Through our adoption programs, we found loving homes for 644 dogs, cats and pigs. Adoptions occur at our shelter facility and at offsite events, generally at PetSmart, hosted on most weekends during the year. More than 550 animals were spayed or neutered in 2018 in our shelter program or through our financial support of the low cost spay/neuter program for non-shelter animals. We expanded and remodeled our shelter facility to include a new cat room with appropriate equipment for our homeless felines during their stay. New insulation was added in the attic to reduce our operating expense for utilities. The amount spent in 2018 was $85,026 and the cost was capitalized and included in Lands, Building and Equipment in Part X. Increased public awareness and education regarding pet ownership and the need to spay/neuter pets through our website and other media. 380526 true false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false true 0 0 true 18 true true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false false false false false false X 7 7 false false false false false false false true true false false false true true true true true false true false X Jeanne Franklin CPA 7062659160 633 Martin Road Dawsonville GA 30534 X Susan Sexton Board Member 20.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Terri Tragesser Vice President 30.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Carolyn Bowen Board Member 10.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Tim Smock President 25.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Jeanne Franklin Treasurer 10.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Donna Bolton Secretary 10.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Henry Zuckerman Board Member 10.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Ed Holton Vice President 10.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 0 false false false 0 434416 181317 434416 Adoption, Spay, & Neuter 812900 45860 45860 Dawson Cty Animal Contrct 812900 133000 133000 Microchipping 812900 170 170 RTO, Surrender & Med Fees 812900 5429 5429 Vet Services Fees 812900 165 165 184624 146 146 0 0 0 500 54 446 446 446 15516 15516 0 182402 181317 1085 1085 0 636233 185070 1085 146 0 0 0 0 0 0 198534 178534 20000 0 0 17350 17350 0 0 -3025 -3025 0 0 0 0 730 730 13130 10000 610 2520 0 0 74028 23663 50365 0 0 0 0 0 40477 40477 18294 18294 Shelter Operations 46145 42524 93 3528 Equipment Rental & Maint 45047 32391 342 12314 Spay & Neuter Fees 11611 11611 Bank & Credit Card fees 7570 1250 6320 8675 3702 4973 478566 380526 24340 73700 220442 252867 4828 0 0 0 0 0 0 34957 34957 0 1045018 339559 581031 705459 0 0 0 0 63 61 841321 993344 6402 758 6402 758 X 744156 879796 90763 112790 834919 992586 841321 993344 157667 X false true X true false X 297810 309218 284216 258560 434416 1584220 0 0 297810 309218 284216 258560 434416 1584220 13311 1570909 4 11 21 62 117 215 0 0 1584435 0.99150 0.98030 X 30866 30866 790476 271176 519300 131839 22550 109289 89763 36627 53136 2074 9206 -7132 705459 X X X X X false Fundraisers 15516 15516 15516 15516 15516 181317 Thrift Shop false false false Form 990, Part VI, Line 11b: Form 990 Review Process The Board of Directors reviews the completed Form 990 at the first meeting following receipt of the return from the preparer for filing.
