Hi there! I'm Shrimp, the goofball of this place. I'm 3 years young and my energy shows it! My days are filled with silly antics, playtime, and occasional moments of forgetting where I've hidden my toys. But don't let my airhead moments fool you, I'm strong as an ox. I love a good tug-of-war game and I've been known to outlast even the most energetic of my canine pals. I might not always remember where I've left my chew toy, but I never forget a friendly face. My perfect day would be filled with play, laughter, and maybe a belly rub or two. So, why should you adopt me? Well, if you're looking for a loyal friend who will keep you laughing and on your toes, I'm your guy. The humans at the shelter say they don't have a favorite but I hear them talking about me! I promise to fill your life with joy, laughter, and the occasional misplaced shoe. Meet me at the shelter or fill an application today, I will brighten your days as much as I can for as long as I can!.

More about this shelter
In 1987, an initial attempt was made to organize a local humane society in Caroline County. While this attempt did not succeed, those same dedicated volunteers were not deterred.
From our humble beginnings 30 years ago, to where we are today, we are proud to be called “the little shelter that could”.
We provide service to our community through pet adoption, Rabies Clinics, Trap-Neuter-Return, Pet Pantry, Pet Lost & Found, Re-homing, Intake Diversion, Cremation
