Join Furkids for our weekly adoption event at Petco Sandy Springs on Saturday, Jan. 10th!

Adopting is a rewarding experience for everyone, especially the animals. Please consider saving a life today!

Furkids will have a variety of adoptable dogs for you to meet and greet at Petco, located at 5938 Roswell Rd. NE, Sandy Springs, GA 30328. Bring the entire family! We consider ourselves matchmakers and want to find the perfect pet for your family and your needs. Our animals do have adoption fees which vary; please keep in mind that ALL our animals are fully vaccinated, microchipped, de-wormed, de- fleaed, spayed or neutered, tested for diseases and 100% healthy before being adopted--we guarantee that! Our adoption fees help pay for special animals with diseases such as diabetes and heartworm, medical supplies, food, litter, water, additional medical procedures, emergencies and so much more!
