EXCESSIVE HEAT ADVISORY THROUGH 7PM THIS EVENING!

Heat indexes will reach up to 109 Degrees today.

We STRONGLY advise everyone to not leave your pets outside today, even if they have water and shelter provided. Due to this excessive heat, we have recorded temperatures in excess of 100 Degrees inside of dog houses and in the shade.

Only allow your pets out for short bathroom breaks and be sure your pets have plenty of fresh drinkable water available at all times.

Heat exhaustion and heat stroke can happen quickly in pets especially more susceptible animals such as short nosed breeds, long haired pets, and young/senior aged pets.

Lastly, keep your pets off of the pavement until after sundown. We have also recorded temperatures on asphalt and concrete in excess of 130 degrees. These temperatures will cause burns to the pads of your pets feet.

140 DOGS AND CATS ENTERED THE SHELTER SINCE MONDAY 7/22/24..... Thats an average of 24 Animals per day.

We began Monday with over 230 Animals already housed in our shelter.

Only 23 of those 140 Animals have been reclaimed.

PLEASE we are simply asking everyone that owns a dog or a cat to do the following:

1. Microchip your pets
2. Spay/Neuter your pets
3. Check your fences and secure your pets when they are outdoors
4. If you have lost your pet, please come to the shelter and reclaim your pet if it is here. Post your pet on the local Lost and Found pet social media pages.

There is no place for backyard breeding here in Montgomery County, we already have so many stray pets here at the shelter that need loving and caring homes. Please come down and visit us to find your furever family member.

If you cannot adopt right now or volunteer at the shelter, there are other ways you can help:

Share lost and found pet posts, support all of our local cat and dog rescues, Montgomery County Animal Control and the Humane Society. The rescues and Animal Control can always use cat food, dog food, treats, toys, blankets, cat litter and towels.

Do you know someone with a dog or cat, encourage them to get their pet microchipped and spayed/neutered if not already done.
