Playful Ginger Looks for Frisbee Thrower

Ginger is available for adoption from Atlanta Humane Society - Mansell Campus.

Ginger is a beautiful shepherd mix who is looking to finally find her forever home. At eight months old, she is already 58 pounds and still has some growing left to do. She will be a large dog and is very active and playful. Ginger would love to find someone committed to helping her learn basic obedience while taking the time to help her spend all her energy. Ginger is smart and loves to please so she would make an excellent candidate for obedience classes. She would also be a good running buddy. Among her favorite things are rope toys and Frisbees. She loves to leap after them and will occasionally request a round of tug-of-war with the rope. Ginger loves other dogs and will cheerfully try to play with any that come along. However, she …

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…

Meet Mabry, a Tiny Package With a Big Heart

Mabry is available for adoption through Angels Among Us Pet Rescue.

Meet Mabry, a Chihuahua-Rat Terrier mix who weighs in at 9 pounds of pure love and affection. She is approximately 2 years old, is spayed, house- and crate-trained, is microchipped and is up-to-date on all shots and vetting.  Mabry is a serious lover. She loves to snuggle and give kisses in abundance. It's almost as though she was born to sit in her human's lap. Sweet Mabry gets along well with dogs of all sizes and loves people but is shy initially when meeting them. Since she's not been around cats, it's not known how she would react to them.  She is also a fun-loving little girl and loves to play the "ice game" with her foster mom. You see, when foster mom gets ice from the fridge, Mabry gets all excited, so her mom gives her a piece of…

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 Among…

Damaged Doggie Heart in Need of Love

Digby is available for adoption through Angels Among Us Pet Rescue.

Introducing Digby, a male, purebred, parti-coloored Cocker Spaniel who is between 4 and 5 years old.  Digby is neutered, microchipped, up-to-date on shots and vetting, and is more than ready to find his perfect "forever" home and family. Digby is house-trained but might experience a few mishaps in the beginning, until he is comfortable in his new home and surroundings. Digby is a poor soul who had a very rough start in life and is seeking a very special soul who will see him not only for what he is, but all he can be again, given time and love and patience.  This poor boy has permanent hearing loss because of the mistreatment he suffered from his previous owner who hit Digby repeatedly, left him alone for days at a time and did not see to …

Tender-Hearted Dog Looking for a Home

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

Meet Hazel, a little Lab/hound mix girl who is around 10 months old. Currently, she weighs around 30 pounds and should get much bigger than she is now. Hazel is spayed, microchipped, vetted, up-to-date on all her shots and is ready to find her new home and family. Hazel came to Angels Among Us Pet Rescue as a stray who was found and taken to Animal Control in Gwinnett County.  She is a sweet, shy, loving little girl who is completely crate-trained and can sleep in her crate at night. She is close to being fully house-trained and will potty outside when taken. Hazel loves other dogs, kids and people.  Hazel's foster does not have cats so it is not known about her temperment around them. She loves her rubber Kong toy filled with peanut …

Loving, Curious Dog Needs Forever Home

Greenlee is available for adoption through Angels Among Us Pet Rescue.

Greenlee is a female Lab/shepherd mix who is 10 months old and weighs approximately 35 pounds. Greenlee is spayed, up-to-date on all her shots, is crate-trained, as she sleeps in her crate at night.  She is also house-trained, with reminders to "pick a spot" when she is outside to do her business. Greenlee came to Angels Among Us Pet Rescue from a rural shelter where she was turned in as a "stray."   When she was rescued by Angels Rescue, she was around 6 months old, thin and very sick. Additionally, she was extremely afraid of everything and everyone. She has made great strides since being in her foster's home but still tends to lunge at other dogs on her walks and at adoptions events.   Greenlee's foster is working with her on small …

Shy, Loving Dog Needs a Forever Home

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

Chip is a male Schipperkee mix who is 3-4 years old and weighs approximately 30 pounds. He is neutered, house- and crate-trained, will willingly go to the door and bark to be let outside, if needed.  He is up-to-date on all his shots, vetting, preventatives, and is microchipped.  This precious dog has several strikes against him: 1) he caries the stigma of being a black dog, 2) he's a special-needs doggie, and 3) he's not as outgoing as others at adoption events and often gets overlooked.  But no one has a bigger need to find his forever family than this shy little boy. Chip came to Angels Among Us Pet Rescue from a "hoarding" case in Cherokee County almost two years ago. He was part of a group of 200-plus animals kept on the property; he …

A Bundle of Love Ready For A Home

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

Meet little Fife. This precious boy weighs around 10 pounds and is 10 weeks old. Volunteers from Angels Among Us Pet Rescue think he may be a Shiba Inu mix of some sort, but as you can from his face, he has a very unique look. Little Fife is up-to-date with all his shots, is fully vetted, and will be neutered when he reaches 20 weeks old. This boy is perfect now, but he had a very horrendous start in life. Fife came to Angels Among Us Pet Rescue as a stray. When he was found and brought into the shelter, he was around 3-1/2 pounds, barely able to stand, malnourished and very close to death. In fact, his core body temperature was so low, he could not be bathed at the time he was pulled from the shelter.  Fife was covered in fleas, as well …

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 …
