•OUR PETS OF THE WEEK: This week we’re showcasing five wonderful long-term dogs who are currently in foster homes, waiting patiently to find a family they can call their own. Adopting a dog who’s been in foster care for several months is big win—for the pooch, and new guardian, too! Potential adopters get a lot of information about their new bestie, such as—is the dog playful or serious, housetrained or trying to be, a cuddle-bug or a bit more aloof. You’ll find out if your BFF likes to chase balls, lives with another dog(s) or cat(s) or parakeet! Does your new charge enjoy hiking, agility, flyball, or is he/she more of a couch potato? And much, much more. Click the links below to see more about each of our PETS OF THE WEEK!•SPOTLIGHT ON…ROSS! Click HERE to see more of Ross!

•SHELTER UPDATE Our dog kennels are, unfortunatley, FULL. We are making a plea to animal owners to make sure your animals are microchipped, licensed or wearing name tags, in case they get out and are impounded. Reconnecting you with your animal is much easier with these IDs. Also, please check fencing or gates on your property. Unfortunately, we cannot accept new animals due to pet owners not claiming their dogs in a timely manner. Also, over the past several days, many animals have been impounded. We need owned dogs recently impounded to be picked up ,as soon as possible. Fostering is also a big help, and interested parties can can find information about our Foster Program and the Foster applicaion HERE: FOSTER INFO Check out our adoptable dogs, and if you are interested in one (or more!) , fill out an online ADOPTION APPLICATION and a staff member will contact you and make arrangements for you to meet the dog(s).

•Feral Cat Intakes: We ask that anyone wishing to surrender a TRAPPED FERAL CAT please contact the shelter, (before you trap the cat) at 463-4427 or 467-6453 and PRIOR to bringing a cat or kitten to the shelter. We will try to schedule a date/time in the near future to accept the animal. Please remember we only accept feral felines in traps and only one cat per trap. We offer free spay and neuter for feral cats IF you will return the cat to the location it has been living at. An altered feral will keep your rodent population under control! Call for more information on our Feral Cat Release program.
