We are in need of dog food! We really love to feed Purina and or pedigree, we have added some to our wish list! We are also still in need of cleaning supplies but food is our main concern! We just filled out bins up which will last us about a week in a half.

Thank you so much!!

Hi! My names Bruce, what’s your name?

The shelter staff keeps saying I’m the best boy, they don’t understand why I’m still here waiting for a family!! They say I’m kennel broke as long as I’m taken out in time!! They also say I’m a wiggle butt whatever that means! I love playing with humans and so far I’ve wanted to be best friends with every dog I’ve met, what about cats you ask? While I’m on a leash I wanna see what they are but I think they are kinda scary when they hiss at me so I just keep walking! I also like the little humans, so let’s just say I like anything or anyone that will give me belly rubs and play with me!

Can you be my hero?

Bruce
Male
Pittie
1-2 years old

Polar really doesn’t understand how he doesn’t have a family of his own yet..

Polar came to us in October when he was injured and underweight, but now as you can tell he is healed up and looking so so so much better.

Polar loves his dog cot, polar seems to be great with female dogs, male dogs are a little scary as that’s what attacked him but he warms up to them..

Can you be his hero?

Polar
Male
Pittie

We are in need of a rescue that has room for several different ages and breeds of puppies.

We have several owners waiting to surrender puppies. We need a place for them to go! We are waiting on updated pictures of them.

Unfortunately the shelter is full and we have no room for owner surrenders at this time and need a place for these babies to go.

I know we have 4 golden/ lab / a different unknown breed, pups needing a place, 3 males 1 female. They were born in May. ( waiting on updated pictures)

A litter of shep mix puppies 10-13 weeks old ( waiting on pictures )

4 female beagle/ lab mix ( waiting on pictures) roughly 10-12 weeks old.

If you are a 501c3 and approved through us and could help please send us a message! We would greatly appreciate it!!!

We are BEGGING pet owners to please spay and neuter your pets! Every shelter we follow here on Facebook are overflowing with dogs/cats 😭 rescues are full. There are several low cost spay and neuter clinics around us! Please use them!!

Our phone lines are still down as of today, we’re hoping to have them fixed ASAP. The phone is ringing through but we can’t hear anything when we answer it, it’s all static. Yesterday they worked for roughly 10 mins then went back out.

We truly do apologize, we know this is how most of everyone can get ahold of the shelter and animal control. We will update everyone as soon as it’s fixed!

Meet diesel, he is a adult male; boxer mix, who is BALL crazy. He will play fetch for days! He is 10000% kennel and house broke; best boy on the leash, knows basic commands. Diesel would prefer to be the only child ( his wishes) but he says that someone is bound to be looking for one prefect furbaby, who is thr “ golden child” he says. 🤣💙 Diesel is okay with kids, but we would prefer older kids just because he can get a little rough when playing fetch, he doesn’t realize that he wiggly butt is strong enough to knock someone over! His adoption fee is sponsored as well! So if you need a car ride loving, tennis ball chasing, bobtailed baby please contact us about diesel! He would love a new family 💙💜💙 #BallCrazy #adoptdontshop

Diesel is out and about playing today! This boy absolutely loves playing fetch!! He needs a home where he has a fenced yard an someone who is willing to play fetch with him!! He truly is an amazing dog, only down fall is he needs to be the only male, he does okay with some females, a only pet home would be the best idea!! He is ready for a new start!!
