Adoptable (Official) Georgia Dogs for May 17, 2023

Macon Bibb County is offering free pet adoptions this month, according to 13WMAZ.

They say you have to fill out an application with basic information, and the adoption process takes about 30 minutes.

Tracey Weathers with Macon-Bibb says they are hosting the free adoption event because of the increase in animals at the shelter.

“With Spring coming up, we’ve got an influx of puppies and kittens, and so we really need to make room here at our facility, so we decided we would do free adoptions for the month of May for an approved adopter,” Weathers said.

If you’re interested in adopting, you can stop by Bibb Animal Services at 4214 Fulton Mill Road.

They’re open Tuesday through Friday 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. and on Saturday 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.

The shelters hope to encourage more families to adopt dogs or cats that are waiting for their “furever” home.

Tenille is a young female Labrador Retriever and Poodle mix puppy who is available for adoption from Castaways Pet Rescue in Darien, GA.

Hi, I’m Tenille. I’m a very energetic little girl that does great with kids and other pets. I really need activity because I’m super smart! I’m a Labradoodle so you know I don’t shed much, but I do need grooming and brushing occasionally. I am basically perfect, what are you waiting fur?!!!

Lakota Riggs is an adult male Rottweiler & Cane Corso mix who is available for adoption from Castaways Pet Rescue in Darien, GA.

“Kota” is a sweet dog with a very strong personality! He needs a home with no other dogs or cats. Suggest no children due to his size. Owner must use only positive reinforcement training to effectively work with this beautiful boy. He has some basic commands mastered but gets excited easily since he is a young dog. Foster can answer questions for prospective adopters

Ember is a female Affenpinscher mix who is available for adoption from Castaways Pet Rescue in Darien, GA.

As my name indicates, I was rescued from a house fire. I miss being in a home with someone that loves me. I would be great in an apartment because I have the quietest bark!! We think it might be from the smoke inhalation from the fire. I get along well with other animals and kids. I am waiting for a good home, I have lots of love to give!

Ralph is a young male Pointer and American Bulldog mix puppy who is available for adoption from Furever After Rescue in Macon, GA.

Hey there! My name is Ralph and I want to tell you about myself. My foster dad says that I am a “good, solid pup that will follow you anywhere,” and I will! I am happy following my people, my siblings and any of the big dogs or other foster pups. One of my favorite activities is going for walks and play time with my family. When we aren’t going for walks, I love playing running and wrestling with my family, and I love attention from the humans. I love toys too!

Ralph and his littermates are “Heinz 57” babies – we’ve been told that their mom (Smiley) is likely a bird dog / Pointer, mixed with American Bulldog. Others have suggested that she is possibly a Lab mix, perhaps with Beagle or Hound. Or who knows what else. We do know that Smiley is just under 50 pounds, a sweet, loving and social girl. And it seems that Smiley’s babies share their mom’s personality. Ralph and the other pups are completely vetted

Lala is a young female Chihuahua mix puppy who is available for adoption from Furever After Rescue in Macon, GA.

House trained/Crate Trained: Since I am still a puppy, I will have the occasional accident in the house. However, I am doing a really good job learning to potty outside. I am also crate trained.

Dogs/Cats/Children: Good with other dogs; can be tested with cats and children.

Energy Level: Very friendly and sweet. I love to play but I also understand when it is time to relax.

Things I like: La la loves cuddles and blankets. She also enjoys meeting new people and playing with toys.

Fonz is a young male Pointer and American Bulldog mix puppy who is available for adoption from Furever After Rescue in Macon, GA.

Hey y’all, here I am! I’m Fonz, aka Fonzie. Of course you know who the original Fonzie was, right? Well, I’m a lot like him – I’m cool and confident, and everyone admires me. And of course I’m the leader of my pack! But seriously, I’m just a big pup (the biggest of my family) who loves spending time with my friends (aka my littermates). We love hangin’ together – running, wrestling, playing and just being together. I also love being with people (my foster mom and dad are great!) and with the big dogs at my foster home. Fonz and his littermates are likely a mix of American Bulldog and Pointer. They should end up as medium to large sized dogs. (Their mother is just under 50 pounds.)
