Happy New Year! -- Tuesday January 1st, 2019
2018 was full of fun. Many dogs were adopted before they were listed on the website. Hooray!
We are working closely with the Georgia Department of Agriculture, and our Southside Animal Care to be sure the dogs of 2019 will be healthy and safe.
We are always in need of folks to pull, transport, foster, fundraise, monitor the FB or website, etc. If you would like to volunteer your special talents, please contact us at info@sheltierescue-ga.org
We hope you have a healthy and happy new year!

11-04-2011: Sheltie Rescue of GA launched their new website in conjunction with RescueGroups.org, an organization dedicated to helping rescues like ours. We appreciate your indulgence as we experience the growing pains always associated with a move like this, and hope that when everything is here, you will think it was worth it. Keep checking back as we add more information to the site daily.
SRGA Reunion 2011 -- Thursday September 1st, 2011
It's almost time for the 14th annual Sheltie Rescue of GA Reunion!! Mark your calendars for SATURDAY, October 22nd, 2011. It will take place in Alpharetta at the home of one of our volunteers (same place as the last few years).
Be looking for your invitation in your email soon. If we do not have a current email address for you, please make sure to submit an Information Update Form to give us your latest details. Being able to send the invitations via email instead of through the postal service saves us hundreds of dollars every year. Money that can better be spent on saving Shelties.
This is our largest fundraiser every year, and are looking forward to your support! Hope to see you all there!

Reunion 2008 Follow-Up -- Sunday November 9th, 2008
The 2008 SRGA Rescue Reunion was a resounding success. We had over 30 people in attendance and raised nearly $2000, a modern record! A ton of items were donated for the silent auction, some of which were larger ticket items that did not get bids and will be put on eBay to raise additional funds. Beth Leonard, one of our foster moms, donated a handmade lap quilt that we raffled off. Our president, Esther Jenkins, got to take it home. The new notecards were debuted at the reunion as well. They will be available from our store shortly. Another of our volunteers, Nanette Johnson, did a grooming demo for us. It was so well received, we've decided to dedicate another get together for another one in the Spring. Stay tuned for the date. We hope to see more folks come out for next year's reunion! Should be a lot of fun!!
