Here's your chance to help a beautiful Weim named Gabe? Gabe is a very handsome approx. 3 year old male Weim that was picked up as a stray N. GA and is currently boarding at the vet while he recovers from his neuter surgery. Unfortunately, not only did Gabe's original family not come looking for him, but he has been diagnosed with heartworms and will need to go through treatment. Gabe needs a foster home before Friday, August 21st. Gabe is good with other dogs and may even be okay with cats. He rides nicely in the car and would love a family that can provide a calmer environment. AWCR pays for all vetting and heartworm treatment. If you are interested in helping Gabe submit a foster/adoption application via our website: www.atlantalovesweims.org

Austin is just a puppy and needs a foster or adoption!!!! He’s a typical high energy guy with lots of love to give.

Austin needs a foster home!!!!!
Austin is a stunning 10-month-old, 45 lb. Weim/maybe Lab boy with a natural tail who was given a second chance at life just in the nick of time. He was set to be euthanized in an overcrowded Georgia shelter. Though he may not be a purebred Weimaraner, he has all the makings of an absolutely amazing companion. He is at that perfect puppy age where he is eager to learn, ready to bond, and full of affection. Austin did great when meeting others...he is definitely high energy, so other dogs in the home will need to be ready to play. Because Austin is still a young pup, he will thrive in a home that can give him lots of structure, plenty of love, and some basic training to help him grow into the best dog he can be. He has a bright, resilient spirit and is ready to leave his past behind to become the center of your world. If you are looking for a loyal, handsome, and grateful pup to join your family adventures, Austin is waiting to meet you! If you are interested in this adorable little guy, please complete the adoption application (or foster application) on our website: www.atlantalovesweims.org/adopt
(Austin is currently in boarding at Georgia Canine Rescue and Rehabilitation, Inc. in Cochran, GA...we can arrange to get him closer to Atlanta, if needed)

Meet Riggs!

Riggs is a 3 year old, neutered male that is eager to find his new family! Riggs was surrendered to rescue by his family to make sure that he would get the care and loving family that he deserves. He’s had a rough go of it, but he’s ready to bounce forward and find his new family!

As a 3-year-old Weim, he’s a typical “Weimaraptor” (iykyk!) and will need a family that will commit to training and lots of exercise for his body and his mind – but at the same time, he is a gentle soul that wants to be your best friend!

When Riggs arrived into rescue, he was a bit skinny, so our partners at Georgia Canine Rescue & Rehab (GCRR) have been working on getting him up to a healthy weight and learning more about him. Since he’s settled in and healed from his neuter surgery, he gets to start meeting other pups in the play yard, we can’t wait to tell you more about his adventures!

Unfortunately, Riggs is heartworm positive and will need to go through heartworm treatment, which is not fun for any dog, but especially for a young pup like Riggs! He would LOVE to be in a foster or foster/adopt home during treatment so that he can enjoy the comfort of a cuddle and learn to be a couch potato during his recovery!

If you are interested in fostering or adopting Riggs, please complete an application on our website at www.AtlantaLovesWeims.org/Adopt

If you have previously completed an application and are interested in fostering or adopting Riggs, please email us at [email protected].

Today's spotlight is our beautiful, Lucy...aka as Lucille McGuillicuddy!!!

Lucy update from her foster mom:
Upon Lucy's initial arrival, she exhibited signs of anxiety with lots of panting and difficulty settling in but in a short time she appeared much more relaxed. Lucy is taking independent potty breaks in the fenced yard. She tends to eat slowly and may need some encouragement to finish her meals. At night, she sleeps soundly on her bed in the same room as me. Currently, she is on a weight loss plan and is being fed Purina Pro Plan for weight management to help her get back to a healthy weight. Lucy is a gentle dog who enjoys being petted. She especially loves scratches on her backside. Although she is not a fan of the crate, with patience and training, she may become more comfortable with it. She gets along well with my dog. Since Lucy came to rescue with her sister, BooBear, we think having a canine companion in her new home would be beneficial. While Lucy could improve her leash manners, she is generally manageable on a leash. It is important for Lucy to have a consistent human companion to help her build confidence, so a home where she can receive regular attention and care would be ideal. I am confident that Lucy will make a wonderful companion for her new family.

Lucy is an 8.5 year old, female weimie with a docked tail who's owner passed away. She has worked really hard to gain her confidence and come out of her shell and we can honestly say that she has a lovely personality! She is a little shy and unsure in new situations, but she's willing to try if you are!

Lucy is working on crate training, is housebroken and happy to hang in a place she knows as home. She prefers to be with another laid back dog that will show her the ropes at her new place. We do know that she's not a fan of cats or farm animals, but would do great with older children that understand it will take some time for her to settle in. She'll need some refresher on leash walking.

If you are interested in adopting Lucy, please complete an application at www.AtlantaLovesWeims.org.

If you have already submitteded an application, please send us an email at [email protected].
