“Spring is almost here, and that means LifeLine Animal Project will soon be bursting at the seams at our county shelters as we take in between 40 and 70 animals every day”, Karen Hirsh, LifeLine’s Public Relations Director, told us. She further explained that all the new puppies and kittens that are being born will need space to grow, and sadly this is one area where we are limited.

ATLANTA, GA — (March 3, 2017) Springtime in Atlanta brings the sunshine, Dogwood blooms and, sadly, skyrocketing intake levels at DeKalb County Animal Services (DCAS) and Fulton County Animal Services (FCAS) due to the high number of animals being born. To encourage the public to adopt, LifeLine Animal Project is offering $40 adoptions on all dogs weighing over 25 lbs. and all cats throughout March and April.
