These are not dogs available for adoption or foster - they are dogs with owners. Owners that are trying to do right by them and bringing them to a free vaccination event for the community. These dogs were super timid and scared of everything around them. Thx to the wonderful team of volunteers, vet staff, and shelter staff that helped with Fulton county Healthy Pets event. It’s my favorite event each year because it helps owners like these 2 get their pets seen.

And they say shelters in the south only have blocky headed type dogs. They have big goofy majestic dogs too. Come meet Orbit and his cute wagging nubbin. Available for adoption or foster.

Say Ahhhh….Lilly likes the cheese and treats that came along with photo taking, but was a bit shy when the camera came out. She’s a 1yr old gentle sweetheart that loves pets(and treats). She’s currently available for adoption. Run, don’t walk, to go and meet this sweet tiger-looking girl 🐅 🐕

No matter how new, clean, quiet shelters can e. They are still unknown spaces for scared puppies, no matter how big or small the doggies are.

If you’ve considered cropping your dog’s ears. Don’t. They are adorable just the way they are.

I’ve been asking AI (Artificial Intelligence) to give shelter dogs their ears back. These dogs’ previous owners cropped their dogs’ ears for unknown reasons. Usually the practice is justified as a preventative measure against ear infections or injuries, but studies have not validated these claims and veterinary associations consider it an elective cosmetic procedure. Bottom line is: in the majority of cases ear cropping is done for looks and to uphold outdated, cruel breed standards.

This is a serious issue with many shelters. FCAS is a county shelter that’s drowning in animals. Please help. If you can’t adopt or foster, please share. And for the love of dog, spay and neuter your animals and support you local county shelters.

There are a few folks out there who want vilify the shelter for what they believe is not taking care of animals the way they would take care of their own pets. What they don’t realize it’s nearly impossible to put the same amount of energy, care, love and money into hundreds of dogs in one location vs. one or two in a single home. But yet, the staff try. And the staff keep trying even as more and more dogs come in. So if you want to see change in how the shelter cares for the animals, be part of that change and help a shelter out come to the Marietta Blvd or Howell Mill location to adopt or foster.
