Atlas Update

We are very happy to announce that Atlas found his forever home!!!!  Yay, Atlas! We hope you have a great time with your new family.  You deserve the very best!!

Atlas Will Rock Your Universe

A friend of C.A.R.E. asked us to post some information about a dog she is fostering. His name is Atlas, and he is an adorable guy.  How can you look at this boy's ears and not fall in love? How can you look at his face and not smile with him? His brother found a home, but poor Atlas didn't. With those loving eyes, he is sure to be your next best friend.  He came a long way to find a forever home, and he only deserves a loving and responsible one. Only serious inquires please.  Please see original information below as given to us by Atlas' foster mom:

Looking to Adopt a Dog?

Adopt Atlas!
Atlas is a 2 year, 50lb, corgi/husky mix who came from a high-kill shelter down in South Carolina when his family dropped him and his brother off
because they couldn't afford to care for them anymore. His brother got adopted but Atlas had to make the long trip north to spend some time in foster before finding his forever home.

Atlas is an adorable, mellow sweetheart with a sweet face and goofy Gizmo ears. He loves the company of other dogs and would love the company of cats if they wanted anything to do with him. He just stands there and whines at my cat for attention but is not pushy/aggressive in the least towards her. He walks fairly well on a leash and seems to have a good foundation for being fully house trained. He responds well to his name and redirection.

Atlas has a great attitude for undergoing so many different moves in the last few months, and I think he'd do great in almost any living situation. Atlas is available for adoption through Almost Home Dog Rescue. You can read about their adoption guidelines here:
