Leah is a wonderful dog. She is the sweetest thing ever! She is a bit skittish in new situations, and is very scared of the leash, so a fenced yard is an absolute must. She loves playing with other dogs, and absolutely loves children. Leah would do best in a home with another dog and would be great for a home with children. Leah is always looking for a belly rub, loves to gives kisses, and loves to be near her people. She is housebroken and crate trained, but does not enjoy car rides too much. Leah is up to date on all vaccinations, healthy, spayed, and micro-chipped. Age: 2 years Weight: 50 pounds Height: 24 inches
Her adoption fee is $350.

Buffett is a great watch dog. He is crate-trained, housebroken and uses a dog-door. He tends to be rather stand-offish and only comes for cuddling when it's mealtime but he will be devoted to his person. He needs a lot of patience, but did amazingly well in his beginning obedience class. His new owner will need to be the alpha and to continue with his training and socialization. It is best to keep him on a leash whenever new people are around, and we recommend he not go to a home where he will encounter children, either living there or visiting. Because he is so very protective of his person, he gets extremely agitated when noise is made, even in fun. He is great with women but wary of most men. He seems not to like hats, facial hair, etc. honestly there are times when he seems not to recognize me when I have my glasses on my head!! He rides calmly in the car, however he gets motion sick after about a half of an hour, and his foster mom has not yet found anything to help hi

Sheltie Rescue of Ga., Inc. is a non-profit organization, composed solely of volunteers, dedicated to saving Shetland Sheepdogs (Shelties) who have been surrendered by their owners, neglected, abused, or are strays. Established in 1994, SRGA is the oldest and most respected organization of its kind in Georgia. We have placed more than 1100 dogs into permanent homes.
All "Rescued" Shelties are immediately taken to a veterinarian to be treated for any obvious medical condition, tested for heartworms and intestinal parasites, brought current on all shots (including rabies), started on heartworm and flea preventative, spayed or neutered and placed in a loving Foster Home until a suitable permanent home can be found. "Rescued" Shelties come in all ages, colors, sizes and personalities. Rarely do we have puppies under the age of (one) 1 year old.
