Ginger is a beautiful shepherd mix who is looking to finally find her forever home. At eight months old, she is already 58 pounds and still has some growing left to do. She will be a large dog and is very active and playful. Ginger would love to find someone committed to helping her learn basic obedience while taking the time to help her spend all her energy. Ginger is smart and loves to please so she would make an excellent candidate for obedience classes. She would also be a good running buddy. Among her favorite things are rope toys and Frisbees. She loves to leap after them and will occasionally request a round of tug-of-war with the rope. Ginger loves other dogs and will cheerfully try to play with any that come along. However, she …

Kora is a beautiful Chinese Shar-Pei, Labrador Retriever mix currently residing at the Atlanta Humane Society’s Mansell campus.

Dedicated people make it to the Atlanta Humane Society's Mansell Campus in Alpharetta, and local residents can adopt pets no matter the weather.
The weather in North Georgia can be unpredictable, even leading to the closing of several local school districts when icy precipitation is feared. But the threat of a winter ice storm doesn't slow down the daily activities at the Atlanta Humane Society Mansell Campus, or their volunteers. Karla Slocumb, the center's marketing manager, took a moment to share with Patch a bit of how AHS handles winter weather. Patch: How does weather affect your operations? Slocumb: Sometimes we see a decrease in foot traffic, as people might be less likely to get out in the pouring rain or freezing cold. But as far as taking care of the animals, the weather never stops us from making sure they get outside to go potty! P: Does freezing rain keep volunteers …

Sometimes at the Atlanta Humane Society, we see a dog who is a little older that somehow, through no fault of their own, finds their way to our shelter. Pookie is one of these dogs. Unfortunately after seven years, she has found herself looking for her permanent home. The staff and volunteers at the Atlanta Humane Society would like nothing more than to help her find one. Pookie is a seven year old, female, beagle mix who is the sweetest little dog you will ever meet. She is gentle and friendly, always willing to happily flop down next to you requesting petting and snuggle time. At twenty-seven pounds, Pookie has a little extra weight around the middle so she would love someone committed to taking her for daily walks or light jogs. She …
