Fulton County Animal Services is managed by Barking Hound Village Foundation, Inc. Barking Hound Village Foundation, Inc. is a Georgia nonprofit corporation with 501(c)(3) status. We are under contract with Fulton County to provide animal care and control services through Fulton County Animal Services. Our mission is to save the lives of lost, abandoned and unwanted pets in Fulton County. We encourage on and off-site adoptions, work closely with rescue groups, and assist owners in locating lost pets.
We are working hard to support Fulton County citizens in caring for their companion pets through education on responsible pet ownership. We also offer training classes and pet retention counseling to help strengthen the human-animal bond. We at Barking Hound Village Foundation believe that pet overpopulation must be addressed in partnership with our Fulton County community. We encourage your participation at our shelter through our volunteer and foster programs.

Ways To Help:
• Keep an ID tag on your pet 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Even the most responsible pet owner may one day lose their pet and an ID tag is your pet’s ticket home.
• Spay and neuter all of your pets. The pet overpopulation problem in the Atlanta area has risen to epidemic proportions.
• Adopt a pet from Fulton County Animal Services. We have a wide variety of both purebred and mixed breed dogs, cats, puppies and kittens who need good homes. Pictures of pets available are online at www.fultonanimalservices.com
• Obey leash laws and do not let your pet roam. When not in your house or in your yard, keep your dog on a leash.
• Vaccinate and license your pets.
• Volunteer at our shelter.
• Provide a temporary home for (foster) a dog or a cat.
• Donations.
