Excellent article explaining the needs for community outreach events! Doing our best to ensure overpopulation at the shelter is prevented as best we can by targeting those who need help the most.

We were SOOOO busy on Saturday morning doing good with Habersham County Animal Shelter, that we didn't even get a chance to post! Our team saw a whopping 240 animals in just a little over 4 hours. That's 20% more than what we promised! It was brutally cold and the wind made things hard for our team, but we persevered. Even the GRINCH couldn't stop us!

These were some of the sweetest and most grateful dogs and cats we've seen all year! More posts to come with our recap numbers, but our program loves to share our success with you.

HUGE thanks to Habersham County Animal and The Allen Family for sponsoring this event. Without their contributions, there would not have been an outreach! And thank you to Petco Love for the distemper vaccines and Atlanta Humane Society for the food/treats we were able to distribute.

One of our most successful outreach events to date! Help us thank our AMAZING team who showed up and worked tirelessly to see 53 more animals than the 200 we promised! We ended up seeing patients until supplies ran out.

By the numbers...
253 pets
197 rabies vax
232 distemper vax
165 microchips
121 s/n vouchers

All of this is done to keep pets healthy and happy in their homes, preventing them from ending up in a shelter or with litters contributing to our current overpopulation crisis!

Sometimes, you just need a hug! And that's just what this shelter pup asked for and received, with our talented Dr. M.

Every week, but especially this one, we are so very grateful for our team of doctors, techs, assistants, receptionists and support staff that make our shelter days work like clockwork! Our mission at Go Fix Georgia is to ensure every shelter animal goes home already altered, to help keep chipping away at the crushing pet overpopulation problem we face. One dog, one cat at a time, maybe with a little hug in between

One of the many GORGEOUS shelter dogs that have come through this month to take their no-puppies pledge with us!

Did you know reducing the overpopulation isn't the only reason to have your dog fixed? In males, it eliminate the chances of testicular cancer and can help reduce aggressive behavior, wandering, urine-marking and more. Spaying a female takes away her heat-cycles, eliminating the risk of pyometra infections, ovarian cancer, helps reduce wandering and more.

The bottom line, fixed pets tend to live longer, healthier lives. And who doesn't want that for their pet? If you have a pet that needs to be fixed, please head over to www.pethoodga.org and make an appointment today.

And stay with us week after week as we share stories of the many shelter dogs and cats we help here at Planned PEThood of GA!

As we head into this holiday season, we realize you might be interested in adding a special furry friend to your family. We want to remind you to . There are still over 1 million shelter animals euthanized each year in the United States. Most of these animals are surrendered to the shelter through no fault of their own.

We support our partner shelters including:
Gwinnett Animal Shelter
Habersham County Animal Shelter
Toccoa-Stephens County Humane Shelter, Inc.
The Friends of Newton County Animal Services
Hall County Animal Services
Barrow County Animal Services

If you are looking for that special dog or cat, please make a point to visit one of these or your local shelter or humane society and save a life! They are waiting for you!

Highlighting two of our most dedicated volunteers! Meet Diane and Lauren. Both of these wonderful women help clean after the many dogs and cats we see, fold tons of laundry, load up animals, and more. We couldn't do so many things without the incredible team of volunteers who are behind the scenes every day!

Want to join us? Fill out a volunteer application at www.pethoodga.org/become-a-volunteer We hope to see you soon!

Yesterday was an incredible day! Helping 60 shelter animals with spay/neuter surgeries, vaccines, and even a couple of specialty surgeries.

We wanted to highlight a very sweet, special girl we saw! Her name is Strawberry, and unbeknown to the shelter, she must have been in so much pain prior to her surgery. Upon sedation, we found this huge stick, embedded in the roof of her mouth!!! Our team quickly managed to pull it out and we have no doubt she felt so much relief upon waking up!

Just a friendly reminder, NEVER let your dogs chew on bones (chicken, steak, etc) or sticks as they can splinter, become lodged like this or be swallowed and puncture through the digestive tract. Let's keep our fur babies safe, particularly this time of year!

Excellent tips from our friends over at Petco Love! Please remember that Halloween and the following holiday season can be stressful for our furry friends. A little pre-planning in regards to their safety can go a long way in preventing them from getting lost!

In addition, if your pet is not microchipped, you can make an appointment at Planned PEThood of GA for only $25. Visit our website NOW to get appointments Monday and Tuesday, before the ghosts and goblins appear at your door Halloween night!
