Dirt Road Doggies Rescue
Saving family dogs that have been abandoned on rural roads in Northeast Georgia.
Too rescue, rehabilitate, fully vet, and responsibly rehome abandoned dogs in Northeast Georgia.
With a combined total of 30+ years of canine rescue experience, we have formed Dirt Road Doggies Rescue. We are a small canine rescue group located in Northeast Georgia that works tirelessly to rescue, rehabilitate, fully vet, and responsibly rehome wonderful dogs that have been tossed out of cars in rural areas.
All dogs in our program have been previously reported to animal control to ensure they were not lost pups who had a family diligently looking for them. We do not turn a dog away due to breed, health concerns, or age. It is our goal to keep these dogs out of animal shelters, thus saving their lives and providing more time to the dogs already in shelters to find their forever family.

FOSTER/ADOPTER NEEDED ASAP
Oh no, I’m fixin’ to be homeless! Looking for a place to land, preferably at that house in the country with the white picket fence, front sun-basking porch and back yard to play in; but hey, beggars cannot be choosers, so I’ll sure make the best of a Motel 6 for now if need be. I promise to be on my best behavior, and I don’t ask for much. I think humans are neat, but kids are the ULTIMATE NEAT! The angels who saved me said they will supply everything materialistic I need, you’re just in charge of the love and, you know, that day to day stuff, and I would be so grateful.
Banjo is an 8 year old Border Collie/Husky mix. Crate and leash trained, gets along well with other dogs. No cats or chickens – too interested. Nice combination of energy and chill. Loves grooming, back&belly scratches. Food motivated. And did we mention kid motivated….

!!!Sweet Senior Banjo!!!
November is senior month and we have a beautiful super sweet older gent Banjo! Banjo is an 8 year old Border Collie/Husky mix. He's crate trained, walks well on a leash, loves people (especially kids), and gets along well with other dogs. He's the perfect combination of energy and mellow. He enjoys going on walks and keeps a good pace for exercising, but also loves just relaxing next to you and being pet. Banjo loves nothing more than being brushed and getting back scratches. He's very food motivated and loves eating treats as rewards for good behavior. He would make a fantastic companion for someone who wants the love and companionship of a dog, without the high needs of a puppy. Banjo would love to be your new addition! dirtroaddoggiesrescue.org

When Medusa goes outside she takes a deep breath as if appreciating all the fresh air and sunshine. Medusa is an older gal, 9 years old, approximately 55lbs,and a medium sized, stout, gal. We would love to find a lifetime foster or adopter to let her live out the rest of her days. She does need to be the only dog in the home. Medusa is truly a great one that would make a wonderful and loving companion. $300 fee 3 hours from Gainesville , GA dirtroaddoggiesrescue.org
