Low Cost Spay & Neuter Options

Georgia kills over 400,000 pets each year in thier shelters!

800 dogs & cats are KILLED each HOUR in the U.S, because there are not enough homes for them. There are 45 cats and dogs for every person born. Only 1 out of 10 dogs born ever get a home. Only 1 out of 12 cats born ever find a home.

 

It's the LAW!

Note: County Laws require all animals outside to have three things: Food, Water and Shelter. Many counties now have NO CHAINING laws!

If you see an animal without one or more of these elements, or who is chained outside, please contact your local Animal Control and report the problem. The poor pets rely on us to keep an eye out for them when their owners do not care.

October is Adopt-A-Shelter Dog Month

In honor of this month, we have reduced the adoption fee on all of our shelter pets. Adoption still includes, spay/neuter, all testing, vaccinations and a microchip with registration. Adoption fee for October is reduced from $225 to $175.

Read About Carol's Dogs. We at Forgotten Paws have teamed up with Best Friends out of Utah to help this wonderful lady before officials seize and destroy her rescued dogs.

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED for Yard Sale!

Our first try at this sale was a big bust b/c no one ad gas money to be out yard saling! We also had NO volunteers b/c everyone who committed dropped out in the last week. We would would to schedule another sale on October 25th but we need help! Please email me if you can assist!

Items can be dropped off at adoption sites during the scheduled adoptions or preferably scheduled to be dropped at the storage facility in Acworth. Pick up is available for large items. Please email me to schedule a pick up or drop off!

Please tell your friends and family to see if they have things to donate.We are trying to avoid the small tedious items you find at yard sales due to the lack of manpower.

All donations are Tax-Deductible!

Just want to give us money?? Money works too!
