Who We Are
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. We have placed more than 1000 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.
Adopting a friend
Adopting families must be willing to take the Sheltie into their home as a family member, provide proper food, yearly vaccinations, monthly heartworm preventative, clean water, daily exercise, adequate grooming, and large amounts of love. Potential new homes are thoroughly pre-screened. With most Shelties, we require a fenced yard and must see children under the age of five interact with the dog. The adoption fees for mixes, seniors over 7 years, and dogs with Special Needs will be $200.00 fee. Puppies under the age of three years will be $350.00 and all others are $275.00.
If the adopter is not satisfied with any aspect of the adoption, the dog may be returned to Sheltie Rescue of Georgia, Inc., within one month of the adoption date for full refund of the adoption fee.
If you are interested in adopting a Sheltie, please fill out our Online Application at http://www.sheltierescue-ga.org. If your adoption is approved, you will be asked to fill out and sign a copy of our Adoption Agreement.
