Did you know in 2024 we saw a 𝟮𝟱% 𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗲 in intakes? Did you also know that we were only 𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿-𝗰𝗮𝗽𝗮𝗰𝗶𝘁𝘆 for 9.3% of the year? To break that down even more, only about 𝟯𝟯 𝗱𝗮𝘆𝘀 of 2024 did we have enough kennel space to move dogs around, have kennels prepared for new dogs coming in, and staff not spending almost their entire day of cleaning.

Those numbers should alarm you. Our organization cannot continue to have all 71 large dog kennels full at all times.

What does being overcapacity look like for your local shelter? Here’s a few examples:
1. Increase of poor behavior in animals. Stress, anxiousness, restlessness—you name it.
2. Less time for staff and volunteers to devote needed time to specific animals for enrichment, playgroups, etc.
3. Increase in illness shelter wide
4. Less resources we are able to provide the community
5. Less space for those animals that NEED to be surrendered for multiple reasons

By this time you have heard our plea for help time and time again. We are still at capacity. We still do not have any open kennels. 𝗪𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗽.

Please open your home to a pet in need if you are able to do so. Please donate to the hundreds of animals in our care. Please donate in-kind supplies to help us continue providing comfortable beds, blankets, and enrichment items.
