🚨 URGENT PLEA FOR HELP 🚨
Late last night, in conjunction with the Fulton County Sheriff’s Office, our shelter stepped in to assist with a heartbreaking cruelty case involving the removal of 27 dogs from a local home. These animals have endured conditions that no dog should ever have to experience, and they now need our community more than ever.
Of the 27 dogs removed, JABMHS has taken in 16, placing a tremendous strain on our shelter’s resources, staff, and budget. We are grateful that the Fulton County Regional SPCA and Ayres Memorial Animal Shelter have also stepped forward to assist with this case and provide care for the remaining animals.
Our staff and volunteers are working around the clock to provide these dogs with the care, comfort, and medical attention they desperately need. They will require veterinary care, lots of TLC and rehabilitation before they can begin their journey toward a better life.
We are urgently in need of:
🐾 Small breed dry dog food
Canned dog food
🐾 Blankets and bedding
🐾 Paper towels
🐾 Bleach and cleaning supplies
🐾 Monetary donations to help cover the enormous veterinary expenses that lie ahead
Every donation, no matter the size, will make a direct difference for these dogs and the many other animals already in our care.
⚠️ Please note: The shelter will be closed to the public through the weekend. This temporary closure will allow our team to focus on properly assessing, treating, and caring for these dogs while continuing to provide quality care to all of the animals currently at the shelter. Donations can still be dropped off at the shelter during this time, even while we are closed to the public.
While these dogs have a long road ahead of them, our hope is that once they have been medically cleared, rehabilitated, and deemed ready for adoption, they will each find the loving forever homes they deserve. We know our community has a big heart, and when that time comes, we will be looking for adopters willing to give these dogs the second chance they’ve never had.
We know we ask a lot of our supporters, but time and time again this community has shown incredible compassion when animals need it most. Today, we are asking for your help once again. Together, we can change the future for these dogs.
Donations can be dropped off or shipped to:
James A. Brennan Memorial Humane Society
437 Nine Mile Tree Road
Gloversville, NY 12078
