Saved, Lost, and Still Available. Feb 23rd 2013.

On my photography blog I tried to post a weekly recap of our success (and failures). I'm gonna start doing that on this blog instead. Photos will be of the Available animals, followed by those that were Rescued/Adopted, and finally those we Lost.

If you interested in getting email updates from FOGCAS send us an email at fogcas@gmail.com and we'll add you to the list. If you know of a rescue group that we should include in the email updates, send us their address too. You can also follow us on twitter @fogcas. You'll get photos of all available animals, and updates when they've been adopted or rescued.

Quite a few dogs had to be vetted before their departure. Winston had to have his torn eye lid repaired as he was neutered. The Golden Retriever had an incident in my car on the way to the vet. He decided to use the back of my SUV as a toilet. Luckily the carrier he was in contained most of the mess...

None of the rescues would be possible without lots of help from the local volunteers, the rescues pulling the dogs, the staff working to help hold the dogs at the shelter for extra time, the cross-posters getting the word out about the animals and networking them, the transporters, and the vet and staff for helping with the vetting. A lot of work is involved in saving every animal. Finally, thanks to all those families that adopted from the shelter. We hope you love your new family member.

Available (this doesn't include new arrivals since closing on Thursday)...

#1330, Rhodesian Ridge Back Mix, Red, Adult, Female. This young dog, like all the adults today, walked very well on a leash. She did want to stay near Kim and get lots of attention. It was a little hard to get a good photo of her. She finally cooperated and gave me a fleeting glance. For more information, please contact the Gordon County Animal Shelter at 706.629.3327. The shelter is located at 790 Harris Beamer Road in Calhoun, Ga.

#1269, Lab/Shepherd Mix, Black/Tan, Adult, Male. This guy only wanted to roll around in grass and enjoy the sun. He is very social, but was not very comfortable on a leash (we carried him).

#1285, Heeler/Hound Mix, Red/White, Adult, Female. She is a very sweet, playful dog. We had trouble getting a good photo of her because all she wanted to do was run and play with Kim. She has a very soft coat and walked well on a leash. For more information, please contact the Gordon County Animal Shelter at 706.629.3327. The shelter is located at 790 Harris Beamer Road in Calhoun, Ga.
