We accept volunteers Monday-Saturday 11:00AM until 3:30PM by appointment. Volunteers will be asked to sign a waiver, provide contact information, and will require a guardian present under the age of 16.
Throughout our site you will see some of our beloved animals labeled as “Old Timers”. This does not mean they are old in age, just that they have been in our shelter longer than others and their time is running out.
We keep all of our homeless friends as long as we possibly can but due to increasing numbers of pets being left in our care we are simply running out of room. Our old timers still deserve the most loving, caring homes possible, but we have reduced their adoption fees in hopes that someone will come along and give them a second chance at a happy life.
Please consider adopting an adult dog or cat and know that by doing so you are saving a life and gaining a lifelong friend. So, take a look through our adoptable pets and read the stories of our old timers and maybe you will be able help out an animal in need.
Spaying and neutering are essential practices in responsible pet ownership, helping to prevent the overpopulation of animals in our communities. By spaying and neutering your pets, you not only reduce the number of unwanted animals entering shelters but also improve the overall health and behavior of your pet. These procedures can reduce the risk of certain cancers, eliminate the stress of heat cycles, and prevent aggressive behaviors. Join us in making a difference—one pet at a time.
