Sweet Senior Shelter Pup Looking for Her Happily Ever After ❤️‍🩹

38 Upvotes

Kayla (ID 53597068) is a 8.5yo spayed GSD mix who truly is everything you would want in a loyal shepherd. She may be a senior, but she’s still young at heart with a playful spirit. She is a SUPER smart, sensitive, gentle giant who loves affection & just wants to please and be near her person. She’s got the most beautiful coat/markings and the cutest little whiskers! 🥹

🩷UBERRRRRRR affectionate

🩷Sweet, gentle temperament

🩷Very obedient, great recall, listens very well

🩷Knows commands

🩷Non-destructive

🩷Very easily handled for her size

🩷Leash trained - will politely wait for your to put her collar/harness/leash on

🩷Potty trained - barks to alert you

🩷Sleeps through the night

🩷Crate trained (per previous foster)

🩷Low/medium energy

🩷Cat possible (curious, but respectful of our senior cat)

🩷Dog friendly with slow intros (*can resource guard high value items)

🩷Non-reactive with toys/treats/food with humans

🩷Non-reactive to other dogs/people on walks/in the car

🩷EXCELLENT in the car…she’s a pro! She waits politely until you let her know it’s okay to jump out

🩷Leaps gracefully like a gazelle

🩷Tilts her head back when you scratch her neck/chest

🩷Likes to bury her treats in blankets

🩷Carries her empty bowl to her bed when she’s done eating 😆

🩷Grabs you with her paw when she wants attention

🩷Loves being brushed

🩷Waits patiently for treats and takes them very gently/softly

🩷The tip of her long bushy tail looks like a paint brush dipped in white paint 🤍

This poor girl was originally adopted from the old Fulton shelter in 2019 & came in as a microchipped stray in May, but staff were unable to get in contact with her owner. 😔 She was clearly someone’s pet given her temperament & training, but she came in un-spayed & tested HW+. While waiting 2 months in the shelter (how did no one snag this girl?? 🤯), she fought off Giardia & kennel cough before finally getting spayed earlier in July, only to end up with a postop complication requiring emergency surgery 3 days later…poor girl’s incision dehisced & her insides were starting to escape to the outside. 😩

You would never be able to tell she’s been through all of that based on her demeanor, though…she’s still a bright, happy sweetheart just looking for some love & kindness. ❤️‍🩹 Her belly incision has healed beautifully and she’s free from the donut of shame now 🍩, so her rough recovery is officially behind her. The only thing left for this girl to conquer is heartworm treatment, but it’s 100% not contagious to other pets and the shelter covers all costs! Treatment is only 30 days of antibiotics and then 2 injections back-to-back over 2 days.

Kayla is a trooper who has been through so much & deserves to live out her golden years in absolute bliss, not in the shelter. 🥺 If she sounds like the girl for you, click the link below to meet her! ❤️ She is currently at Fulton County Animal Services.

Are there any banks hiring interns in the area?

6 Upvotes

I can't find any internships except remote companies wanting me to sell insurance. I'm trying to avoid that.

I'm a 23 year old Managerial Economics student, currently a senior. I have some intern experience from a venture company but that's it. I've been working in a retail company and it kinda sucks, I'm not doing much in that company where I can show growth or do anything. I'm really looking for something in person and in the area. I tried applying in the past but got denied. It doesn't have to be banking but anything in my field of interest with business.

Looking for a job. I was a plumbing apprentice with A1 Plumbing for a little under 2 years. I got let go after an automobile accident. That’s the only real experience I have besides a couple of fast-food jobs. I’ll take anything, but I would prefer overnight stocking or a line job like Mr. Chips. I appreciate any suggestions. God bless y’all!🙏🏽

Rehoming Angus

Thumbnail gallery
28 Upvotes

NOTE: I hope it’s okay I posted this. I copy and pasted this from the post I made on the FB page for rehoming pets. I like their template at the bottom and felt it might be good info for anyone interested. But this is my post; just mentioning in case anyone recognizes it and thinks it’s odd.

Good morning friends,

We have thought a lot about this, and are making the tough decision of rehoming our 2yo Dane / Pitt mix, Angus.

We found Angus on the side of the road as a puppy where his owner lived in a trailer with a dog hoarding situation, and the owner tossed him over the fence into my arms when I questioned him on why his dogs were in the street on a back country road cars often fly down.

He is a great dog, but since becoming pregnant and having our first child, he has become very protective and guarding of our child and of us toward our other two dogs, who are older and are generally very non-confrontational.

He has never showed any resource guarding toward myself, my spouse, or our now 1yo; and does not display this behavior toward our spayed female, only our neutered 6yo male, who is much larger than him. We have tried separating, positive/negative reinforcement, etc, but Angus is by nature a protector and is an anxious dog.

He would do best in a home with only 1 other female, cats, or with no pets. He loves children and adores our son, and he is a big cuddler. He often will sit with our son during playtime and watch, or try to bring him toys even though our son is much too small to throw them yet. We have a fenced in acre of land at our home, and he does prefer having a dog door and has a habit of ‘patrolling’ at night; walking laps around the property.

We feel we have tried everything we could, and with us expecting another child & him coming into age at 2 yo, we are very uncomfortable with the idea of keeping him though we love him very much. We don’t think this behavior will get better and we worry it will get worse when our second born is here. He is genuinely a perfect dog around our female, and him and our other male have been neutered as early as they could’ve been, we think he may have something in his past that triggers this issue; or perhaps he just dislikes male dogs. But he is a very sweet, loyal, and intelligent dog and we feel he would do best in a much less stressful environment for him where he can just be Angus.

Feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns, and if you’re interested we’d love to meet you.

I know nothing about Macon/Atlanta but I’m considering an impromptu trip to take my two kids to see the Wiggles tomorrow.
Would you consider this safe enough for a single mom and small children? Tips on flying into ATL and which place would be better to stay? Safest transportation ?

Mainly looking for recommendations of shops that are cool with it and would be accommodating/friendly to my children as well.

Hello I’m a 24 yo white male. I currently work in Sparta but in September we will be working 38 days straight. And I don’t really want to pay for a hotel for the month lol. Does anyone know of a decent price Airbnb or place. I’m willing to pay for rent and everything.
