This little girl was in the wrong place at the right time, and it saved her life. While hiking in a national forest in the NE Ga mountains, an animal lover came across this sweet puppy stuck in a deep ditch, nearly a mile into the woods. She was a skinny mess, approx. 8 weeks old, dehydrated and covered in ticks. Fortunately, her angel rescuer took her home and she was finally safe. The mystery remains as to how she ended up that far into the woods all alone. At an initial vet visit, over 50+ ticks were removed from her, some embedded deep in her ears.

Izzy’s Happy Ending
Hundreds of WAG adoptions and we still love hearing the happy-ever-after stories.

If you are looking for a furbaby…

He’d been rescued from the shelter and later tested positive for heartworms. But his lifesaving treatment is being funded by a wonderful donation through Scooter’s Second Chance Friends, in memory of a much-loved pet. Jasper’s photo was spotted by Allison, who adopted a rescue dog from us several years ago. She knew he had to join their family. So on Saturday they drove to Conyers Petsmart and took Jasper home to live with them and his new brother, Monkey, the dog they previously adopted from us (and a whiskered look-alike). And what did Jasper’s new young…
Retiring Moms
Here are a couple of recently retired mama dogs – June and Scully. These two girls contributed 16 puppies to our Puppy Prevention program. All their babies were spayed/neutered and found great homes. Now both have been spayed and are officially retired from the Mom business, devoting their full attention to being happy family pets. Thanks to their owners Alicia and Kim for working with WAG to “fix” their puppy issues!
