Meet our lovely Magnolia! Magnolia was found as a stray, heavily pregnant, emaciated and alone. The day after she arrived she gave birth. Only two of her babies survived, and no one ever came looking for her. She is thought to be about 8 years old, but don't worry , she doesn't care. If you are looking for someone to cuddle with on the couch, or in bed, or literally anywhere she can fit, she's your girl. She is spayed, up to date on her shots and microchipped. She is immaculately housebroken, respectful of other dogs, but since she loves to squirrel watch, she probably wouldn't do great with other small animals. She stays close to her foster and comes when called. If you want a dog that is easy and loving, Magnolia is the one!

If you are interested in meeting Magnolia, please submit an application at animalrescuefoundation.org/adoptionapplication

✨JOIN US!! On A Heartfelt Mission With Big Impact ✨
In a quiet corner of a shelter, where wagging tails wait and hopeful eyes search for home…�Two women—each with a passion for changing lives—are teaming up for something truly special.
One sees stories through her lens—capturing the soul of every dog with a single frame.�The other speaks the language of trust, helping even the most uncertain pups find their confidence.�Together? They’re rewriting what’s possible for shelter pets across the South.
📸🐾 Introducing: Rescue Reimagined�A brand-new workshop experience led by premier pet photographer Shannon Hughes, and expert trainer Lauren Edwards of Serenity K9.
This isn’t just a class.�It’s a movement—created for the everyday heroes in rescues and shelters: the volunteers, staff, and fosters who give everything they’ve got.
We’ll teach you how to:�✨ Handle dogs safely and confidently—even the nervous or wiggly ones�✨ Bring out their true personalities with simple training techniques�✨ Use what you’ve got—natural light, kennel gates, even a patch of grass—to create images that shine
Because when a dog’s story is told with heart, love follows.�And when their light is seen, families come running.
Join us. Let’s help more tails find their forever tales.
🗓️ Workshops coming soon.�📍Perfect for shelters, rescues, and foster teams.
Let’s turn every kennel into a chance, and every photo into a new beginning!

Everybody meet Zadie!! Zadie is an absolute doll!! She is gentle and sweet and is a staff favorite. Zadie keeps her kennel clean, and we think she would be pretty easy to house break. We think she is some sort of hound pointer mix, about 2 years old. Zadie is a gentle girl who loves to give hugs. She would love a home with room to run and/or an active family. She is willing to snuggle just as much as she'd love a good hike or long walk. If you are interested in meeting Zadie, please submit an application at animalrescuefoundation.org/adoptionapplication Please share tonhelp us get this girl home finally!!
