About Our Shelter
We are currently operating as guests of the local County Animal Shelter, functioning as the adoption agents for the animals until our adoption center is completed later in 2005.
We are a volunteer group, currently developing a foster home network, adopting pets locally and regionally, and working to expand low/cost spay/neuter options. Working with rescue groups in the northeast enables us to save more animals. After recently acquiring a van, we've been able to do more frequent and better organized transports. Our goal is to become a no-kill facility, and to work on pet licensing in conjunction with education of the community on the necessity for spaying and neutering all pets. Our Adoption Process
Our adoption fee is $75, which includes vaccinations, heartworm exam, health check, rabies shot and spay/neutering. Those interested in adoption are interviewed by a member of our adoption committee, and every attempt is made to make this placement the last one for each pet.
Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life! What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder? When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes. So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group. |
