So happy to have these sweet Girl Scouts with us today learning about the crisis of pet overpopulation and how they can be part of the solution! They are well on their way with their ongoing efforts collecting donations for our residents and spreading the word about adoption. Our Belle and Trinity (among others!) loved spending time with the girls 🩷!

Congratulations to our own Varsha Ramachandra on being named Veterinary Student of the Year by the Association of Shelter Veterinarians!

Her dedication to animal welfare through countless volunteer hours hasn't gone unnoticed. The compassion she’s shown to every animal in her care, her commitment to shelter medicine, and her leadership within our volunteer community truly exemplifies what this prestigious award represents.

From starting as a Camp O.P.P. Counselor in 2016 and serving as our Camp O.P.P. Co-Director from 2021-2023, to organizing events and fundraisers, to being a part of our adoption team, intake team and so much more, her passion has inspired all of us.

While she’s in Athens, she works closely with Dr. Cannon (pictured) at Athens Clark County Animal Services. Dr. Cannon saw exactly what we see in Varsha, and nominated her for this award. The homeless pets whose lives she’s touched can't thank her themselves, but we can certainly celebrate on their behalf!

We are incredibly proud to have Varsha as part of our volunteer family, and we can't wait to see the amazing veterinarian she’ll become. This recognition is so well-deserved!

Here's to Varsha and all the animals whose lives will be better because of her dedication! 🐾💙

Jolene is one smart girl! 💙🤓

Erin reports that Jolene is house trained, crate trained, and is good with other dogs! Erin has made Jolene’s crate her ‘safe space’ and she goes in nicely. Jolene also knows sit and shake! She’s still a little shy around new people, but it doesn’t take her long to warm up. She even met the neighbors on a walk! Jolene is a quick learner and eager to please her people!

While she’s doing great, our end goal is to find her a forever home. After all she’s been through, Jolene deserves a happy ending!

Now safe, Jolene has been doing amazing in Erin’s home! 💙🎾

Since being able to decompress and relax outside of the shelter, Jolene has been learning how to play with toys. Erin discovered she LOVES tennis balls and shared these pictures! As you can see, she’s never far away from a ball!

We are so happy that Jolene is getting comfortable and loving life outside of the shelter. Stay tuned for more updates!

Jolene was brought into Cobb County Animal Services in early January when she was found as a stray. Volunteers and staff were hopeful her person would come looking for her because her nails had looked recently trimmed and her coat was clean and soft. Unfortunately, no one came for her. Jolene was extremely terrified in the shelter. She would hide in the back of her cage and hunker down when people would walk by her. She was so scared, her first week she tried to escape from two different volunteers who were attempting to take her for walks.

After some time at CCAS, Jolene began to open up and trust certain staff members and volunteers. She even started learning how to play with toys! As she was starting to let her true personality shine, Jolene found herself on the kill list. Volunteers tried so hard to find her a forever home and get her out of the shelter. They filled her comment card with many good things in hopes a potential adopter would take a chance on her.

When our Intake Team was on-site trying to get those on the kill list out, they met Jolene and her confidant, Erin. As a CCAS volunteer, Erin had spent a lot of time working with Jolene. After speaking with Erin and seeing how much Jolene trusted her, we asked if Erin would foster Jolene to help her build her self-confidence with the end goal of finding her a forever home. In return, Our Pal’s Place would fund foster expenses. Erin agreed!!

We are so excited about Jolene getting the help she needs! Check back for updates! 💙

Zeke had been in the county shelter as long as the others on the kill list. He was found as a stray two months ago and no one came looking for him. Because he is on the smaller side, potential adopters would walk right by him, not even realizing he was there. Towards the end of his stay at the county shelter, he had been moved from the floor into the small dog room to give him one more chance to find a forever home. He was a long timer though, and would be next in line on the kill list if he didn’t get out soon. Because he is only 36 pounds and would comfortably fit into a crate, we decided to give him a better chance at O.P.P.!

Once he arrived at O.P.P., Zeke began to come out of his shell. Volunteers took him on a walk, and he had the best time! Zeke is a handsome, brindle boy with a fun personality and would be a great addition to your home! 💙
