In the shelter’s words

Wiggy is the baby of Class 11 at just 9 months old and 39 pounds, and he is ALL puppy — happy, bouncy, goofy, energetic, and always ready to play. Peach and Kirby are his current partners in crime, and he thinks they are just fabulous. He was surrendered to the shelter because he was having accidents in the house. . . at eight months old. We’ll give you a minute. His former family said he’s a German Wirehaired Pointer, and we can definitely see it in that scruffy coat, face, and build. The cream-and-gold coloring is a bit of a plot twist, so who knows what else is mixed in there. Whatever he is, he is RIDICULOUSLY cute, expected to top out around 55 pounds, and we have a sneaking suspicion this boy is going to have a fan club.

Plan a visit with the source organization

If you are interested in adopting one of our dogs, please fill out an adoption application. After filling out the application, please save or print and scan it and email to: adopt@caninecellmates.org. As soon as we have received your application, a member of our Adoption Coordination team will be in touch with you. Next, we would like for you to attend one of our meet n' greets to meet your potential new pup face to face (dates and times will be announced on our Events page). Lastly, we will conduct a home visit and introduction to your family (both human and non-human). Additionally, all of our dogs require an adoption fee. The dogs in the Canine CellMates program are all selected from Fulton County Animal Control, a high-kill facility, which is now under the management of Lifeline Animal Project. Each dog chosen for the program undergoes extensive temperament testing to determine their suitability for the program. Under the supervision of volunteer professional trainers and assistants, the dogs and their handlers spend eight weeks learning basic obedience. Equally important, the dogs are socialized around a variety of people and other dogs during this period. Canine CellMates’ dogs are available for adoption immediately and will be able to go to their forever homes after graduation. Canine CellMates will carefully screen all adoption applications to ensure the right match between dog and person. Like all dogs adopted from FCAS, the Canine CellMates graduates are fully vaccinated, micro chipped, spayed or neutered and are on monthly heartworm prevention.

Confirm availability, fees and the meeting address before traveling.
