"We got lost, and now what can we do?? A lot of barking makes us nervous.
It's just so loud here! We are so small and so scared! It?s a good thing we
have each other here! We help each other get through everything...If you can
take two pups, we would love to stay together! However, we'd rather be adopted
separately than to die here waiting for a together home. So do what you can to
save at least one of us. We are both very calm and sweet. We would be a perfect
family! Oh, good news! We are already potty trained and we are small lap pups,
so we wont take a lot of space. We will just be your friends forever. Please

Why Choose Me?
"I'm a puppy with a whole lot of energy. Once I my visitors

Why Choose Me?
"I am new to the world, and of course I am very curious and would like to
learn everything TODAY! It would be neat to see the world through your eyes,
because so far I only know that people pick me up, say how cute I am, but then
it's back to the cage. It would be nice to learn from today on...to learn that

me that?"

"Have you seen a cuter puppy than me? I am very friendly, smart and
loving? I can run and jump and be crazy, but I also love to cuddle. I would
love for you to pick me up and just let me sleep curled up in your lap. Please
take me home with you. I do not understand where I am right now or how I got
here, but I am ready to go, sitting like a patient prince by the door. Can I

LOVING PUPS & DOGS IN NEED OF A MIRACLE!!!
Name: Sugar
Age: 4 years
Breed: Australian Shepherd mix
Gender Female
Impound Date: 8/25
Ledger #: 18404
Why Choose Me?
"It is scientifically impossible for a dog to love humans more than Sugar
does. Sugar dotes on being near you and loves to cuddle close - real close.
She'd love to find a cozy spot between your kidneys if she could. She's a
little bit shy when she's in her run, but take her out to the exercise pen and
she opens up into a happy, loving dog. She has beautiful coloring and a gentle
face that glows with affection. She was so sad when her photo shoot was over
and she had to go back to her kennel that we gave in and let her stay out in the
pen with us as 'photographer's assistant'. She was a terrible assistant,
leaving muddy paw prints on our notes and sticking her nose into every picture,
but she had a great time and was fine with the other dogs in the pen. She was
annoyed with one unruly puppy, but having been a mama herself once, she knew he
should behave better and told him so. Sugar is as sweet as a dog can be and
will be a true blue companion."
Name: Deuce
Age: 3 months
Breed: Lab mix
Gender Male
Impound Date: 8/21
Ledger #: 18380
Why Choose Me?
"This little fella was found at the two mile marker on the Athens
Greenway. He now lives with a little puppy roommate in a kennel at the pound.
A step up from being a hobo at the park, but not by much! Time for this sweet
tail wagger to have a real home."
Name: Rex
Age: 5 years
Breed: Cocker Spaniel
Gender Male
Impound Date: 8/24
Ledger #: 18397
Why Choose Me?
"Rex has apparently has wonderful owners, because this boy is as calm and
obedient as he can be. He also has a pretty coat that's only dirty because it
has rained since he got lost. Rex appears to be housebroken because he pottied
right away when we let him out of his kennel. He's also so good on a leash that
he doesn't even need a leash! Not only did he calmly follow us into the
exercise pen without a leash, but he even calmly walked back to his kennel
and WENT INSIDE without a leash! That is definitely a first at the pound! If
you want an adult cocker spaniel, Rex is your man!"
Name: Hank
Age: 2 years
Breed: Husky mix
Gender Male-Neutered!
Impound Date: 8/23
Ledger #: 18383
Why Choose Me?
"Hank is a happy boy who's not real happy about being stuck at the
pound. He really appreciated being in the exercise pen getting his picture
taken and didn't even mind being tag team sniffed by two other dogs. He's a
lively, friendly boy and he must have had some smart owners, because he's
neutered too. He keeps his kennel clean and potties right way when he gets out
for a walk, so it's likely he's housebroken. If his owners can't find him, he's
good to go for another lucky family.
Name: Wiggles
Age: 6 months
Breed: Hound mix
Gender Female
Impound Date: 8/23
Ledger #: 18384
Why Choose Me?
"This honey pie is one silly little girl! She was so happy to be out of
her pen that she didn't know what to do first, so all she could do was wiggle in
every direction at once. We were lucky to even get this blurry picture of her
face! She's just a little bit shy about being in this crazy place, but that's
to be expected of any dog, especially one as young as Wiggles. She needs a
family to give her lots of love and lessons on how to channel her energy into
fun and games. She'll love it and will be a great pupil."
Name: Roxanne
Age: 3 years
Breed: Pitbull
Gender Female
Impound Date: 8/23
Ledger #: 18393
Why Choose Me?
"Roxanne is a nice, calm girl with lovely manners and an absolutely
beautiful brindle and white coat. Her brinding is an especially rich black and
mahogany color. She's a fairly small girl who doesn't seem to know that she
could be pretty strong if she wanted to be. Fortunately she appears more
interested in being nice dog than a strong dog. She will quietly and seriously
come up to the door of her kennel when you visit, and if you give her your hand
to sniff, she'll lean forward and try to give you a kiss through the chain
link. A pretty girl with nice manners. What more could you want from a pitbull?"
Name: Tiny
Age: 3 months
Breed: Boxer mix
Gender Female
Impound Date: 8/24
Ledger #: 18403
Why Choose Me?
"This poor little thing was found covered with ticks and fleas. That's
enough to make any young puppy feel kinda pooped out. Miss Tiny has been treated
with flea and tick preventative though, so she should be perking up very soon.
At the time of her photo shoot, she preferred to continue to rest and
cuddle with a stuffed toy that was three times her size. (She actually looks
bigger in the photo than she really is.) By the time you come to the pound to
see her though, she'll be prancing up a storm."
Name: Josh
Age:
Breed: Lab/Cocker mix
Gender Male
Impound Date: 8/24
Ledger #: 18402
Why Choose Me?
"Josh looks just like a cocker spaniel, but without the long, wavy
locks. He's a little fella, but he's strong and he loves to explore. He's also
got that thick, loose skin that is so fun to play with! Kinda like having a
playdough dog. His impound sheet says he may have obedience training, so he
must have done something to impress his arresting officer!"
Name: Minnie
Age: 6 months
Breed: Husky/Golden Retriever
Gender Female
Impound Date: 8/25
Ledger #: 18408
Why Choose Me?
"This is one cute puppy! She's got the golden color of a retriever, but
the only husky-looking thing about her is her one china blue eye. Minnie is
only 20lbs at six months old, so she won't be a very big dog, certainly not
husky or retriever sized. She is silly, affectionate and quite gentle for a
puppy. She loves to play with other dogs and flips right over for belly rubs.
She's got a little leather color with studs on it, which is a cute contrast to
her cuddly personality. She misses her family, but if they can't find her,
she'd love to go home with you!"

Why Choose Me?
"Hi there! I am a tiny little guy who really wants to be around people. I'm
very talkative and love to cuddle. Please adopt me because it is really scary in
here for a puppy so little and
young. I need a mommy or daddy to take care of me, maybe

Impound Date: 7/8
Ledger #: 18135 and 18136
Why Choose Me?
"When we're in our kennel, we like to bark at the big dogs and pretend we're
fierce like the big dawgs,
but when our visitors took us out to play, we were friendly and sweet. We love
to play with people and
each other because after all, girls just wanna have fun! Please come play with
us and we'll be yours

Name: Precious
Age: 6 years
Breed: Terrier/Spaniel mix
Gender Female - Spayed!
Impound Date: 7/9
Ledger #: 18143
Why Choose Me?
"I'm an obedient, loving girl with a white plume on the end of my tail. I kept
my cage nice and clean for the workers here, so as not to bother them, and only
use the potty when
someone lets me out. I'm, dog of the week because I am so sweet and calm and am
also house broken and leash broken, so you don't have to worry about training me
at all!"
------------------------------------------
Name: Darla
Age: 1 year
Breed: Rottie mix
Gender Female
Impound Date: 7/7
Ledger #: 18128
Why Choose Me?
"I need a major miracle to happen, but time is running out oh too
quickly. You see, I've been here a while, so any day could be my last day. I
don't know how I got missed during the last photo session, but it may be because
I'm such a nice quiet gal who sits patiently for my turn, I was overlooked.
Today's volunteer took a liking to me because she's got a black and tan mix
herself and highly recommends them! Although my sheet says I'm a Rotti mix,
I may be more like a Dobie mix since I'm sleek and weigh in at a petite 40
pounds. I've got a gorgeous coat of silky black fur that is not high
maintenance in the least bit. Plus I'm as sweet and friendly as they come.
I'll take a treat so gently from your hand and when I'm excited to see you I
just wag my tail rather than jump on you. Surely my angel is out there ready
to rescue me -- could it be you? Please hurry; the clock is ticking!!"

Name: Gizmo
Age: 6 years
Breed: Pekinese/Terrier mix
Gender Male-Neutered!
Impound Date: 7/15
Ledger #: 18171
Why Choose Me?
"Boy, has my life been turned upside down! I've been surrendered and I don't
know why. My sheet says that I'm friendly, good with kids, housebroken,
leash-broken, and know simple commands like 'sit'. Plus I've lived with other
animals, including a dog, cat, and ferret, so I should easily adapt into a new
home. And get this - I'm already neutered and microchipped! Surely you have
room for a little 20 pound fluffball of a guy. Please hurry in to save me!"
--------------------------------------
Name: Buttercup
Age: 2 years
Breed: Lab mix
Gender Female
Impound Date: 7/13
Ledger #: 18162
Why Choose Me?
"Sadly enough, I'm an owner surrender, which means I don't have much
time. My owner said she could 'no longer keep me' but that's difficult for me
to understand. I guess her loss is your gain since I'm already housebroken, I
enjoy car rides, and I lived with other animals and five children so I'll surely
adapt easily into your home! I'm just a friendly, loveable girl who aims to
please... and apparently entertains. The volunteers got a kick out of my tail,
calling it the 'energizer tail' because it kept going and going... as you can
see from the blur in the picture! Adopt me and you're guaranteed to see lots of
my 'energizer tail'!"
Name: Josie
Age: 8 weeks
Breed: Spitz mix – So cute!
Gender Female
Impound Date: 7/16
Ledger #: 18175
Why Choose Me?
"I'm just a tiny tot who arrived as the volunteers
were walking out the door. I'm barely old enough to be away from my momma,
so I'm really depending on you to be my new mom or dad. I'm at the perfect
age to absorb all the training you provide in order to become your perfect
companion. I'll most likely stay fairly small but there's no question that I'll
be super sweet!"
Name: Ziggy and Marley
Age: 3 months
Breed: Collie mixes – Floppy ears and sweet face!
Gender Male/female
Impound Date: 7/10
Ledger #: 18151 & 18152
Why Choose Me?
"We are two of the sweetest pups around and close runners up for 'Dog of
the Week' since we've been here a while with absolutely no applications.
When the volunteers carried us to the pen to play, we made sweet music (that's
what we call those cute little puppy grunts and whines)! And although you can't
see it in the pictures, we've got a shimmer of gray in our fur that makes us
look oh so beautiful. We haven't had much attention from humans in our short
lives, but we sure think it's a wonderful thing! We enjoyed playing ball and
just being cuddled. And since we pottied when we were let out of our pen,
we are well on our way to being housebroken and the perfect pooches for your
family. Come see for yourself!"
---------------------------------
Name: Jewel
Age: 2 years
Breed: Boxer mix
Gender Female
Impound Date: 7/10
Ledger #: 18154
Why Choose Me?
"I got here in time to go to Grace's birthday party last week and really enjoyed
the outing. I sure hope there are lots more outings with my new family in the
near future. After all, I'm fully grown at 35 pounds, making me perfectly
portable! I'm such a friendly gal who is playful and entertaining. I danced for
treats, which is why I'm licking my chops in the picture! And I pottied when I
was let out, so you know what that means -- yep, I'm most likely housebroken.
You couldn't ask for a sweeter gal!"
----------------------------------
Name: Mabel
Age: 7 years
Breed: Boxer mix
Gender Female-Spayed!
Impound Date: 7/12
Ledger #: 18157
Why Choose Me?
"I think I'm in a bit of a pickle here. Seems as though there's been an
attempt to find my owner, but the phone number has been disconnected. If my
owner doesn't find me soon, I'll need a new owner to love and
adore. Sure I may be seven years old, but I've got the energy of a gal
half my age. Plus I'm already spayed, so I'll save you money right from the
start! And the clincher to you adopting me is my cute little crooked mouth,
which wasn't quite captured in this photo so that means you must pay me a visit
and see for yourself. When I close my mouth my lower right tooth pokes out --
too cute! One look at me and all your cares will go away."
Name: Socks
Age: 6 months
Breed: Boxer mix
Gender Female
Impound Date: 7/13
Ledger #: 18159
Why Choose Me?
"Have you noticed how many boxer mixes there are this week? You know what they
say about us boxers, that we make gentle, affectionate family dogs. And that is
the 100 percent truth about me! I enjoyed the attention so much, I would
quietly nudge an arm or a hand to get it to pet me some more. I was so
gentle taking a treat from the volunteers hand, as the picture shows. And the
reason for the treat? Because I was being the cuddly sweet girl that I am.
The physical attribute that sets me apart from the other boxer mixes here
this week are my cute little white socks! So when you come to visit me, just
look for the socks and the sweet face and there I'll be, ready to go home with
you!"
Name: Cindy
Age: 1 year
Breed: Shepherd mix
Gender Female
Impound Date: 7/13
Ledger #: 18161
Why Choose Me?
Mindy and I were found together, so it's very likely we are sisters. We
look identical and act nearly identical, but I'm a little more outgoing and
trusting than Mindy. And I'm smart enough to know to potty when I'm let out as
to keep my pen nice and clean. Seems as though we had a family once, but they
probably didn't have much time for us. We have matching makeshift collars, but
they are awfully big and bulky - not fit for dainty gals like us. Won't you
please adopt us and show us what family life is all about?"
Name: Mindy
Age: 1 year
Breed: Shepherd mix
Gender Female
Impound Date: 7/13
Ledger #: 18160
Why Choose Me?
"I look nearly identical to Cindy, so we're most likely related. Plus we have
matching makeshift collars that are as wide as our necks and fastened with wire
that could easily get snagged. Gosh, a real dog collar isn't that expensive and
would be so much more comfortable. Not to mention getting an ID tag is easy and
inexpensive as well. Although I was a little too shy to get out of my pen
today, my confidence is slowly boosting. I'm a submissive girl who would do
whatever it takes to please you, if given the chance. Won't you please give
me that chance?"
----------------------------
Name: Midnight
Age: 8 weeks
Breed: Lab mix
Gender Female
Impound Date: 7/14
Ledger #: 18164
Why Choose Me?
"I'm just a cute little bundle of sweetness! I long to sit in your lap and
cuddle, although surely there's a playful side to me as well - afterall, I am
part black lab! Us labs are such devoted family pets. In fact, I'll make a deal
- you take me home with you and I'll show you just how devoted us labs are!"
Name: Cinnamon
Age: 4 months
Breed: Boxer/Basenji mix
Gender Male
Impound Date: 7/15
Ledger #: 18166
Why Choose Me?
"You may think I get my name from the color of my coat, but it's actually from
the way my tail curls up, resembling a cinnamon roll! Too cute! I'm a friendly
little guy who weighs 40 pounds, so I do have a bit more growing to do, but I
won't get too big. I have the softest fur, which is perfect for cuddling. I'm
incredibly friendly and outgoing, which is right in line with the Boxer and
Basenji personality - what a winning combination!"
Name: Maxwell
Age: 3 months
Breed: Golden Retriever mix – Sweet & cute!
Gender Male
Impound Date: 7/17
Ledger #: 18179
Why Choose Me?
"Oh boy, Animal Control is just full of puppies this week...but I'm the
fluffiest of all of them! I'm just a little
Fuzz ball of love and fun! When I came out of my pen today, I immediately
tracked down a tennis ball and started playing
with the volunteers. I would make a wonderful friend and playmate for you!
Please come rescue me soon!"
-------------------------------------
Name: Ginger
Age: 2 months
Breed: Golden Retriever mix - Very cute!
Gender Female
Impound Date: 7/19
Ledger #: 18183
Why Choose Me?
"I'm the sweetest 10 pounds of love you could ever hope to meet! Of
course I'm only 2 months old, so when I grow up
there will be even more love to go around! I am not only friendly but also very
brave... a lot of other dogs at Animal
Control this week are a bit afraid of this strange noisy place, but not me!
I'm too young and precious to die here...
please come rescue me before it's too late."
-------------------------------
Name: Quincy
Age: 4 months
Breed: Beagle mix
Gender Male
Impound Date: 7/20
Ledger #: 18188
Why Choose Me?
"I may not look much like a beagle, but my sheet says that my mom was a
beagle... whatever other breed I'm mixed with, I'm a very sweet and gentle
fellow! I'm a bit afraid of this scary place, but you would be too if you were
here all on
your own. All I need is someone to show me some love and let me know everything
is alright... after just a little
attention today from the volunteers, I was already more confident and happy.
Won't you come adopt me? I promise you
a lifetime of love and devotion!"
----------------------------
Name: Charlie and Clyde
Age: 4 months
Breed: Hound/Shepherd mixes
Gender Males
Impound Date: 7/20
Ledger #: 18189, 18190
Why Choose Me?
"Obviously we have not been treated very well in our short lives... we
were too shy and afraid to come out of our pen
today to be photographed. But we did enjoy being quietly petted and
reassured... we're very good natured and hungry
for affection! We are siblings and get a lot of comfort from being together, so
if you have room for both of us, that
would be great! But if not don't let that stop you from saving one of us...
we'd rather be adopted separately than
die here together. Please come see us soon!"
--------------------------
Name: Leah
Age: 1.5 years
Breed: Retriever/Spaniel mix
Gender Female
Impound Date: 7/17
Ledger #: 18178
Why Choose Me?
"It's apparent this sweet girl has recently had puppies, even though she's
barely older than a puppy herself. Won't you
come spend some time with this friendly, leash broken jewel of a dog? If you
do, you'll have a hard time leaving without
her... she'll make an ideal friend and family member!"
--------------------------------
Name: Archie and Frank
Age: 3 months
Breed: German Shepherd mixes
Gender Males
Impound Date: 7/17
Ledger #: 18180, 18181
Why Choose Me?
"Looking for a double dose of fun and companionship? As you can see from
our photos, we take the job of romping and
playing very seriously! We're both friendly and leash broken and would make
great family members. If you can't take us
both, don't let that stop you from adopting one of us... Even just one of us can
supply you with many years of love and
friendship!"

There are so many wonderful dogs that come to this and other shelters just
waiting for the right person to take them home. The sad thing is, most of these
dogs never meet that special person.
Due to such a high overpopulation problem, dogs at these shelters are only
allotted a short amount of time before they are euthanized. Please find it in
your heart to help and spread the word!
