Overview
Mission
You lucky dog rescue is dedicated to the rescue of homeless and abandoned dogs from the high kill shelters of north Georgia. We believe it is our moral responsibility to save, protect and improve the lives of these dogs through the help of committed volunteers, foster homes, donors, veterinarians, and trainers. We strive to re-introduce these dogs to society and provide them with carefully screened forever homes.
What it reported doing in 2024
You lucky dog rescue took in 64 additional dogs during 2024 from local county shelters. These dogs were provided veterinary care, rehabilitated and housed in foster homes during 2024. Veterinary care included spay or neuter, age appropriate shots, heartworm treatment, microchip insertion and any additional care necessary for the well being of the dog. You lucky dog rescue adopted out 55 dogs in 2024.
