Please refer to ID/Run numbers when inquiring about specific animals if
available.
Sponsors are welcome for any of the animals. Please email: satoashley@comcast.net and we will add any sponsorships to the pleas.
Barrow County is very rescue friendly. Free for GA licensed rescues; out-of-state rescues, please contact the shelter for details. The adoption process does not have to be completed in person. Complete vetting and boarding are available at Four Paws Animal Hospital. Specific adoption. Information and hours are below.

CATS: The adoption fee for any cat is $100. The fee includes: spay or neuter, physical exam, fecal exam, de-worming, rabies vaccine, distemper vaccine, and microchip. For licensed Georgia rescues there is no charge to pull a cat, but no veterinary services come with the cat. Out of state rescues, please contact us for details. *LAST DAY means the date the cat is scheduled for euthanasia. If we have a cat posted whose last day has passed, that cat should be considered extremely urgent. Please call about those cats immediately as they may be subject to euthanasia at any time. We remove postings on available cats when they leave the building or their adoption has been completed. If you are a rescuer who has spoken for a cat or a person with an adoption application on a cat, do not take offense. We have had rescues and adoptions fall through in the past and we work hard to make
sure no cat falls through the cracks.
DOGS: The adoption fee for all dogs is $100. The fee includes: Spay or neuter, physical exam, fecal exam, de-worming, rabies vaccine, distemper/parvo vaccine, and microchip. For licensed Georgia rescues there is no charge to pull a dog, but no veterinary services come with the dog. Out of state rescues, please contact us for details. *LAST DAY means the date the dog is scheduled for euthanasia.

Maxwell, the dog pictured, has a an adoption offer, i.e. he has a home!
ReplyDeleteHowever, this is the eleventh hour for him. He cannot leave the shelter without first going to the vet affiliated with Barrow, Four Paws Animal Hospital. The adoption fee is $100, and then his adoptee must travel 400 miles round trip to get him to his forever home. Maxwell will most likely have to board at the vet hospital for a few nights following his vetting--GA state law requires him to do this first and he will be neutered if he is intact. Four Paws also adds fees for boarding requirements, like Bordatella vaccine and heartworm testing. I want to make sure Maxwell is covered financially or he will die tomorrow as today was his last day to be adopted. The GA rescue would not pull him without a $250 sponsorship fee in place today! So he needs money donated for adoption and transport fees, not official rescue. But he will be traveling with a NC 501(c)3 animal charity when he is freed.
The board costs $22.60 per night, pricey, and it will cost at least $60 in gas to pick him up and drive him home in an economy vehicle.
Donations for sponsorship can be called in at Barrow County Animal Control, 770-307-3012. Boarding sponsorship can be called in at Four Paws Animal Hospital. Maxwell's adoption paperwork will be emailed over very early this morning to Barrow.
Please help this dog get off of death row! He has a home, he just needs some funding! Approximately $300 will cover adoption, transport and boarding.
