“ <strong>Atlanta</strong> <strong>Humane</strong><br />
<strong>Society</strong> envisions<br />
its future as an<br />
organization saving<br />
the most lives of<br />
as many animals<br />
as our resources,<br />
personnel and<br />
financial ability<br />
will allow.”<br />
Heart to Heart<br />
a Walk into the Future<br />
Every individual in the animal welfare<br />
business has a different vision of what<br />
the future will hold. Some believe<br />
you must go forth and spay and neuter<br />
every animal possible to get control of pet<br />
overpopulation, one of the main reasons<br />
animal welfare organizations exist. Others<br />
believe we can adopt our way out of the<br />
crisis. Still others are advocates of education<br />
and awareness for the next generation’s<br />
responsibility of saving animals and<br />
preventing cruelty. All are correct.<br />
Whatever you believe, we can all agree<br />
there is a lot of work to do before any animal<br />
welfare organization can rest. Until all lost,<br />
stray, abandoned and unwanted animals<br />
have a secure, loving home, we must keep<br />
forging ahead to get ever closer to this goal.<br />
The compassion and dedication of humane<br />
people will always keep the animal’s life<br />
and welfare as their beacon of guidance for<br />
future success.<br />
<strong>Atlanta</strong> <strong>Humane</strong> <strong>Society</strong> envisions its future<br />
as an organization saving the most lives of<br />
as many animals as our resources, personnel<br />
and financial ability will allow.<br />
That is why we are in the process of<br />
doubling our geographical size and<br />
capabilities with the addition of a second<br />
location, the AHS Mansell Road Campus<br />
located in North Fulton County. This facility<br />
will open in late 2011.<br />
Over the 138 years of <strong>Atlanta</strong> <strong>Humane</strong><br />
<strong>Society</strong>’s success and accomplishments,<br />
the <strong>Atlanta</strong> Metro and Georgia community<br />
has been a stellar partner supporting AHS<br />
2 ATLANTA HUMANE SOCIETY HEArT NEwSLETTEr SPRING 2011 www.atlantahumane.org<br />
and believing in the care, treatment and life<br />
quality of animals.<br />
A large element of the vast support that<br />
allows us to help so many animals comes<br />
in the form of attending events held as “fun”<br />
fundraisers such as our upcoming Pet Parade.<br />
The long running Pet Parade gives everyone<br />
a chance to have fun with their pets, yet still<br />
perform a heartwarming, unselfish act of<br />
support assisting AHS in helping so many<br />
animals in need.<br />
As the cold snow flies, even here in <strong>Atlanta</strong>,<br />
the thought that so many of our little furry<br />
friends will be safe and warm in the future<br />
because of the support of our donors,<br />
volunteers and community, gives the spring<br />
Pet Parade an ever greater importance for<br />
our Walk into the Future, saving the most<br />
lives of as many animals as humanely<br />
possible.<br />
Thanks for your support. We will always<br />
strive to make you proud of your <strong>Atlanta</strong><br />
<strong>Humane</strong> <strong>Society</strong>.<br />
Cooper, a happy former AHS resident, and<br />
I look forward to greeting you at the Pet<br />
Parade.<br />

Fireman to the Rescue<br />
AHS President Carl Leveridge presented Capt. Chris Holder, FF2<br />
Scott Baker, FAO Clint Martin, and FAO Robert Milton with plaques<br />
of recognition for their bravery. The Truck 20 Crew from the DeKalb<br />
County Fire and Rescue Department responded to an apartment fire<br />
on November 16, 2010. They were able to rescue two dogs from<br />
the third floor balcony and reunite the pets with their families. Thank<br />
you so much guys! You truly are heroes to both people and pets!<br />
1873 <strong>Society</strong> Club<br />
Now in it’s second year, the junior board of the <strong>Atlanta</strong> <strong>Humane</strong><br />
<strong>Society</strong>, the 1873 <strong>Society</strong> Club, is looking forward to another<br />
great year of fundraising and events. In 2011 our mission has<br />
expanded to include all rescues by the HEART vehicle, including<br />
puppy mills, dog fighting rings, hoarders and disaster areas as well<br />
as the Mobile Spay/Neuter Vehicle. All funds raised this year will<br />
be dedicated to this tremendous cause.<br />
Bringing together three <strong>Atlanta</strong> legends, the <strong>Atlanta</strong> <strong>Humane</strong> <strong>Society</strong>,<br />
SweetWater Brewing Company and Yacht Rock Revue invite<br />
you to join us on MArCH 29 th from 6 – 9pm at SweetWater Brewing<br />
Company for beer tastings, brewery tours and a souvenir pint<br />
glass, all while enjoying incredible music as we look forward to the<br />
coming of warmer months!<br />

Yes, it’s that time of year again! The <strong>Atlanta</strong><br />
<strong>Humane</strong> <strong>Society</strong>’s successful fundraiser, No<br />
Ball At All s m , is in full swing. 2011 is the 20th<br />
year for our signature ‘non-event’. Over the<br />
years, No Ball At All has raised much needed<br />
funds to help care for our agency’s “<strong>Society</strong><br />
Pets.” So, instead of having a fancy party<br />
and paying for food, entertainment, and<br />
decorations, all the money raised goes to help<br />
the AHS’ homeless pets.<br />
However, if you do want to get together with<br />
fellow animal lovers, a No Ball At All s m Patron<br />
Party will be hosted by Board member Pam<br />
Ward Smart in the spring. This event is open<br />
to all donors who make a No Ball gift of at<br />
least $350 per person. Once again, Knox<br />
Jewelers is donating a custom-designed pin,<br />
Johnny Cain of Southern Style Studio has<br />
agreed to photograph the event for us, <strong>Atlanta</strong><br />
Flower Market is providing our centerpieces,<br />
and Extreme Staffing is providing bartenders.<br />
If you’d like to receive an invitation or<br />
you need more information, please call<br />

counseling sessions. These hour-long sessions are held at the Shelter on the second<br />
Saturday of each month at 11:00am in the Administrative Area.<br />

a Masters degree in community counseling and education from Georgia State University.<br />
Ms. Ehlers is also available for individual counseling (call 404.250.9148). The main<br />
objective of the group is to generate mutual support and comfort for each other.<br />

Friends For Life<br />
Dear AHS,<br />
Ripley, the cream-colored dog on the left, came into my life on September<br />
30, 1992. I first laid eyes on her the day before, but since<br />
she was a “found dog”, she still had a day to go before she was<br />
eligible for adoption. I was afraid that someone else might be interested<br />
in her so I made sure I returned bright and early the next day<br />
to ensure I could take her home. She’s been nothing but a joy in my<br />
life ever since. Ripley is a sweet dog who always has a kiss for you.<br />
Scout, the red dog on the right, was added to the family on June 1,<br />
1995. I wanted to get Ripley a companion and she came with me<br />
and a friend to the shelter that day. We took a look at Scout, who<br />
was in the older dogs area even though she was still only a few<br />
months old. We decided to go look at the other dogs on the next<br />
row of pens and couldn’t believe our eyes when Scout came bounding<br />
around the corner to find us. We were sure we had put her back<br />
in her pen and latched the door. We put her back and returned to<br />
the next row of pens. We turned around to find she had followed us<br />
again. This time, as we put her back, we stood a few feet away to<br />
see how it was that she was escaping from her pen. To our amazement,<br />
she was able to squeeze out through the slot in the door used for<br />
feeding. That was it. Our search was over. She needed to come home<br />
with us. From day one, Scout has been loyal, attentive and loving.<br />
I am very grateful that both stayed as healthy and active as they<br />
did. Ripley was deaf and had arthritis and a heart murmur but none<br />
of that slowed her down, particularly at meal time or when there<br />
were treats to be had. Scout still gets very excited when it’s time for<br />
a walk or a ride in the car. Every once in a while, she gets a burst<br />
of energy that matches that of any puppy and we take turns chasing<br />
each other around the house.<br />
Thank you to our generous<br />

Ripley and Scout<br />
Both are great pets who truly have been “friends for life”.<br />
Ripley’s health deteriorated quickly to the point that her<br />
vet couldn’t do any more to help her. June first of this<br />
year will mark 16 years since I adopted Scout. She has<br />
an assortment of age-related problems but was still able<br />
to dig out of a fence and escape from a friend’s yard in<br />
while I was vacationing in Florida.<br />
Thanks you, AHS!<br />

A native of metro <strong>Atlanta</strong>, Mariel Hannah was a lifelong pet lover with a special affinity for<br />
homeless animals. Tragically, she was one of four people killed in a home invasion in March<br />
2006. To honor the 18 year-old’s memory, her family and friends established a fund at the <strong>Atlanta</strong><br />
<strong>Humane</strong> <strong>Society</strong> to recognize selfless acts by teenagers who share Mariel’s love for animals.<br />

extraordinary act of kindness for the benefit of animals, briefly describe (under 200 words) how<br />
and why he/she should be selected as the 2010 Mariel Hannah <strong>Humane</strong> Heroes Award winner.<br />
A recipient will be selected in April and announced in early May at the start of “Be Kind to<br />
Animals Week.” The recipient will receive a cash prize and a plaque of recognition. A second<br />

SUV Making a difference in Ga<br />
The <strong>Atlanta</strong> <strong>Humane</strong> <strong>Society</strong>, as part of our ongoing effort<br />
to reduce the number of unwanted animals born in the<br />
state of Georgia each year, provides low cost spay and<br />
neuter services for dogs and cats on its state-of-the-art mobile<br />
Surgical Utility Vehicle (SUV). The SUV program is an<br />
extension of our outreach initiative, designed to provide<br />
spay/neuter services for individuals who are unable to<br />
access our wellness hospital located here at the shelter.<br />
How can I have a pet altered through the SUV program?<br />
The SUV will be making rounds to various locations throughout Georgia over the course of<br />
the year and will provide low cost spay and neuter services. Scheduling is currently being<br />
conducted using the SUV voicemail system. To access this system, please leave a detailed<br />
message at 404.974.2885. Messages left on the system will be returned M-F between<br />
the hours of 8-10am and 2-4pm. An updated schedule of Surgical Utility Vehicle dates and<br />
locations can be found by visiting www.atlantahumane.org/suv<br />
These companies and individuals have sponsored reduced cost spay/neuter<br />
surgeries throughout Georgia.<br />

ALL pETS ALLOwEd 2012 Calendar<br />
This one-of-a-kind calendar<br />
highlights your beloved<br />
pets. Until August 31,<br />
2011, pet owners are<br />
invited to submit a<br />
photograph of their<br />
favorite furry friend. When<br />
all entries are received,<br />
thirteen animals will be<br />
selected as “Pets of the<br />
Month” while one Cover Pet will be selected to grace the<br />
front of the calendar. Those animals not selected as Pet of the<br />
Month/Year will be featured in a collage inside the calendar.<br />
Calendars are sold for $ 15 each through various venues,<br />
including our on-site shop. All proceeds from the sales go<br />
toward AHS animal welfare programs.<br />
To enter your pet’s photo, you may pay online at<br />
www.atlantahumane.org and email your pet’s photo or<br />
complete the entry form and mail it, along with a $ 35 fee,<br />
which gets you one free copy of the calendar! Additional<br />
copies may be purchased for $ 15 (includes S&H).<br />
eNtRy RequIReMeNtS<br />
• All photos must be in color, contain only animals, and be no<br />
larger than 4” X 6”.<br />
• Horizontal (landscape) orientation and gloss finish are preferred.<br />

low quality reproduction.<br />
• Low resolution files will not be considered for Cover or Month<br />
placements.<br />
• Digital photos should be shot in ‘best’ or ‘professional’ quality.<br />
• Due to quality reasons, color prints made at home on inkjet or laser<br />

However, these types of prints will be accepted for the smaller<br />
photos used throughout the calendar.<br />
• Professional photographs are prohibited.<br />
• The back of the photo should have a sticky note with your name,<br />
phone number and name of the pet – please do NOT write on<br />
the back of the photo as it alters the quality of the front image.<br />
