WSBTV recently broke story about spay/neuter in Georgia tied to auto license plate sales. They reached out to Dr. Good to get his advice on how to make the program better than it is now. The Homeless Pets Foundation actively promotes spay/neuter of all pets in Georgia. It will improve the disposition and temperament of companion animals. We at Homeless Pets applaud the state for their concern for Georgia’s pets, and look forward to working with them to improve the auto license plate program benefiting spay/neuter.
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.
