HISTORY REPEATING

Pet Pick

Tink is a beautiful and exceptionally sweet three-year-old Border Collie mix. She is fairly mellow for such an active breed, and loves to be close to people and snuggle. When you take her for a walk, she has a permanent smile, and is happy to meet new people and animals. She would be a great family dog as she is loyal, intelligent and well-mannered. To adopt Tink, visit PAWS Atlanta at pawsatlanta.org or the shelter at 5287 Covington Highway in Decatur.

Toothless is such a laid-back lady. Her foster mom has done a great deal of work with her. Toothless now walks on a leash like a champ, and has learned her basic commands and manners through her training classes. She is also crate-trained and housebroken. Even though she is so laid back, she still loves to play with other pups. If you are interested in Toothless, then please email Laura at mckelvey.laura731@gmail.com with any questions or to schedule an appointment.

The Atlanta Humane Society (AHS) and the University of Georgia College of Veterinary Medicine are partnering to provide veterinary students experiential learning opportunities in a shelter medicine setting. The agreement allows fourth-year UGA veterinary students an elective shelter medicine rotation at the AHS, during which the students may perform spays, neuters, other basic surgeries and dental procedures, all under the supervision of the AHS veterinarian.
