Our building has been experiencing an internet outage since July 11th. Our phones are connected to the Wi-Fi so we have not been able to make or receive phone calls or voicemails. We have been made aware our voicemail is full, the best way to contact us is by stopping in during our open hours. We apologize for the inconvenience and delayed notification of this issue (we have not had good cell reception or Wi-Fi at the building in order to make this post). Our IT department is working to resolve the issue.

***ADOPTED 6-28-24***

Lilly is available for adoption! She is almost 7 months old, lab/shepherd mix. Lilly still needs training but is young enough and smart enough she should catch on quick! She’s so friendly and has lots of puppy energy, the shelter is no place for her. Call to make an appointment to meet this little lady today! Our phone number is 231-882-9505.

Maxwell is available for adoption! He is a Great Dane mix, under a year old. We don’t have any history on him but it seems he would get along with another dog (doggy meet and greets required), unsure how he would do with cats and may be best in a home without young kids due to his size and lack of personal space(he’s a jumper). Max is a very friendly boy who needs more training but walks well on a leash and knows how to sit! He is a drooler so a house with many rags is a positive for him. This big, goofy boy needs to find his forever home!

Call 231-882-9505 to make an appointment to meet him or any of our other good boys and girls!

We are getting low on our dog food supply! We could use unopened 45+ pound bags of dry dog food. Purina, 4Health, Kirkland, Pedigree, Hill’s, Diamond or Blue Buffalo are some brands we have found work well with the dogs! Beef recipes don’t seem to sit well with them so chicken, salmon or lamb recipes would be best! Thank you for your continued support, we couldn’t do it without you!

***Adopted together***

Daisy and Poppy are available for adoption! These two sisters are fun, loving and rambunctious! They absolutely adore each other so we would really love for them to stay together. They are approximately 1 year old aaaand that’s about all the history we have on them. Unsure how they would be with dogs, other cats or kids. Stop in to meet them Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. (closed from 12-1) and be sure to fall in love!

Edit: Take a look at the comment section 😉 Platte Lake Veterinary Clinic we love it!
