The Dog Next Door
Overview
The Dog Next Door is a small personally funded canine
rescue located outside Atlanta, GA in Marietta. I have been
rescuing and placing dogs in loving homes since 2003.
Because I do this out of my home and pay all expenses
myself the number of dogs at any given time is limited. I try to
rescue highly adoptable dogs but occasionally my heart is
touched by one so terrified and damaged that I know it may
never find a home. If it does, I feel very blessed indeed that
there is a compassionate person out there that can look into
the heart of these special animals and see more than the
timidness, fear, and pain, and see the potential in these
special animals - see and understand that dogs, like
humans, can be changed with time, love and a lot of patience.
I believe there is a special place in heaven for those who love
the unwanted and undesirable "the least of these," whether it
is animal or human.

Welcome to The Dog Next Door. Please forgive me, but this
site is under construction. Until the web site is fully
operational, for information on the dogs posted here, you can
contact me at deb@thedognextdoor.com or at 770-875-9659.
We are located in Georgia. However, upon approval of your
application and payment of the adoption fee, transportation can
be arranged to any state for these wonderful dogs. Because I
do this alone and am ALWAYS strapped for money, please
plesae consider contributing to the "chip in" link. I cannot post
my mailing address because people will (and have) literally
tied dogs to my mailbox - one such shocking instance was in
the middle of an ice storm about two winters ago and the
neighbors came to me and asked "did you tie a dog to your
mailbox?" Well that was a very stupid question, but the poor
baby was nearly frozen and so loved cuddling in the electric
blanket, he was just a baby about 6 months old and found a
wonderful home in less than a month. Contributions can also
be made directly to my vet, Dr. Nathan Orr at 770-887-7112,
1902 Old Atlanta Road, Cumming GA 30044.
