Some of these faces could be going home with their new families this Saturday. Could one be yours? Come meet our adoptable Angels at Petco! Whether you’re ready to adopt, curious about fostering, or just stopping by for some snuggles, we’d love to see you. Can’t make it? Share this post to help these babies find their people, and tell us who caught your eye! Petco | 5938 Roswell Rd., Sandy Springs, GA 30328 11 AM - 2 PM

If you’ve been thinking about fostering, please don’t scroll past these three. We’re looking for three people in Greater Atlanta who can give one of these dogs a safe place to stay while we find them an adoptive home. Our current foster homes are full, and having somewhere to go is what makes it possible for us to take each dog in. We cover all approved veterinary care and can provide supplies if needed. If you live in Greater Atlanta and can give one of these dogs a safe place to stay until they’re adopted, please call or text our Foster Hotline at 770-835-5844 or email JoinUs@angelsrescue.org. You can start by asking about the dog who caught your eye. This conversation could be what gets them out of limbo, and into a home. #fosteringsaveslives #fosterdog #rescuedogs #atlanta #shelterdog

Meet our own little Addams Family! Some adoptable Angels are all dressed up and ready to wish you a happy and safe Halloween! #dogcostume #adopt #foster #atlanta

A little glimpse of a day that meant so much. Over 650 pets were served at our free vaccine clinic with Planned PEThood of Georgia! In addition to vaccines, some families also opted for microchips and spay/neuter vouchers, helping protect their pets beyond the day’s visit. Behind every wagging tail and carrier was someone who showed up for their pet. We’re grateful we could show up for them, too. Thank you to the volunteers, veterinary team, donors, and everyone who made this day possible. This is your support at work. #angelsrescue #gwinnettcounty #vaccineclinic #protectyourpet

If you’ve been thinking about fostering, consider this your sign. Atlanta metro fosters needed. We cover supplies and vet care. You provide the love. 😻 Ready to help or just want to ask a few questions? Call or text our Foster Hotline at 770-835-5844 or email JoinUs@angelsrescue.org #fosteringsaveslives #angelsrescue #atlanta #northgeorgia

A little look at Sunday, when our morning involved a 5K, dogs in costumes, glitter freckles and a whole lot of ’90s music. 💿🐾 An extra shout-out to everyone who left their warm beds and braved the cold to join us! Thank you to everyone who ran, walked, volunteered or cheered at The Fast and the Furriest 5K. You helped turn a chilly morning into more second chances for dogs and cats. A huge thank-you to our sponsors for helping make it all possible: The Hotel at Avalon, Lezlie’s Pet Sitting, Hollywood Feed, Paw Patch Animal Clinic, Atlantic Residential, Fazit Beauty, and Project LeanNation See you next year! #Alpharetta #runningwithdogs

Astro’s school pictures are in. Now he just needs a family to put one on the fridge. This adoptable puppy is looking for a home of his own. Could it be yours? And if this photo brought back memories, come make some new ones at our ’90s-themed Fast and the Furriest 5K! Join us October 18 at Webb Bridge Park in Alpharetta to run or walk and help dogs and cats like Astro. Registration prices increase October 11, so grab your spot before they go up! 👟 #alpharetta #jrtofinstagram #puppiesofinstagram #angelsrescue

This is the fostering effect. 💙 The dog staring at the wall in the shelter and the dog you see playing and enjoying life are the SAME dog. A temporary home gave her a safe place to land, decompress and finally show everyone who she really is. We desperately need more fosters right now. Angels Among Us is a foster-based rescue, which means every animal we save needs somewhere to go. When we don’t have that space, we have to say no to animals we could otherwise save. If you’ve thought about fostering but worried about the expense, we cover all approved veterinary care and can provide supplies if you need them. You provide a safe, loving place while they wait for their forever family. And when your foster is adopted, you’ve made room for us to save another. Fosters must live in the Greater Atlanta area. Want to learn more or ready to help? Call or text our Foster Hotline at 770-835-5844. Be part of #TheFosteringEffect

Need a little more joy in your life? We have three pretty convincing reasons. ❤️ Doodle Dandy, Spangle and Anthem are 9 weeks old, full of personality, and the kind of puppies that just make you smile. They’re already 15–18 lbs, so they’re going to be on the bigger side, with lots of growing, playing and loving still ahead of them. We need a foster OR adopter for each of these sweet pups! Give one a place to land and we’re pretty sure they’ll return the favor with plenty of love, laughs and puppy kisses. Because they’re siblings, they’ll need to go to separate homes to help prevent littermate syndrome. 🏡 CAN YOU FOSTER? You must live in the Atlanta metro area. Vet care & supplies provided. ❤️ READY TO ADOPT? You must live in Georgia. If one of these faces made you smile, imagine getting to come home to it. Apply to foster or adopt today! #fosteringsaveslives #puppylove #puppiesofinstagram

Today, Angels Among Us Pet Rescue welcomed our 23,000th rescue since our founding in 2009. Twenty-three thousand dogs and cats. That’s a number we’re incredibly proud of, but if we’re being honest, it’s also a little hard to celebrate. While 23,000 lives saved is an amazing milestone, it’s impossible not to think about why organizations like ours are still needed. After all these years, the shelters are still full. The calls for help keep coming. The need hasn’t gone away. Our 23,000th rescue is Maizy Novella, a 9-year-old long-haired Dachshund who arrived at a shelter struggling to urinate. Shelter staff suspected bladder stones, and they were right. We rushed her to surgery, and the amount of stones removed from her tiny body was shocking. While she was under anesthesia, Maizy also received a dental cleaning and several extractions. We can only imagine how much better she must be feeling tonight. Maizy may be number 23,000, but she represents every animal who came before her and every animal who will need us in the future. She represents every foster who opened their home, every volunteer who gave their time, every adopter who said yes, every veterinarian who helped, and every donor who made it possible for us to keep saying yes. If you’d like to help us celebrate this milestone, please consider making a donation through the donate button here or on our website. Give in honor of Maizy Novella. Give in honor of one of the many dogs or cats who has touched your heart over the years. Or give for the next one who will need us, because we know they’re coming.

Today, we’re celebrating National Rescue Dog Day by spotlighting just some of the incredible dogs and cats currently looking for homes through Angels Among Us Pet Rescue. Some are playful puppies and kittens. Some are seniors. Some have overcome neglect, illness, or heartbreak. And some are still waiting for the person who will finally choose them. Every adoption, foster home, donation, volunteer hour, and share helps save lives and gives these animals the second chance they deserve. Browse our adoptable pets at angelsrescue.org and help us spread the word by sharing this post. #NationalRescueDogDay #AdoptDontShop #RescuePets #DogRescue #CatRescue

Imagine having a loving home your whole life, and then suddenly everything changes. That is where Lexie Gracie is now. This 11-year-old bichon came into rescue after her person moved into assisted living. She is gentle, well-mannered, and clearly used to being loved, and she is ready to find that again. Lexie is fully housebroken, walks beautifully on a leash, and will politely let you know when it is time to go out or eat. She takes daily medication for a heart condition without any fuss, and it does not slow her down. She is not a big cuddle bug, but she always wants to be close by, your quiet little shadow. She would do best in a home where someone is around most of the time. Lexie Gracie has so much love left to give. She just needs someone willing to give her that next chapter. Apply to adopt: www.angelsrescue.org/adopt 🐾

National Guide Dog Day felt like the perfect time to introduce a pup who is already learning what it means to stay close to her people, Zola DD 🐾 She is not a trained guide dog, but she is well on her way to being an incredible companion. At just 4.5 months old, this hound mix knows sit, down, stay, and come. She walks nicely on a leash, settles well in her crate, and is mostly housebroken with the occasional puppy accident. Zola loves everyone she meets and wants to be wherever you are, especially if that means curling up in your lap for a nap. She is not destructive, aside from her very specific love of cardboard boxes. Her experience with cats is unknown, but her friendly, easygoing personality makes her a great fit for many homes. Somehow (!!), she has not received a single application yet. She is still just a baby with so much love to give. If you are looking for a loyal, loving companion, Zola DD is ready to meet you. 🧡 Fill out an application today: www.angelsrescue.org/adopt

Mini vlog: Angels Day Out ☀️Suncrest, Braydan, Bob Barker, Sugar Plum & Levi Ahoy🐾 Sunshine, walks, and a chance to just be dogs for a little while. Each of them is on their own journey… and the right home will make all the difference. #adoptdontshop #fosterdog #adoptme #foreverhome #fosterme

NEW RELEASE: Meet the Zola DD, a 4-month-old hound mix who is redefining the "Good Girl" standard. Standard Features Include: 🌟High-Speed Play: Perfectly designed for fetch and backyard sprints. 🌟Power-Save Mode: Once her energy is out, she automatically switches to a 35-pound "weighted blanket" for ultimate cuddles. 🌟Advanced Learning: She’s already mastered the "Sit" command and is nearly house-trained! 🌟Hound Audio: Comes with a soulful, classic howl (best for houses with yards rather than apartments!). Recommended Environment: Zola is best paired with an active family, a fenced yard, and maybe even a dog sibling or kids (6+) to keep her entertained. She’s still in the "puppy mouthy" phase, but she’s a quick learner who is making great progress with positive reinforcement. Ready to upgrade your life with a new best friend? Fill out an application for Zola DD today—this limited-edition sweetheart won't be available for long! 🦴✨ https://angelsrescue.org/adopt

*Cuteness overload.* You’ve been warned. Symptoms of fostering may include: • baby talk • taking 500 photos a day • sharing your pillow • falling in love with rescue Our puppies are looking for foster homes, and honestly… one of them is probably your next obsession. #fosteringsaveslives #atlantafoster #puppiesofinstagram

A foster home gave this mama the chance to rest, care for her babies, and watch them grow in safety. Today, every puppy is adopted and loved because someone said yes. We’re always in need of fosters for mama dogs and their babies. Could you help the next little family? #FosteringSavesLives #AtlantaFoster

🚨 EMERGENCY surgery for Kiki Bee 🚨 Kiki Bee swallowed what appears to be nearly 8 feet of rope. Some of it began to pass, but before it could safely move through her body, it wrapped inside her intestines and became life-threatening. We received the call for help and were faced with an impossible choice. Euthanasia, or emergency surgery. We chose life. Kiki Bee is in surgery right now. This procedure is extensive, urgent, and very costly, but it is her only chance to survive. Without immediate intervention, she would not make it. We are asking our community to please rally behind this sweet girl. Every dollar helps cover the cost of her emergency surgery and critical care. If you are able to give, please donate now. If you cannot donate, please share her story so others can help. We will keep you updated on her progress. Kiki Bee deserves a future.

Why Spay / Neuter? Spaying or neutering your pet is part of being a responsible pet owner. There are many important benefits to having your cat or dog fixed as soon as medically recommended. 1. According to research, there are several medical benefits. Spaying a female dog or cat helps to prevent uterine infections and some cancers. Neutering a male dog or cat aids in preventing reproductive cancers. 2. Overpopulation of pets is a huge problem and many animals end up in shelters or being euthanized. Spaying or neutering is the most effective method to control the pet population that often leads to homelessness. 3. Another benefit to spaying or neutering your dog or cat is avoiding medical costs down the line. It is considered by most veterinarians to be preventative care. 4. Behavioral problems are not uncommon in unaltered cats and dogs. Aggression, excessive marketing tendencies, whining, crying, barking and the urge seek out a mate can all be curbed by having your pet spayed or neutered. #spayneuterawareness #rescuedog #adoptabledogsofatlanta #adoptabledogatl #rescuedogsofinstagram #angelsamongus #angelsrescue #beagle #adoptabeagle #beaglesofinstagram #fosterdog #atlanta #atlantarescue #atlantarescuedogs #adoptdontshop #adoptadog #adoptadogsavealife #adoptarescue #adoptarescuedog #rescue #rescuedogsofinstagram #rescuedog #shelterdog #adoptashelterdog https://spotsociety.org/?fbclid=IwAR0ZubzEhGBe3nIIVRXh2EUsUS-5KzVCJk8u7oVP5CmXhf2k0EhEOXZB1No

February is nationally recognized as “Spay/Neuter Awareness Month.” It’s Ideal to have pets sterilized before the spring and summer months which we refer to as puppy and kitten season. Animal shelters see the biggest increase in animal intake at this time of year. What is the ideal age to spay or neuter your pet? Below are general recommendations, however, it is important to speak to your veterinary about what timeline is best for your specific breed. * Cats: before five months old * Female dogs: after they stop growing and before their first heat * Male dogs: six to nine months #spayneuterawareness #rescuedog #adoptabledogsofatlanta #adoptabledogatl #rescuedogsofinstagram #angelsamongus #angelsrescue #beagle #adoptabeagle #beaglesofinstagram #fosterdog #atlanta #atlantarescue #atlantarescuedogs #adoptdontshop #adoptadog #adoptadogsavealife #adoptarescue #adoptarescuedog #rescue #rescuedogsofinstagram #rescuedog #shelterdog #adoptashelterdog https://spotsociety.org/?fbclid=IwAR0ZubzEhGBe3nIIVRXh2EUsUS-5KzVCJk8u7oVP5CmXhf2k0EhEOXZB1No

Today is National Spay Day and we'd like to encourage ALL pet owners to be responsible and spay their female dogs. Spaying them prevents accidental litters and helps prevent cancer and many other health issues. Talk to your vet about the right time to spay. Then you can give them a well deserved SPA day!
