LifeLine Animal Project Launches First-Ever FREE Adopt-a-Thon to Find Homes for 150 Dogs

ATLANTA - March 4, 2026 - PRLog -- LifeLine Animal Project will host its first-ever Super Adopt-a-Thon on Sunday, March 15, 2026, from 12–4 p.m. at Union Hill Park (1590 Little Pine Trail, Alpharetta).

In a major push to prevent shelter overcrowding, the event will feature approximately 150 adoptable dogs from all three LifeLine shelters — DeKalb County Animal Services, Fulton County Animal Services, and LifeLine's Community Animal Center.

The large-scale adoption event aims to connect families with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities — all of whom are microchipped, vaccinated, spayed/neutered, and free of charge (over $250 in value).

The Super Adopt-a-Thon represents a focused effort to build lifesaving momentum while giving each participating dog greater visibility and more opportunities to find a home.

Among the dogs expected to attend are:

• Angelica, who arrived in critical condition and has since made an inspiring recovery in foster care. Now thriving, she is ready for a permanent family.
  
  
• Dove, who has been in and out of a shelter for more than two years, is a staff and volunteer favorite. She is a tenderhearted, toy-loving cuddlebug who shines brightest with her favorite humans.
  
  
• Woofie Goldberg, who volunteers describe as a "happy-go-lucky girl," is ready for a home filled with kindness, cozy walks, and people who adore her as much as she'll adore them.

"I've always believed that when a community comes together with a shared purpose, lives change," said Erica Beard, Director of Client Services at Fulton County Animal Services. "A super adoption event isn't just about finding homes in one day — it's about building awareness, creating momentum, and ensuring every animal has the chance to be seen and chosen."

Because animals are adopted every day, participating pets may change as the event approaches. Visit LifeLineAnimal.org/super-adopt for more information.
