AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION!

Who needs some puppy love? Ruby and Ember (darker) are ready to embark upon their journey to a forever families! These cuties came to us from a shelter in rural Va and are ready to fill your home with love and excitement! They are about 3-4 months old now and it seems that they will be medium dogs. Any guess on breed would only be a guess but they are sure to bring happiness to everyone they meet!

Augusta Dog Adoptions is a 501c3 charitable, foster- based rescue. A $175.00 adoption fee ($300 for puppies under 6 months old) helps us take care of all the dogs we rescue. All dogs are spayed/neutered, tested for heartworm and tick-borne diseases (if old enough), microchipped, and vaccinated for rabies (if old enough), distemper/parvo and bordetella. They are also treated for internal and external parasites. Many dogs also receive extensive medical care such as dental work and major surgeries.

FOSPICE HOME NEEDED! YOUR DONATIONS AT WORK!

We are in search of a very special family to take care of our most special dog! Remember Holly! Holly came to us around Christmas time and was in dire need of our help. Her skin and ears healed but we soon found issues with her heart. Holly suffers from dilated cardiomyopathy and an irregular heartbeat. That means she is at high risk for a sudden cardiac event so it's too dangerous for her to be put under to spay. Holly is now on a heart medication to give her the most time and highest quality of life. She is happy, eating well and still gets the backyard zoomies! Holly loves people, other dogs and is good with cats!

We are looking for a special family to care for Holly for the rest of her days. If you are local, we are happy to keep covering the costs of her vet care at her current vet! You just provide the love and comfort to an amazing dog who deserves it so much!

Interested? Email us at www.augustadogadoptions.org for more information!

Happy Sunday! Let's take a little break from our busy holiday weekend and bask in the joy of some recent adoption!

Mary Ellen and one of the Walton Boys are lucky pups to have been chosen by their furEVER family!

Senior Abby hit the jackpot when she was picked by a three time ADA adopter who can give her exactly the kind of quiet and care that she craves!

Sadie, Elijah and Cole are a ready-made pack for the adventurous couple who welcomed not one...not two but three homeless dogs into their family! Party at their place!

And Princess....who after many months in our program has found her perfect person if she can respect the resident cat!

Let's send good vibes and positive juju to all of our new pet parents!

Big thanks so our fosters, donors, volunteers and supporters! Doesn't saving lives feel great?!
