My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

WHITNEY ~~ Spayed Female, Boxer Mix, 54 pounds, DOB: 9/3/2013

Are you a fan of senior dogs who need a great place to retire? Look no further and come and meet this super affectionate senior.

LIKES: Pretty collars. People of all kinds. Being fussed over. Going for walks. A fenced yard of her own to play in. Comfy beds, treats, toys. Lots of love.

DISLIKES: Other pets. Must be an only child!

SPECIAL DIET: Whitney is currently enjoying a diet that is designed to support her sensitive skin (Purina HA, Hydrolized Protein, or Z/D).

ADOPTION FEE: $65. Her adoption fee includes one month of Simparica Trio (for heartworms, fleas, ticks and intestinal parasites). She's up to date on vet services, vaccines and is microchipped. We are offering ½ all adoption fees to welcome Spring!

ATTENTION SENIOR CITIZENS LOOKING FOR A COMPANION: Whitney is eligible for our Senior for Seniors Adoption Program. If adopted by a senior citizen, we will waive Whitney's adoption fee and give her owner 20% off vet services, food, and any medications for the remainder of her life, if purchased from us.

Additional adoption info

Our goal is to find good homes for all of the sick and injured pets we have, and to adopt them out in the best health possible. Each pet is fully vetted and cared for by our amazing Veterinary Staff! Our adoption fee is $130, which includes a spay or neuter, age appropriate vaccines, and a microchip. We offer a two week trial period, during which time you may return the pet for a full refund if the placement does not work out. We will accept a pet back after two weeks, but no refund will be issued. If a pet is returned after a longer time period we may require a $130 relinquishment fee. We do not perform home visits or have any particular adoption requirements, such as fenced yard. We do, however, reserve the right to turn down potential adopters if we feel like it will not be in the best interest of the pet.

Go meet their pets

Our Clinic is located at 12604 Crabapple Road, Alpharetta, Georgia 30004. Our hours of operation are Monday-Friday 6:30AM to 7:00PM and Saturday-Sunday 8AM to 4PM. We have a few adoption events at the Clinic each year. All of our adoptable pets may be visited at the Clinic at any time. However, if a pet is labeled as being fostered, please call ahead so we can arrange to have the pet available for you.

More about this rescue

Our Stray Program began in 1988, with one dog named Redman. He was rescued by a client who indicated that he had belonged to a homeless man. The man had since disappeared, and the red Chow was ill and now living on his own. We brought him to our Clinic and named him Redman. He tested heartworm positive, was treated for that condition and was also neutered. One of our Veterinarians fell in love and adopted him. Unfortunately, Redman did not live long due to heartworm disease, but enjoyed several great years with his new owner. It was because of Redman that our Stray Program for sick and injured animals came to fruition. We began a fund to support the Program and, since then, have found many sick and injured pets their forever homes! Thanks to Dr. Joe Gaston, we are able to continue our work to help sick and injured strays, and have the opportunity to give back to our pet community!
