Happy Sunday, humans! ✨ I would like to point out that I am an absolute prize. 🏆 I have first-class Place commands, laser focus, and instant recall. Yet I am still here in the shelter. Waiting. Rude! 😤 Let’s recap: 🍼 Found in a box at a day old and bottle-fed by absolute angels. 👑 Watched my sister get adopted into a loving suburban family with total grace, poise, and zero jealousy. (Okay, maybe a little jealousy.) I’m a brilliant mix of Poodle, Australian Shepherd, and 19 surprise breeds. Because I’m so smart, I get bored fast. My ideal human profile: A Pre-K teacher who specializes in ADHD. 🧠🎒 Here is my mandatory daily checklist: 🧩 Pattern games 🌳 Sniffaris 🏃‍♀️ Serious exercise If you’re up for the challenge, submit your application at the link in our bio (www.streetpaws.org)! 🐾🌐 . . #StreetPaws #Aussiedoodle #RescueDog #AdoptDontShop #SmartDogs DogTraining

Join Storm and Anne Marie Maltbie on a stroll through downtown Locust Grove. 🐕‍🦺🐾 ✨Today we are working on Sniff Walks and Pattern Games. 🐶🎮 Sniff walks are a fabulous enrichment activity for dogs of any age and at any stage of life. In addition to sniffing literally making dogs feel good, science has shown that sniff walks can reduce anxiety and improve their cognitive health. Also, since dogs have an average of 300 all factory receptors, 20 minutes of focused, sniffing and mentally fatigue a dog as much as a 1-hour high energy, walk or run. If you are a geek like me and want to know more about that, there are links at the end of this post. Pattern games are simple to teach and to remember. They act like a conversation between you and your dog, they tell your dog that y’all are in this together and that you were gonna work through it together. #adoptdontshop #patterngames #greatergoodcharities #sniffari #fearfreetraining https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/pod-to-the-rescue/id1560707692?i=1000763147040&r=130 This material may be protected by copyright. https://www.podtotherescue.com/loose-leash-walking.html https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/pod-to-the-rescue/id1560707692?i=1000763147040 https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLzah4eBqpvRn8WnG_eM-wsLYuaseEBNR1&si=5TVu8O0bW5JebCbG

Hiking and leash work with Storm is all about patience, teamwork, and letting dogs just be dogs! 🐾 Today we’re working on positive reinforcement leash walking—celebrating check-ins, waiting out the pulls, and remembering to ditch the negative feedback. Did you know that the area of a dog’s brain that processes smells is right next to the area that releases dopamine? Sniffing isn’t just taking in information; it literally makes them feel good! 🌲✨ Storm is learning the ropes so well, getting smarter by the mile, and looking for her very own forever couch. 👉 Ready to welcome this sweet girl into your family? Apply to adopt her at www.streetpaws.org! #positivereinforcement #adoptdontshop #greatergoodcharities #fearfreetraining #sniffwalk

A boss doesn’t get his paws dirty. He delegates. 🐾 We are the Black Fur Mafia. I run this syndicate with silence, precision, and an iron claw. And every Don needs muscle. Enter Storm—my personal enforcer, food taster, and ongoing migraine. Contraband hits the floor? I don’t touch a single crumb until Storm tests it for poison. If she survives five minutes, it’s safe for the Don. The humans try to humiliate me with seasonal attire? Storm shreds the insult straight off my back on sight. The problem? The girl is completely unhinged. I tell her to secure the perimeter, and she’s trying to break the janitor’s broom in half. But nobody lays a finger on the Don while she’s on payroll. Pay your treat taxes on time. Capisce? 💼🕶️ • • • #BlackFurMafia #VaderandStorm #EnforcerStorm #AdoptDontShop #greatergoodcharities

This is Arrow, he is a rescue who got his second chance 8 years ago. Dani's family found him at an animal shelter in San Antonio, Texas. He was abandoned by his family. Arrow was only about a year old at the time. When the shelter found him, they saw that he had a microchip and he had been dumped. The family did not want him back so Dani and family adopted him as soon as they were able to. Arrow came with separation anxiety, he chewed on things when nervous, he ate really fast out of fear of not having his next meal, but he was healed with patience and love. He has since become Dani's best friend and companion and in return for her healing his anxiety, he heals hers. "This is what happens when you save a rescue, they tend to save you in return" -Dani Come meet your forever companion at our adoption event this Saturday! Where: Street Paws 109 Bethlehem Rd Locust Grove, Georgia When: 17 October 2026 2:00pm - 5:00pm #adoptdontshop #savearescue #streetpaws #cchsrescues #SPrescues

🚨 OFFICIAL STATEMENT / CEASE & DESIST 🚨 Vader the cat is out here spreading pure workplace propaganda, and frankly? My legal counsel (me) is exhausted. 🙄💅 First of all, his recent “Public Service Announcement” was an unprovoked smear campaign. I am not “causing chaos”—I am single-handedly carrying the facility’s quality-assurance department and optimizing floor-plan ergonomics. If Vader can’t handle a routine peer-to-peer wrestling consultation without filing a dramatic HR grievance, that sounds like a personal bandwidth issue on his part, not mine. 🤷‍♀️📁 As documented in the footage, I have impeccable sit mechanics, profound diplomatic tact, and an executive schedule packed with mandatory hydration breaks and nap-tackles. 🐾✨ You can adopt me solo if you want pure, unadulterated excellence, or package-deal me with Vader if your living room needs top-tier managerial drama on a daily basis. 🥊🛋️ Get your paperwork together and apply at streetpaws.org before someone with actual taste scoops me up. 👑📄 #adoptdontshop #greatergoodcharities #catsvsdogs #adoptablepets #frenemies

🐱 Oh, you think this is funny, human? Go ahead. Take your pictures. Post them online. I’ll remember this when it’s time to knock everything off your desk at 3 AM 🙄🎃 - Signed, Forest!

Vader and Storm. Vader's side of the story.

Maybe while waiting for their forever home… they ended up finding each other along the way. ❤️ Meet Vader, a special needs kitty, and Storm, a sweet, playful puppy. These two became the best little buddies while sharing a space at Street Paws. They play. They hang out. They keep each other company. And honestly? Watching their friendship grow has been pretty special. 🥹 Now we’re hoping their story has an even sweeter ending. A forever home - maybe even together? 🏡🐾 Of course, we know adopting either one individually would be a success, but if there’s someone out there with room in their heart and home for both Vader AND Storm, imagine the future these two could have together. ❤️ Are you the hero they’ve been waiting for?

🐾 February is National Spay & Neuter Awareness Month! 🐾 Responsible pet ownership starts with spaying and neutering - it prevents suffering before it begins, helps prevent overpopulation, reduces health risks, and keeps our furry friends happy and healthy. Street Paws is proud to offer discounted and free spay & neuter grants to help make this essential care accessible to our community. Together, we can give every pet a better life! 📩 Learn more or apply for a grant today: https://form.jotform.com/242316005460040
