LifeLine Animal Project to Build Premier Community Animal Center!

I’m very excited to share the news that LifeLine Animal Project has recently launched our first capital campaign to fund the new LifeLine Community Animal Center! The new 25,000 square foot facility will feature a full-service, low-cost veterinary clinic that will be open to the public, and a premiere adoption center. The goal of the Community Animal Center is to keep more animals from being surrendered to shelters by providing affordable wellness care up front, while helping every adoptable animal that comes into the shelter find a forever home.

While we currently care for 30,000 animals at our clinics and shelters, the new facility will significantly expand LifeLine’s reach, allowing us to ultimately serve an additional 20,000 animals annually, and the new adoption center is expected to facilitate more than 2,000 adoptions a year!

LifeLine has already received over $3.2 million in pledges towards the new building and is looking to the Atlanta community to help us raise the remainder of the project's budget and make the facility a reality. To learn more about the project, view the floor plan or make a donation, please visit LifeLineAnimal.org/animalcenter.

LifeLine’s DeKalb County Animal Services Pet of the Week: Nico

Our Pet of the Week is so gentle and well-mannered that volunteers sometimes refer to him as “Mr. Manners!” Meet Nico, a three-year-old boy who knows basic commands, is super polite and and loves everyone he meets. Nico will wait politely while you put a leash on him, let you walk out in front of him as you go out the door together and stay by your side as you walk him! This wonderfully handsome boy is very kissable and loves to give kisses back. He gets along well with other dogs and would make an excellent family pet. Come Meet Nico at LifeLine's DeKalb Animal Services shelter by dropping by 3280 Chamblee Dunwoody Road, emailing adoptions@dekalbanimalservices.com or calling (404) 294-2165.
