Meet Lokee: Our giant baby! 💙

4 yrs old | American Bully/ABPT | 73 lb

This handsome boy came to us after his owner could no longer keep him. He previously lived with a smaller dog and he doesn't mind cats. His past owner shared that he did well with kids as well!

Don’t let his size fool you—he’s actually a big scaredy cat! New people, squeaky toys, crinkly bags, and sudden noises can all make him nervous. Shelter life has been overwhelming for this sweet boy, and he can't wait to find a home where he can relax and feel safe.

He’s looking for an adopter who will go slow, show him patience, and teach him that the world isn’t such a scary place after all. With love and consistency, this big baby is sure to blossom into the loyal best friend he was meant to be. 🐾

Neutered, heartworm & Lyme negative, current on vaccines and on monthly prevention. Adoption fee has been FULLY sponsored by Joe's Hope Foundation in honor of Deborah Ogle.

12 months of FREE Heartworm/Flea & Tick prevention included his adoption! ($350 value!)

Hi, I’m Buster!

2–3 Years Old | Mixed Breed | 45 lbs (and working on filling out!)

I showed up one day at someone’s house near Fletcher’s Lake — hungry, skinny, and covered in cuts, scrapes, and fleas. I had nowhere else to go. Animal Control came to help me and brought me to the shelter, but no one ever came looking or claimed me. I guess I was just forgotten somewhere along the way. 💔

Even after everything, I’m still such a friendly guy with a big heart and a goofy personality. I’ve got the cutest little curled tail that seems to have a mind of its own! I love people and haven’t been reactive toward other dogs in passing. I do think chasing kitties looks like fun, so I’d probably do best in a home without them.

Now that I’m gaining weight and getting healthy again, all I really want is a family to love me back — someone who will make sure I’m never left behind again. ❤️

NOW ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS!

Hi, I’m Sabrina!
1 - 2 years old | German Shepherd Dog Mix | 63 lbs

I was found wandering near Talma, hoping someone would come looking for me. But no one ever did.

I don’t know why I wasn’t reclaimed. I'm such a good girl! I’m potty trained, know how to sit, lay down, and shake… with both paws! I love showing off my tricks, especially if you’ve got some treats and love to give me.

Everyone here says I’m as sweet as can be and very well-mannered. I haven’t officially met other dogs yet, but I walk past them without any issues. Cats, though? I’ll be honest, I really want to chase them. So I’ll need a home without kitties!

I’m expected to do well with people and kids, especially the gentle, respectful kind. I warm up quickly and love attention, affection, and just being near people!

If you’re looking for a smart, loyal, loving girl who’s ready to start over, I’m right here waiting!

Spayed, Heartworm & Lyme negative, and up to date on vaccinations and preventatives.

Hi, I’m Stormy! 💙
Bluetick Coonhound/Beagle Mix | About 2 yrs old | 35 lbs

I may be small, but I’ve weathered a lot of storms and I’m finally ready for my sunshine. ☀️

I was originally found as an emaciated stray. A kind woman took me in and loved me until she could no longer care for me due to health issues.

I’m great with other dogs, cats, and I absolutely adore people! I’m house trained, affectionate, and happiest when I’m near someone who makes me feel loved.

I love to run, explore, and would be thrilled to have a fenced yard or a dog friend to play with. I’m just ready for a new beginning filled with belly rubs, soft beds, and people who will never let me go. 💙

Will you be the calm after my storm?

Stormy did test positive for Lyme Disease. We have started her on Doxycycline for treatment and have given her a Lyme Vaccine. She should be kept on flea/tick prevention year round and receive a Lyme Vaccine at her annual vet exams.

Winter will soon be upon us!! ❄️

Sharing some great information from Kokomo Community Cats TNR Program!!

“When temperatures drop, people naturally wonder how they can help cats who live outdoors.”

If you find yourself concerned for community cats in cold weather, it’s important to remember that these cats’ home is the great outdoors. As a species, cats have always lived outside and thrived in all varieties of locations, weather conditions, and climates. They are well adapted to their environments and know where to find food and shelter from the elements.

However, there are many ways you can provide some extra support. Following the best practices to care for community cats can go a long way toward ensuring their comfort and safety outdoors in the coldest months.

✅ DO NOT bring healthy looking eartipped cats or kittens to animal shelters. ::

Many shelters lack humane, nonlethal policies and programs. Bringing cats and kittens to shelters where they could be killed is not in their best interest—even when the weather is cold. Unless there is illness or injury–in which case consult a veterinarian–allowing cats to remain outdoors is the best way to protect them.

✅ Food and Water—How to Feed Community Cats in Winter::

Provide extra food and water to help cats stay warm. Cats can benefit from extra food during winter, so increase food portions to help them conserve energy. Dry kitten food contains more calories than dry adult food. Canned or wet food takes the least amount of energy to digest, meaning more energy can be spent on fighting the chill. Be sure to provide fresh food and water daily or twice daily rather than let leftovers freeze.

✅ Prevent food and water from freezing with these methods::

Serve wet food in plastic containers. Avoid using metal bowls, as they get cold faster. Providing mainly dry food, which will not freeze, works for frigid temperatures, too. However, dry food takes more energy to digest. Warm up canned food and water before serving or use heated electric bowls.

Use bowls that are deep rather than wide and place them in sunny areas to keep water from freezing. Check out some bowls tested by caregivers. Spray insulation foam into the underside of plastic feeding dishes and water bowls to help prevent food and water from freezing as quickly. Or, you can put a microwavable heating pad, like a Snuggle Safe, under the bowls. You can even make your own homemade heating pad by filling fabric pouches with rice, and heating it in the microwave. If there’s a water source like a spigot, run the water slightly—it won’t freeze as fast as still water. You can also use a water fountain or water bowl with a fountain feature.

✅ STRAW, NOT HAY::

An outdoor cat shelter filled with Straw, will keep community cats warm and cozy during the cold months.

Though they seem similar, using straw instead of hay is the difference between a nice, dry shelter and a soggy, freezing mess. Straw naturally wicks away moisture.

Remember to not use any type of blankets or fabrics as bedding through the winter. Blankets can make a cat house colder in the winter as they absorb moisture and can make the interior cold.

✅ Shelters Available for Fulton County Residents::

LIMITED NUMBER AVAILABLE!
