Atlanta Area - Zack the Border Collie- mix Needs a Forever Home



Hi my name is Zack and I'm looking for someone to love.  I am a 5 years old and I’m a male Border collie mix. I weigh about 50 pounds and I love to interact with people.

I am very obedient and very well behaved! I’m even crate trained and house broken. I am very friendly with people, other dogs, and little children.

If you wish to cuddle, I’m right there next to you. I’m cute and irresistible as well! I really need a new home and I would love anyone who will love me!

P.S. Attached are some pictures of my cute self :)

Dogs Need New Loving Homes - Please help (Atlanta area)

Please see the attached photos of Milo, Tilly & Robin - these three dogs are my rescue babies that I am currently fostering. I've fostered Milo around four years and Tilly and Robin about 2 years. I have sent out multiple requests for foster homes or forever homes without any success. I've reached out to rescue groups and no-kill facilities without any success. I have taken them to adoption days at Petsmart and Petco on many occasions without any success. Over the past few 4-5 years, I have fostered over 20 dogs and cats and slowly found wonderful homes for them - but I'm now unable to provide fostering to 3 dogs and 4 cats that are currently living with me for financial and work-rated reasons and I must either place them in a foster or forever home as soon as possible or make the horrible decision to have them humanely euthanized. Please, please send this request out to anyone and everyone that could help pass this e-mail along - I need a miracle.....

Milo is a 4 1/2 year old Lab/Hound mix with beautiful markings and a sweet personality. He weighs around 55-60 lbs and is housetrained. He's very affectionate and loves to snuggle at the same time making a great guard dog that will only bark when someone is approaching the house. Milo lives with cats and other dogs and would do well in a home with either. Milo is up-to-date with routine shots, house trained and spayed/neutered.

Robin and Tilly are 2-1/2 year old brother/sister Shepherd mixes. This brother and sister duo love and depend on each other and really should be fostered or adopted together. These darlings just want to be loved and be part of a family who will treat them as one of their own. They are wonderful pets and will bring much joy to your home if someone will just give them a chance. They weigh around 50 lbs, are crate-trained and housebroken. They love to hang out in the house and also play outside. They are shy at first but warm up once they get used to you. Both are spayed/neutered and are current on their shots.

We Saved a Life Yesterday & It Feels Great!

Big News all... Remember the big Mastiff mix that I sent you an email about yesterday?

YoYo's time was running out. Lots of people helped.

Thanks to the internet, a bunch of big-hearted animal-loving people got the word out through emails, twitter, facebook and other means....

YoYo has a new forever home! Yippee!

As it turned out, it was one of my best friends, Ita Dore, who called late yesterday afternoon to say that she might be interested. She and her husband, Kirk, own a horse farm, the Towne Lake Equestrian Club in Woodstock (www.tleclub.com) , and so has a lot of room for a big, happy fellow like YoYo.

Thanks Ita and Kirk for stepping forward and offering this beautiful creature a new life with your family. They plan to rename him Gumbeaux as Kirk is from Louisiana.

Thanks Realtors For Pets family for helping to get the word out.

Thanks Richard Stewart (www.saspet.com), Kristen Butler (www.HomesByTheAdvantageTeam.com), Pat Thomas, and Sharise Cunningham for letting us know about this handsome boy.

Thanks to the owner for working hard to get YoYo a new home.

Thanks Al Gore for inventing the internet.

email from Richard Stewart.....

It was a real team effort thanks to Gina Carr and Kristen Butler with Realtors for Pets. It was their friend that took YoYo! This is how we hope it always goes : ).

email from Pat Thomas.....

Sharise and Rick, this is awesome news. I am so happy for YoYo.

Please send us information and a photo of the female pit, and, we'll send out to our contacts to see if we can find her a place. She will be more of a challenge, but, I'm hopeful we can find someone who may step up for her.

Again, so so happy for YoYo.

Wow, what a weekend! I hope that someone loves me as much as everyone has shown love for Yoyo, a stranger to all of you!

Richard Stewart wound up having someone who lives on a farm. She spoke with Rick and he is dropping of Yoyo TONIGHT!!

Thank you Edith and thank you Richard.

And a HUGE thank you to every one of you I have gotten to know through this process. I know where I will turn in the future. If anyone still has ideas for the female pit, I would love for her not to be put down.

HUGE THANK YOU TO ALL! I AM DANCING ON AIR!!!!!!!!

Best Regards to ALL!

Big Dog Lovers - YoYo needs temporary home - Urgent!

Thanks to help from the Realtors For Pets Community, YoYo was saved and has a new forever home! (See Feb 2 post.)

http://www.saspet.com/Realtors_For_Pets.html

Hello,

This is a last ditch effort to try to save an awesome Mastiff Mix dog named Yoyo. Please visitwww.saspet.com and go to my Realtors for Pets page for details. If you or someone you know can help please let me know ASAP as we are trying to beat the clock. He is scheduled to be put down by the end of the day. I can be reached at 678-431-9954. I will pick him up and drop him off at your doorstep. Even if you can accommodate him for a short time until room is open at one of the rescue groups we work with. However know up front there is no guarantee how quickly we can find room at a rescue as many of them are full, so be prepared to keep him for at least a couple of weeks.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Sweet Senior Rose Needs a New Home Urgently - Owner Died

Please read the story below about Rose. PLEASE pass along to anyone you may know who would be able to take her in…..

those sweet eyes deserve a place to live out her remaining years. Info to rescue/adopt/foster is below.

Rose needs a new home soon

Dog taken to Animal Control after owner dies.

tool name

close

Rose is facing a death sentence.

Less than a week after her owner died, Rose, a 10-year-old rottweiler mix, has ended up at the pound — with less than two days to live.

Columbus animal control workers took the dog June 24 after its owner passed away from natural causes.

“The dog was very scared at the time,” Muscogee County Coroner Bill Thrower said.

Rose’s owner, a 63-year-old woman, lived alone and took care of stray animals at the Clay Drive Mobile Home Park, Thrower said.

Rose was found in her owner’s unkempt home, which Thrower said was infested with fleas.

Rose was scheduled to be euthanized first thing this morning.

However, Drale Short, city division manager of special enforcement, said Monday they will hold Rose in the Columbus Animal Care and Control Center for a

couple more days in case anyone wants to adopt her.

PAWS Humane, a no-kill animal adoption center located next door, is unable to take the medium-sized dog because of lack of space.

Rose is sweet and gentle. She has a skin condition on her back from a flea infestation, but workers said it’s treatable.

“She’s very quiet,” Short said. “She doesn’t do a lot of barking.”

Short said that’s probably because she’s mourning her owner’s death. “Dogs are very attached to their owners and they know when something’s wrong,” she said.

If you want to adopt Rose, call animal control at 706-653-4512 and ask for Drale Short. It’s $45 to $55 to adopt a dog, depending on its age.

Last year, the city impounded 8,138 animals — 846 of which were adopted or placed in homes. About 6,330 dogs and cats were euthanized.
