Loved Into Readiness

Our dogs spend time in foster homes before adoption — not kennels. They arrive in your life already housebroken, socialized, and emotionally settled.

Afro

8 +/- Years

Dog • Terrier Mix • Male

URGENT NEED: Foster or Adopter This cute guy is a goofy, silly boy that has lived outdoors his entire life. Angels to the Animals has been helping to care for him over the past 6-7 years, and we estimate his age to be around 8 years old. He is a big boy, weighing around 90 lbs. and is pure love. Afro just wants to be a lap dog! He loves to chase a ball, but isn't so good about bringing it back, but will roll over on it. His owner allowed one of our volunteers to bring him home a couple of nights when we had some pretty severe weather, and he never had an accident in the house. When we have taken him out, he pretty much ignores other dogs, so we can't say for sure how he would do with another one, but would suggest perhaps a low key female as a companion. He does chase cats, so he shouldn't be around them. Due to his size, we suggest no children under teen years. Afro's family has moved into to an apartment, so volunteers and neighbors are now caring for him. He needs a foster immediately. Afro is neutered and up to date on all vaccines and monthly preventatives. We plan to have him bathed and cleaned up before he goes to his new home so he is sparkling and shiny!

Foster Needed

Batman

Older Adult

URGENT NEED: Foster or Adopter Batman was rescued from a life on a chain but still lives outdoors. He's a goofy, older guy with lots of love and life left and is good with other dogs and children. Fully house-trained, he’s looking for an indoor foster or an adopter who doesn't have the feline kind. He'll make you giggle with his wiggles.

Good with Kids

Zula

1-3 Years

Dog • Boxer Mix • Female

Zula is affectionate, athletic, loyal, gentle, quiet and very smart, loves to bask in the sun, play fetch and tug of war, and is great with older children. If you've ever had a Boxer, then you know the joy and laugher they bring. Zula is all that and more! She is also crate-trained and sleeps all night long. Zula needs an active person or family who will play with her and take her for nice walks. She's everything a loyal companion should be. She needs a new foster as soon as possible.

Buddy

<1 Year

Dog • Mixed • Male

New to our rescue but I can't imagine he will last very long! He checks every box but one! He is not yet neutered. But we are getting him scheduled! ✅ 8 mo old, 45.lbs ✅ Beautiful brindle markings ✅ UTD on vaccines ✅ House-broken ✅ Has not been destructive (but does like shoes!) ✅ Does well on leash ✅ Get's alone beautifully with other dogs ✅ Cats unknown ✅ Based on what we can see, he should get along with kids but he is still a puppy so probably older dog-savvy children best Buddy is a sure winner!

Adult

Dog • Chihuahua Mix • Male

Lucy

Lucy

6-8 months

Dog • Pit Bull Terrier Mix • Female

Say hello to Lucy, a charming young pittie mix who has recently become part of the Angels crew. At about 6 to 8 months old, Lucy has already shown her affectionate and playful nature, making her a delightful companion. Lucy came to us September after her previous owner could no longer care for her. She was quite skinny at the time, but with the love and care from her foster Mom, she has blossomed into a happy, healthy pup. Fully vaccinated and soon to be spayed, Lucy is ready to find her forever home. This smart and friendly girl is house and crate trained, and she loves all people. Lucy is kid friendly, but would do best with older kids due to her size and strength. She’s also know the 'No" command is learning to sit on command. Lucy is also working on leash training, showing her eagerness to learn and please her human. Lucy’s favorite activities include playing fetch and enjoying outdoor playtime, but she also loves to cuddle up with her person afterward. Even though she’s playful, Lucy enjoys her downtime just as much as her playtime. Lucy has been taught not to get on furniture or beds and not to jump up onto people, and she doesn't bark much at all, displaying her good manners. She also finds her toys completely irresistible, and will chew them up or pull them apart, especially the stuffed ones. While we’re still learning about her compatibility with other dogs, one thing is certain: Lucy’s affectionate nature and loving personality will make her a wonderful addition to the right family.

Garth

Young

Dog • Hound Mix • Male

Garth's ready for his forever family! His foster says, "On a scale of 1 to 5, Garth's a 5 on crate training, potty and basic commands like 'sit' and 'lay down.' She says when she tells him to 'crate,' he will go right into his crate. His foster finds his leash walking skills okay, but has been working with him on it. She says Garth is very smart and loving. He loves a good belly rub, and is very social. Garth also gets along with her two large dogs. Garth is a puppy, so he a lot of energy. He is kid friendly, but would do best with older kids due to his age and energy.

From Our Adoptive Families

The moment they come home, everything changes. Here's what our families say.

The Gulianello Family

“Axel is the perfect fit — sweet, smart, playful. Our kids, and even our youngest Frenchie, are absolutely over the moon! We're grateful to Angels for trusting us with Axel.”

Shiloh K.

“Waffles started out as a temporary foster while her regular foster was away on a long trip. But as soon as she arrived, she and our youngest pup became instant best friends—truly thick as thieves. Within just a few days, we knew she wasn't going anywhere. She's such an easy dog: goofy, sweet, and someone who finds joy in absolutely everything.”

Wendy P.

“The moment we met Millie, we knew instantly she would be part of our family. She is such a joy – incredibly gentle and loving, especially with my daughter. They play chasing games and my daughter even 'rides' her like a pony. We feel so grateful to have her – she truly is an angel.”

Mollie & Zach B.

“We can't say enough good things about this rescue group. They rescued our sweet girl May, who has become the princess of our family. She's brought so much life and energy into our home—especially for her senior brother, who now acts like a puppy again. We are beyond thankful.”

Common Questions About Rescue Adoption

Everything you want to know before you apply.

How long does the adoption process take?expand_more

Most adoptions are completed within one to two weeks, from application to bringing your dog home. Processing time depends on application review, the home visit, scheduling a meet-and-greet, and completing the adoption agreement. We move as quickly as possible to ensure that every match is right.

Can I adopt if I rent my home?expand_more

Yes! Many of our adopters rent. You'll need to confirm that your lease permits pets, and we may ask for written landlord approval. If you need help communicating with your landlord, we can provide documentation about AttA and the adoption process.

Do your dogs get along with other pets and children?expand_more

Every dog in our program has been evaluated for temperament, and their foster family knows them well. We carefully document how each dog interacts with other animals, kids, and new environments — and we use that information to make thoughtful matches.

What's included in the adoption fee?expand_more

The $350 adoption fee for dogs covers spay or neuter surgery, full vaccination series, microchipping, a health examination by a licensed veterinarian, and any treatments administered during their time in our care. It's genuinely excellent value for everything included.

What happens if the adoption doesn't work out?expand_more

We ask that you return the dog to AttA rather than rehome them yourself. We have a return policy in place for exactly these situations — life happens, and we never want a dog to end up in an uncertain situation. We'll work with you to find a solution.

Can I meet a dog before I apply?expand_more

Absolutely. Usually we prefer a application, first, but we can make special case exceptions, if required. We want you to feel confident and excited — not pressured. Check our events page for upcoming opportunities.
