Since we have no shelter facility our adoptables are in foster homes. We will setup a time for a Meet & Greet with the foster home at a specified location and time. We also have adoption events so please check our website at www.atlbrescue.org to check for dates and times. If you are interested in an animal please fill out our adoption application which can be found on our website at www.atlbrescue.org/process.php. Once your application is approved we will contact you to setup a Meet and Greet with the animal.

Every member of our rescue is a volunteer donating their time and efforts for one main cause, "to rescue all those animals left behind" by their owners or animal controls. We provide any and all veterinary care to each of our rescue animals when they are in our rescue and strive to prevent euthanasia of any animal regardless of breed, age or health concerns.

We take animals into our foster program where they will live, be cared for and rehabbed by one of our approved foster homes. We believe in this environment we are able to notice any issues or concerns that may delay adoptability and have no time limit on how soon they must be adopted. ATLB Animal Rescue knows that each animal is different and that they will be with us until we can find them their forever home.

We survive only by the means of adoption fee's which range from $75 - $500 per animal and donations in order to operate. We do not have paid employees, all donations and adoption fees goes solely for vet care and necessary items for the animals.

We do this so that no animal will be left behind to suffer, be abused or be euthanized. They will get their 2nd chance in life to become the animal that they have the potential to be.
