All our pets can be seen here: http://www.petfinder.com/pet-search?shelter_id=GA479&sort=identifier

Let’s get these guys a home for the holidays!

He is a handsome blue Pit Bull mix. He is about 8 months old. He loves everyone and everything. He became part of our foundation, because his owner was unable to care for him any longer. Sugar Ray needed a couple of surgeries, but now he is completely back to normal. He’s ready to find his forever home. If you think your family is the right match for Sugar Ray, give us a call to set up a time to see him!

PS; He loves cats!

This week we have our spotlight on Henry, a handsome Great Pyrenees. He is approximately 1 year old and weighs about 80lbs. He was found on April 26th, just around the corner from the clinic at the QT gas station. He looked like he belonged to someone, so we held onto him hoping his owner would come claim him. Days went by and Henry was never claimed. He ended up being heartworm positive, so we started treatment right away. Today, Henry is free of heartworms and ready to find a loving home. Come by the clinic today to meet Henry, he would love to meet you.

Fostering can be one of the most rewarding experiences. Briarcliff Animal Foundation will pay for food and any medical expenses, and all you have to do is treat this pet like it is part of your family until we find it a “forever” home. You may have this foster pet anywhere from a week to a couple of months, or even longer in some cases. For more information, please e-mail Lindsay at lhyatt@thebac.net or Richard at Rfischhof@thebac.net. Our goal is to get all of our adoptable pets out of the kennels and into foster homes until they find permanent homes. The pets who need foster homes are: 

 

*Sprite (Sprite 2) 

*Xavier (Xavier)

*Amber (Amber) NOT CURRENTLY UP FOR ADOPTION. PLEASE E-MAIL FOR MORE DETAILS.

*Harry (Harry) NOT CURRENTLY UP FOR ADOPTION. PLEASE E-MAIL FOR MORE DETAILS.

*Count and Duke (Count and Duke)

 

*Smokey (Smokey)

*Bella (Bella (Jane))

For more information about any of these pets, please look on our petfinder webpage.
