Atlanta Pet Rescue’s main shelter is located at 720 14th Street (at Howell Mill Road) in midtown Atlanta. The facility has 3,500 square feet of space and provides safe, comfortable quarters for previously homeless, abused and/or neglected dogs and cats while they await adoption. The facility also provides an indoor, climate-controlled facility for adoptions five days a week.
