Duncan is a 1.5-year old, medium-sized male Pointer mix who is available for adoption from Coastal Pet Rescue in Savannah, GA.

Duncan is a high energy, lovable, playful, intelligent Pointer mix. He is approximately 1 1/2yrs old. Wonderful personality, gets along with other dogs of all sizes. He loves people of every age. Duncan is working on walking politely on a leash. Will require a fenced yard.

Lucky is a 15-16-year old, male Hound mix who is available for adoption from Coastal Pet Rescue in Savannah, GA.

Lucky might be an older fella, but he’s still got plenty of pep in his step! This energetic old man loves to be outside! Snooping around, stopping to smell the roses (and all kinds of other stuff), and running and rolling around in the sunshine are a few of his favorite hobbies. We’re not sure if he’s hard of hearing (it happens to the best of us as we get older), or if he’s just ignoring us when we tell him it’s time to get back to his kennel.

Once he gets to know you – and he’s done with his snooping – Lucky is down for a cuddle and would love a soft place to curl up with you. This sweet old man is just a happy-go-Lucky kind of guy looking to luck into a new home. If you think that might be you, don’t wait to submit an application to meet him so we can get his new life started.

Few things in life are as precious as the love of a senior dog.

Abby is a 12-year old, female Shibu Inu and Husky mix who is available for adoption from Coastal Pet Rescue in Savannah, GA.

You would never guess that Abby could be considered a Golden Girl by the way she loves to play with toys – and kids too! She’s still got a lot of spunk in her, and while she does get along with people (and doesn’t seem to be bothered too much by cats), she doesn’t really like other dogs, and would prefer to be your one and only. And quite frankly; at her age, she deserves to be treated like a princess and have all of your attention.

Abby loves walks, treats, a good nap, and is house trained. She’s not really a barker, but does like to join in the conversation when you’re talking to her. She also loves looking out the window, so a chair or ottoman where she can keep an eye on the neighborhood would be perfect for her. One thing that Abby doesn’t like is a kennel; this senior prefers to lounge on the couch with you. Maybe because she’s loving and affectionate, and doesn’t mind a snuggle now and then.

Brookhaven residents are eligible to adopt animals from the Dekalb County Animal Shelter at no cost, according to a 2022 Press Release.

At its regular business meeting on Aug. 9, the Brookhaven City Council approved a memorandum of understanding with LifeLine Animal Project (LifeLine), which operates the DeKalb County Animal Shelter in one of Brookhaven’s suburbs.

The agreement is the first sponsorship of this magnitude with a municipality. In the agreement, LifeLine agrees to provide pets for adoption to Brookhaven residents at no charge, following LifeLine’s regular adoption application and contract requirements.  The City of Brookhaven agrees to sponsor LifeLine’s regular adoption fees for adopted pets in Brookhaven.

Presently, the regular adoption fee for dogs is $85 and cats is $65, which covers the pet’s spay/neuter, vaccinations, microchip and other screenings. The sponsorship agreement eliminates those fees and goes into effect following a kick off event at LifeLine’s location at 3280 Chamblee Dunwoody Road, on Aug. 18 at 11 a.m.  All Brookhaven residents are invited to attend.

“Brookhaven and LifeLine have a long history of collaboration to encourage and facilitate adoption of unwanted, stray, or abandoned animals,” said Mayor John Ernst. “We promote animal adoptions from LifeLine at the beginning of every single City Council meeting since I have been mayor.”

Glimmer is a 5-year old, 59-pound female mixed breed dog who is available for adoption from the Lifeline Dekalb County Animal Shelter in Chamblee GA.

Glimmer is a sun worshipper who loves a good roll in the grass or walk around the neighborhood, but she’s also content to be by her person’s side while hanging out on the deck, or inside on the couch binging a TV show on Netflix. She’s never met a treat she doesn’t like, and enjoys obedience training (she already knows Sit and Shake) as much as belly rubs.

Glimmer loves car rides and going to new places to have adventures or to just pick up supplies curbside at Petco. She’s totally housebroken, crate trained, and loves toys, especially those that squeak.

Glimmer is in a foster home, so please make arrangements to meet her via the shelter.

Cupcake is a 3-year old female Hound mix who is available for adoption from the Cobb County Animal Shelter in Marietta GA.

Meet the beautiful 3 year old girl we are calling Cupcake because she is so very sweet. Cupcake arrived at the shelter on 03/07 and has been terrified due to all of the noise. A couple of volunteers have taken her under their wings and have been working with her to help her overcome those fears. She is still frightened but her real personality is beginning to come through. Cupcake will sit next to you and put her head in your lap and give you her paw to hold for comfort. We have also learned she knows to sit, shake, shake other paw and lay down when asked. When adopted she will need to go to a home who will work with her and keep her on a leash when outside until she feels safe enough to be outside alone. Cupcake has the most beautiful blue eyes and a pretty golden coat. She is current on vaccines and tested negative for hear worms. She will be spayed and micro-chipped =upon adoption. She is waiting to meet you in run 57 and her ID# is 643072.
