Adoption Event


This past Saturday, we went to Suwanee to the Goddard School for an adoption event sponsored by SPOT society. While we didn't do any adoptions, it was nice for our canine friends to get some fresh air. SPOT society is a great organization!

It stands for "Stopping Pet Overpopulation Together." They are an alliance of animal lovers, dog/cat rescuers and veterinarians working together to reduce the number of animals impounded and exterminated in Atlanta area shelters by:

• funding and providing low to no cost spay/neuters for disadvantaged residents of the metro area - targeted geographical areas for spay/neuter programs include the metro Atlanta area and rural communities with no low-cost spay/neuter resources.

• providing community education/counseling services to individuals regarding the effects of pet overpopulation on the community, the benefits of spay/neuter, tenets of responsible pet guardianship and the importance of pet identification

• promoting companion animal adoption.
