Remi is a bubbly senior Pomeranian. He's very food motivated he'll happily perform for treats with a charming twirl. He's an independent gentleman, he's super into cuddling but he loves to lay nearby and bask in your presence.

Remi likes other dogs, ignores cats, and adores humans of all sizes. He's still waiting for the right fur-ever family, so far none of his applicants have been the right match. He has a heart condition called sinus arrest, he was likely born with it and has made concessions for it his whole life. This happy boy has no issues walking around the yard and can climb stairs like the best of them.

Adoptable dog alert, meet Poppy! She's a Shih Tzu with a black and white cookie colored coat. She's around 3 years old and just shy of 10 lbs. She's spayed, heartworm negative, and up to date on vaccines and monthly prevention. She's one of the GA breeder dogs, she's likely blind and is missing an eye, her intact eye has a cataract.

About Poppy:
- Dog, cat, and kid friendly
- Former pirate, actual princess
- Fenced yard preferred

Poppy the pirate princess recently decided to fully focus on her princess duties. She may have lost an eye in her previous pirate-y life but it doesn't slow her down in the slightest. She loves people, including her 5 and 7 year old human siblings, and snuggling. She's becoming one of the cutest couch potatoes you've ever seen; and recently discovered that the best place to nap is on your lap!

Poppy is working on house, potty, and leash training. Given her background and vision limitations, she still has some accidents in the house but she's making great progress. She'd benefit from a fenced yard but its not a requirement.

Poppy likes other small dogs and cats, she recently started showing interest in playing with her doggie sibling. She likes having friends around, though she prefers people.

Princess Poppy is ready for her fur-ever family. She's rated for small dogs, cats, and respectful kids (5+). She needs patient and loving adopters who understand her background and recognize that she'll need time and encouragement to acclimate to her new home. She'd do best with people who are around more often than not, especially if she's going to be an only dog. If Poppy is your cookies and cream dream dog, we'd love to see an application from you!

Adoptable dog alert, meet Mia! She's a Cavalier Spaniel with a terrific tricolor coat. She's estimated to be 6 years old and is about 24 lbs. She's spayed, heartworm negative, and up-to-date on vaccines and monthly prevention.

More about Mia:
- Adults and kids 7+ yrs

- Fenced yard preferred to continue potty training success

Marvelous Mia is a laid back dog who loves her people. She's a sweetheart who adores cuddling. Her foster feels she'd do well as a family dog and she's rated for kids 7+. Her ideal home has a fenced yard for easy potty breaks and play time.

Mia prefers people to dogs and cats, she lives with another foster dog and a feline friend. She doesn't go out of her way to interact with either of them. She happiest when she gets all of her foster's attention and snuggles.

Mia is ready for her fur-ever family. Her ideal home is with people who're home frequently, she'd be a lovely addition to a family. She'd love to have a yard for play time and to continue her house and potty training success. She'd be happy to be an only child and soak up all of your love and attention.

8/30 UPDATE: Well our boy Benz is a fighter! Blood work that was repeated at the ER overnight showed a small elevation in his liver values. That was a little bit concerning. His fever finally broke and he began to start taking food in the early morning hours. All good signs. Blood work was repeated again this morning, and the liver values started decreasing, which was the way they wanted it to go. So he was responding well to the IV medications, including antibiotics, anti nausea, and anti diarrhea. With everything going in the right direction, Dr. Timberlake sent him home with many medications to keep him on the road to recovery. No true diagnosis was made. However, it is suspected that he had a bacterial infection that inflamed his GI tract. She believes that the bacteria began entering his bile duct causing the liver values to increase slightly. He is still a very tired boy. With his ravenous appetite and care from Bridget, his temporary medical foster mom, he should be back to his playful self in no time. Thank you to Dr. Timberlake and staff @ V.E.G. ER Hospital for taking great care of Benz and our rescuel and of course to everyone that has contributed to his $3200+ vet bill. We can't help these babies without your support.

UPDATE: 3:15PM OUR BOY Benz is very sick. Your donations are vey much appreciated to save his life. He is being admitted to the ER and staying the night as they need to monitor him. He has a high fever. X-rays show no blockages. No parasites. No toxins. Bloodwork has the doctor concerned that he is going into sepsis. They have him on antibiotics, fluids and medications for anti-nausea and anti-diarrhea. They will continue to monitor his bloodwork as his liver values were a little elevated. We know he is being well taken care. Please continue praying for Benz. He is a happy-go-lucky boy and loves to cuddle. He is a super special boy.

I am hoping we can post some happy adoption posts soon however this morning I received calls from two foster moms that their dogs need ER visits....Hope is okay....a bit deydrated from the antibiotics she was receiving from her spay surgery. She hadn't eaten or drank and was very lethargic. She received fluids and meds and is expected to be okay.

We are once again asking for your help...this time for Benz. He was under the weather yesterday, not being his playful self and would not eat or drink. He began vomiting this morning. He is at Veternarian Emergency Group (V.E.G.) now in critical condition receiving fluids and diagnostics. We will update when we have more info. His current vet expense is $1100. ER visits are a big hit to rescues. If you are able to donate please visit our website:

All donations go to the veterinarian care and supplies needed to care for our dogs.
Thank you. Please keep Benz and Hope lifted in prayer.
