Athens Canine Rescue

Athens Canine Rescue We are a non-profit volunteer network of foster homes rescuing stray dogs in the Athens area and placing them in forever homes. They are very trainable however!

To see our full list of adoptable dogs visit our website: www.athenscaninerescue.com Athens Canine Rescue is a non-profit organization of foster homes in Athens, Georgia. We have no shelter facility and we rely upon a network of foster homes to house our dogs until they are placed in permanent happy homes of their own. ACR only takes in dogs that are friendly, companion animals. As rescue dogs, AC

R pups have often been neglected by previous owners, and rarely arrive impeccably trained. Whether young or adult, ACR dogs are invariably loving, willing to please and incredibly grateful.

He's been waiting so patiently for his furever home. He's a timid little fella, without a mean bone in his body, and the cutest under bite.
