Pets come and go, so please check back frequently! If you are no longer able to care for your pet properly, you can turn him/her into the shelter. These animals can be seen during our adoption hours. Many wonderful dogs and cats are at the shelter, waiting for a forever home. Then we try to find them the perfect home. Our goal is to love and nurture animals while they are with us. Unfortunately, this is a kill shelter, but the goal is to not have to put any animal to sleep.
