Scotty is a bit of a celebrity, because he was on the news.  Before he was rescued, he was used as a bait dog by a dog fighting ring.  The scars from that life are still present on his body, but he is ready to leave them behind in a new forever home. 

He is an adult male American Staffordshire Terrier mix who is very mellow.  He is full grown, weighing in at about 45 pounds.

His coloring is mostly tan with a white chest and feet.

While Scotty is very sweet and would be a great new family member, it is not a good idea for him to be adopted into a home with another dog, due to his history.

He is up to date on his shots, and he is not an intact male.

To adopt Scotty or find out more about him, e-mail the volunteers at Homeless Pets or call 404.451.9494

   

UPDATE: Dolly has found a home!

   

This is Dolly, and she is about nine months old.  She is a Terrier/Lab mix, who is also pretty young. 

Even though she is still a puppy, she will not get much bigger than her 15-20 pound frame.  Her coat is mostly black with a white patch on her chest, and she has white feet.

She is very sweet, smart, and would be a great addition to any family (Spike's niece is a similar mix and has a wonderful disposition).

Dolly is up to date on her shots, and she has been spayed.

           

These puppies are the last two of a litter of eight.  They were dropped off at a police station in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee the first week of February 2009, and their six siblings have already found home.  They were a day away from being taken to the pound, as the vet where they were taken could no longer keep them.

Age - eight to ten weeks old

Breed - Newfoundland (?)/Lab mixes

Weight - approximately ten pounds, but these dogs will probably be 100+ pounds full-grown

Coloring - Black with white chests and tail tips, with brown "eyebrows"

These puppies have had their first round of shots, been de-wormed, and just had their first baths at the time the pictures were taken and prior to their posting. 

If you are interested in adopting one or both of these brothers, please e-mail danasdoghouse@charter.net.
