Mistletoe (NY)

Picture
Mistletoe is a wonderful and sweet Border Collie X girl with a lucious, medium length coat. Mistletoe is about 10 months old and pretty relaxed for such a young dog. She knows "sit" so someone must have cared enough to teach her something at some point in her life. Mistletoe rides well in the car, loves everyone and is great with kids. She is sometimes on the dominant side (if you are that pretty you get snotty sometimes, right?) and would do best in a home with a submissive dog or no dog. The only thing Mistletoe is missing is her forever family. Maybe she can give you a kiss under the Misteltoe next Christmas? Misteltoe has been spayed, is UTD on her shots, is microchipped, dewormed and HW tested. We are asking for an adoption donation of $400 to help with the care of our animals.

Ben (NY)

Picture
Ben and Jerry were picked up as strays in suburban Georgia. They are a great couple, but we have them in separate foster homes and they can each go to a different home. Ben is a Chihuahua Mix, weighs about 12 lbs and is just a sweet and very well behaved guy. His foster mom has only good things to say about him. He appears to be housebroken, loves a good snuggle/lap session and he also gets along with with other dogs. He is almost too good to be true. Ben just needs a new home to call his own.

Fred (NY)

Picture

Little Carlee is about 4-5 months old and came to us from a rural GA shelter. She was on the euthanasia list before Christmas (when shelters are very full), but a young volunteer could not let Carlee die and convinced the shelter staff to let her foster Carlee until rescue or an adopter could be found. So when we walked into the shelter door, Carlee was successfully advertised by her rescuer and she became a PPR member. Carlee has started her house and crate training in her foster home and has done very well. She has a great temperament and gets along with humans and dogs alike. She did not get excited about the cats either. Carlee will be a wonderful companion dog for almost any family.

He is the perfect sized dog. Bosko spent two months at a kill shelter and nobody picked him up. He had a little squeekie toy in his kennel and would play with it and put it in his food bowl.

Theo was the only pup that was not adopted out by the man and so he came to us. Theo is very sweet, cute as a button and adored by everyone who sees him.

Rusty (NY)- adopted

Picture
Sparky 2 is a super sweet youngster. At 10 months of age he found himself locked up in doggie jail. This little guy has lots of playful energy and would love a backyard to play fetch in.

He is still a puppy and will need training to become a wonderful canine friend. Sparky has been neutered, is UTD on his shots, dewormed, HW tested and microchipped. His adoption fee will be $400. If you are interested in meeting him, please visit our website and fill out an application.

Picture
Sweet Amos is a 1-year old, 35 lbs Scottie Mix. He is a total cutie and loves to play with toys and other dogs. Amos came to us from a GA city Animal Control facility where he was constantely overlooked because the lighting is very dark in the shelter (we are not kidding). Amos will make a wonderful addition to any family that appreciates a medium-energy level dog (not a total couch potato, but not jumping through the roof either). He would enjoy playtime and nice walks very much! Amos has been neutered, vaccinated, HW tested, dewormed and microchipped and can't wait to meet him forever family! His adoption fee will be $400.

Blossom (NY)- adopted

Picture
Blossom is a little cutie-pie Beagle Mix and about 2 years old and weighs 15 lbs. Blossom was brought to a rural Animal Control shelter with two pups that went to another rescue. She was adopted and brought back two days later. So, PPR scooped her up and promised to find her a great, new home. Blossom is a total cuddle bug, loves to snooze and get petted. She also walks very nicely on the leash. Blossom is a little bit the jealous type when it comes to sharing love and attention with other dogs, but she did fine in her foster home with two other dogs. Blossom is a wonderful, little lap dog full of doggie kisses and hopes to find her new home soon! Blossom has been spayed, vaccinated, dewormed, HW tested and microchipped. Her adoption fee will be $400.

Devon (NY)- adopted

Picture
This our precious Devon. She is just a year old and weighs about 35 lbs.

Devon is very well behaved, gets along with other dogs and is more on the calm side. She has never barked in her foster home. Devon could go to any type of home and would do great! We hope you adore Devon as much as we do and hopefully we will hear from you soon (hint, hint). Devon is spayed, vaccinated, dewormed and microchipped. Her adoption fee will be $400.

Bambi (NY)- adopted

Picture
Bambi is a very special girl and we are very proud of her. Bambi was one of the most scared dogs in the GA kill shelter. She would not walk, just crawl on her belly and roll over sometimes to show how submissive she was. Needless to say that most adopters would rather adopt a more outgoing dog. Since then, Bambi has completely turned around, no more belly crawling for her! Bambi loves attention, snuggle time and going for walks. She gets along with other dogs and to play. Her foster mom just adored her! Bambi is about 2-years old, weighs about 30 lbs and is scruffy and funny. She would really make a great family pet. Bambi has been spayed, vaccinated, dewormed, HW tested and microchipped. Her adoption fee will be $400.

Conan (NY)- adopted

Picture
Conan is a 1-year old scruffy Terrier Mix and weighs about 15 lbs. A GA rescue had Conan since he was a puppy (he was born Christmas eve of 2008) but was not successful in finding him a home. Little Conan is a sweet and cute little man and does well with other dogs. He is sweet as a button and will do great in almost any family environment.  Conan loves to play and would like a family that can spend a little time with him every day. Conan is neutered, vaccinated, dewormed and microchipped. His adoption fee will be $400.

Sookie (NY)- adopted

Picture
Sookie is our "miracle dog" and we actually debated naming her that. Sookie has a very special story which gives every dog lover the chills. Sookie was surrendered to Animal Control together with two of her siblings who were adopted. Only Sookie was left and Christmas came closer and closer. Unfortunately, Christmas time is a bad time for pets. Few adoptions and lots of surrenders (PPR had a fair share of calls...). The shelter decided that Sookie had to be euthanized for lack of space and so the needle was inserted and the medication started. Sookie's vein blew and the IV had to be taken out. We are not sure why, but the vet decided to take this as a sign and give Sookie another shot at life. So there she is still alive and happy as she can be. Sookie is a true sweetheart, almost housebroken and very well behaved. We think she has a hint of Aussie in her as we have seen her "herding" the other foster dogs together. We think she is about 7-8 months old and will grow to be in the 60 lbs range. If you are interested in meeting our miracle girl, please fill out our adoption application and email it to us asap. Sookie has been spayed, vaccinated, dewormed, HW tested and microchipped. Her adoption fee will be $400.
