Jose is our pet of the week from the folks at Lifeline.

Our pet of the week Jose brings big energy to this world, and hopes to find a home where he can fully be his beautiful, bouncy self. This grinning, happy boy is always smiling ear-to-ear, ready to take on any adventure and say “hi” to everyone he meets. He’s a social butterfly, ready to dash after squeaky toys and show you his sweet moves. Jose has lived with other dogs at the shelter and would make a great addition to any home. If you’re interested in meeting Jose, come find him today at Fulton County Animal Services at 860 Marietta Boulevard NW, or drop them an email at adoptions@fultonanimalservices.com. It’s not a commitment to adopt, but an opportunity to learn more about this awesome guy.
