Dog- Bogart

Name: Bogart
Age: 3 Months (as of August 20th)
Breed: Boxer Mix
Gender: Male

Bogart has known a lot of physical trauma in his short life. He was found in a ditch by Athens-Clarke County Animal Control officers after being hit by a car. As you can see in his pictures, his right foreleg dangled and had sores from being rubbed against hard ground. The trauma of being struck by a car severed all the nerves in his shoulder causing his leg to be useless. Shortly after we rescued him, we had to amputate his arm. But if you ask Bogart, nothing is wrong at all! He is by far one of the happiest puppies we’ve ever met and it’s quite inspiring to be around him. He keeps up with all of the other dogs and will run around like a puppy should. Even though he is not all Boxer, he is 100% Boxer personality! He loves playing with other dogs ranging from his size to about 75lbs (his best friend happens to be Sullivan, another COFAS foster). After some hard playing, he loves to cuddle up to his person and will nap for hours. Because he was still young during the amputation, the vet does not predict any other problems to arise in the future. That being said, there is a chance he could develop arthritis or have to be kept on supplements for the rest of his life. Bogart is an amazing little boy who deserves to live out a great life after everything he’s been through. If you think you can provide him that home, send in your application today!

Dog- Wesley

  • Name: Wesley
  • Age: 4-5 months (as of 8/2010)
  • Breed: Labrador mix
  • Gender: Male

Wesley was pulled from an area animal control along with his brother, Giles. Wesley is stockier than his brother, but they are very similar in appearance and personality. Giles and Wesley are Labrador mixes who retain many of the best features of Labs. They are friendly, affectionate, good-natured people-pleasers. Wesley and his brother do very well with other dogs, too. They look and act like twins but do not beed to be placed together. These two are crate-trained and are working on their housebreaking. They are only 4-5 months old and are very, very leggy with oversized paws; we believe they will eaily become large dogs once full-grown. If you’re looking for a big dog to fill the house with love and laughter, look no further than these sweethearts!

Dog- Chipper

  • Name: Chipper
  • Age: 10 weeks (as of April 7)
  • Breed: Beagle mix
  • Gender: Male
Chipper came to us on opening day of the Atlanta Braves season. He’s a handsome little guy that looks as though he might be part beagle. Although we do not know how large Chipper will be when full grown, we think he will be a medium size dog. All four of Chipper’s legs and Chipper’s face have brindle markings. Chipper is very playful, and has no hesitation in playing with dogs that are five times his size. He loves curling up under the covers to get a backrub, but isn’t pushy when it comes to getting attention. Chipper will be neutered, up to date on shots, micro-chipped, and ready for adoption at the end of April.
