**Max's adoption fee has been SPONSORED for an approved application! Sadly, Max passed the one year mark at the shelter on August 2nd. Please don't let him wait one more day! He is the sweetest with people!

Max is 4 years old and was surrendered to the shelter a year ago. He's a very friendly boy who loves to go for walks. He is everyone's favorite dog to walk because he does so well on a leash and is so calm. He's very chill and go with the flow on walks. Max does not like other dogs or cats, but he would be a great dog for a first time dog family. He is a good boy who is looking for someone to love him. He gives great hugs! He is getting extremely stressed at the shelter, and he is starting to think nobody wants him! His stress levels are soaring at the shelter, and he needs to find a family to love! Can you imagine waiting a whole year for someone to choose you? Just look at that smile! If you would like to meet Max, please email the shelter at [email protected] and request an application.

From July 19-25, IACS has taken in 82 dogs. In that same time, we have had 99 dogs leave the building.

We’re sharing these numbers to demonstrate just one factor in our capacity for care. This past week, our outcomes outpaced our intakes. Every week, we need the community’s support to reduce overcrowding at the shelter.

We know not everyone can welcome a new pet into their home, but you can also help by:
• Encouraging someone who has lost their pet to check regularly at the shelter and on https://www.indylostpetalert.com.
• Searching for the owner of a lost pet in the area where you found it before surrendering it to the shelter
• Posting details about lost pet sightings to social media channels and websites (such as https://www.indylostpetalert.com and https://petcolove.org/lost)
