Thank you from the bottom of my heart to everyone that showed up today to support our shelters and our vendors. I appreciate every single one of you.

We ended up raising $1,280 and had 19 total adoptions! I am blown away by the love we felt today from our community.

We will be calling raffle winners tomorrow!

I barely got any photos because I was running around like a crazy person, so if you have photos make sure to tag us!

Until next year!

We are so excited to have Petunia with us tomorrow. She has been with Tails Humane Society for over one year. She deserves a loving family of her own. ♥️

HoBo will be joining us Sunday at the Barking Lot Party at the Petsmart in Sterling from 11-3. HoBo is 2-3 years old, likely a boxer/pit mix. He greets us every morning with full body wiggles!!! He gets along with dogs, cats are an unknown. He loves attention! He does tend to jump on you when he’s excited, but he’s learning proper manners. His adoption fee has been lowered to $100 which includes rabies vaccine, neuter, parvo/distemper vaccine and microchip.
Stop by our tent to meet him or to ask about our other adoptables we have in the facility.
