We love our volunteers and adopters. So when a couple who volunteers with us adopted from us, we were over the moon!
Volunteers Jackie and Kenny help us wrangle, exercise and showcase our dogs at mobile adoption events. When you’re hands on with the dogs on a regular basis you get to know them well. Sometimes you can’t stop thinking about them and that’s what happened when Kenny and Jackie met Cledus. Cledus is a big baby who demands lots of attention. Shelter life is …hard for all animals but Jackie and Kenny felt especially bad when they had to send Cledus back to his cage at the end of the day.
Thanks to them, they found room in their home and hearts for one more dog and Cledus is now getting all the babying he wants!
Jackie sent pictures and this update:
“The first time I met Cledus ( now Chip) while volunteering, there was an instant connection. I know it sounds weird, but after spending time with him and training him I felt like he chose me, honestly. After volunteering week after week I just fell in love with him. He’s such a good boy, and learns very quickly!! His favorite things to do are hike trails and be picked up! lol ”
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.
This cute couple just got even cuter! They adopted a puppy who’d been with us such a short time he didn’t even have a name yet! Wish they all went that fast. Congrats to Puppy Doe and his new parents! Thank you for adopting.

Thankfully he didn’t have to wait long before he met his new family. This lady came to our adoption event hoping to…
Hi, my name is Elizabeth Yandell and I’ve had the privilege of adopting 3 amazing cats from the Homeless Pets Foundation. My first was Chatt. I kept his name because is suited him perfectly given his back story. I adopted Chatt on September 21, 2014, just over 3 months after my family and I lost…
Mableton was the last of her litter to get a home, which we couldn’t understand. She’s adorable AND sweet. Her wait is over now! She gets a family with four kids and one four-legged brother plus a big fenced yard she can use to run and play for the first time in her short life!…
