ace atlanta humane

Ace is a happy-go-lucky guy in need of a forever home!

This handsome boy loves to run around and be silly. You’ll find him looking for people to cuddle with and seeking out attention to show off how cute he is. One of his favorite things is being petted!

Ace is also very strong and athletic, so he’s looking for a family who can give him lots of exercise and keep him ‘on the go.’ During walks, he remains focused on his handler and doesn’t get distracted by nearby dogs or people passing by him. He just wants to sniff everything! And when your life gets busy, Ace can keep himself entertained with his toys.

Ace is very smart and enjoys mental stimulation. Because he’s so clever, he needs to keep his brain active. He’s been doing great with the training we’ve provided him during his time with us and he already knows some basic manners, but he’d love to learn more with you. He’s crate trained, almost always potties outside, and will catch on quickly to whatever else you want him to learn. We recommend that his new family stays dedicated to a training program for him.

If you already have a dog in your family, Ace would love to meet them! He really enjoys spending time with other dogs, so he would love a dog sibling or the opportunity to socialize with others. Any dogs that he interacts with should be able to match his high energy so that lots of fun can be had! And because of this high energy, Ace should not live with small children or cats.

Ace is currently at our West Midtown location and available for our Foster First Program, which allows you to take him home for 14 days prior to adoption to ensure he’s a good fit for your family.

When little Gremlin came into our care with fur so matted that it was cutting off the circulation in her leg, our donors ensured that our team could jump into action to help her.

We’re so happy to report that little Gremlin made it through her amputation surgery and is recovering well. While our team has been showering her with plenty of love and attention to help keep her spirits high, we’ve also learned that this little lady is very resilient.

Gremlin’s healing journey will likely be a long one. A surgery like this can be difficult for a senior dog, but our team is dedicated to keeping her comfortable, helping her heal, and being there for her as she adapts to her new life on three legs.

Donations make it possible for us to step in for animals like Gremlin when they need us most. Your gift today will continue to aid in Gremlin’s recovery and help the next sick, lonely animal who comes into our care.

When you give now, all gifts – up to $70,000 – will be triple matched thanks to a generous matching gift opportunity provided by the estate of Jan Hayes.

We don’t have any history on Apollo living with children, but we do know that he’s not a fan of other dogs or small animals. Apollo would love to be the only animal in your home–and your heart!

Smokie is a sophisticated and well-mannered cat who’s ready to meet her new family and snuggle with them! She loves lounging on laps during Netflix binges, eating crunchy treats, and getting her chin scratched. She especially loves being pet and will softly purr to show her pleasure.

Because Smokie is 14 years old and ready to relax, she would prefer a home without loud children.

gremlin surgery prep atlanta humane

Gremlin‘s story is a difficult one to share. This tiny, senior dog was found as a stray and just transferred into our care. When our Shelter Medicine Team laid eyes on her for the first time, they immediately jumped into action.

Gremlin is covered in thick, matted fur and has a foul-smelling bandage around one of her front paws. When our team attempted to remove the bandage, they found that the tight mats were cutting off circulation in her paw and causing the tissue to become necrotic. Our team has been unable to remove the bandage because the injury is so severe, and they are now prepping her for amputation surgery.

No dog deserves to live like this. Will you help Gremlin as she undergoes surgery and faces a long recovery? Your gift right now will be tripled.

When you give now, all gifts – up to $70,000 – will be triple matched thanks to a generous matching gift opportunity provided by the estate of Jan Hayes.

Rhonda is a social lady looking to meet new people, make friends, and find her forever family! She loves sitting next to people and letting them pet her, and will jump into your lap for cuddles when invited. She also loves playing with her toys.

Rhonda is a two-year-old mix of terrier, pit bull, basset hound, and a whole bunch of sweetness. She’s housebroken and does great when she’s left home alone. She doesn’t have any experience with other dogs, but our adoption counselors can help arrange a meet and greet with any current canines in your home.

Rhonda qualifies for our Foster First Program so you can take her home for 2 weeks prior to adopting to see how she fits with your family.
