Barkville Dog Rescue

BarkVille Dog Rescue, formerly known as BarkTown Dog Rescue & Sanctuary, is an all-volunteer, non-profit organization committed to saving dogs of all breeds, sizes and ages. We are a non-breed specific rescue, and we do not exclude dogs due to extensive medical needs. Our goal is to save dogs in the most need of rescue assistance, including older dogs, medically challenged dogs, and PitBull Terrier type dogs. We work with our friends and donors to raise the funds necessary to provide life-saving treatments for the dogs we rescue and to identify the best foster situations for the dogs in our care.Dogs in our care are spayed or neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and receive all appropriate veterinary care and treatment needed prior to adoption. Our dogs are then placed in a nurturing foster home while they await placement into their permanent home. Our group remains interested in and committed to the welfare of our dogs beyond the adoption process. Our goal is to help dogs in distress without regard to age, breed, size, or ease of placement. To the extent our finances allow, dogs in the greatest need take priority.Our cost to provide basic veterinary care to a dog is about $300 and covers all necessary vaccines, spay/neuter and microchip. If the dog tests positive for Heartworm disease (as many of our GA stray dogs do), the additional cost to treat heartworms is approximately $500-$600. For dogs with injuries requiring specialized treatment and/or surgery, costs can easily increase into the thousands. When BarkVille becomes aware of a dog in need, we immediately get to work posting the dog on our social media platforms and networking with our internet friends & partners to make people aware of the dog’s situation. We raise funds and solicit for fosters, and once we have both, we transport the dog to one our partner vets as quickly as possible.We strive to work with area shelters and other rescue groups to develop a network of supporters and volunteers to create a better world for homeless dogs.

Meet Nerf

Meet Nerf, a sweet and loving boy looking for his forever family! He is a Pitbull/Lab mix, estimated to be around 3yr old, and weighs just 35lbs. He was saved from an overcrowded Atlanta shelter and has many old scars that hint at a sad and hard past life. Nerf starts off a bit timid and shy, and will look at you with soulful eyes that are just yearning for love! He has expressive ears and the cutest white-tipped paws you've ever seen! Nerf is both dog and cat friendly - he currently lives with 2 Yorkies, a Doodle, and 2 cats in his foster home! He has a low energy level, but loves a game of fetch and playing with toys! He is house trained, crate trained, and knows his basic commands. He is reserved at first and can be uncertain of new noises and people. A family who understands a timid dog, and will take their time to help him build his confidence would be amazing for this special boy! Nerf would do great in a home with or without other dogs. He'd love to have a fenced yard, but this is not a requirement. He would likely do well in a condo or townhouse. Nerf is gentle, loyal, and will make a wonderful companion for a lucky person/family! Nerf is neutered, fully vaccinated, and microchipped. If you're interested in adopting this handsome boy, please email us at [email protected] or submit an application at https://www.barkvilledogrescue.org/applications. BarkVille covers all medical expenses for our dogs while they are in a committed foster home. BarkVille is located in Roswell, GA and our dogs are available for foster/adoption in the Greater Atlanta area. Applicants in surrounding states could potentially adopt a BarkVille dog if their application is approved, they live within 2-3 hours of the Greater Atlanta area, and they are able to pick up their dog from the foster home.

Adoption Process
All of our dog posted for adoption are fully vetted which includes: Age appropriate vaccines (DHPP, Rabies, Bordetella), spay/neutered/microchipped. All adopters must complete an application, reference checks, and home check. Adoption fee is $300.00. Senior dogs are $250.00.
