About Alys

Alys needs a foster or adopter by November 1, 2026. This four-year-old mastiff is fantastic with kids and warms up to everyone she meets. She's social and has lots of friends at daycare, but she's not so fond of cats, having been found emaciated and with missing fur before being rehomed. Her first family had three cats, and while they tried managing the situation, it ultimately led to their decision to find her a new home. Alys is truly a love bug; she’s gentle, protective, and knows when to be playful. Her foster notes that she has no aggression towards humans and is especially sweet with kids. Alys has even lived with a dog brother in the past. Alys is currently located in College Park, GA, but she can be transported to CA. She is spayed, up to date on vaccinations, and fully house trained. If you can open your home to save Alys, please contact Ellie at furryfootsatl@gmail.com. Your new best friend is just one click away.
