My story

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

Meet Sandy 🌼

Sandy is a 9-year-old sweetheart with the softest eyes and an even softer heart. She is spayed, fully up to date on all core vaccines, and receives monthly preventatives—so she’s all set to focus on what matters most: finding her person.

Sandy is very shy at first and may need a little time to feel safe in new surroundings, but once she does, her sweet and gentle nature shines through. She’s the kind of dog who quietly steals your heart—no drama, just loyalty, warmth, and a calm presence by your side.

This lovely girl would do best in a patient, loving home where she can move at her own pace and enjoy the comfort she deserves. If you’re looking for a tender companion who will appreciate kindness and offer unwavering affection in return, Sandy might be your perfect match. 🐾💕

More about this shelter

We are the Jefferson County Humane Society and , except for our humane officers (who are paid very nominally), we are all volunteers! Our members were instrumental in getting a local levy passed to build a new and larger shelter and the doors opened in 2011. We are currently participating in Iams Home for the Holidays Program and the Purina Pets for People grant program. We are actively pursuing other grants and recently have been asked by the county to partner with them in the operation of the new shelter. Since we are a humane society, our main focus is on getting animals spayed and neutered so there are no more homeless pets. To that end, we bring in a mobile animal surgical clinic who performs spays and neuters at a reduced rate. We are always looking for volunteers to help us in our efforts and, of course, for financial contributions (we are a non-profit, 501 (c)3) and pet adopters! Other items such as food, treats, pet carriers, cages, leashes, collars, food bowls, etc. are also ALWAYS welcomed and appreciated. Please contact us if you have an item to be donated or would like to volunteer with us to try to save some of these homeless, but very loveable, dogs!
