Meet Tiny Tim 🩷
(A Dog with a Heart Too Big for His Name)

Hello, I’m Tim but call me Tiny,
Though truth be told, I’m not that whiny.
My legs are short, my spirit tall,
I may be small, but I give it all.

I’ve got a bark that’s soft, not loud,
A gentle soul that’s leash-walk proud.
I’ll greet you with a happy spin,
A wagging tail, a goofy grin.

I like my toys, I love to play,
But snuggles steal my heart away.
A nap beside you? Yes, oh please—
I’m basically a pro at Zzz’s.

I’ve known some roads that weren’t so kind,
But still, I wag—I always find
That hope lives strong in dogs like me
Who dream of who their “home” will be.

So if you’ve got a little space,
A quiet couch, a warm embrace,
A heart that’s open, kind, and true
Tiny Tim would love to live with you.

I promise laughs, some silly zooms,
And loyal love that fills up rooms.
So come and meet me, don’t be shy
Your new best friend is standing by. 🐾

🐾 Boo Update! 🐾
Hi again, it’s me, Boo!
Still waiting… but still hopeful. 💛

Every day, I watch people walk by and wonder, “Could that be my person?” I wag my tail just in case. I’ve been practicing my best “adopt me” smile and perfecting my snuggles for when that special someone finally says, “That’s the one.” 🐶✨

I’ve been such a good boy; walking gently on the leash, giving sweet little kisses, and making everyone here smile. I’m not just waiting for a home… I’m ready for one. A couch to curl up on. A human to follow around. A heart to call mine. 🏡💕

If you’ve been thinking about adding a loyal, loving friend to your life, maybe it’s time we met?

Let’s make magic happen.
Love,
Boo 👻💕

🌷 Buttercup’s Third Post! 🌷

Hi friends, it’s Buttercup checking in 🐾

Every day, I’m growing a little braver. I’ve started exploring more, letting new people give me gentle pets, and sometimes… I even wag my tail without thinking about it. 💛

It’s not always easy being the shy one, but with kindness (and treats 🍖), I’m learning that the world isn’t so scary after all.

I’m still dreaming about my forever home: somewhere quiet, patient, and full of love. I know they’re out there. Until then, I’ll keep blooming at my own pace. 🌼

Thanks for believing in me. 🐶

Post #3:

“I can’t take the noise anymore.”

Sweet Mable has been holding on, but her heart is starting to break. This gentle girl was never built for the chaos of the shelter. Every bark, every clang of a kennel door, it’s too much. She presses herself into the corner, eyes wide, silently pleading for someone to notice her.

She doesn’t ask for much. Just a soft bed. A quiet home. A human to love.

Mable has the kindest soul, and she’s been nothing but patient. But the stress is wearing on her. She’s shutting down. She needs out.

Please, if you’ve ever thought about adopting, now is the time. Mable needs a hero.

💖✨ Third Time’s the Charm: Meet Drizzle! ✨💖

Okay, seriously, how is this girl STILL waiting?!

Drizzle is a whirlwind of love, sugar, and zoomies. She’s the kind of pup who literally melts into your arms for cuddles, then bolts across the yard like she’s training for the Olympic zoomies team. 💨💕

She wants your love, your snacks, your lap (yes, all 40+ pounds of her), and your attention 25/8. She thrives on affection and will follow you around like a tiny, wiggly shadow, just hoping you’ll look her way. 👀💘

Drizzle is:
🌧️ Sweet as syrup
🌧️ Hyped to see EVERYONE
🌧️ Desperate (and we mean DESPERATE) for her forever person

We’re not saying she’ll cry if you scroll past… but she might. 😭

Can we PLEASE get this girl home? She’s been waiting long enough. She doesn’t need much, just a couch, a few toys, and someone who loves her as much as she’ll love them (and trust us, that’s a LOT).

🐾 Still Searching… Meet Oyster 🐾

We don’t know why Oyster keeps getting passed by. She’s been featured multiple times, and each time we hope this will be it but she’s still waiting.

Oyster is energetic, smart, and full of love. She’s the kind of dog who wants to do things:
go for a hike, play in the yard, learn tricks, and then crash on the couch right next to you. Once she gets her wiggles out, she’s sweet, affectionate, and content to just be near you.

She may be hyper when you first meet her, but she’s just a young dog with a big heart and an active mind trapped in a kennel for the last 5 months. And in the right home, maybe yours?She’s going to thrive.

✨ Oyster is:
• Spayed and fully vetted
• Great for an active person or family who enjoys playtime and snuggles.

We believe in Oyster, and we know her perfect match is out there. If you’ve been thinking about adopting, please come meet her. Sometimes, the best dogs just need a little extra patience and someone who truly sees them.

🐾 Say Hello to Rhonda 🐾

Meet Rhonda, a gentle soul with a quiet spirit and a lot of love to give. She’s a beautiful, mellow cat who enjoys the simple things in life—soft beds, cozy corners, and peaceful afternoons.

She’s been waiting patiently—let’s help her find the home she deserves. Come meet Rhonda at the Lumpkin County Animal Shelter!

🚨 SECOND POST ALERT 🚨

So guess what? Our sweet girl Eden (DD) found her forever home! 🏡💛
BUT Ed and Eddy are still waiting at the shelter… 😔

These two goofballs are just as deserving of love and cuddles. Ed is the gentle baby with a heart of gold, and Eddy? Well, he’s the spunky little guy who promises to keep life interesting. 🐾

They’ve seen their buddy get adopted. Now it’s their turn.
Can we make it happen?

Please share! Even one share could lead to their forever home! 💫

🐾 Titan — Yes, He’s Still Waiting. 🐾

Posted AGAIN because somehow… this sweet, calm gentle giant keeps getting overlooked. 💔

Why would anyone say no to this face? Just look at him. 🥺
Titan is the kind of dog who quietly leans in for love, walks calmly by your side, and melts into you like he’s known you forever. He’s not loud. Not demanding. Just… good. Really, really good.

We don’t know why he’s still here, but we do know he deserves better than being passed by. Titan is ready for his forever family — and this time, we hope his post reaches you.

🐾 Jaybird Has Done the Time… When Is It Her Turn? 💔

Jaybird has watched so many dogs come and go. She’s wagged goodbye to friends, welcomed new faces, and waited patiently through it all.

But somehow… she’s still here.

She’s done nothing wrong. In fact, she’s been a total rockstar — loving, loyal, and full of life. She just keeps getting overlooked. And it breaks our hearts. 😔

Jaybird deserves a soft bed, a family of her own, and someone who sees just how special she is. She’s done the time — now it’s time for her second chance.
