Dear all,
We will be placing this page on a hiatus for the time being. We will continue to work with our rescue partner Society of Humane Friends of Georgia as we regroup.
This page will remain open and we will monitor the PM’s.
Please continue to support our rescue partner Society of Humane Friends of Georgia and follow them on FB. They have some pretty awesome dogs and cats looking for homes.
Thank you.

Our rescue partner Society of Humane Friends of Georgia has a ginger beauty that has been waiting for a home of her own for over five months now. Laney is a little over a year old and weighs 35 pounds. She is loving, affectionate and extremely playful. Laney is potty trained and crate trained in her foster home. She is doing very well walking on the leash, but will need access to a fenced area to do her business. She knows sit and down, and she takes treats gently. Laney would love a home of her own with active people (older kids would be best) or a playful canine companion. She is energetic, athletic and enjoys being outdoors. She would make an excellent running companion, or agility dog. Laney enjoys the water and loves a bath, playing in the rain, and drinking from the hose. If you think Laney is the girl for you, please apply to adopt her at www.SOHFGA.com.

Eight year old Edda is looking for a dad to love! She says it’s fine if a mom comes as part of the package but she specifically wants a daddy because she LOVES men! Edda is a slightly overweight Maltese/Terrier mix who weighs 14.5 pounds. She’s currently on a diet and twelve pounds would be a more ideal weight for her. Edda is good with other dogs and cats. She is housebroken for the most part and has a friendly, calm demeanor. Edda is great on a leash so she doesn’t require a fenced yard. She is fully vetted and healthy. Edda had a few benign growths removed from her back last week and got her teeth cleaned so she’s in tip-top shape to start her retirement years. See more photos and apply to adopt Edda at www.SOHFGA.com.

Sadie is a 2-year-old, 60 lb Labradoodle who needs a patient, understanding human. This pretty girl joined us after we got a call from one of our partner vets a few weeks ago. Their local county shelter brings dogs to their clinic for spay/neuter surgery prior to adoption and Sadie was one of the dogs they brought in. To be perfectly honest, we were told that the shelter staff were not overly fond of Sadie due to her temperament. She was difficult to handle; growly, snappy and fearful of everyone in the shelter environment. The staff knew Sadie would be almost impossible to find a home for displaying that kind of behavior so they reached out to us for help. A vet staff-person had taken Sadie home for a few nights and discovered that away from scary places like the shelter and veterinarian’s office she is actually a wonderfully loving girl. Sadie takes about a day to warm up to new people but once she accepts you in her circle, she’s as sweet and loyal as can be. She will likely never be a dog who thrives in social settings so she needs a quiet, adult-only home with someone (or a couple) who doesn’t have a lot of visitors to their home. Sadie is a homebody. Although she enjoys car rides, she isn’t a dog who would do well at the park or any other social setting with lots of strangers. Sadie is a doggie-introvert and we believe she would thrive with a human of that same mindset. Sadie gets along fine with other dogs but she would be just as content as your only dog. She is fully housebroken and well-behaved in the house.
If Sadie’s story resonates with you and you have the special home she needs, please apply to adopt her at www.SOHFGA.com.

Hi, I’m Lady Violet and I’m looking for my forever home. I was abandoned by my owners when I was pregnant. I landed at a crowded shelter in north Georgia and soon after gave birth to six puppies. When my sweet babies were about a week old, a wonderful foster mom came and rescued us. She took us to her house and that’s where I’m waiting until my new humans adopt me.
I am about two years old and I weigh 58 lbs. We think I am a Hound/Lab mix. I am highly intelligent and receptive to training. My foster mom has taught me some basic obedience skills which I love to show off for a tasty treat! I am active and athletic but not overly hyper. I would love to be your walking partner as well as your snuggle buddy on the sofa. I get along beautifully with other dogs and kids and I would probably do fine with cats, too. I am a fun, good-natured girl and I’m ready to start my next chapter with a family of my very own. Do you need a loyal, loving friend like me? Apply to adopt me at www.sohfga.com. If you can’t adopt, you can help me by sharing this post.
Thanks for reading my story!
Sincerely,
Lady Violet 🐾

We’ve posted this guy over and over but we still don’t have a taker for him. His foster family is leaving for vacation soon which means he will have to move to another foster. We (and he!) would much prefer for him to move instead to his final and forever home! Can you help him out by sharing this post?

This regal gent is Duke. He is a two-year-old Terrier/Shepherd mix and he weighs about 50 pounds. Duke was found as a stray. When his owners were contacted thanks to his microchip, they said they didn’t want him back. Duke was not “lost” — he was likely intentionally abandoned.😔

In his foster home, Duke has proven to be a lovely houseguest. He is excellent with other animals and the older kids in the home. He is playful but not hyper and he enjoys relaxing on the sofa as much as anything. He has good leash manners and would enjoy taking walks with his new humans. Duke is crate-trained and housebroken. This guy is an all-around good boy and we don’t understand why his original family didn’t want him any more.

See more photos and apply to adopt Duke at www.SOHFGA.com.

“Guess who??? It is I, Jail Dog Alum Luke. My “paw-ents” decided to see my reaction to my dad barking at me. I guess my mom saw it on Facebook and I became the subject of their experiment. My dad usually doesn’t bark so I was a little surprised when he spoke “my language”. This video also means mom has run out of Jail Dog Alumni updates so PLEASE send her your updates to [email protected] or PM them to the FB page. You could even try this “experiment” with your Jail Dog Alum’s and I am sure mom will share it. Until then I will continue to hide when mom puts that camera to her face!” ~Luke #JailDogAlumni #July2020

Daisy

Miss Daisy spent some time with a few of our released handlers at Rabbit Hill Park yesterday. We are helping her current family look for a new home for her. Please no derogitory comments, they are looking to do what is best for Daisy and their family. Her current family absolutely adores her and knows that they aren’t able to give her the active home she needs. They were kind enough to bring her out to let the guys work with her. Daisy is an absolute dream! She has retained her basic obedience commands and would be a fantastic addition to an active family. A fenced yard for this peach of a girl would benefit her activity level and a family that would include her in activities such as hiking, running, etc… Daisy did well with the dogs she met at the park today and would make a wonderful addition to a family with children 8 years and older. She loves playing with the 3 small children in her home now, but is a bit too energetic for them. For more information about how you can adopt Daisy visit www.jaildogs.org.

***ADOPTED*** These adorable kittens are available for adoption through our rescue partner Society of Humane Friends of Georgia: Nancy and Little Tom are not biological siblings. They are like night and day personality wise but they have become the best of friends and we would like to place them as a pair. Nancy is a sassy, spirited girl who is always ready for adventure. You have to watch her closely around doors because she’s an escape artist who is always looking for mischief! Little Tom is a fluffy, laidback boy who stays right under your feet, begging to be picked up and cuddled. These two can often be found wrestling on the floor but later they will curl up together for a nap. These little cuties are just so silly and fun. If you are a cat lover you can’t go wrong with these two. You can apply to adopt Nancy and Little Tom at www.SOHFGA.com

Jail Dog Alum Paras, (now Panda) from the Pokémon litter earlier this year has found her way to Desperate Dogs as a client! This sweet girl was very shy when she left the program but her family is making sure she is getting all the socialization she needs to become a well rounded furry family member. Panda is also hanging out with Jail Dog Alum Samantha, AKA “ham sammich”, (the beautiful golden retriever) that calls the DD ranch her home with her fabulous mom Kristen.

Jail Dog Rocky

***ADOPTED*** Finishing what Rocky's first handler started. This morning you saw a video with Rocky and his very first handler. They worked very well together and accomplished a lot of wonderful training as a team. Today we show off the skill his handler was working on when he left the program earlier this year. This program is all about building on one anothers strengths. From handler to handler each of these dogs become a better pet for an adopter because of the handler before them. Working together for a common goal and helping each other, (dog and human) along the way. Now we need your help to further our mission with Rocky. He needs a home before December 15th. Rocky will go into a foster home if he isn't found a home by then, but we would love to let him start fresh with a family of his own rather than go from foster home to foster home until a family is found. If you can't adopt then please share this post to help Rocky find his second chance at a new beginning!

Rocky

Although we call him a "wrecking ball" he is so much more than that🤣. For those of you that don't know his story Rocky came to us as a pup after being tied to the door of a church and left. He has been a blur of happiness and contentment ever since he came through our doors. He does have a lot of energy to expel, but he also has one of the biggest hearts. After a fun day of play he loves to sit with his person(s) and enjoy their time together. He is smart, and loves to learn new things. Rocky would do best in a home without small children due to his energy level. He has so much to offer that he would be fantastic as your one and only furry family member because he would love to have you all to himself. We would love to see Rocky get a home for the holidays, as he is quickly approaching the year mark since starting our program. He is more than ready to go!!!
