Zazu - Male - 2 years old - Corgi mix
If there was ever a reason to order a DNA test just out of curiosity, this boy would be it. He’s got the head of a Malinois and the body and legs of a Corgi, which leaves us with a lot of questions and absolutely no answers.Short little Zazu is hilarious, very smart, super social, and comes equipped with a great alert bark in case anyone forgets he’s in charge. When he met the guys for the first time, he made friends with everyone immediately — and we’re pretty sure he already believes he’s head of the class.
Kirby - Male - 2 years old - "Pocket Rottie"
Kirby looks like a puppy, but he's actually at least 2 years old. And he has one of the cutest features we've ever seen: an almost permanent toothy grin because his lips occasionally get caught on his teeth.
We are NOT kidding when we say this boy is ridiculously cute.
We call him a "pocket rottie", but in reality he is probably a min pin / beagle mix, or something similar. He is super dog friendly, loves all the humans, and would be a great fit in almost any home environment.
Peppa - Female - 3 years old - American Bulldog Mix
Peppa came into the shelter after having a very recent litter. When we met this American Bulldog mix with the sweetest spirit ever, we knew that her new start needed to be with Canine CellMates!
Peppa is a lover - she is highly affectionate and loves everyone she meets - she'd love to meet you too! Her favorite position is the sploot, which she frequently demonstrates during class. She woud be wonderful with children, and would love to stretch out for a love fest with you!

Zuko - Male - 5 Years old - Olde English Bulldogge
Zuko is all - or mostly - Olde English Bulldogge, with the perfectly round bowling ball shaped head, short legs with turned out ankles, and the bulldog build. Picture in your head the emblem on a Mack truck - that's our boy!!
He's a compact and muscular 55 pounds, and thinks his perfect place in life would be to ride shotgun in a . . . .you guessed it . . . Mack truck! If you have a truck that needs a riding companion, or if you just want this boy to snuggle up to you on the couch, he will be up for it!
Wiggy - Male - 8 months old - German Wirehaired Pointer mix
Wiggy is the baby of Class 11 at just 9 months old and 39 pounds, and he is ALL puppy — happy, bouncy, goofy, energetic, and always ready to play. Peach and Kirby are his current partners in crime, and he thinks they are just fabulous.
He was surrendered to the shelter because he was having accidents in the house. . . at eight months old. We’ll give you a minute.
His former family said he’s a German Wirehaired Pointer, and we can definitely see it in that scruffy coat, face, and build. The cream-and-gold coloring is a bit of a plot twist, so who knows what else is mixed in there.
Tweety - Female - 15 months old - Cattle Dog Mix
Tweety is a cattle dog (likely mixed with a Smooth Coat Collie), which basically means she’s equal parts brilliant, busy, and always three steps ahead of everyone in the room. If there’s a job to do, Tweety has already done it… and improved it.
Right now, Tweety is training in our Beyond The Bars program, where she’s channeling all that lively puppy energy and sharp intelligence into focus, structure, and partnership. She’s the kind of dog who makes you laugh one minute and say “how did you even figure that out?!” the next — constantly observing, learning, and engaging with everything and everyone around her.
Belle - Female - 3 years old - Shih Tzu
Belle wasn’t always Belle. We originally named her Nikki after someone abandoned this tiny 9.5-pound Shih Tzu overnight on our property.
She was terrified and so severely matted that it took two people eight hours to free her from the mats covering her little body. Once they were gone—and after a couple of much-needed spa days—Belle began to blossom.
Today, she’s settling beautifully into Beyond The Bars, learning to trust, bonding with her handler, and winning hearts along the way. Watching her confidence grow has been a joy.
Zara - Female - 4 1/2 Years old - Rat Terrier Mix
This girl, who we think is a mix of rat terrier, min pin and a little bit of pittie, is a petite girl. She weighed 29 pounds when we pulled her from the shelter. She has filled out, and is at her perfect weight of 39 pounds - and won't get any bigger. She has a slender little body with long legs, a beautiful red brindle coat, and ears for days! If you have wanted a dog to do dog sports with - like agility - this sweet athletic girl may be a great fit for you!
Zara's adoption fee is sponsored by Kate Mara.
Beyond The Bars Class 11 Dogs - AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION!!
Our Amazing Sponsors. Please patronize these great businesses!
Canine CellMates dogs are selected from Fulton County Animal Control, a high volume, open intake county shelter. Each dog chosen for the program undergoes extensive temperament testing to determine their suitability for our program. Under the supervision of certified trainers and training assistants, the dogs and their handlers spend nine weeks learning basic obedience, and graduate from the program by passing an obedience test.
Canine CellMates dogs are available for adoption immediately and will be able to go to their forever homes after graduation. We carefully screen all adoption applications to ensure the right match between dog and person. Canine CellMates graduates are fully vaccinated, micro chipped, spayed or neutered on monthly heartworm preventive, and obedience and crate trained.
Bama - Female - 3 1/2 Years old - Lab mix
This gorgeous 72 pound girl is a Lab (or maybe a mix), about 3 1/2 years old with a shiny black coat. Bama loves people, and other dogs, and is a happy girl who would blossom in a home, and would absolutely adore having a family to love. Bama is smart, obedience trained and would love a home, and a back yard, to call her own!

Yogi - Male - 3 1/2 years old - Pittie mix
Yogi stopped us in our tracks when we saw him peeking over his half door at the shelter - his face was so sweet and hopeful. Then we peered over the door at his emaciated body, and saw the tail wagging anyway, we just couldn't say no!
Yogi is already hard at work with his trainers, learning new skills, building trust, and showing just how much potential lives inside a second chance. And while he may not come with a catchphrase (yet), we’re pretty sure it would be something like: “More belly rubs, please.”
PREVIOUS GRADUATES WHO NEED A FUREVER HOME - ARE YOU THEIR NEW FAMILY?
Peach - Female - 2 years old - "Pocket Catahoula"
Here's the thing about Peach… She also LOOKS like a puppy. But this little lady is actually at least 2 years old!
She's basically a pocket-sized Catahoula. You know… the designer version for people who LOVE Catahoulas—the brains, the gorgeous coats, the eagerness to learn—but maybe don't have room in their house for the full-size model!
Peach weighs… 34 POUNDS. THAT'S IT.
She is so ridiculously little that it's almost comical. But don't let that tiny package fool you. Peach is full of personality! She's smart, playful, energetic, and LOVES hanging out with other dogs.
