We are:
We are a 501(c) 3 not-for-profit corporation that was locally established in 1904.
We provide a caring shelter for unwanted, abused, neglected or abandoned animals.
We monitor our animals on a regular basis to assure their good health. No animal’s health is jeopardized due to the cost of medical care.
We work endlessly to find good caring homes for our shelter animals.
We give all our shelter animals every chance to get adopted. No animal is euthanized due to the lack of space. We provide extra help for special needs cases.
We educate the community the responsibility of pet ownership especially the importance of spaying and neutering.
We seek programs that offer low cost spaying and neutering.
We offer the community the therapy of animals. We go out to institutions with our shelter animals for others’ joy and comfort.
We maintain an inviting shelter that welcomes the community. We embrace volunteers with appreciation and recognition.
We assure our volunteers get just as much self-satisfaction from their service as the shelter gets from their dedicated work.
We work with law enforcement entities on abuse and neglect cases.
We depend largely on the generous donations of the community.
We do not receive any subsidizing from the state, county or municipalities.
We do not receive any share of donations from national organizations, such as, the ASPCA.
