"Adopt-A-Pet" Pet Adoption Program
In 2017 our intake of cats and dogs fell by 7% which was encouraging with all of the spay/ neuter programs we offered, but we are proud to report that 91% of the animals who entered the shelter were placed into homes, went to Breed specific rescue groups, returned to their colony or placed in barn homes. What this shows is that a team of people is necessary to help these pets get evaluated, treated, spay/neutered and placed where they can live out their lives.
1370 dogs, cats, kittens and puppies made their way to our shelter in 2017.

Twin Cedar K9 - "Second Chance"
This program takes in shelter dogs deemed 'unadoptable' for a variety of reasons, and puts them through a 'Canine Good Citizen' training system to correct behavioral issues. Once these dogs have graduated, they are offered for adoption to forever homes. In 2021, 10 dogs were transferred to Twin Cedar K9 with all 10 of those already adopted to their new homes for a total of 403 successful adoptions since the inception of the program.
