About Atlas

Meet Atlas, a heart-melting 11-week-old puppy recently rescued from a municipal shelter in Amarillo, Texas. Known for his wiry black and white fur, he bears a resemblance to a miniature wire-haired Border Collie. Wherever he came from, he’s filled with energy and curiosity, ready to bounce into a new life. Atlas is playful, loves people, and gets along great with other puppies. He arrived alongside Ace, who shares his distinctive look but has a bit more black. Atlas is too young to be neutered just yet, so he’s available on a foster-to-adopt basis. This arrangement allows you to take him home while keeping a partial ownership until his neuter appointment, covered by a $50 voucher we provide. Once the procedure is done, the adoption process becomes official. Located in Thompson Falls, MT, Atlas is eager to find a loving family. Fill out an application today and welcome this little bundle of joy into your home!
