A few reminders to the public:

1. We ask that you please watch your dog when it is outside, especially if it is a purebred. We have had an incident with a missing pet that was found quite a distance from Decatur County, the dog had been stolen and had been posted for sale on Craigslist. Help us help keep your pets safe.

2. Please think twice before using sites such as Craigslist to re-home your pet. As sad as it is, people use free pets from these sights as bait dogs in order to train their fighting dogs. Please consider using a local shelter, humane society, or rescue as a safe alternative to re-home your pet. Please contact your local shelter with any questions.

🐶🐶AVAILABLE ADOPTION🐶🐶

This is Pascal! We think that Pascal is a Lab/Heeler mix who is around 4 years old. He is dog selective, so a meet and greet is required. We are unsure if he does well with cats and/or children. He came to us as a stray so we are slowly learning about this handsome man. Pascal is house trained and he was pretty well on the leash. He LOVES treats and is a professional at sniffing them out. Pascal also loves to play and run around. Come see Pascal!

🐶🐶AVAILABLE ADOPTION🐶🐶

This is Scooter! Scooter is a male mixed breed dog who is just around 1 year old. Scoot is neutered and up to date on all his vaccines. He is small (around 25 pounds) and he will most likely not get much taller, but he could gain some weight. Scooter likes other dogs but has to be separated while eating. He gets along well with children but doesn’t have any exposure with cats. Scoot walks pretty well on the leash! He can be timid, but once you give him some treats and some attention he is the cutest lap dog. He is full of personality and we hope some of these photos showcase that. Come see Scooter man!!

🐶🐶AVAILABLE ADOPTION🐶🐶

This is Kobe!! Kobe is a male mixed breed dog who is just about 5 years old. He is neutered and up to date on his vaccines! Kobe is potty trained but could use some more training on a leash. He is just big and very excited to go on walks so he pulls. Kobe can make friends with other dogs and children, but prefers not to have kitty friends because he chases them. His adoption fee is $85. Stop by and see this handsome man!!

Pradas Story

We are extremely proud to share one of our huge success stories we have been working on for some time. This is Prada. Prada had a long long journey with us that began in July 2023. Our Director received a call about a dog that had dropped from the extreme July heat. She rushed to the scene and decided it was best to bring Prada to our care. She had heat exhaustion, Her pads were burned from hot pavement, she was underweight, had severe skin issues, an ear and eye infection, but mostly she was very very scared of human contact. It took our Kennel Techs days to be able to handle her. But with time, patience and lots of treats, slowly Prada began to trust them. Prada was brought into our ISO area because she was unable to cope with the loud sounds and traffic. It is important to stress, our staff can see through anxious behavior that is induced by stress and fear. Often these animals come to us sick and malnourished with unkind pasts always through no fault of their own. It can take days, weeks months to gain an animals trust again after trauma, and here at the GDCAS, we believe every animal deserves a second chance at life. We believe every animal is worthy of every fighting chance we can give them. Prada was well deserving of this chance. The amazing Kennel techs and staff spent days, weeks, months brining Prada to her truest self. However, her circumstances would require care we could no longer maintain at the shelter. And as much as we loved Prada and this had become her home in so many ways, Prada needed a home. A real home. But she continued to suffer from fear of Humans. So we knew her best chance was with the most experienced Bully breed rescue we knew in Indiana. This is when Our Adoption coordinator reached out to Luccis House Of Bullys Rescue. And very shortly after, they commited to pull Prada!!! this was the best case scenario for our girl. Here she will have experienced handlers who specilize in girls like Prada. But her journey did not begin there ev

Today we say good morning to you with heavy hearts. Every single kennel we have is full and some of them are doubled up. 🙁 Out of our staff, only two employees are responsible for caring for all these animals on normal business days. To clean and administer medicine for all these cats and dogs, it can take them 3-4 hours when working as a team let alone by themselves. We are asking again to please consider adoption or fostering! Our Home for the Holidays fostering program has finally launched, and we are crossing our fingers that lots of our animals can be in a loving home this year instead of a kennel. We worked extremely hard to get this fostering program off the ground and we want it to be successful. Please stop by and see us! You never know who you may take home 🩷
