Large Dogs for Adoption
To find out where and when our adoption days will be held please look at our Calendar of Adoption Days . Each rescue group holds independent adoptions at different locations, so be sure to visit the adoption site of the rescue group that is the holder of the pet you're interested in. However, please realize that not all of the fosters can always be accommodated at each of our adoptions, so if you see a pet you are especially interested in, submit an online application. For information on a pending application, please click on the "contact" link on the specific dog, then click on the "e-mail" link. All applicants will be screened and an adoption fee is required. Pet Orphans' rescue groups do not ship or adopt pets out-of-state and many rescue groups prefer to adopt only in the metro Atlanta area.Please consider participating in our Pet Guardians program , a way to help sponsor an orphan pet of your choice.

Handsome Mr. Jenkins is a young (1-2 year) Pitbull (65 lbs) who was dumpedon a farm as a very thin, frightened dog. He wore an old ragged collar anda choke chain that almost had to be cut off (obviously, he had grown intothese old collars). The couple who took him in did not want a dog anddetermined to take him to their very remote county "pound" where he wouldhave been KILLED or worse: adopted, then possibly chained up, bred, and/orused in fighting. He is in great shape now. He loves the company of many ofthe other dogs in his foster home and has been a really good boy in hisfoster life. Jenkins listens and can be easily corrected w/a firm "no" androutinely comes when called. He has even indicated he would do okw/kitties. Lots really GOOD to say about this very nice dog! Mr. Jenkinshas been neutered, vaccinated, is heartworm-free and is microchipped. Formore information about Jenkins, contact veggiebev@bellsouth.net

Valentino recalls a beautiful admired actor. This Valentino is admirable, too, because he has endured a life that was not so nice to him (note the scars on his face), yet he is about the sweetest fellow this rescuer has met! He is WONDERFUL w/people and treasures any attention he can get. He was tossed into the pound by his family who stated: “…we have too many dogs”… His family didn’t look back or even leave his name. He was a shelter favorite, even when there are so many other dogs there. He was down to his "last day" and this rescuer heard the pleas of the shelter staff and took him in. He is EVERYTHING they raved about and more! He is good w/other dogs but a loner and wants to be 1st in line for people attention. He is between 2-3 yrs old and weighs around 70lbs – a bit chubby – but he thinks he’s gorgeous – so do we. Valentino is neutered, vaccinated, heartworm-free and microchipped. Contact veggiebev@bellsouth.net for more information about Valentino.

Chipper is a 2 year old, Male Neutered, Lab X. He has had all of his vaccinations and is heartworm and intestinal worm negative. Chipper is a chip off the old block, he loves people, very friendly and loves to play. He would rather not share his 59lbs of love and affection with any other pets and therefore would need to be the only pet requiring his masters attention.
