Pet of the Week

The Fulton County Pets of the Week initiative, in partnership with the Fulton County Animal Services Facility, is a dedicated effort designed to promote pet adoption and enhance awareness of the animals seeking forever homes. This initiative serves a dual purpose: not only does it highlight specific pets each week, but it also fosters a deeper understanding of the responsibilities and joys associated with pet ownership.

By featuring a diverse array of pets- from playful puppies to mature dogs and affectionate cats—the initiative showcases each animal's unique personalities and qualities, making it easier for individuals and families to envision their future companions.

Normally, adoptions from the County animal shelter at 1251 Fulton Industrial Blvd. NW costs $85 for dogs and $65 for cats. But with all that’s included – spay/neuter, microchipping, all required vaccinations, and more – it’s a $250 value.

Shelter adoption hours are 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Friday, and 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. on weekends. 

Check out the hundreds available at www.fultonanimalservices.com/adopt.

 

If you are interested in adopting any of the pets featured in this section, please click the box below and email adoptions@fultonanimalservices.com.

We look forward to helping you find your new furry forever friend.
