Northeast Veterinary Hospital
NEVH held a Rabies Clinic on May 24. The
doctors and staff all graciously volunteered
their time to provide discounted
vaccinations to the pets of Habersham County
as well as raise money for FOHCAS. Dr.
Cummings is a regular volunteer with FOHCAS.
She presented a check to John, our manager,
for $750!! Thank you so much!
Kissing Booth
FOHCAS hosted a "kissing booth" at the
Mountain Laurel Festival this year. We
raised over $200!

Free Spay/Neuter
Some very generous local vets have
donated free spaying or neutering to FOHCAS.
We are giving these away to folks who really
need it. If you would like to apply, please
send a detailed explanation as to why you
need or deserve this along with proof of
your income. You can mail it to FOHCAS c/o
Spay/Neuter or email it to:
chanda.defoor@gmail.com Please do
not call the animal shelter--this is being
handled through a committee of Board
members. Thanks!

The Habersham
Eight
Eight abused and neglected pit bull dogs
were saved from their previous owner (who is
serving probation and community service) by
the Animal Control officers and brought to
FOHCAS. Thanks to the hard work of Molly
Moncure, these eight pit bulls were saved
from euthanasia and taken to a wonderful
sanctuary in Texas. Thanks also goes out to
Cornelia Vet Hospital for their efforts in
saving these pitties!
