Hi Krissy,
I hope you don't mind I moved your post here. I saw in your bio that one of your pups will soon have an amputation. Tell us more- why the amp? When is the surgery scheduled?
You might want to bookmark Jerry's Required Reading list. This is a compilation of information on amputation, recovery and cancer treatment (if you are dealing with that).
You can also download an e-book called Three Legs & a Spare, a fully interactive PDF including the best tips and advice from more than four years of compiling Tripawds community resources for amputee dogs and their people.
I'll hold off on writing anything else- maybe you will have specific questions as you go forward.
Oh- I'm in California, near San Francisco, so I can't help you with Atlanta tripawds... do you like baseball 
.

Yes, do tell us more. And do consider the links Karen posted for the best advice. (Thanks Karen!) Good luck finding fellow Tripawds near you, thank you for posting!
