I set an appointment via email last week and a waited along with another young lady who was waiting at the gate entrance. A few minutes after my appointment time, an female employee arrived , walked by us waiting, and entered a side gate; once the lady entered she turned and only spoke to the other young lady waiting like I was, and let her in the gate. She then closed the gate and walked off into the building without even acknowledging I was standing there. I honestly felt racially mistreated and disgusted so I just decided to leave

When I came to look for a dog they made me feel out of place they gave me a application to fill out and nobody never reached back out to me…

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Call paws and listen to their phone options, they have an option for 'giving up a pet' that may help. Also, try searching for 'atlanta pitbull rescue'. But ideally finding a home that allows pets so you could keep him, would be best for your dog. Good luck!

A stray dog keeps coming around my front porch and I can't even get into my car before she is sniffing around my feet. We cannot have pets in my rental. I don't want anyone to harm her out of frustration. What should I do?

Patricia Walker | Aug 15, 2022
Sarah H. | Aug 15, 2022

In this case you should definitely call animal control of your county. Currently DeKalb and Fulton have intake stop as far as I know but if you emphasize that it's a stray dog which might pose a danger to humans by e.g. running into the street and causing an accident, they usually come out and catch it if they can. Have you asked around on Nextdoor or FB neighborhood forums if someone is missing their dog? Hope this helps!

How old do my puppies need to be before getting their first set of shots?

Blair Davis | Oct 14, 2020
PAWS Atlanta | Oct 14, 2020

Your puppy's first vaccination will normally be at about eight weeks of age, with a second dose at 10-12 weeks. Your puppy won't have full protection until two weeks after the second vaccination takes effect. After that, annual booster vaccinations are needed to maintain your dog's immunity.

PAWS Atlanta | Aug 15, 2022

Hi Catherine! Thanks for reaching out! We do have a public vaccine clinic several times per month, and our next clinic is this Sunday, August 7. You can find further information here: https://pawsatlanta.org/resources/veterinary-clinic/vaccinations. We do not offer spay/neuter services to the public, but you can find a list of low cost options here: https://secondlifeatlanta.org/spay-and-neuter/. Lastly, please do not declaw your cat. This procedure is painful and damaging, as it's the equivalent of amputating the ends of their toes. Cats need their claws to survive physically and emotionally. More information about not declawing can be found here: https://pawproject.org/about-declawing/declaw-surgery/

I live in an apartment complex. A stray dog keeps coming around my patio. Do you guys pick up strays. I would like to take care of this little dog but I am unable. Can you help me? I live in Lithonia? Please help me.

Wendy Hawkins | Oct 15, 2019
Andy | Oct 15, 2019

I don't think they pick up strays. Perhaps calling them to see if they have room to shelter and then taking the dog to them is a strategy

Renee Levene | Oct 15, 2018

I honestly don't know. I donated to them after my dog died. My dog came from a different shelter. I'd check on their web site for your answer. If there isn't enough information, call them. They're very nice.

I have two dog's that I have to give up and I don't want them to die. They are really great dog's and it hurts but I can't keep them anymore because I lost my apartment and have nowhere to stay at the moment. Will Paws of Atlanta help me?

Valerie Hall | Oct 15, 2018
dee worthem | Oct 15, 2018

Jeff Carter | Oct 15, 2018

Shame on the thought of treating your beloved pet as a throw away chew toy. But before you turn the poor animal out on the street or send it to him where it can be killed, Paws is the place to rehome your pet

Ramona Constantaras | Oct 15, 2018
Celia Gooch | Oct 15, 2018

Take him to Paws they are wonderful. make sure you take him inside. All animals left at the gate will be turned in to Animal Control. Paws need information on the animal so the adoptive parent will know something about their new baby.

I have a dog..and my parents are deciding to get rid of him😢 but, I was thinking of putting him at this shelter..would it be a good idea?

Echo | Oct 15, 2018
Fareed Ahmed | Oct 15, 2018

Yes, paws ATL is a great place for your dog. I volunteered there many times. They will take care of your dogs very well as long as they have a spot for him.

I have a 2 year old pitbull. Her names Samantha, she's spaded and very very healthy. Need to let her go because we just don't have the time to attend to her as needed. Do you'll take them in and if so what are the requirements?

Frederick Ward | Oct 15, 2018
Ananya Augustine | Oct 15, 2018

You should check if it's full. I'm sorry you can't keep her. Call them and ask. If they do, then they should give you paperwork and everything done.

I have two dogs I can no longer care for will they take them?

Stormie Case | Oct 15, 2018
Neil Konn | Oct 15, 2018

Yes.

There is a dog owner who leave a dog outside and it cries "all night". It has been storming and now raining and I feel for this dog. This is clearly case of animal abuse and it's only a night, every night.

John Hamilton | Oct 15, 2018

Trying to start the foster process but no response from the shelter. Its been more than a week and I've visited the facility multiple times. Is this normal?

Kiana Winbush | Oct 15, 2018
Mia Totino | Oct 15, 2018

Kiana I am so sorry that there has been a breakdown in communication. Pet Rescue is a very difficult thing to be involved in. There are so many moving parts to being the advocates for literally several hundred animals at a time with several more needing help all the time. That being said the ultimate goal for each of these pets is to place them in loving forever homes. Please give PAWS another chance if you would like to be part of this process. Thank you for your love and concern.
