For the rest of August, Lifeline Animal Service will be doing fee-waived adoptions at their DeKalb and Fulton County animal shelters.

Brian Griffin is a two-year old, 55-pound male mixed breed dog who is available for adoption from Lifeline DeKalb County Animal Shelter in Chamblee, GA.

Brian Griffin is a very handsome boy who like his “Family Guy” namesake is super smart. A volunteer fan told us that he LOVES to fetch toys in our yard and then go on a nice easy walk where he just takes it all in. Given the chance he will happily roll around in the grass and just stretch out and relax followed by giving lots of kisses. He knows sit and is learning down and some other commands. He loves treats, listens well, is eager to please and learns quickly. Don’t pass this good lookin’ sweetie by. He’s a definite catch.

Huckleberry is a two-year old, 64-pound male mixed breed dog who is available for adoption from Lifeline DeKalb County Animal Shelter in Chamblee, GA.

Kim Possible is a three-year old, 58-pound female mixed breed dog who is available for adoption from Lifeline DeKalb County Animal Shelter in Chamblee, GA.

Kim Possible is learning to sit like a champ and play a nice game of fetch. She loves to learn and takes treats gently which works very well. She is also very playful. This girl is a great pup in training. Reach out to our adoptions team and will give you all the tips to keep it up and make her the best girl ever.

On Saturday, August 27, 2022, the Gwinnett County Animal Shelter will host a “Clear the Shelters” adoption drive, according to AccessWDUN.

 On Saturday, August 27th, Animal Welfare will be hosting a Clear the Shelter celebration from 11 a.m. until 4p.m.. This event will provide an opportunity for attendees to adopt a pet for free, as well as enjoy music, face painting, pet vendors and more.

“Like shelters all across the country, our hope is to find happy forever homes for the many great pets in our care,” said Animal Welfare and Enforcement Manager Alan Davis. “We would love to literally clear our shelter.”

All month, all adoptions are free, and all adopted animals are spayed or neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.

Those interested in adoption can find available pets @GwinnettAnimal Shelter on Facebook or visit GwinnettAnimalWelfare.com and complete the application before coming to the shelter for a meet and greet.

This 7 year old sweetheart has been in the shelter since JANUARY and is looking for his furever home! Chance is super smart. He’s house and crate trained, and he loves kids and even enjoys getting baths. To set him up for the best chance of success in a new home, shelter staff would prefer he go to a home without other pets. If you do have pets and are interested in Chance, they would recommend bringing your pets to the shelter for a safe, staff-led interaction between them and Chance to see how well they get along.

Five beagles freed from a breeding facility have landed at the Athens Area Humane Society, according to the Athens Banner Herald.

These beagles were part of the largest dog rescue operation in the United States. They were seized in July after the U.S. Department of Agriculture cited a massive puppy mill in Cumberland, Va., for numerous violations of the Animal Welfare Act.

The seized dogs were turned over the U.S. Humane Society. The company has settled with the government, according to a report in USA Today.

Debra Berger of Atlanta and the state director in Georgia for the national society, attended the arrival of the beagles at the new shelter on Mitchell Bridge Road. The new shelter opened a year ago.

“This is a process. It’s not one and done. There are 4,000 beagles in need of rescue,” Berger said, noting that more beagles would likely come to Athens.

Beagles, such as the puppy sponsored by Hughes, will go to a foster home where the dog will be acclimated to a life with a caring family.

You can donate online to the Athens Area Humane Society or follow them on Facebook. It looks like there will be a delay before the Beagles are available for adoption, so in the meantime, here are a few of the other dogs.

Cowboy is a large, 7-year old male mixed breed dog who is available for adoption from the Athens Area Humane Society in Athens, GA.

Cowboy is a loving and loyal 7-year-old boy who appreciates the value of a great couch to nap on. While he may enjoy short walks or chewing on nice bones, he is at his happiest curled up next to you watching Netflix. He’s sweet as can be, and comes move-in ready already knowing sit, come, down, stay, and shake! Cowboy and his foster are working through a fear of other dogs at the moment, so he would prefer to be the only dog in his home. Looking for an easygoing chill buddy? Cowboy’s your guy! ? Yeehaw!

Jojo is a 1.5-year old, medium-sized female mixed breed dog who is available for adoption from the Athens Area Humane Society in Athens, GA.

Jojo’s always on the go! She’s got a bubbly and happy personality and is extremely loyal. She loves to play and get zoomies in the yard. She doesn’t like other dogs but she loves people!

Nacho is a year-old male mixed breed dog who is available for adoption from the Athens Area Humane Society in Athens, GA.

Nacho is the happiest dog on the planet! He loves to play and explore. He’s doing great in foster care right now, learning house manners and crate training. He gets along great with other dogs as well, but his energy is too much for a cat in a household.

Mike is a young male Husky mix puppy who is available for adoption from Furever After Rescue in Macon, GA.

Hey there! My name is Mike and I’m one of the boys from My Three Sons litter. I may be the biggest boy in my family, but I’m still just a little guy. Yep, I’m small enough to fit on your lap for a lot of cuddling. I can sit still long enough to be held and loved on. And I give great kisses! My dad says that I am the biggest “”cuddler”” in my family. I’m just a very happy boy and I enjoy being with everyone – people and animals. But I also have lots of energy, and I love to run and wrestle with my brothers and the other pups and play with our favorite toys. I love dogs too, and I can fit right in with a big pack. I live with my siblings and another group of puppies, but my extended pack also includes my foster family’s big dogs, other puppies, and a couple of goats. And I love all of them! My mama always tells me that I am a very good boy. I’d be a good boy for my new family too. Can I come live with your family? I’m with my foster family in Eatonton now, but I’m up for a road trip to go HOME.

Robbie is a young male Husky mix puppy who is available for adoption from Furever After Rescue in Macon, GA.

Hello! My name is Robbie, and I’m the middle son of the My Three Sons litter. My foster mom calls me “the crazy one,” but that’s not really fair. I just love to check things out, and I’m not nervous about exploring on my own. And I’m a “rough and tumble” type of guy. Robbie’s mom is a beautiful 38lb Husky mix, and dad is unknown. Each pup is sweet, affectionate and even-keeled. They have been socialized with people and other dogs and are laid back, go-with-the-flow pups.

Katy is a 2-year old, 38-pound female Shepherd mix who is available for adoption from Furever After Rescue in Macon, GA.

Katy is very active and loves to run and play. She would do best in a home with another playful dog. Katy is submissive to other dogs, but very rough in play when she finds a friend who will wrestle with her. Katy likes: running and playing with canine friends, Nylabones, plush toys to destroy, treats (lots of treats!), nice places to nap (a human’s lap, doggy beds, couches, beds). If Katy is left alone – and not in a crate – for an extended period of time, she has occasionally found other things to chew on. Her favorite is shoes. Katy should have at least one canine playmate – another high energy dog with whom she can play, run and wrestle.

Gidget is a 6-7 year old, 49-pound female German Shepherd mix who is available for adoption from Peach County Animal Rescue in Marshallville, GA.

Gidget is a fluffy girl that came to us by way of animal control. She and her brother Jaxx were found as strays. Gidget is terrified of new situations and needs time to settle into her surroundings. She is shy by nature and her response to new stimuli is to try to escape it. Based on this, we really do believe that she and her brother had to run to survive prior to coming to us. They are warriors. Gidget needs a family or individual that will love her for who she is and allow her to adjust to life as a treasured member of the family on her own terms.

Bella is an 8-year old, 12-pound female Chihuahua and Rat Terrier mix who is available for adoption from Peach County Animal Rescue in Marshallville, GA.

Bella is a sweetheart that loves car rides and gets extremely excited for a harness and leash. She is quite sure of herself, but gets along with dogs of all sizes, female or male. She likes to play with the shelter’s resident dachshund when she is in the mood and enjoys the challenge of the tussle with toys with him. She loves to be picked up and cuddled, and her favorite position is to put her head under your chin.

Noah is a 3-year old, 33-pound female mixed breed dog who is available for adoption from Peach County Animal Rescue in Marshallville, GA.

Noah is a petite little girl who came to us as an unclaimed stray. She had taken up under a trailer and had puppies. The puppies have since found homes and now it’s sweet girl Noah’s turn! Noah would very much love to have another, chill, dog family member to play with. She is a great girl that can either party or chill with you on the couch. As long as she’s around friends, she’s good for anything! Noah has a mellow, calm personality and she has come to expect love and kindness from humans instead of harshness.
