We pulled sweet Sonny from a high-kill shelter in north Georgia. His handsome mug caught the eye of this family and they took him home for a 2-week trial adoption to make sure he was right for them and their pampered 14-year old cat. Sonny passed with flying colors and the couple’s young son already refers to Sonny as “my boy”! Happy ending, new beginning! 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. 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.
Thelma has a family now! Her new name is Izzy and here’s a picture of her hanging out with her new furry sibling and chillaxing in her very own plush bed. Her family reports “it’s like she’s always lived here!”. That’s music to our ears. Best wishes Izzy and family!
Breese found his forever home! And it comes complete with a Boxer sister too. Congratulations to the sweet fella (on left) and his new family! Thank you for adopting.
Three more of Allie’s puppies have adopted parents! Defender (tan), DonkeyKong (with couple) and Tetris are off with their new families and ready to start living the good life. Thank you for adopting!
Savannah has a new Pop! He was looking for a dog who’d be his constant companion. Congratulations and thank you for adopting.
