In the shelter’s words
Rocky is a young German Shepherd - abouty 18 months old - who brings curiosity, drive, and heart to everything he does. We knew he was younger than his stated age when we put our hands on him at the shelter, but when he came to us, and his ears started to stand up, we realized that this boy is really just a baby! He’s eager to connect, loves to work, and is already showing us just how much potential he has. Rocky has graduated from our program, and is one smart boy! He needs someone who is dog savvy, and knows how to keep a smart young dog engaged, so that he doesn't come up with a job all by himself. :) If you’re looking for a bright, loyal companion with a big future ahead of him—Rocky might be the one you’ve been waiting for.

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 CellMatesâ 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.
