ATLANTA — As Hurricane Helene approaches, 60 dogs housed at Fulton County’s old animal shelter are in need of emergency homes.
The old shelter, located at 860 Marietta Blvd., was built in the ’70s and has a history of flooding during large storms, according to a Facebook post by Fulton County Animal Services, whose shelter and field services operations are managed by Atlanta nonprofit LifeLine Animal Project.
“We urgently need to find homes for all dogs who are temporarily living at this shelter,” the post says. “They were moved here due to the severe overcrowding at the new shelter, but they can’t stay here.”
The shelter will be open until 7 p.m. today, Sept. 25, and tomorrow, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. for temporary fosters and adoptions.
