>The Spalding Shelter (Atlanta area) has implemented a
>new policy and will only adopt out animals that come into the
>shelter already spayed and neutered.  This, of course, means
>that any unaltered animal is euthanized once it passes the
>stray holding period....including ALL puppies and kittens.
>The only exception is that they will give unaltered animals
>to rescue groups.  We have been notified that there are
>currently several purebreds at the shelter that are not altered
>and will be euthanized within a day or two if a rescue group does
>not come to get them.
>
>There are 3 purebred border collie puppies, a pregnant cocker
>spaniel (it is early on in the pregnancy and a spay/abort is
>still possible) and a very sweet Lhasa Apso.  There also are
>several purebred German Shepherds at this shelter.  If any
>rescue group can take in these dogs, please call the Spalding
>Animal Shelter at 770-467-4772.
