George was found living on his own with his sister, Gracie(adopted). He is a young guy, probably around one and 1/2 years old. Both dogs are super sweet, well behaved and just LOVE affection. We aren't sure of their lineage, but they are the most beautiful red color.

George is to be indoor dog with a fenced yard for play. He is already housetrained! He is a small dog, weighing 30 pounds full grown. He has been neutered.

George is a super-sweet dog that loves people almost all other dogs, but he must not be allowed around cats. He wants to chase them (and practically all other small animals) and wouldn't know that he was playing too rough with them.

As 2009 begins, Prince has matured into a smart and handsome adolescent. He likes his chew toys, squeaky toys and chasing a ball. He understands that “potty” is done outside and knows all about doggie doors, but foster mom still makes sure he goes out regularly so he won’t wait too long and forget. After all, he’s a very busy boy with a lot of playing to do! Prince is also food-oriented, which makes it easy to get his attention. He knows “sit” “down” & “leave it” (that’s a hard one!), and sometimes “off.”

Prince gets along well with the other four dogs in his foster home, but deserves a home with fewer dogs where there is less competition for attention.

Prince is neutered, current on vaccinations & preventives, and even microchipped! He’s now ready for a home where he can be loved and spoiled like royalty! If you or perhaps someone you know would like to meet or consider adopting Prince, please use the e-mail address below.

All they want is a lot of loving.

Please save Domino, he's waiting on you.

He is very well behaved, he plays with his toys and doesn't chew anything else, which is good. He is getting pretty good on a leash, he loves walks. He is picking things up very quickly, he is a really good dog. Mack is up to date on his shots, 4-5 months old, neutered, and on Revolution for fleas and heartworm prevention. He is a true Heinz 57, we have no idea what breed he is. He is unique in his own way. He would be great with kids due to his sweet temperament. He is going to be a larger dog, being at 38 lbs. already. He would make a wonderful inside family dog. A fence will be required for play time.

If you would like to meet Mack, please contact Linda at the address below.

Blue is the kind of pup who wants to be with you all of the time. He will help take out the trash, work in the yard, clean the house, he just wants to be your shadow. Then, when it comes to the end of the day and you are watching television or working on the computer, he has his big head in your lap and look up at you with those big gold eyes.

Blue is an active dog. He loves to go for walks, play fetch, he would be a great running companion. He has a lot of energy. He isn’t hyper, but he doesn’t like to sit still either. He is very curious about everything and likes to be busy. He is an observant dog, nothing gets past him.

Blue is crate trained, house trained and picks up commands pretty quickly. He loves other dogs and is pretty good about cats, curious, but he won’t hurt them. For a dog his size, he is really gentle and a big goof ball. He would be a wonderful family dog, especially one that is active.

Blue is current on all of his shots, is neutered, heart worm negative and on heart worm and flea prevention. A fenced back yard is required for play time. FCDF requires a vet reference, home check, contract and adoption fee.

Eventually, Miss Daisy was offered temporary housing (which she accepted, very kindly). The folks who ran the housing quarters began to take notice of what a beautiful girl Miss Daisy was. She was/is young, slim, petite ears and a cute, little, pink freckled nose. My goodness . . . . Miss Daisy was a winner . . .if she had any manners at all . . . she could go to the "Ball". Lo and behold, after "speaking" extendedly with Miss Daisy, she was found to carry herself very well, appreciate people and their friends, be they two legged or four. She, also, just looooves for you to drive her around in your perfectly polished automobile on a leisurely Sunday afternoon. Who knew this perfect Southern Belle could be found in such a place.

Miss Daisy, having passed all the social graces, moved on to the just as important but highly embarrassing health issues. Everything was found to be in perfect order saving her inability to become a Mom. Given that bit of unsettling information, Miss Daisy elected to have all her vaccinations while she was at the clinic . . . . why, well just in case she might want to travel to Europe, of course..

We persuaded a dashing young man with a camera to take this picture of Miss Daisy just after one of her recent beauty appointments. Today, Miss Daisy is lunching, with her dearest friend Melody, on the back porch of her friend's home in Alabama. They are having mineral water and biscuits. She instructed me to take a message for her in case you called. She would never want to miss an interview for any position she was qualified to fill.

You may reach Miss Daisy at the address below. . . she hopes y'all are having a perfectly lovely summer. Please do not hesitate to contact her, anytime.

Hi My name is Gilligan. I was found and deserted at the BP parking lot in Heflin, AL. A nice lady saw me when she was getting gas and scooped me up to take me home. I didn't fight her, I wanted to go. I was so hot and so hungry, I was eating from a trash can and finding shade under the temporarily parked cars. I fell fast asleep in the nice lady's air conditioning on the ride home!

I am a very good boy. I love other dogs and cats and even LOVE children. I am very gentle and am well mannered. I may need a little help with leash training but I am housebroken and crate trained! I get so excited meeting new people, I just wag my whole body! Please ask about me, I would love a home to call my own.

Gilligan is UTD on all vaccines and heatworm preventative and is already neutered.

For further questions about Gilligan please contact Kristi at the first address below for an application or his foster mom Natalie at the second address if you have further questions about his personality & house manners.

CiCi had a severe case of kennel cough that she contracted in the shelter. She has recovered completely and is certainly not sick, but she does have a residual cough. The vet thinks that she may have some scarring of her trachea, and she may or may not eventually get over the cough. She does not cough constantly, just intermittently, usually when she gets excited.

CiCi is up to date on all her immunizations, is heartworm negative and on preventative. She will be spayed and have her teeth cleaned on Tuesday June 16, after which she will be ready for her new home. She appears to be housetrained but will, of course, need reinforcement in a new environment.

Daisy is a young female, Pit Bull puppy. A beautiful Brindle color, her tail has been docked. She lives with 3 other dogs and 2 humans and gets along very well with them, everyone is her play toy, but she is eager to mind. She has been both inside and outside with no problems, and eats along side the other dogs. She and another dog even sleep together.

Daisy needs to be with a family that can spend more time with her in training and bonding with her. Please give Daisy a chance for her forever home. This is a chance in a life time to have a wonderful young dog that will grow up to be your best friend. Daisy will need to be spayed and there are coupons out there to assist with the costs.

Just send an email if you are interested in this great dog.

He was a rescue dog that has lived with a family for 3 years as a family pet. However, one of the children was recently diagnosed with allergies and asthma and they are unable to keep him. The love him and want to find him the perfect "forever" home.

Murray loves to run and chase squirrels, but would need a nice sized fenced yard to play. He only barks if strangers approach without the owner, so he is a great watch dog. He howls when he hears sirens. Murray loves to be inside but is content outside as well. He is great with other pets and would probably love a companion. He is good with kids, but he jumps up when he wants to play, so he may not be good for small ones.

Please contact the owner at the address below if you would like to bring home this sweet dog to love!!!

Otis was found as a puppy in a trash bag in a cemetary. His rescuer who found him took him in even though she had many pets already of her own. She needs to find Otis a home where he can get more one on one attention and who can give him more than what his owner is able to provide for him at this time. She has had to downsize recently for financial reasons and is unable to keep him any longer.

He is UTD on all vaccines and heartguard. He is a very gentle, sweet laid back guy who loves attention. He is afraid of some loud noises and some men. He may do best in a low key or quiet home with a single female or older couple. He is housetrained and crate trained.

Please come meet Otis and consider him to be a part of your family. Please contact Jesslyn 205-296-6025 OR Jerry at 205-283-4725 if you are interested in meeting, fostering or adopting sweet Otis.

Chili is playful and would love to have a friend to play with (the dogs at my house do not like puppies!). Like most puppies, one of his favorite things is to steal your houseshoes, your socks, or your underwear! He likes to make panty raids on the dirty clothes basket! But while he is stealing your belongings, he will steal your heart.

Hope is all ready for a forever home. She's happy, playful and would make a wonderful pet for an active family. She likes other dogs and LOVES people. She's a sweet, good girl.

What Daphne needs:
Spay
Shots
A large yard (preferably fenced)
Lots of love

Daphne is a typical lab puppy - very excitable and playful. Unlike most dogs of her breed, she doesn't like to play in water. She's becoming a pretty good watchdog. She likes to chase our cats, but is not vicious with them. She knows sit and lay and will cheat sometimes - doing it before you command if she sees that you have something she might want. Plays well with older kids. She could probably benefit from obedience school to learn manners. Daphne is very affectionate - she's easy to get attached to. Maybe you'll fall in love with her as much as we have and be able to provide for her needs better than we have been able to. Perfect X-mas present for a mature child that's tough enough to handle a big dog.

After getting checked up and having all the necessary shots and surgery, we found these beautiful dogs a home. Unfortunately, the person wasn't aware of all the responsibilities in caring for dogs and she ended up having them boarded most of the time. She has since left them in our care and the care of others.

They are given lots of love and nourishment and look great. However, they are still being boarded at a kennel as we already have seven dogs at our house and simply have no more room.

Lucy is a boxer mix and is sweet as can be. Whenever she's happy she starts hopping back and forth on her front paws!

Rilo is her best friend. He's a lab/pointer mix we believe. Very gregarious, loves to romp around. They are very good around people and other dogs. Please make them part of your family. You will get so much more back in love from them.

Lucy wandered to our house on Friday September 25th. We live on a dimly lit road in a small town that is a target for neglectful dog owners to drop off their pets when they don’t want them. Tragically there is a cliff on one side of this road that is at least a 40-foot drop (tragically some neglected dogs have fallen).

Lucy was lucky to wander up to our house and is a very sweet and loving dog, SHE IS HOUSE TRAINED and is definitely an INSIDE DOG.

Lucy loves to pile up on the couch and watch ANDY GRIFFITH reruns on TVLAND. She is socialized with other dogs and plays well in the crowd. LUCY appears to be a Yellow Lab mix and is likely 3-4 years old. She loves to run, play and jump around like a happy dog should. LUCY does have an excitable streak and likes to jump when you come home but that’s probably from all the love she has to give. She just needs someone to work with her on that.

We’re trying to find a home for her so she won’t have to go to a shelter. If you or someone you know would like a companion to share those cold winter nights with, Lucy will take the job!

If you’d like to meet Lucy or if you are already in love with her please email the address below to meet her.

Both dogs are short haired. Anna, the one with the darker markings is a foxhound, possibly a mix. She's very calm, easy going, and affectionate, but she doesn't beg for attention. She loves to play with her best friend, Shiloh. Anna is the easiest dog we've ever cared for, very low maintenance. Inside, she's happy just to sit on the sofa or floor. Our vet thinks she's 2 years of age and weighs 34 lbs. Housebroken, is easy to bathe and overall just a joy.

Shiloh is a canaan mix with the cutest, most expressive ears you'll ever see. She's extremely affectionate, but like Anna, isn't demanding. Initially shy around strangers, she warms up quickly. Like Anna, she loves car rides. Shiloh is also about 2 and weighs 30 lbs. Also housebroken and no problems inside or out.

These are sweet dogs that would make a wonderful pair for someone. They pretty much entertain themselves. We see no separation anxiety or destructive habits. As our vet said, you won't find better dogs anywhere. Both girls are up to date now on all their shots and have been spayed. A $100 adoption fee and ID microchip is required for each although if they were placed in the same household it would be only $150 and the microchips.

We are trying to find a good, permanent home for this sweet dog. He is dog and people friendly. He lives in his owner's backyard and has not been an inside dog so he is not housebroken. However, there is no reason to believe that he could not be housebroken if someone had the time to work with him. We do not know how he interacts with cats.

If something happens to the elderly caretaker, her family have promised to put Blackie to sleep.

Please help us find Blackie the home he deserves. He doesn't deserve to die because the only person who loves him passes on.

This dog lives in Tuscaloosa, Alabama.

This precious boy had found a home with an elderly man. The man said he found George on the side of the road when he was just a tiny pup. George was all alone with no Mama and no siblings. George was tiny, starving, and scared to death.

The man took George home and fed him and wrapped him in a blanket. When he began to feel better, he let little George play with his Shih Tzu. George and the Shih Tzu became inseparable (remember little George had lost his Mama). Sooooo, now, I guessing you know the end of this story . . .

Yep, sweet little George kept growing and growing and growing. . . . I guess not knowing what else to do when George became too big to play with the little Shih Tzu, the elderly man just took George to the shelter.

So George is alone, again. He has lost his Mama, his brothers and sisters, his best friend and his home in just a few short months. Life has not been looking very good for George, lately.

If you would like more info on George, please contact his friend at the address below.

George - Lab/Dane/Pittie mix PUPPY
7 months old
Neutered male
Current on vaccs.
Heartworm neg.

I posted signs, called the shelter multiple times, radio stations, had them checked for chips and no one has come forward to claim them. So they need good homes. I have been calling them "the boys" but have now started calling them "Willie" and "Waylon".

I am taking them to the vet tomorrow for shots, de-worming, etc. and they seem to be in good health and as beautiful as they are I must find good forever homes for them.

She's very playful and has a bundle of energy. I think she would be good with a family with kids, but ones that are big enough to run with her. I would prefer her to go to a home with a fenced yard since she tries to strangle herself when on a zip line, trying to get to you to get some love. She still needs a little fattening up and a bath for sure, but other than that, she's a beauty.

Luckily for Mick, being an animal rescuer, I found him and took him in here at Red Gate Farm. His estimated age at that time was approximately 9 months old according to my vet. Sadly, due to the large number of rescue animals I have in residence (29), Mick has been kept in a kennel situation (with daily play yard privileges) while awaiting his forever home and owner for almost 2 years now!

Poor Mick had a recent potential adopter who has had second thoughts so we're both a bit disappointed but you can't get a good dog down (see his pic, just look at that face!).

Mick is a little bit shy to start but warms right up and loves his human caretakers attention so it's not too late for Mick to bond with someone new. Mick prefers human companionship to other dogs company so would do well in a one dog home where I am sure he would totally idolize a new, loving attentive owner. Mick's smart too! He learned to sit and shake in less than 5 minutes flat. He leashes well and rides unrestrained.

*Unfortunately, being kept in a kennel situation, it is unknown if Mick is housetrained but I am sure he'd be more than willing to learn and happy to please his owner!*

Mick is a liver & white (possible) Aussie/border Collie mix weighing 40-45 pounds. He is up to date on vacs/worming, is heartworm negative and on HW preventative. He is scheduled for neuter/teeth cleaning/post-op bloodwork and urinalysis tomorrow so he'll soon be ready to go to a new home!

Adopt fee, application, vet/3 references and homecheck for proper containment is required.

All are solid black and four months old. They have a great Mom, Yellow Lab (Trained as a duck hunting dog for a short time), that got caught by a Rottweiler. The puppies have been wormed and given first round of shots. I will be happy to bring the puppies to anyone willing to give them a good home. There are two males and three females. I REALLY NEED SOME HELP, THESE ARE OWNED BY MY SISTER-IN-LAW AND SHE CAN'T AFFORD TO KEEP THEM NOR CAN SHE GIVE THEM THE CARE AND LOVING THAT THEY NEED.

Several of these dogs shared my husband's office space, and all have exhibited good personalities and love of people. For this reason we feel they would make excellent family pets, and would shower a new owner with the gratitude and love that only a rescued animal can give.

All dogs have been spayed or neutered, and are current with all shots, medications, etc. A fenced yard or an owner who is willing to walk on a leash is needed.

The dogs include:

• Angel, a very blond, golden retriever, female
• Tessa (Adopted!), German Shepherd, female
• Laila (Adopted!), German Shepherd mix, female
• Mama Dog, black chow, female
• Purdy, (found near Lake Purdy) German Shepherd mix, female
• Nikki, white/blond golden mix, female (possible White German Shepherd)
• Blue, hound, short hair, Staffordshire Terrier mix, male

Since these dogs were rescues, we don't have any detailed information as to their past; therefore, we've made educated guesses as to their ages and breeds, with the aid of the vets who have seen them.

It is our hope that you will help us find LOVING HOMES for these dear animals.

Interested parties may contact AWAG at the address or phone number below.

We will be happy to answer questions, or schedule a visit to meet one or more of these great dogs.

If you have a fenced yard, and can give some or all of them a wonderful home, then call Dixie at the number below. Vet reference and spay/neuter certificate required.

JJ is not good with small breed dogs, but is fine with larger dogs – there are 3 dogs in his foster home. He definitely needs to be with another dog. He does NOT need to be with kids or a really hectic household.

Help! Our owner died. We have been at the vet's for 3 years!

Two great dogs need a good home. Happy is a Beagle–Jack Russell mix and Puppy is part Australian cattle dog. They are about 8 years old and have been together all of their lives. They must stay together.

Happy is a Type-A personality always ready to walk, run or play. Puppy is much more laid back, but is a willing participant in most activities.

Their previous owner had to give them up due to health and financial problems. She recently passed away. They have been living at the vet's for almost three years. They visit with a family friend several times a week for exercise and fresh air, but cannot go there to live. They cannot go there permanently because there are cats who run that house, and Happy and Puppy firmly believe that cats are for chasing. They have not been around small children in the past, so it is unknown how they would respond to "little people".

They must have a fenced yard to play in, and regular long walks would be very nice.

They are in good health and their shots are up to date.

Although Belle and Lucky are not littermates, they have been together since they were young puppies. They are both a little over three years old, have been spayed and neutered, and all their shots are up to date. They both also have micro chips. Their owner saved them from certain death and loved them a great deal. They have had a wonderful life and adored their owner.

Their lives were thrown into turmoil on August 23rd of this year, when their owner, who was only 35 years old, passed away suddenly of a massive heart attack. Since then they have been in a kennel, and are in desperate need of a kind and loving home.

Belle is a black lab, while Lucky is a mix of lab and rottweiler. Both are wonderful dogs, very affectionate, but are traumatized by their ordeal. They need to be adopted together and by someone who will spend lots of time with them, have a fenced in yard so they can burn off their energy, and be inside dogs.

Our foster mom rescued us from wandering the streets and we're so lucky she found us and gave us a home. But now, due to illness, she is having to take care of her mother and it's really too much work to take care of her and us, especially since her mother's condition won't allow her to be around animals.

We need someone to give us a forever home. We're told that we're both sweethearts. If you can give me and my hearing buddy a new home, please call our foster mom at the number below.

Update
Kayla is still waiting on her forever home. She has been in foster care now for a year, and is hoping that someone will adopt her and give her the love and attention that she so deserves. She is a big, cuddly teddy bear, and is waiting on you :)

A fenced yard is a must for Kayla.

- The first picture is of Flavia. She is the only one with some brown trim.
- The next picture is of Flavia and Monie the other female.
- The third picture is of Joe. He is the most outgoing puppy, and he has a little white in his chest.

The boys are all black, one with curly hair and one with straight hair.The puppies are 6-7 weeks old, very healthy and ready to go to their "forever" home. They have had their initial puppy shots and have been wormed. Only homes with fenced yards will be considered. the mother weighs about 25-30 lbs and the father is "unknown". The mother is a very smart, resourceful dog, and I think these puppies will make great pets.

The mother dog, Sophie, is also pictured. She is young, about a year old, and has been mistreated. It took me 5 months to catch her, even though I was feeding her everyday. She is very pretty and trusting to me, now, she requires patience and understanding. She fed these youngsters with just her milk until they were five weeks old, and they were really fat and healthy when they finally came out of the hole under the building where she was keeping them. She deserves a really special home.

Update
Sophie, the momma dog, is now available for adoption. She has been spayed and is now heartworm negative.
