Dr. Phil Good, owner of Town & Country Veterinary Clinic, received his Bachelor of Science with highest honors in Chemical Engineering from Georgia Tech in 2006. Phil finally came to his senses, realizing he’d much rather work with animals than in a chemical plant. Dr. Good obtained his doctorate in veterinary medicine from UGA in 2011.
Cornbread picked his forever mom when she came to look at available dogs. He laid by her feet and wouldn’t budge, staking his claim on her. It worked! (Wish we could tell the other dogs to try this.)
After a year of waiting for someone to want him, Mason is adopted! This great couple didn’t leap into action when they saw his adorable face online but instead called and asked lots of good questions. Then called back and asked more. They’re active and wanted to adopt a dog who’d fit and be happy…
From homeless to happy. Hulk, now called Hank, got a loving set of people-parents and two canine companions out of this deal. It’s rewarding to help our community’s homeless animals this way. Thank you for supporting adoption!
We rescued Camille in February from an animal control facility. She’d just had puppies. We saw the worker there grab a metal rabies pole and drag Camille out by the neck. Ugh! We were so sad to see this sweet little mama treated that way. Camille sat on our volunteer’s lap, traumatized on the way…
Happy faces all around! This blue-eyed beauty generated a LOT of interest but only needed one home and has found it! Thanks to all who wanted to adopt Vanity. Her new name is Bertie and we think she looks right at home already! Thanks for adopting!
Charlotte stopped this young lady in her tracks at an adoption event this past Sunday. When she came back to fill out the paperwork Tuesday Charlotte obviously remembered her and was SO very happy to see her new mama! Congratulations and thank you for adopting!!!
