Available for Adoption

Daisy in South AL

Daisy is availible for adoption!
This sweet 2 blue eyed 7 year old female is looking for a great home. She loves to be an indoor dog and crates well while at work. She has lived with another dog before and enjoyed it. She can be a bit food bowl protective. Daisy is far sighted. She can see squirrels far away, but when it comes to objects near her, they are a bit fuzzy. For humans, we would correct this with reading glasses, but since she is a dog, that's not an option. She recently bit a child right in front of her who she had lived with for 3 months. This unfortunate incident probably occurred, because she couldn't see clearly. She and the child were very close and it was quite upsetting for the family to return her to rescue. So no kids for Daisy! Daisy is good natured, likes car rides, and plays well at a dog park. She does well in a car and likes walks on a leash, but still pulls a bit.

Daisy is UTD on shots, spayed and microchipped and HW neg. and 65lbs.

Cooper in Tallahassee, FL

Cooper is availible for adoption!

Cooper is a 3 1/2 year old OES sheepdog mix (with tail). He is
neutered, microchipped and UTD on shots. Cooper has a high herding instinct and on walks paces back and forth in front and could use probably a gentle leader. He is approx 55lbs. Smaller head than normal sheepdog. He is not good with other dogs and we don't think he will be good with young kids. No cats. Cooper is good with people and likes to sit near you, give paw and is very sweet. When Cooper watches TV (especially football) he goes nuts... so best the TV is up on the wall or in a good case!
Preferred fenced yard. He is very smart and has escaped from fencing before (by moving wooden boards). He should not be outside without supervision. He crates well! A commtment to training is required! He has done well on an electronic collar (per the previous owner).

Samson in Atlanta, GA

Samson is availible for adoption!

Samson is almost 7 months old. He came to our rescue when he was 5
months old after he had been bounced around to 3 homes via craigslist.
Each time Samson was put with another dog and while he can get along
with another dog and loves to play, he is extremely food bowl
aggressive and got in trouble at each person's home (a pitt, a mastiff
and a visit to a vet for stitches), before being turned into us.

Samson is adorable, learns well, but can be stubborn and he will need a
home with no kids. Samson is very playful with his mouth and that
includes his teeth. He won't intentially bite unless your hurt him
(for instance when hitting a mat or knot during grooming). When he is
in play mode with other dogs, it includes an open mouth in playful
biting mode too.

Samson has been through some training and will do many things for
treats. He can "place", but we are still working on "stay". He can
"sit", "go potty" and "kiss". He is crate trained (but may bark for a
few minutes before settling down). He is mostly potty trained (if
watched closely and by giving many opportunities to go potty after he
drinks water).

Samson is great at doggy day care and with his energy, it is a great
place for him to tire out. He also loves the dog park where he will
play for hours if allowed. Playing with other dogs is very fun, but
again involves playful open mouthed tugging on other dogs. The other
dogs don't seem to mind too much and love playing with him. A TIRED
PUPPY IS A GREAT PUPPY!

At home, he likes to play fetch the ball, tug and soccer. While the
picture provided is of a confident cat that doesn't let anyone bother
her, the other cats do get chased by this dog and stay in hiding alot!
Generally, when calm and chilling out with a rawhide bone, he is at the
foot of the foster mom.

Samson has a healthy appetite, as he is a growing boy and eats almost 6
cups of food a day. He is a large boy and will become a strong large
boy, at least 100lbs one day. For now he is around 55lbs.

Samson will need a strong leader in the family to continuously work on
his training. His new family will have to make him work for everything
in his younger years so that he is a great boy when he is full sized.
For instance right now, he is required to sit for every half cup of
food (because he gobbles and we reinforce the sit command). He learns
well and is treat driven. He will "sit" for every treat.

He has very protective qualities and when in a car will bark at those
on bikes or running on the sidewalk. This may also exist if walking
the dog (although this has not been tested due to foster mom can't walk
the dog due to bad back). Due to his strength, he has been trained
using an electronic caller and it has helped greatly with training.
The collar will go with the dog and a brief training lesson by the
foster mom will be provided.

Samson is UTD on shots, microchipped and neutered. He is located in
Atlanta.

Buddy in Rogers, AR

Buddie has been adopted!

Buddie is a 6 year old owner turn being fostered in Rogers, AR. He was turned in after a divorce and he had been relegated to living in the back yard. He has been through and survived Heartworms (and now is HW neg). He has been neutered and is UTD on shots. He is housebroken too can craves attention and affection. Groomer says he was awesome. We do know Buddie is growly around his dog bowl and bone aggressive. We think it is best there should be no KIDS under Age 12. We're hoping to find him a place inside a home where people can spend time with him! He is currently living with his foster home that has 3 other dogs. He is Cat Friendly and his foster mom thinks he is one of the sweetest dogs ever and a super fast learner!

Our rescue is helping sponsor this dog, any applications coming through to us specifying Buddie, will be forwarded to MOKAN rescue agency who will be handling his adoption. If you are interested in Buddie, please fill out an application and make sure in your notes you state you are interested in Buddie.

Piper in Atlanta, GA

Piper has been adopted!

Piper was brought into us as a thin Sheepdog who was turned over to us by a puppy mill breeder. After the breeder found out she couldn't have pups, she sent her on an 18 wheeler with 75 other dogs so rescues could pick her up. Very timid, covered in fleas, and medical issues, she was a handful. After vetting, getting her very infected ears worked on, a bath and some TLC from our foster's Deidre and Sean, she started to learn to trust and be affectionate. After finding a family that did not have young kids, Piper was placed and is very loved. She goes to work everyday, loves to "go for rides" and has become a very loving dog.

Icee in Atlanta, GA

Icee has been adopted!

Icee is a 3 year old, spayed, UTD on shots and microchipped girl. She is super sweet and desperate for attention. She is gentle and is ready to be a part of a family. She and her brother recently spent most of their time away from their family in the basement. She is now being given another opportunity to thrive. She is a kisser! She is being fostered in Georgia.

Maddie in Atlanta, GA

Maddie has been adopted!

Maddie is a sweet 18 month old, spayed female OES. She came to us as an owner turn in because her mother could not afford Heartworm treatment. Such a young dog to have Heartworms (please put your dogs on a monthly preventive to avoid this costly treatment). While her treatment will take approx 6-8 weeks to complete at a cost of approx $800, our goal is to make sure she gets a Heartworm Negative reading before she is adopted. Her treatment begins on 6/14 when she will receive back to back injections and then will need to be kept very calm for the next 4-6 weeks. That's not an easy thing to do with an 18 month old. Maddie is playful and is ok with other dogs, but is a bit challenging around the food bowl. She likes to run and lick her foster sisters mouth alot! She knows sit and is crate trained. She is 90% housebroken. She was previously an outdoor dog and still has an occasional accident inside when nervous or too excited. She is very mouthy with her teeth which means she likes to gnaw on people a bit, but rawhides and bones help deter that. BUT because of her mouthyness and her boucy ways, she will not in homes with any children under 15.

Molly in Atlanta, GA

Molly has been adopted!

Molly is approximately 3 ½ years old. She is small around 65lbs. She is full of energy, but also a luv bug. Molly loves a good lap to cuddle next to or climb on. She is good with kids. She is a big fan of naps on couches, day beds, lazy boys. She crates willingly at nite and finds it as a voluntary hang out during the day.

She can walk well on a lead, but a strong person must be in charge of the lead, but she has a tendancy to want to bolt out the door. She will require a fenced in yard. Preferred ONLY dog. NO cats or small creatures or birds. She rides well, but has an anxiouswhine a portion of the time in the car. She is UTD on shots and will be spayed and microchipped the week of 2/21.
