Special Dog with Special Needs Looking For a Home

Rainy is available for adoption from Angels Among Us Pet Rescue.

Meet Rainy, a male, Lab/shepherd mix who is 8-12 months old and weighs around 40-50 pound. Rainy is neutered, microchipped, up to date on all his shots and vetting and is ready to find his forever home and family.  Rainy has such a special story to tell. You see, this poor pup was used by someone to train another dog to fight. Precious Rainy is not a fighter at all - he's very loving and doesn't have a mean bone in his body. This dear boy was brought into animal control after a horrible fight with torn ears, multiple puncture wounds all around his head.  As you can see in one of the pictures, Rainy actually lost the ear flap on the left side of his head that covered over the canal going into his ear. His injuries were horrific when he was …

Perfect Lab Mix Looking for a Home

Em is available for adoption from Angels Among Us Pet Rescue.

Meet Em, a Lab/mix female who's affectionately known as a "beautiful Georgia brown dog." She is 6 to 7 years old and weighs a "perfect" 50 pounds.  Em is also spayed, microchipped, totally house-trained and crate-trained. Em's fosters only put her in her crate if they are going to be gone more than a few hours, as she is fine being loose in the home most of the time.  She does seem to have a desire to help her human keep the house clean, so if you leave socks and old papers laying about, she will at times help you clean up by picking them up and taking them to her crate to chew on. Her foster mom says Em has never chewed on anything of substance.  Em is also up-to-date on all her shots and preventatives with perfect vet records, and is a …

Sweet Hound Looking for a Home

Jaffe is available for adoption from Angels Among Us Pet Rescue.

Meet "Jaffe," a male Hound-mix dog who is 4 to 5 years old and weighs approximately 78 pounds. This boy is a tad overweight right now, but his foster is helping him slim down a bit.  The vet says ideally he should weigh about 60 pounds and he was obviously overfed by his previous owners. He is neutered, house and crate-trained, up-to-date on shots and vetting and is microchipped.  Jaffe is good with non-reactive, easygoing dogs but he's not been around felines, so we don't know how he would react - most hound mixes find them fun to chase, so probably no kitties for his home.  He adores humans and attention from them.  This boy is okay with kids, but does best with older ones who know not to jerk bones and toys out of his mouth.  He can get…

Two Canine Hearts Looking for One Home

Sugar Pie and Spices available for adoption from Angels Among Us Pet Rescue.

Meet "Sugar Pie and Spices," one totally adorable pair who are looking for their forever home and family through Angels Among Us Pet Rescue. Sugar Pie is approximately 4 years old and Spices is around 2 years old. They each weigh around 6 pounds.   Both dogs are Chinese-Crested/Papillion mixes and were saved as part of a group of 20 dogs living with their owner inside the back of a van near Chatsworth, Ga. Sugar Pie is a female, and little Spices is a male. This pair is very bonded to each other, so Angels Rescue needs to find a loving home willing to open their doors and hearts for both.  When you meet them, you quickly understand why Angels is working to have them adopted together. Each night, as they go to bed, they quickly scoot under …

Adorable Daschund/Yorkie Mix Needs a Home

Cilla is available for adoption from Angels Among Us Pet Rescue.

Meet little Cilla, a Daschund/Yorkie mix girl who is around 1 year of age and weighs approximately 8 pounds - and every pound is full of love, affection.  Even though Cilla is small, her heart is as big as the sky and full of love and hope for a family and home of her own. Cilla is spayed, 98 percenthousetrained (100 percent if taken out periodically), microchipped and up-to-date on all vetting and shots.  She is also crate-trained and adores her crate. She easily goes into her crate when offered a treat. Cilla came to Angels Among Us Pet Rescue through a rural animal control shelter, a little stray girl alone, facing death, but still put her best paw forward, greeting everyone who came her way, and begging them to rescue her.  Angels …

Chihuahua Mix Named Ivan Ready for Adoption

An ideal home for this little dog would be a "quiet house where the owner is either retired or works from home."

Meet Ivan, a male Chihuahua mix who is approximately 3-4 years old and weighs 10 pounds.  He is neutered, 90 percent house-trained, is up-to-date with all his shots and vetting, is micro-chipped and is ready to find the right, perfect family and forever home.   Ivan came to Angels Among Us Pet Rescue from a high-kill shelter where he was dumped by his previous owner. As he was being left, his owner stated she "wanted nothing to do with him" and simply walked out.  This precious dog was so traumatized by his experience, he had to be sedated at the vet's office when receiving his initial checkup and care. After knowing his background and circumstances, there is a strong suspicion of abuse and harm  that little Ivan endured before being …

Corgi Mix Has a Heart Full of Love

Ezra loves kids and is available for adoption through Angels Among Us Pet Rescue.

Please meet sweet Ezra. He is a 2-4 year-old Corgi/Terrier mix who weighs around 17 pounds. This baby is truly 17 pounds of pure love and affection. There is nothing better in this world to him than having a child to love on him, pet him, and allow him to share lots of sweet kisses. Ezra is good with humans and other animals and is just the most wonderful little boy who enjoys everything and everyone. This dog was adopted by a couple who worked very long hours. This caused him to be kept in his crate for up to 20 hours a day. His owners didn't want him to potty in his crate, so they didn't give him much water and food. He had to sleep in soiled blankets every night for two years.   When the organization they originally got him from wouldn'…

Spaniel-Beagle Mix Looking for a Home

Kirstie is 19 months old and weighs 30 pounds.

Meet Kirstie – a Spaniel/Beagle mix female who is 19 months old and weighs around 30 pounds. This poor girl and her siblings were found at the age of three months old in a high-kill shelter in Georgia and were rescued before their turn to be euthanized.  All of these puppies had fear issues at the time of rescue and Kirstie most of all. She is timid and initially scared when she is in an area without boundaries/no fencing and takes her time building trust with humans and a bit longer with males, but, with patience, comes a reward of love and acceptance from this amazing young pup.  Kirstie has a lot of energy and loves to run laps in the back yard and in the house. She is addicted to playing "chase" with her foster siblings and loves to …

Beautiful Pit Bull Needs a Home for the New Year

Witteny is 2 years old and weighs 55 pounds.

Meet Witteny – an American Pit Bull Terrier and a gorgeous girl who is 2 years old and weighs 55 pounds. As you can see from her pictures, this dog is gorgeous and has a personality and demeanor that matches her beautiful looks.  Witteny was pulled from a high-kill Georgia shelter in June 2012. Due to her breed and the stigma surrounding it, she was listed as a "rescue only" dog.  Witteny was slated to be put down at 4 p.m. the day she was saved (at 3:55 p.m.) by an Angels Among Us volunteer named Lynda who agreed to foster her and save her life that fateful day.  When Lynda got this girl home, she was very skinny and had the scars on her of being used as a possible "bait dog." Witteny is NOT a fighter - she is a total love bug who wants …

Young Pekingese Pup Ready for Adoption

Chung was rescued from a high-kill shelter and is looking for a home for Christmas.

Meet Chung. He answers to Oscar. Chung is a male Pekingese, approximately 3-4 years old, who weighs in at 17 pounds of pure love and affection. He's like most of his breed and wants to be the center of his human's world and be spoiled and loved. This young dog was rescued from a high-kill shelter in Georgia and was a victim of physical abuse in his former life before coming into the Angels Among Us organization.  When they found him, he had terribly matted fur and was literally afraid of everyone. Now, he is a healthy, happy dog looking for a home and family to call his very own for Christmas.  He had a pretty rough start in life but has learned to trust humans again and now wants to show that he can love again, with the right family and …
