I
Have An Animal I Need A Home For. Can
you take it?
TLC
is not licensed
to take in animals from the public. In December 2004 TLC met with the Department
of Agriculture to determine how TLC would fit into the community structure since
Lumpkin County now has an active animal control program and a county shelter run
by PAWS.
TLC
is redefining its place in the community. Preliminary plans include:
- rehabilitation
for cats and dogs that are diseased, injured, unsocialized, the very young
or very old.
- long
term care of animals that have not been adopted or who need special care
- humane
education including but not limited to dog obedience training, school
programs, an interactive learning center, classes
- programs
that increase the human-animal bond
- disaster
response
If
the animal is aggressive or acting strangely, stay away from it and call Lumpkin County Animal
Control.
