine.

While Blue might be a little shy at first, once he realizes you’re a friend, his playful side shines! He’s a fun-loving, energetic boy who thrives on activity and engagement. Whether it’s romping around the yard, going for a walk, or playing fetch, Blue is always ready for an adventure.

This doodle is great with other playful dogs, but his exuberant energy can be a bit much for pups who prefer a quieter vibe. His ideal home would include a fenced yard where he can burn off energy and an active family who loves to include him in their daily fun. A home with dog-savvy children over the age of 10 would be a perfect match!

If you’re looking for a smart, spirited companion and have the time and energy to match his playful personality, Blue might just be the perfect addition to your family. He’s ready to bring lots of love, laughter, and doodle antics into your life.

Blue can’t wait to meet you—apply today!

Introducing Peppermint, a 3-year-old, 18-pound bundle of love who’s ready to melt your heart! This petite pup came to us from an overcrowded shelter, and she’s now on the hunt for her forever family through Releash Atlanta. 💕

This little sweetheart would thrive in a home where someone is around often, as she loves being part of the action and by your side. Bonus points if you have another dog – Peppermint would love a canine buddy to share her adventures and cozy naps with! 🐕❤️

If you’re ready to add a little sweetness to your life, Peppermint is waiting to meet you! Could she be the missing piece of your family? Apply today through Releash Atlanta and give Peppermint the loving home she deserves. 🏡✨

Rudolph has been Releashed! This sweet puppy has found his perfect forever family, and we couldn’t be happier for him. Rudolph’s new home comes with everything he could have hoped for: love, care, and plenty of time to play and learn.

From his very first day in foster care, Rudolph charmed everyone with his playful energy and love for other dogs. He was always up for a romp in the yard or cuddles on the couch. Now, he’ll have the opportunity to grow and thrive in a home that will give him the attention and companionship he deserves. We can’t wait to see all the joy you bring to your new family.

Moe has been RELEASHED!!! Now this sweet boy has the most amazing family to love and adore him! We’re so happy for you Moe!!

Meet Buttons! This sweet 9-pound, 1 year old, Maltese/Yorkie mix has been through a lot in his short life, but he’s ready to start a new chapter in a loving forever home. Buttons came to us in rough shape—his fur was so matted and filthy that he had to be completely shaved. Now, he’s feeling fresh and fabulous, and his playful, snuggly personality is shining through! (He doesn't look like it now but he'll need regular grooming)

Buttons is all about having fun. He loves playing with other dogs, chasing balls, and engaging in a lively game of tug-of-war. When playtime is over, Buttons transforms into the ultimate cuddle buddy. He adores being held and snuggled, soaking up all the love and attention you have to give. Buttons would love another dog or two in his forever home but it's not required.

Because of his small size, Buttons needs a home without kids under five. He’s also not suited for apartment living.

This little guy is ready for a loving home where he can be adored and cherished. If you’re ready to welcome Buttons into your life, apply for him today!

Meet Winnie ✨

Winnie is an 8-pound bundle of joy and boundless energy! This 4- to 5-month-old mixed-breed puppy has overcome a leg injury with resilience and determination, and now she’s thriving—stronger and more playful than ever.

Winnie adores the great outdoors and is always up for walks, playtime, or exploring new adventures. She’s happiest when she’s running around the yard, chasing her favorite toys, or going on walks to see the world around her. After an active day, this playful pup loves nothing more than to curl up on the couch for some well-deserved snuggles.

Winnie is fantastic with other dogs and enjoys making new friends, but she’s also independent enough to entertain herself when needed. Her curious and eager-to-learn personality makes her a delight to train, and with a bit of guidance, she’s sure to grow into the incredible companion she’s meant to be.

She’s the perfect match for an active family who loves outdoor adventures and has the time to nurture her playful, energetic spirit. Whether she’s your one-and-only or joins a home with other dogs, Winnie promises to fill your life with joy, laughter, and unconditional love.

Ready to meet your new best friend? Winnie can’t wait to find her forever family!

ATTENTION!!!

The hackers are after our donations 😞 The donations that pay for lifesaving procedures and preventative care. The donations that pay for literally EVERY dog we rescue. Without these donations, we CANNOT do what we do.

This time they’re targeting our Venmo. And not just ours, but several other rescues too. It’s so disheartening 💔 If you go to donate through Venmo, please pay special attention to which account you pick. The hackers are tricky and add very discreet text to the end so that it pops up and people click the first one they see. They’ve even stolen our pictures 😞 While our actual account is first in this picture, it may not be on your app. Our Venmo will always be JUST , with the confirmation number being 9336.

If you’d like to go the extra mile, help us by reporting the fake accounts! The more reports, the more likely it is that they’ll be removed.

To all who support us, THANK YOU!! We’re a small group of people who do BIG things with your help!!

Could you even imagine what these dogs lives have been like? They are chained inside their own bodies, their fur is their prison. They can’t escape it, they can’t pretend it’s not happening, this is their life, 24/7. They’ve never even heard the sound of silence or had a comfortable nights sleep. They’ve been forced to live in conditions less than squalor, to be bred and bring babies into this world… into THAT world. They’ve never been shown love or affection, they haven’t been “pets”. They’ve been discarded like trash left to multiply until their numbers reached the HUNDREDS and finally it became “too much”… THAT is when it became “too much”??? Lord help us…

Yesterday a team member rushed to one of the shelters to see how many we could help. It was an immediate decision that we were taking the pregnant mom who was actively in labor. It was also apparent we were going to take as many more as we possibly could.

We met countless, SWEET little dogs with such hope in those eyes that were hidden behind years of neglect. To touch them was to know you were going to need three showers later, but how could you not show love to these little babies so desperate to receive it.

We left with six yesterday and are going back today for the rest. We believe this will cost us many, many thousands to vet and treat these dogs for whatever they may need.

To be totally honest - we have no business taking more dogs right now since our credit card bill was DOUBLE the highest it’s ever been last month. It shook us. But what happens if we don’t help? We assume others will, and sure, some do. But then there are those left sitting in their own filth, with their mats pulling and ripping at their skin until help finally comes along.

If you know Releash - our motto is and always has been “we will figure it out” and thanks to YOU, we have always been able to.

The only one so far that has a name is little Birdie who went home with her foster mom last night. Birdie had mats so thick and so stuck to her skin it had to be sheared off in one piece like a sheep - and it wasn’t easy!

All of these dogs will face similar “grooming” days in their near future where we can cut their past away and promise them that they will NEVER, EVER live another day like that ever again.

Our crew is desperate for donations. This will be more than 10k and we really don’t have that to spend, so please, please consider making a donation to help us help them!

Truer words have never been spoken. We love what this post is saying and hope you’ll take a minute to read, think on it, and share ❤️

Too often, people fall in love with the idea of a dog rather than seeing the dog for who they truly are—an individual with a unique personality, quirks, and emotions. Instead of embracing their differences, they’re labeled: ‘too anxious,’ ‘needs special training,’ or ‘not the right fit.’

But what if we shifted our perspective? What if, instead of seeing ‘anxiety,’ we saw insecurity that needs patience? Instead of labeling reactivity as a flaw, we recognized that some dogs, just like us, are introverts who don’t need to befriend every stranger or greet every excitable dog they see.

We wouldn’t want to be put into a box based on one part of who we are—so why do we do that to the dogs we say we love so much? Dogs aren’t categories or stereotypes—they’re individuals, deserving of understanding, acceptance, and unconditional love. Let’s honor who they are instead of who we thought they’d be.

I am Adele and ready to start the hunt for my future family. Allow me to properly introduce myself.

I am a short and sturdy 5 year old Frenchie who has spent my entire life being the most perfect momma dog to litter after litter of little French bulldogs. All of that changed once I became a Releash pup. Now I live in a home with humans and other adult dogs and no puppies!!! I have the freedom to just be me and it is glorious.

I know your time is valuable so let me give you a quick run down…

1. If you are a busy body and looking for a companion to run, bike, rollerblade, ski, or do any activity that raises your heart rate above zone 1, I am not your girl. However, I will take a stroll with you and sniff the flowers along the way.

2. I like other dogs. I like watching them, sniffing them and following them around. I’m still learning about the concept of ‘play’ though and am more of an observer.

3. I’m also getting use to the idea of humans wanting to pet me all the time. It’s nice, just a little different from what I’m use to so don’t get your feelings hurt if it takes me a minute to warm up to you.

4. Now, lean in because this is important. I am looking for someone who is very familiar with dogs that are described as brachycephalic. Big fancy word to describe dogs that are short nosed or flat faced. We tend to need extra TLC and experience is a must for my future person/family. That’s it. If you’ve got extra time, lots of love and an overwhelming desire for a snoring buddy, I could very well be your new best friend.

She’s curious and eager to learn, so with a little guidance, she’ll continue to shine as the amazing pup she is.

Winnie would be a great match for an active family who loves spending time outside and can keep up with her playful spirit. Whether she’s the only pup or joins a home with other dogs, she’ll bring endless joy to her new family. If you’re ready to give this sweet and energetic girl the loving home she deserves, Winnie can’t wait to meet you!

Moe is looking for his forever family - Moe is a 5-6 month old doodley dude weighing around 26 pounds. Moe is a gentle, loving, sweet, playful, goofy, clumsy, funny boy.

Moe would like a home with a fenced yard but it’s not a must as long as you take him for daily walks.

Moe is doing well with potty training but will need someone home to let him out on a regular basis.

Moe would like a home with another friendly playful dog.

Moe will require regular grooming about every 8 weeks.

Moe is an easy going dog that will cuddle with you during nap time and chill in his bed while you’re working. He has a very laid back but still playful personality.
