Yes to dogs, she lived with cats previously and did fine, but we will re-test if a potential home has cats. Good with men/women/kids? Georgia can be shy/reserved when meeting new people/new situations, but she warms up to be very loyal and friendly! She is very food motivated! Personality: Georgia is playful, friendly, and loving. She is very loyal. Georgia was rescued from a kill shelter after being surrendered by her owner's ex. We recently were contacted by the original owner who had been looking for her for a year! She was supposed to be returned to her original owner but after holding her a few weeks, we haven't heard back :(. Georgia is so deserving of finding her FOREVER home! She would do best with a fenced yard or a place to run off leash. She does fine on the leash, but when on a leash, she makes a hacking sound when it pushes on her throat. We walk her on a harness when necessary but haven't found one that doesn't press on the throat area. After a visit to our vet, our vet believes Georgia has scar tissue in her throat from something in her past. It doesn't affect her at all but because of this, we believe a fenced yard or a safe area to run off leash is best for her. The previous owner said she has always done this but it hasn't affected her. Reason for rescue: rescued from kill shelter. Georgia is spayed, microchipped, heartworm negative, and current on vaccinations and preventatives. If you are interested in adding this sweet baby to your family, please message for an adoption application. Adoption fee: $75.
