Pet of the Week

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.

There’s no better time to find your purr-fect companion! From Friday, November 28, through Sunday, December 7, all adoptions from Fulton County Animal Services will be free! That goes for all dogs and cats in the shelter and those currently in foster homes. Check out the hundreds available at www.fultonanimalservices.com/adopt.

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 $200 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.

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.

Fulton County Pets of the week

Meet Bonez

Bonez is a curious and playful boy who enjoys taking in the world one gentle sniff at a time. Bonez loves his toys and is happiest when he has something fun to engage with. When meeting other dogs, he did very well-offering play bows and enjoying friendly interactions. If other dogs weren't interested in playing, Bonez was perfectly content doing his own thing, calmly exploring the yard and sniffing around.

While we're still getting to know him, one thing is certain: this handsome guy is ready for a home where he can explore, play, and ideally share life with a canine friend who enjoys companionship and fun just as much as he does.

You can stop by Fulton County Animal Services any day of the week to meet Bonez and hundreds of other adoptable dogs and cats. Our address is 1251 Fulton Industrial Blvd NW, Atlanta, GA 30336. For more information about one of our pets, email adoptions@fultonanimalservices.com or call 404.613.0357.

Meet Kuzco

This 51-pound little guy is pure cuteness in a short, stocky package. Kuzco has a calm, low-energy personality. While outside for his dog test, he enjoyed exploring the yard at his own pace, showing curiosity while being tolerant of the other dogs.
He didn't break for play and was content just roaming the yard on his own. Kuzco is a dream to walk on a leash, making every stroll easy and relaxed. He's a sweet, gentle boy.

Meet Winter!

She loves running around, hopping up on the bench, and exploring every corner. Once she gets her zoomies out, she settles in nicely for a walk. She prefers a faster pace and did wonderfully on a harness. This sweet, loving girl is a perfect mix of fun and cuddles - an easy companion who just wants to be near you.
