Eight year old Tonto became homeless when his owner moved and could only take one of her dogs. Despite the drastic change in his circumstances, Tonto remained happy and loved everyone he met.
Thankfully he didn’t have to wait long before he met his new family. This lady came to our adoption event hoping to find a friend for her chihuahua (being held in picture). Good-natured Tonto fit the bill. Congrats to all and special thanks for giving a mature dog a chance at happiness!
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 family stopped to “window shop” and left with a new friend! Rodi the wire-haired dachshund loves everyone so we know she will fit in well in her new home and enjoy playing with the Maltese the family already has. Thank you for ADOPTING!
This happy guy sent in an application for Cliff and couldn’t wait for our weekend adoption event, so one of our volunteers met him at Petsmart the next day, so that he could start loving on his new baby.
Abba is resting peacefully in her new home!
Passion adopted new parents! We pulled Passion from an animal control facility. She had 8 puppies soon after. She’s been a great mother and the pups are weaned and adoptable now but she won’t have to stick around and watch them leave because, in a rare turn of events, mom got adopted first! Thanks so…
Twix was scooped up by this sweet family.
Luke has left the building! Luke (on right) joins a family with two other canine playmates and doting parents! They looked at a number of dogs at local shelters and rescue groups and Luke won their hearts. Understandable. Congratulations to the new family and thank you for adopting!
