LifeLine Healthy Pet Event

Several Buckhead Rotarians volunteered at the LifeLine Healthy Pet Event last weekend. We enjoyed meeting some really cute animals while we helped pet owners fill in their paperwork at the check-in line. This event is central to the mission of LifeLine, which is to keep pets healthy and with their owners, preventing unnecessary shelter surrenders due to financial constraints.

A total of 1,251 animals were served!

• 946 dogs and 305 cats
• 1,007 rabies vaccines
• 1,034 cat/dog distemper vaccines
• 544 microchips
• 821 spay/neuter vouchers
