Dog & Cat Shelter, Inc.

Dog & Cat Shelter, Inc. Our Vision: Every home has a loving pet and every pet has a loving home. Our shelter also has individual outdoor runs with inside loafing areas.
(1)

Our mission: To be a safe haven for stray and surrendered pets until they can be adopted, rehabilitated or returned to their owner. We have room for individual accommodations for 38 dogs and 98 cats, but have had up to 65 dogs and 165 cats at one time. The shelter has accommodations for new arrivals, for those ready for adoption and for sick or injured animals. We have three 160' x 44' play areas

and a half mile circular walking path, where volunteers regularly exercise the dogs awaiting adoption. The Shelter houses an average of 150 animals per day. We are a No Kill shelter which means we only euthanize for extreme injury, illness or extreme aggression. Our special programs include Better Canine and Senior Dog Project.

✦ Meet Tootsie! Tootsie is estimated to be a 1 year old Cattle Dog mix. She is a high energy, happy little ball of sunshine, and chaos. She is a very sweet dog who knows no strangers, though she is still working on her manners and can be a bit over eager when saying hello. Tootsie is incredibly smart and already knows “Sit,” “down,” and potentially “Heel,” though she will need a patient owner who can set firm boundaries to help her kick some of her more mischievous habits. She absolutely loves playing with tennis balls and toys, but since she can be a bit possessive of her favorites, she would do best as in a home where she can work on sharing.

✦ Say hello to Cheech and Chong. These boys are estimated to be about 1 year old and yes, they are named after the famous duo! These handsome brothers came to the shelter semi-feral. With a lot of time and patience, they are slowly learning to trust humans. They are a bonded pair and must go to a home together. Cheech is the bolder of the pair and Chong is still a bit timid. They have slowly become more comfortable during their stay here, but new people and places are still frightening. These boys need lots of time and patience when getting adjusted. We think that makes them extra special! Cheech and Chong will practically beg for wet food, so that is a perfect training and enriching tool.

♡ Meet Wesley and Lilac! ♡

⋆˚✿˖° Oh, Wesley! This handsome Heeler mix is the definition of a focused working dog and loves to stay busy. He’s a smart, “tell it like it is” kind of guy who is very clear about his personal space and isn’t afraid to give a low growl and let you know when he doesn’t like to be told when to do something. Wesley can be a little extra cautious when meeting men while he settles in. He is always ready to jump into the car for an adventure or practice the command sit for a treat! He’s looking for a savvy owner who can set good boundaries and keep his sharp mind occupied with training, long walks or hiking. If you’re looking for a loyal partner who appreciates a leader and a good spot on the couch at the end of the day, Wesley is ready for his next job of being your best friend!

⋆˚✿˖° Miss Lilac is one of the sweetest girls around! Just like the perfume of a lilac bush in full bloom. She is playful and oh so spunky. Even though this young lady doesn't really care for other cats or dogs, she absolutely loves people! Lilac has beautiful green eyes that look at you with complete adoration. Children make this girl a bit nervous, so an adult-only household would be the perfect match for this beautiful blossom. Lilac has a huge personality packed into her petite figure. She's guaranteed to put a smile on your face!

We have received MANY stray dogs within the last couple hours. If you are missing your dog please give us a call at 307-674-7694.

If you have found a stray dog, please try to take the necessary steps on finding the owner as all of our kennels are full and we are unable to take any more at this time. Thank you for all of your patience while we try to reunite these dogs to their owners!

🧄 Meet sweet Pesto! 🧄

🌱 This girl is an old soul in a younger body. She would much rather chill in her hideaway box, then be out and about most of the day. Although she enjoys her relaxing time, she also loves to cuddle and get all the love that her heart can get. Not only that, but she is breathtakingly beautiful. Just look at her sweet face! Pesto can be a bit nervous around some cats and definitely scared around dogs, so she would do great in a one or two cat-only household.

🧄 If Pesto sounds like the puuurfect fit for you, please call 307-674-7694 or visit www.dogandcatshelter.org
