Meet Apple Jacks! 🐾

This handsome boy has had a rough start and is still learning that people are safe — but he is making incredible progress and is looking for his perfect forever home.

Jacks needs:
✔ At least one other playful dog (his confidence booster!)
✔ A securely fenced yard (he’s still leash training)
✔ No young children
✔ Patient adults ready to give him several months to fully decompress

Here’s the good stuff: Jacks is a fast learner. He’s already crate trained, nearly fully potty trained, and takes social cues beautifully from other dogs. In his foster home he went from terrified to accepting pets from both humans within days. He’ll now calmly hang out in the same room and park himself between his people during evening TV. Cuddles feel close!

Oh — and this boy is WILD for hot dogs and rotisserie chicken. He takes treats gently from your hand like a total gentleman.

Jacks isn’t going to be an overnight success story, and that’s okay. He is going to be someone’s whole heart. Is that someone you?

You have the power to change a life—foster our girl Toaster now!

Our team is visiting a shelter in Georgia and check out Toasters story below 👇

Toaster was sadly abandoned and no one knew what happened to her owners. Luckily she had a community member watching out for her and filling up her bowl and water dish when they could. Then they called animal control as they realized Toaster was unclaimed and not being taken care of properly 😢

Animal control officers scooped her up and brought her to the shelter. At intake Toaster was scared, unsure and terribly skinny.

She has been slowly gaining weight the last few weeks and loving the consistent care by shelter staff but would love to be in a foster home.

Toaster doesn’t need a perfect home. She needs a consistent one. She needs someone to fill her bowl on purpose, not out of pity.

Fostering her doesn’t require a long commitment or a special setup. It just requires opening a door and letting her in.

Check out where Toaster was found and notice the likely permanent fly bites on her poor legs and paws 😔

If you can foster Toaster, please visit our website for an adoption application. Unable to foster or adopt - like, share, comment our post and help us spread the word on Toaster.

Every moment counts - by fostering, you’re giving a dog hope. Act now and help Paloma! Read her story below as some of our team is visiting a Georgia shelter this weekend ⬇️

Animal control found this sweet girl wandering the railroad tracks near the feed store, and she was absolutely massive pregnant. We scanned her and she actually had a chip, which meant she had a home at some point. Turns out she was picked up in the same situation about a year ago, also pregnant! This latest episode her owners said they were on their way to get her but they never came.

So here we are again with Paloma.

This girl has been through it, honestly. She has since given birth to her babies already and now is ready to find a new life.

If you have been thinking about fostering, please consider giving Paloma a soft place to land.

Visit our website to complete a foster application today. Paloma needs a place to land by Sunday afternoon.

➡️ Unable to foster or adopt at this time - you can still make a difference! Comment how gorgeous Paloma is or tag friends who may be looking to adopt. Every interaction helps us match Paloma to the best home possible.

🚨 AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION: ABBIE 🚨

Age: 3 years old
Weight: 20 lbs of pure comedy
Breed: Professional Bed Hog / Certified Good Girl

Meet Abbie — the tiny roommate you didn’t know you needed. At just 20 pounds, she somehow manages to take up 97% of the bed every night. Scientists are still studying how this is possible.

✅ Potty trained
✅ Extremely friendly
✅ Sleeps with her foster parents like she pays the mortgage
✅ Makes everyone laugh daily

Abbie loves people, cuddles, and acting like she’s been employed full-time as your emotional support supervisor for years. She’s the type of dog who greets strangers like long-lost family and believes personal space is just a rumor.

Her hobbies include:
• Stealing your spot the second you stand up
• Following you to the bathroom for “security purposes”
• Looking innocent after doing something suspicious
• Snoring louder than a grown man despite weighing less than a bowling ball

Abbie is ready to find her forever family — preferably one with soft blankets, snacks, and humans willing to accept that she will absolutely sleep in the bed. Non-negotiable.

Apply now to adopt this hilarious little gremlin before her foster family “accidentally” keeps her forever. ❤️🐾

🐾 Meet Roger — the King of Friendly🐾

Roger is a young adult male cat with one mission in life: make friends with absolutely everyone. Humans? Love them. Other cats? Besties. Dogs? Yep, those too. If you come over to visit, don’t be surprised when Roger is the first to greet you like he’s been waiting all day for his favorite person to arrive.

This social butterfly has never met a stranger. He’s the type of cat who will confidently stroll right up to someone new demanding pets, attention, and probably an invitation into their lap. Roger is playful, affectionate, and full of personality. He would thrive in a home where he can be involved in all the action and soak up plenty of love.

If you’re looking for a cat who acts more like your overly friendly coworker than a shy mysterious feline, Roger is your guy. 🐱❤️

Meet Roger and prepare to fall in love instantly!
