My story

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

Meet Max, a 14-pound cutie who came to the shelter as a stray on November 17, 2025. Unfortunately, no one came to reclaim him, so now this adorable guy is ready for his second chance and a forever home.
Max is 1 year and 6 months old, up-to-date on his vaccinations, and full of energy, affection, and curiosity. He lights up when meeting new people given a little time and can’t wait to find the person or family who will love him forever.
If you think Max might be the perfect addition to your home, stop by the shelter to meet him! Come spend some time and see if he’s the right fit for you and your family. This little cutie has so much love to give!

More about this shelter

We are a non-profit orginization relying on donations. We do have a contract witht the county to provide shelter for strays brought in. We have limited space but try to get our animals back to thier families and if that can not be accomplished we work hard on finding them new homes.
We do what we do because we love animals. We are realistic in in efforts, understand the problem and work towards educating the public on what needs to be done to prevent over population.
