Humane Society of Northwest Georgia

I've adopted 2 dogs from the Humane Society of Nwga. It was such a great experience that now I even volunteer there once a month with my children. They really help match you with the dog or cat that's right for you.

I searched for a companion on PetFinder and found Claire. Claire was one of 3 dogs turned in to the pound by a new husband who stated the 3 dogs were not good with people. Thankfully the pound ignored his instructions to "put them to sleep." The Humane Society, an effective No Kill Shelter got these friendly dogs up so they could be adopted. The PetFinder description was 100% accurate and the photos perfect. To make it easy to apply for adoption, this group provided an online application to submit for consideration to be a fur baby parent. Not all adoption organizations have this good technology yet. My application was reviewed within an hour of submission and Pat, a volunteer phoned me to screen me to make sure she would get a good home. She phoned my references, and approved me. Pat scheduled a time for me, gave me directions and met me on time. The building was clean, and had a sitting area to get to meet Claire, and the transaction was quick. I expect to adopt from here again and look forward to it.
