There are many wonderful opportunities to assist Animals Deserve Better in our fundraisers and adoptions. Every event helps support and raise funds for our "no kill" shelter.

We welcome assistance ---from brainstorming to planning our unique events, as well as monetary donations.  Please contact us if you would like to assist in any fashion.

Sundays Ongoing
Noon - 5:00pm

We Do Adoptions Every Sunday!
Noon - 5:00pm | Johnson Ferry Road Petsmart
Merchants Walk Shopping Center

We bring adoptable puppies and young to adult dogs every Sunday. We have cats and kittens available and we can make arrangements for you to meet them in a less noisy environment. Plus we always have loads of valuable information and educational materials on pet care, training and safety that we love to share.

We try and answer any questions that you may have and help in any way with any organization to find an animal its forever home and family.

Molly (to the left) is one of our wonderful junior volunteers and has the knack of putting all our puppies to sleep - not for very long though.

Animals Deserve Better will not be at Petsmart if a national holiday falls on a Sunday or Petsmart is closed.
