🎁 Our Holiday Pet Food Drive is still going on through January 4th! 🎁

Did your pup get a sweater they politely dislike?
A toy they sniffed once and declared “not for me”?
Feeling that extra holiday spirit and want to spread it around?

Pass it on to pets in need!
We’re collecting pet food, treats, toys, and gently used supplies to help local families and animals this winter. Every donation makes a real difference, and the items your pets don’t use anymore could become another pet’s new favorite thing.

You can drop donations off:
• Right here at the shelter, or
• At any of our donation boxes placed around town in partnering local businesses

Thank you for helping us keep pets fed, warm, and cared for this season. Your kindness goes further than you know! 🐾❤️🎄

Look at those eyes!! Kodiak is such a good boy!

Kodiak is a gentle breeze of calm. A warm cloud of floof, and a steady little sunbeam that follows whoever he is with.

At about 3yrs young, this beautiful Border Collie mix has quickly become a volunteer favorite. Everyone who has worked with him says the same thing: he is just a gentle guy who wants to be around people.

Kodiak has done great with respectful kids and other dogs. He is social without being pushy, playful without being wild, and gentle in all the ways that matter.

Kodiak is ready to meet you! His tail has been rehearsing joy for days!

We’re back!

We hope everyone had wonderful and happy holidays, because starting at 10 AM today, our doors are open and the pets are more than ready to greet you! The tails are wagging, the woo-woos are warming up, and everyone here is hoping today might be the day they meet their person.

Speaking of woo-woos…
Rusty would like to step forward and make his case.

This 3yr old Husky is full of your classic s***k and sass. He's full of energy and ready to play. He's got a game ready to go and will tell you all about how you're playing wrong. He doesn't really care though, he just wants to have someone to be with.

If you’ve got a little time today and some post-holiday fun in your schedule, come meet him. He just might be the highlight of your week, and you might be the highlight of his whole world. 🐾💛

🎄Merry Christmas!! 🎄

While our doors are closed today, our hearts are full thinking of the animals who found homes this season. We are also thinking of the ones still waiting for their turn, and how thankful we are for the supporters who show up for them every day from our staff, volunteers, and fosters to those who donate, and share and help spread the word about our wonderful animals. Your kindness, support, and compassion make this work possible.

From all of us here, we wish you a peaceful, cozy Christmas filled with love, comfort, and a few extra cuddles.

We will see you tomorrow when we resume regular hours at 10AM!

It's Christmas Eve! ✨🎄

This means today is our LAST DAY for our Home for the Holidays adoption event with half off adoption fees for all animals over 7mos old. It's your final chance to help a shelter pet trade their kennel for a cozy spot at home just in time for Christmas, like Addie and C**t.

Please note that the shelter will be closing early today at 3:00PM and will be closed tomorrow, Christmas day, so our staff can head home to spend time with their families.

Eugene makes himself as small and hidden as possible. When you pass his kennel, Eugene is often seen with his head buried in his blankets or bed, hoping to be invisible. The strangers, noise, constant motion... it's all too much for his sensitive soul.

We have seen hints of who he really is, the sweet, happy kitty he can be. Eugene isn't broken. He is simply overwhelmed and in need of a home to remind him he belongs.

If you have a calm household, and a soft spot for the tender-hearted, Eugene could become the most grateful and loving companion you've ever met.

Please help us share Eugene, and help us find the haven of a home he desperately needs.

🎄🐾 From Kennels to Cuddles: Ozzy’s First Christmas 🐾🎄

Some updates feel like a warm mug of cocoa for the soul, and this one is pure holiday magic.! Remember Kiko, the sweet pup with wobble dog syndrome? Today he’s Ozzy, and his family sent the most wonderful update to share!

Ozzy was adopted in August, and now at 8 months old, he is very ready for his first Christmas! There are already toys waiting under the tree just for him, and his favorite hobbies include cuddling close, chewing on his beloved toys, and proudly carrying a pinecone or stick during walks like a woodland prince.

He also has quite the personality! When life says “no,” Ozzy says “howl.” And when his people say his least-favorite phrase, “be nice,” he has a lot of opinions to share about that, too. During teething, he was convinced the whole household was made of chew toys... but hey, growing up is hard work!

Thankfully, he has a built-in best friend. His sister Banx is his rock and quite literally his bumper. He leans on her during walks, steals her toys, and barks back and forth with her like a true sibling, and she loves him right back!

The best part? He grew, and grew, and grew some more! Bigger than anyone expected, and loved even bigger than that.

We hope that every pet waiting in the shelter right now gets to experience a Christmas just like his: full of warmth, laughter, presents, and a family who adores them.

Here’s to more Happy Tails this holiday season. ❤️🐶🎄

Time's running out! There are only 3 days left of our Home for the Holidays Half-Off Adoptions! ⏰

Adoption fees for all animals over 7 months old are half off through 12/24, and time is running out to meet the wonderful pets still waiting.

Please note that our hours this week will be a little different:
• We will be closing early at 3:30 PM
• We will be closed on Christmas Day

Our adoption floors are still full, with dogs like Toby, Odin, Rusty, and Shennn holding onto the hope that this might be the week their forever family finds them. The cats are waiting just as patiently, watching the door each time someone walks by.

A quick visit could be the beginning of a lifetime for one of these animals.

If you’ve been thinking about adopting, this is the moment to stop in. A quick visit could be the beginning of a lifetime for one of these animals.

Let’s help them find the warm homes and loving people they’ve been dreaming of before the holiday countdown ends. ❤️🐾
