Pet Adoption In The Douglasville Area: New Dogs, Cats Added This Week
Looking to add a furry friend to your family and make a positive impact on the Douglasville community at the same time? Perhaps it's the right time to adopt a pet! Amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, many facilities in the Douglasville area are still working to fulfill adoptions.
For those looking to adopt, a great place to start your search for your new companion is at Second Chance Greyhounds, where Bgr Firestorm the dog is waiting patiently, or another local facility. If you aren't sure if you have time to take care of a pet year round, many shelters also offer opportunities to foster pets until they are placed in appropriate homes.
Here at Patch, with a little help from our friends at Petfinder, we round up a list each week of all the pets recently put up for adoption in your area. If you're a dog person, you might like CH Hotshot Honey, a Greyhound up for adoption. Or if cats are more your thing, there are several great cats available, too.
