The shelter will not be open regular hours today, Wenesday Jan 10th due to Dr. Appt.

01/10/2024

❗️❗️With freezing temperatures coming soon please take precautions to make sure your outside pets have adequate shelter with lots of straw. Or if you can, please bring pets into a garage, laundry room, etc at least during the night. Cats especially need a warm spot to sleep. Please don’t leave them to find a spot on their own! You can fill totes with straw, use small dog houses or simply give them some boxes with bedding & let them in your building/garage. Be sure to give outdoor pets a drink several times a day & give extra food to help them maintain body temperature. Make sure dog houses are faced away from the cold winds & put tarps up on kennels. And please report any animals in need of shelter or straw!

Let's get real for a second.

The world often paints a picture that dogs who live together are best friends and do everything together.

This is just not true. Many many many multidog household utilize management in different situations to allow dogs personal space to enjoy things such as:

- feeding time
- chew time
- play time
- attention time

This. Is. Normal.

Just because someone utilizes management, doesn't mean their dogs don't enjoy each other's company or have fun together. It just means that there are certain activities that they prefer to do on their own.

And I will tell you firsthand that implementing safe space zones and time apart can be so beneficial to the relationship between two dogs.

Think about it-- do you enjoy doing every single activity that you do at home with your spouse, family, or sibling RIGHT there? I don't think so.

So let's normalize management between dogs who live together!!

Do you want to work on your dogs' relationship and/or interactions? Go to my website here to schedule a private consult: perkedears.com/private-training-sessions

Please contact the shelter if you would like to meet Ronnie (270)499-4449 call or text. If no answer please leave a voicemail.

We are in need of pine pellets if anyone would like to donate. We always need pine pellets. We use them daily. It’s an inexpensive item to donate as well. We have a little regular cat litter that is very light & the cats are dumping their litter boxes easily. Pine pellets mixed in with the regular litter would be perfect! Tractor Supply & Rural King have pine pellets for around $5-6 a bag. Thanks!

VOLUNTEER FOUND

❗️VOLUNTEER NEEDED!! ❗️

This very big boy, Darvis has an appointment to be neutered in the morning (Monday) at 8:45am.
The ACO is having a health issue & isn’t going to be available the next few days to transport animals. Darvis needs a ride to the Daviess County Animal Shelter on 81 in Owensboro. Is anyone available to give Darvis a ride?? You will need to meet at the shelter in Calhoun at 8:15 am Monday to pick him up. He is too big to ride in a crate so I would recommend putting a big sheet or blanket down to keep car seats cleaner.

**If you can help please text (270)499-4449**

I’ve posted previously about Ronnie. He is the black lab mix that came in as a stray. Ronnie is so sweet & friendly. He gets along with other dogs & even cats. His issues with his tail & eating are getting better. Ronnie is enjoying some time in the play yard today. He is scared of a leash & usually won’t come out of his kennel. Poor Ronnie has had no one interested in him at all. No rescues or individuals. Being a plain black lab mix makes him harder to place. For those that don’t remember Ronnie also has an issue attacking himself over food. He thinks his tail is another dog. I’m working with him & the issue is improving. This sweet boy really needs a chance. I have no idea what his past was like but I want him to have a happy future with his own family. Help me make that happen for him! Please share! Or consider sponsoring Ronnie.

This cat has been at the shelter before. I remember him very well! He is really vocal & a little moody 😹 Last time his owner saw him on here! So please SHARE! Share! Share! He does not like being in a cage or in close quarters with other cats. He wants to go home.
