I just wanted to say that the Homeless Pets Foundation is incredible . My baby girl Luna was abused , beaten, bread to death , and abandoned. It’s taken almost the whole time we have had her for her to trust us (reasonable so). This love has changed my life . Without my Luna I wouldn’t be who I am today. She has had quite a few surgeries now and Dr. Good is incredible! I’m grateful for everything that Homeless Pets Foundation has done and as well as Dr. Good and his staff. It’s people like you that are truly heroes and I couldn’t say thank you enough for everything!
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.

From anxious to eager, these pre-and post-adoption shots show what a difference a home and love make. Thank you for adopting Athens (now called Lilly) and for being a repeat adopter with us!
Foster homes are great for so many reasons, one being that they sometimes end up adopting their foster animal! Congratulations to Swiss Roll, who went home with this kind gal and her husband a while back. Swiss Roll needed to be in a home to recover from a urinary tract infection (he’s all better now)….
