Zoey is a four-year old female Boxer mix who is available for adoption from Pound Puppies ‘N Kittens Incorporated in Social Circle, GA.

Zoey is an owner surrender from Walton County Animal Control. She is currently in a foster home where she is doing well and she still seems to be confused about her situation. At animal control, she kept looking towards the door as if she was waiting for her owner and she still does so at her foster home. She was given up due to her jealousy issues around other dogs. Because of this, she would do best as an only pet.

Milo is a male Labrador Retriever mix who is available for adoption from Lifeline Project’s Fulton County Animal Services in Atlanta, GA.

Milo should have been named Mr. Personality. With his talking, his love with belly rubs, and his infatuation with indestructible Kongs, not a moment goes by where he’€™s not telling everyone exactly who he is.

In addition to being a total ham, this handsome man lives for Saturdays when he can jump into bed and cuddle with his best friends. On the weekdays, he can be found watching TV, sleeping, practicing tricks for treats, impersonating scooby doo, and going for leisurely strolls on the Westside beltline.

When it comes to playtime, Milo loves a good old-fashioned romp around the yard, provided he gets to Netflix and chill afterwards. Spend ten minutes with Milo, and you’ll see that he’€™s just a big, goofy puppy at heart, and all he wants is to be your best friend.

Likes: Belly rubs, cuddles, (scooby) snacks
Dislikes: The vacuum cleaner, fireworks, green beans and cats

I’m Pete…nice to meet you! I’m one of the seven boys in Mama Brandy’s litter of 10 puppies born on September 20th in my foster home. I’m loveable and playful, but spend most of my time enjoying a good nap. My foster mom says I’m a real cutie with my soft chocolate fur and beautiful blue eyes. I will need lots of love, guidance and time, so I’m looking for a forever family that is home often and willing to teach me all I need to know to become a great dog!

Lifeline Animal Project will waive adoption fees at the DeKalb and Fulton County public shelters, according to the AJC.

The public animal shelters in DeKalb and Fulton counties took in about 500 dogs and cats since last week, prompting officials to waive adoption fees through this Sunday, Nov. 3.

The waiver is estimated to be a $300 value, and includes the pet’s spay/neutering, a microchip and vaccinations, according to LifeLine Animal Project, a nonprofit that manages animal services for the two counties.

“LifeLine Animal Project is issuing an urgent plea for Atlantans to adopt or foster from their shelters,” the statement said.

Kerry Moyers-Horton, the shelter director in DeKalb, said the majority of the intakes are strays. Intake typically decreases in October, she said, so “we aren’t sure why so many are entering the shelter now. Putting ID on your pet, including a microchip and tag, is one of the best ways to prevent them from becoming a stray.”

“If you’re looking to adopt a pet, now is truly the time. And if you can’t adopt, consider fostering, even for just a few weeks, to also save lives,” Fulton Shelter Director Lara Hudson said in a statement.
