Because our fosters work hard to rescue
dogs who sometimes have had rough starts or sad circumstances and start
to socialize them to be loving, trusting, indoor companions, we believe
it is in their best interest to live in homes where they will truly be
part of a family as indoor pets. True members of the family live indoors
and spend quality time enjoying each other. Dogs are social creatures
and thrive on companionship as much as humans do.
We believe that putting a dog outside,
unsupervised, for extended lengths of time is NOT in the best interest
of the dog.
The Fayette Humane Society encourages you
to adopt an animal in need, understanding that our dogs will be adopted
only to indoor homes where they will be a part of the family.
Below is a list of the puppies/dogs available for adoption. If you are
interested in any dog in particular, please fill out the online
Dog Pre-Adoption Form about the dog you have in mind. If you have
any questions or would like to see the pet, email (info@fayettehumane.org)
or call us (770-487-1073) and we will contact you to tell you more about
the pet.
Adoptions: To see many of our dogs at once, come to the PetSmart in
Peachtree City on Saturday afternoons from 12:00 p.m. to 4 p.m. and Sunday afternoons from 12:30 p.m.
to 4:30 p.m. Usually, all pets
can be taken home the day you adopt them after you fill out paperwork.
Sometimes a home visit is required prior to placement. Please stop by
one of our adoptions or contact us for more information. (Please note
that we are not affiliated with the Fayette County Animal Shelter and
you must contact them for information on animals at the shelter. The
phone number for the shelter is 770-631-7210.)
Fee: $150 puppies/dogs unless stated otherwise
(cash or check only).
Adoption fee includes: Spay/neuter, microchip w/registration, age appropriate shots, deworming, flea treatment, coupons provided by PetSmart for discounts on
great items, and a DVD on what to do after you bring your new dog home.
There might be puppies and/or dogs available at the adoptions that have
not yet been posted to the website.

Dave |
Star of the Week
Est. DOB 1/08 |
 |
His foster mom
absolutely adores him!!! Dave is a yellow Lab,
probably between 2 and 3 years of age. He is an
absolute LOVER. He and the large and
medium size dogs in his foster home can't
get enough of tug-of-war games with rope toys.
Dave's past is questionable since he needs a
little more meat on his bones and he cowers when
you raise a hand to just comb your hair or reach
into a cabinet. He also fears his leash so we
don't know what experiences he's had prior to
coming to the FCHS. However, when he goes for a
walk with his patient foster, he slowly comes
around. He still has some puppy issues like
chewing, but when you tell him to stop, he
does. Even with these issues, he loves to be
loved and snuggle with you. He's very playful,
is good in his crate and has a great
appetite! He also has learned "sit and down"
commands. His new family will have to be very
patient with him until he overcomes his fears,
but he is a GREAT DOG and well worth the
effort. He will be a terrific family dog. |
|
Teddy |
DOB
12/20/2007 |
 |
Teddy is a
1 1/2 year old male Pugapoo (Pug and
Poodle). As with a full-blooded poodle, Teddy
will need regular grooming as his hair grows
longer. He will make a wonderful companion for
a family with a laid back lifestyle since he loves
to be a lap dog and couch potato. Older
children suit him best. He would prefer to be
an only dog because he doesn't like to share the
attention. He is up to date on vaccines,
neutered, and microchipped. |

Noel
& Holly |
Est. DOB 8/20/2008
|
 |
At first we thought they might be Shepherd mixes, but their foster mom, who is also a professional dog trainer, thinks they might be "Carolina Dogs" (carolinadogs.org). But whatever name you want to label them with, the facts remain the same. Both girls are very sweet and loving. They enjoy playing with the other dogs in the home and they have been wonderful around children. They bonded quickly in their current surroundings and with their foster mom, are crate trained, know basic commands, love to play with their toys and were very easy to house train. While they are very comfortable in their own environment, they greet strangers very reluctantly at first. For example, when a stranger approaches her, Noel will wag her tail as though she wants to be friends, but you have to earn that friendship. These girls will make wonderful, very loyal and loving pets in a loving home. Holly and Noel have always been together and because of their shy nature, we hope they can remain together. The adoption fee will be waived if the girls can be adopted into the same home. |

Foxy |
Est. DOB
7/3/02 |
 |
This cutie is Foxy. She's a very sweet Sheltie mix. Foxy
is a little shy at first but is a very loving girl who is
looking for a loving family to call her own. It's believed
that Foxy is between 5 and 7 years old which qualifies
her for our Senior to Senior program. She has been spayed,
micro-chipped, her vaccinations are current and she is
heartworm negative. If you are looking for a fluffy little
princess to call your own, please come and meet Foxy.

Tara |
Est.
DOB 11/14/09 |
 |
Tara appears to be a Lab
mix and a fun loving puppy. She and her littermates were abandoned on the side of
a dirt road in January. She loves lots of attention and would be a great addition to a home, even one with another dog.
Tara is current on vaccines, spayed, and microchipped.

Cody (adoption
pending) |
Est.
DOB: January 2008 |
 |
Cody is one of happiest German
Shepherds you'll ever meet. He was previously kept in a
garage alone. His "family" didn't even think enough of
him to give him a name. Just imagine what he has missed,
and yet he is a sweet, but shy, little guy. He is heartworm
negative, up to date on all his shots, and neutered so he's
ready to find out what a really good home can mean to a guy
who deserves nothing less. His ideal home will have
a fenced in yard and no children under the age of 10.
Can you provide what Cody has missed?

Nelly |
Est.
DOB:
1/09 |
 |
Loyal chocolate
Lab seeks someone to love! It only takes a few minutes with
Nelly to realize she's special . Based on Nelly's submissive
behavior, we believe she may have had a difficult past. Nelly exhibits
separation anxiety, possibly because she had been left alone a great deal. She simply wants to be with people at
all times. Nelly would love a home where her people were at
home most of the time. Her home will need either a privacy
fence or large
amounts of land where she could roam safely during
exercise time. Adoption fee: $175. |
|
|
Violet |
Est. DOB
1/09 |
 |
This beautiful 1 year old, 5 pound Chihuahua is Violet. She is very sweet and loves to cuddle. Violet’s perfect home would be with older
children or an adult family. Violet is current
on vaccinations, de-wormed, micro-chipped,
spayed, heartworm negative and already
housebroken. If you are looking for an adorable
new friend, come meet Violet.

Charlie Daniels
(adoption pending) |
DOB
12/17/09 |
|
|
Are you looking for a lovable hound?
Charlie Daniels appears to be a Basset Hound mix. He loves people and would make a
great family pet. When kept to a strict
schedule, Charlie also uses the
bathroom outside regularly with few
accidents indoors. As with most hounds,
he will need a home with a secured yard for exercise time because hounds love to follow their noses
and have a tendency to wander.

Shelly |
Est. DOB 1/08 |
 |
Attention Cocker Spaniel lovers! The Fayette
County Humane Society has the perfect dog for
you! Shelly is an energetic Cocker Spaniel
mix. She absolutely loves everyone...adults and
kids alike! Since Shelly follows commands well,
she would even be suited as a family pet that
has younger children. Shelly is current on
vaccines, spayed, heartworm negative, and
micro-chipped. |

Kimberly
(adoption pending) |
Est. DOB 1/08 |
 |
Meet Kimberly, a
Rat Terrier mix. Kimberly was
found by a
local animal control. When no one came to
claim this sweetie, a FCHS volunteer rescued
her. Kimberly would be perfect for
anyone looking for a lap dog. She gets along
well with other calm dogs and would thrive in a
calm, quiet home. If you're missing a loyal
couch potato to warm your lap, Kimberly might be
the dog for you. |

Miss Lizzy |
Est. DOB 11/09 |
 |
Miss Lizzy
appears to be a Shepherd mix with a rich copper
brown body, a black muzzle and some black in her
tail. Her foster mom found her
February 4 huddled cold and wet in the
yard of a vacant home where people had been living
the week before. She was too thin and had sores
on her body. The vet has started her on "Revolution"
for heartworm prevention, antibiotics, and
medicated shampoo. She is gaining weight and
the sore below her eye is healing slowly. She
must have been kept inside because she panics
when her foster takes her outside. She has no
problems with the cats living in her foster home
when they go through her area and she wants to
play with the other dogs in the home. Lizzy sits
in my lap to watch TV and wants to be around
people. She is very sweet and will be a great
family dog. |

Meet Olivia, a one year old Shepherd mix.

streets, but thanks to the love and patience of

Ike |
Est. DOB:
3/1/09 |
|
|
Ike is a
beautiful
German Shepherd with a loving
nature. He found himself in a bad
situation a few weeks ago when he had an
accident in the kitchen. Ike's previous
family had left a boiling pot of water
on the stove and when Ike came along
like most big breed puppies he wanted to
check out what was cooking. In Ike's
moment of nosiness, he hit the boiling
pot of water and it came down on him.
Ike was in a lot of pain and his owners
couldn't care for him the way that
was needed for this injury. So instead
of having him destroyed, they called us
for help and we are so glad they
did, because this world would have been
a sad place without this amazing dog in
it.
During
all of the stages of care this big guy
has endured, he has always had a wagging
tail and a gentle lick. The vet
believes Ike will make a full recovery
with only minor scars from his
ordeal. Ike will not be ready for
adoption for many weeks, but
pre-adopts will be accepted. PLEASE CONSIDER
MAKING A DONATION TO IKE'S CARE. IT IS
WITH THE GENEROSITY OF KIND
PEOPLE THAT WE CAN ENSURE MANY MORE
ANIMALS WILL BE GIVEN THE CHANCE AT
LIFE. |

all animals, and is housebroken. Dewey needs a
home where he can be someone's everything and
receive the love he should have always had. If you are looking

man. |

This adorable
little guy is Will, a Yorkie/Chihuahua
mix. Will was rescued from a breeder who
surrendered a few of her dogs to FCHS so we
could help thin out her "inventory". Will is about 9 pounds and seems to get
along well with other dogs. He wasn't socialized
as well as he should have been, but will get
better when he gets his forever home. Will is
the most playful little guy and very outgoing. If you
are looking for a furry friend that will bring you
tons of smiles, this is your guy. |

guy and will make a wonderful companion. |

This
adorable little guy is Luke
a Chihuahua/Dachshund mix. Luke was rescued from
a breeder who surrendered a few of her dogs to
us so we could help thin out her
"inventory'. Luke is about 7 pounds and seems to get
along well with other dogs. He wasn't socialized
as well as he should have been but will get
better when he gets his forever home. Luke is a
shy boy and would most likely do best in an
adult home. If you want a tiny adorable friend

Lucas |
DOB: 9/10/09 |

This adorable little guy is
Lucas, a Yorkie/Chihuahua mix.
Lucas was rescued from a breeder who
surrendered a few of her dogs to us

Diego |
DOB:
12/15/05 |
|
|
Diego is his foster family's heart
throb! They absolutely adore this 4
year old, pure bred, AKC registered
Bichon Frise. Diego weighs in at 12
pounds of sweetness. He didn't have the
ideal situation before coming to us. He
was crated the majority of time, but is
doing incredibly well in his new
environment. We are looking for a
loving home that would be everything
this patient and loving little guy
deserves. In spite of being alone much
of the time, he's a happy fellow who
wags his tail a lot and just wants to be
someone's lap dog and bed partner. Even
though he'll occasionally "mark" his
spot, Diego is housebroken. He does
well with other dogs and cats, and
although he's never been around other
dogs, he's not aggressive or fearful.
He also loves to ride in the car so he
can be your companion while at home AND
away. Diego is neutered and up to date
on his shots. We have all his AKC
documents and his entire vet history
that will go along with him to his new
home. Diego would be fine in a home
with children over 6 and one where
someone is home all day to give him all
the love and attention he deserves and
to be sure he won't spend his days
crated again. Because of a required
home visit, Diego must be adopted within
the metro Atlanta area only. His
adoption fee is $250. We promise this
little guy will win your heart, too. |
