A lot of people don't know that it is a kill shelter. Please have them spend more money on keeping the animals. Our tax hours should go where we want them. We'd like to have some of our tax stars while some more of our go to that instead of all the benefits, you're giving people who don't work and aren't from here.

You do not pay what you would at another veterinarian. They genuinely care about your fur babies and it shows. Everyone was kind, polite, and helpful. The space is clean and organized. They get you in and out in an orderly fashion. The spay/neuter clinic is located next door to their adoption space. Do NOT go to the adoption space if you don't have room in your home and heart for another pet, because you will leave with one if you enter those doors. Lifeline is doing amazing work in the community. They help pets and pet owners. I'm thankful for them and their entire team.

The dogs are kept in nicer spaces that are behind glass. If you're interested in interacting with the pets, you let an employee/volunteer know and you're put into a room to spend time together. We were only casually looking and there with a friend who was considering adopting. In her interactions in the days leading up to our visit, the said the staff was very quick to respond and helpful. The one downside was that I felt the staff/volunteers were very pushy in trying to get the animals adopted... but at the end of the day, they're also just doing their jobs!

I have been fostering with AARF for about 5 months and I love it! They offer a lot of support and…read moretraining to their volunteers and it is a really rewarding experience. I had my first foster dog for a few months and she recently got adopted to a wonderful family. I can't tell you how cool it was to help a dog who literally was on death row at a local shelter to get healthy again and then to find a new home. AARF made it a really easy and rewarding experience to volunteer and they help wonderful animals find great homes. There are other rescue groups in Atlanta and they are all doing amazing work. I'm certainly not saying AARF is any better than any other rescue group because I haven't volunteered with any others but I am saying that the people at AARF rock and I really love working with them.

Thank you, AARF, for giving me the funnest, most affectionate animal I have ever met! I am a…read moresupporter of all animal rescue organizations, but the idea behind this one is special. Fostering an animal while it finds a home is one of the best things a person can do. Animals in tiny cages where they don't get room to run and play can get issues that can take years of training and care to treat. But, give a homeless animal a temporary home while you find a permanent one and it can learn from your other pets or just get used to what it is like to have a nice home. I am still training my dog on some basic lessons, but once she's ready to teach others, I plan to foster. Check their web site if you want to foster or need a pet yourself!

These people are there on a Sunday morning before 8:00, ready to do their jobs. One of the most impressive things is the organization of the whole process. Everyone is focused on whatever task they have. It's crowded, lots of dogs and people. Yet the experience for me was of organized efficiency. Staff communicate continually, with each other and all the people waiting. I really can't stress enough about what a completely successful visit I had. Again, I thank the awesome staff.

I am a first time foster and have been working with Christa, the foster coordinator at Paws, to find a foster match for my home and with my current dog. Christa has been incredible, very communicative and responsive, and is so personable and has such passion for what she's doing which beams just from her. The foster process has been so easy and they've made sure me and my dog are comfortable the entire way through! I'm excited to be a foster for a long time with Paws. Thank you for all the work you do for the community, but more so for the animals as well.

To say I was nervous about how the whole process would play out is an understatement. But Angels Among Us were amazing through the entire process. From contacting me quickly, really making sure I understood what was happening, why, and what was needed was so incredibly helpful. They really helped set me up for success. But not only that, they really cared that these babies go to the right homes. I had a good bit of things I had to provide to be able to have my sweet boy. But I would do it all over again in a heart beat. He's so perfect for me and you can tell that only people working in a rescue for this long can tell when an animal is going to fit in the right place. Even right down to the fosters. They were so wonderful, so welcoming. And now it's been seven weeks that I've had my baby. And I couldn't be more happy, or grateful in this moment. Thank you for making this process such a wonderful experience. And most importantly for everything every single one of you in this organization does.

Brandy is a perfect fit for us and so loving. We have boarded her twice at Our Pals Place and their attentiveness to our questions, or instructions on what our Brandy eats.

We were on vacation, and we received two photos of our Brandy playing with large and small dogs. They introduced her to others slowly to make sure all was alright. Our Pal's Place is by far #1 in our book for this area. Privately run and not a large corporate boarding facility. I cannot say enough. Thank you, Gigi and your staff.

We found a beautiful German Shepard mix today at the Dollar Store up the street. We could tell the…read moredog belonged to someone because the dog looked very well cared for (the dog looked to be at least 80 pounds or more) but its obvious he is lost. The poor guy kept going up to every car in the parking lot hoping he would bump into someone he knew. At one point he actually ran toward the main intersection and we actually had to run out to grab him. After a quick search on Google we found Our Pal's and decided to bring the lost dog here to see if we can find his owner. We talked to Gigi the owner who was so nice and helpful. She gave us the name of a vet down the street (Shallowford Animal Hospital) who could check to see if he is chipped. We could tell Gia cared about our lost dog and even gave us a really strong leash to use... Thanks to Our Pal's we were able to find the lost dog's owner. Thanks Gia and the staff here....you guys are an animal's best friend.
