Looking for his forever home...

Meet Beethoven!  Just one of the MANY fellows at the Atlanta Humane Society looking for his forever home.  Although pitched as a "Retriever / St. Bernard mix", there's no telling what this guy's exact lineage is...

Whether you're looking for your first dog or to add to the pack, Atlanta Humane should be your first stop.  If you're thinking, like I was, that it's nothing but pit bulls and Rottweilers, guess again!  They have an impressive assortment of small dogs, purebreds, puppies, adults, you name it!  Oh, and did I mention - their huge inventory of cats?  Atlanta Humane Society is a no-kill shelter offering low adoption fees, they spays/neuters all adopted pets and brings animals current with shots before they go home.  It's a win-win!

Check out the other adoptables here:  http://www.atlantahumane.org/adoption/atlanta-pet-adoptions.php

I once heard that something like 75% of the dogs in metro Atlanta shelters are purebred!  Bypass pricey breeders and give a shelter dog a second chance.   I have (3 times) and there's nothing more rewarding!

Here are some other local rescue groups I like:
