A hearty thank you and congratulations to the Bair’s for adopting Diamond, now called Lucy. The Bair’s were looking for someone to love after having to say goodbye to their 13 year old lab Jake.

Mildred came our way via a north GA animal control facility. They were full and animals were at risk of being killed due to lack of space. She. Was. Terrified. She clung to the volunteer who brought her in like her life depended on it. And it kind of did. After weeks at our shelter…
Bubbles floated on outta here with her new Daddy! Her new mom (camera shy) said when she saw Bubbles, she knew she was the one. Bubbles will have a poodle friend and two cat pals in her new home so she’ll always have a buddy around, which is great since she’s used to being with…
