Ratatouille is Looking for a Purrfect Home

This Tabby is up for adoption in Lawrenceville, Ga.

***Ratatouille's foster mom is moving out of town soon, and is offering a special adoption fee of $50 in the hopes of placing him before she leaves.*** Ratatouille is a wonderful little Tabby boy who would like to meet you! Born around the middle of June, this tiny kitten somehow got stuck in a sewer pipe. A passersby heard him crying, and rescue ensued. Once he was safely out, we took him into foster care, where he is doing great! His foster mom jokingly called him Sewer Rat at first, but he is just too cute for such a name, so a couple of our members thought of Ratatouille, and we like it! This little guy is sweet and playful and ready to meet the world. You can only see a little in his photos, but he has beautiful markings. Ratatouille …

Binks Needs a Loving Home

This Jack Russell Terrier/Chihuahua Mix is up for adoption in Lawrenceville, Ga.

Binks is a precious little four year old girl who needs a forever home! She came to us along with her dad (see Da Vinci) when their previous owner was no longer able to keep them. Her dad is a Yorkie/Jack Russell Terrier mix, so she has those breeds in her blood, and maybe a little Chihuahua as well. We know that she is 100% pure adorable in any case! Binks has spent her whole life with her daddy protecting her, so she is understandably a bit shy at first. She is very sweet and gets along fine with other dogs. She is crate trained, but will need some assistance in the housebreaking department, as she was living outside for a while in her previous home. She is looking for a loving home where she can feel safe and secure.  Pretty little …

Da Vinci Needs a Loving Home

This Yorkshire Terrier Yorkie/Jack Russell Terrier is up for adoption in Lawrenceville, Ga.

Da Vinci, or Vinny, is an absolutely adorable Yorkie/JRT mix. He is about six years old, and weighs about ten pounds. Vinny's previous owner is unable to keep him due to health issues, and we have promised to find him a great home. He is a sweet boy, a bit shy at first, but warms up after a while and is very friendly. He gets along well with other dogs, and loves to play ball with his foster dad. He grudgingly tolerates bathing and nail clipping. He is crate trained, but needs a bit of help in the housebreaking department, as he was living outside for a while in his previous home. This sweet fella deserves a good and loving home. If you would like to meet him, please let us know! Prior to adoption, Vinny will be fully vetted -- neutered, …

Meet Marnie, A Puppy Up fo Adoption

This Shepherd/Wirehaired Terrier Mix is looking for a forever home.

Marnie is a lovely little puppy who needs a forever home. Born around the middle of March, Marnie came to us when her previous owners found they could not keep her. We have promised to find her a great permanent home. This adorable girl appears to be a Shepherd/Wirehaired Terrier mix. Her coat is wiry but soft, and we think she will probably be a nice medium size when full grown.  Her foster mom tells us that she is a real sweetheart who gets along wonderfully with the other dogs in her foster home. Marnie is looking for a home where her person or family has the time, patience and energy that all pups need to help her grow up to be a great dog. She will make a great pet! If you would like to meet Marnie, please let us know. Marnie is fully…

Baxter Needs a Good Home

This Bichon Frise/Yellow Labrador Retriever Mix is up for adoption in Lawrenceville, Ga.

Mister Baxter is a precious boy, one of eleven pups born in rescue on January 9th, 2013. Baxter's Momma, Diamond, is a lovely Yellow Lab mix, about 60 lbs, and Dad is a 20 lb purebred Bichon Frise. We are guessing that Baxter's full grown size will be somewhere in between the two. What an interesting and beautiful mix!  Baxter is a fuzzy, somewhat wirey-coated boy, but his fur is very soft. He is probably not hypoallergenic, despite being part Bichon. Baxter is very likely to shed, and will require regular grooming to keep his coat in good condition. This little fella is sweet and playful, and loves romping with the other dogs in his foster home. He is looking for a home where his person or family has the time, patience and energy that all…

Gentle Ben Needs a Loving Home

This Black Labrador Retriever is up for adoption in Lawrenceville, Ga.

Gentle Ben is a great looking three year old Lab who needs a great home. He was taken in as a stray by a good friend of our group, who found him wandering alone in his neighborhood. Gentle Ben is just like his name... sweet, shy, very gentle and a bit tentative at first, but his tail starts to wag after a moment or two. He has a beautiful face and a glossy coat, which we tried in vain to capture in his photos. In person (or dog!) he is a really handsome boy with a very sweet demeanor. When Ben was checked out at the vet, he tested positive for heartworm, probably as a result of being kept outside most of the time, or wandering on his own for who knows how long. He has now been treated and is recovering well, and on his way to a clean bill …

Momma's Boy is Looking for a Family

This Beagle/Jack Russell Terrier Mix is up for adoption in Lawrenceville, Ga.

This is Momma's Boy, he is one of Ginger's pups. Born in rescue on January 13th, Boy and his four siblings have been nursed and raised by a wonderful momma dog, and now Momma's Boy is ready to find his forever home. He is sweet and playful, and loves to romp with his littermates. His mother is a Beagle mix, and dad is a traveling salesman, but we think he was probably a big dog. Boy will most likely be a medium to large sized dog when full grown. He needs a home with a securely fenced yard where he can safely run and play, and a person or family who has the time, patience and energy that all pups need to help him grow up to be a great dog. He will make a fine pet! If you would like to meet Momma's Boy, please fill out our online …

Josie Needs a Good Home

This Jack Russell Terrier mix is up for adoption in Lawrenceville, Ga.

Josie is a lovely little Jack Russell mix female, about 7 years old and in perfect health. She is small, weighing in at just ten pounds. She was found running toward a busy roadway in Gwinnett. A nice woman stopped alongside her, opened the car door and Josie jumped in. The lady tried to find her owner but had no luck. Josie had no tags or microchip, was covered with fleas and ticks, and not looking her best. She was bathed several times, clipped close to the skin so the dirt could be washed out. She is now a cute little bundle of love.  Although her coat is short now, when grown out she is a little white dog with black ears. Her skin has speckled coloring and is very cute. We have provided a before and after picture of her so you can see …

Braveheart is Looking for a Good Home

This Beagle/Jack Russell Terrier Mix is up for adoption in Lawrenceville, Ga.

Say hello to Braveheart, one of Ginger's pups! Born in rescue on January 13th, Braveheart and his four siblings have been nursed and raised by a wonderful momma dog, and now he is ready to find his forever home. He is sweet and playful, and loves romping around with his littermates. His mother is a Beagle mix, and his dad is a mystery man, but we think he must have been a bigger dog. Braveheart will most likely be  a medium to large sized dog when full grown. He needs a home with a securely fenced yard where he can safely run and play, and a person or family who has the time, patience and energy that all pups need to help him grow up to be a great dog. He will make a wonderful pet!  If you would like to meet Braveheart, please fill out our…

Beautiful Bruiser Betty Needs a Forever Home

This Beagle mix is up for adoption in Lawrenceville, Ga.

Bruiser Betty is one of Ginger's pups! Born in rescue in January, this adorable little gal (along with her four siblings) has been weaned and raised by a great momma dog, and now she is ready to meet the world. Betty is the largest of her litter, and we know that her mom is a pretty Beagle mix, but her dad is a mystery man, and we think he was a big dog! As you can see, Betty has a kind of  St. Bernard look, and while we don't think she will get that large, she will surely be a big dog when full grown. She is sweet and playful, and loves to romp with her littermates. She needs a home with a securely fenced yard where she can safely run and play. Betty is looking for a person or family who has the time, patience and energy that all pups …
