My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Available 09/22/2025

This is Burton Guster or Gus for short. He was found out in Burton, but no one came forward so we are now looking for his forever home! He is a very sweet boy. He loves people and he is good with some dogs, but not intact males. He needs a home that does not have chickens as he will chase, with training that can be broken but we want to be up front about it. He is a very smart and we think that might be from the collie mix. We do not know how he is with cats. If you are interested come into the shelter and meet him.

Inquiries are on a first come first serve basis if you are interested in adoption feel free to stop by, call us, or send us a message.

More about this shelter

Many people look to animal control and the shelter as a last resort when they have tried other options and been unsuccessful; we're working to change that image. Animal control and the shelter should be looked at as a resource; here you have people trained in handling animals and animal behaviors, people with the experience and references to help you and your animal with obedience training, to work past behavioral issues, or to help the neighbor quiet their noisy dog. The shelter is also here to help reunite lost animals with their families or to find new homes for those animals where their families can no longer provide the environment needed.
