.WE DO NOT HAVE A STAFF VET.THE COUNTY PAYS FULL VET PRICES FOR ANY SERVICES WE RECIEVE.IF AN ANIMAL CAN BE SPAYED/NEUTURED IT'S BECAUSE A RESCUE GROUP SUPPLIED CERTIFICATES.IF AN ANIMALS BIO SAYS IT HAS SHOTS THAT MEANS THEY HAVE A PARVO COMBO SHOT. THE COUNTY DOES NOT PAY FOR A RABIE SHOT.We have the right to refuse an adoption if we do not feel the adoption would not be in the best interest of the pet.This seldom happens , but does once in awhile.We do adopt out all guard dog breeds to the right homes and the right homes only.
