About Our Shelter

We are a small mining community with a large dog population!! We love to help pets be reunited with their families and finding new families for the ones that are not reclaimed. We work very hard in keeping our shelter & dogs clean and comfortable and treat "ALL" our dogs as if they were truly our own.

Our Adoption Process

Adopting A NEW FRIEND* Adopting your new family member is so easy!!! Our adoption fee is $40.00 plus $5.00 for a Lander County License [if applies]. All our dogs come with a spay / neuter certificate for Lander County residents which covers $50.00 off the spay /neuter procedure. All dogs are microchipped at the time of adoption and receive 30 days free Shelter Care Pet Insurance.

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 or puppy versus getting dogs for sale or puppies for sale from a dog breeder? When someone is breeding puppies, they are creating new dogs who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog or puppy and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale from a puppy breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs who must find homes. So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog or adopt a puppy at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
