This family was so great. They fell for Easton at our adoption event two weeks ago. When we explained that Easton needs time to warm up to people, they didn’t walk away but accepted him the way he is. Not every dog is a “just add water” type. Some need extra assurance and time before they feel part of a family.
Easton went home with them as a two-week trial adoption. We got a call last week saying he’s already joined at the hip to mom and brother and is coming around with dad too. Thank you for not rushing him and thank you for adopting!
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.

Tekken is trekking on home! He’ll be little brother to this young lady’s 11 year old cat and will be living in Savannah while his new mom (pictured here with her fiancé) finishes school. Happy tails, sweet pup! Thank you for adopting!
Tuck was a Homeless Pet for over a year. He came from a kill shelter and was nothing but skin and bones when he came in. Once the staff got his health under control, he became somewhat aggressive (more like cage rage). He was labeled dog aggressive, and he went weekend after weekend with no…
Weeks ago during a cold snap these little dogs were found in a parking lot inside a tiny cat carrier. We were unsure they’d survive the exposure, the trauma of being abandoned and the change of environment at our shelter. It took lots of patience and TLC to get the 8 year old brother and…
