Adoptable Georgia Dogs for February 3, 2015

This is a meme that’s going around – the formerly wild and wary couch hounds.

Gwinnett County inmate #43716 is a beautiful female Hound dog, described as “semi-friendly.” Sometimes dogs become scared, defensive, less friendly when they’re in the shelter, but teaching them what a loving home, regular meals, and a comfortable couch allow them to come out of their shells. Hounds have wonderful temperaments and make great family dogs. Dolly, our coonhound mix, is a Gwinnett Shelter alum too.

Barrow County Animal Shelter volunteers received the 2014 Community Service award from the Barrow County Chamber of Commerce. They helped save more than 1,400 lives in 2014. 94% of healthy, friendly dogs were saved and 100% of healthy, friendly (non feral) cats were saved.

Barrow County inmate #2015-01-065 is a 63-pound senior male Mastiff who needs a good home to help him through his golden years. He’s on the euthanasia list at Barrow County for tomorrow and needs to have adoption or a foster today.

Zoey is at the other end of the size spectrum, a 14-year old, 18-pound Chihuahua mix female. She’s on the euthanasia list for tomorrow and needs a home today.

Barrow County #2015-02-003 is a friendly Male Lab mix, about 3-4 months old. He’s not yet been put on the list for Euthanasia, but he deserves a chance at life and adopting or fostering him will help save another dog.
