Our mission is clear to take responsibility for each and every orphaned, abandoned, abused or neglected dog and cat which reaches our doors; to take them in and shelter them; to provide the best medical and physical care possible for them; to nurture them back to health if need be; and finally to place them into warm, loving, adoptive homes where they can enjoy the lives they deserve.
We invite you to come to the shelter and find a dog or a cat that will become your lifelong friend and companion. Before you come to visit there are a few things you should make sure to bring along. Bring a current drivers license with your correct address or a state ID with a photo. Bring as many members of your family as possible (including dogs) to help make sure the new member is a good fit.
