Here is an example to what your Donations go to for our Spay And Neuter/medical fund.

A sweet gentleman named Keith called me to tell me he trapped a cat by mistake. He was trying to trap raccoons that he thought was getting in his trash. It turns out it was this sweet little girl. She apparently was hungry and trying to find food. He checked with all the neighbors and she did not belong to any of them.
We jumped into action, started making some phone calls and asked him to take her to the Linden vet who will get her spayed and get all the ticks and fleas off of her. Also found a dear friend that is willing to take her in as a property Cat/ barn Cat and she will have a wonderful place to live and never have to dig in trash for food again. 
This is the community coming together and helping each other. I am so grateful that this man did not release her and turn her back out to get pregnant and have litter after litter after litter. Tomorrow the sweet girl will have a whole new future and a great life ahead of her.
Please stop dumping Cats or moving and just leaving them for other people to deal with. She’s lucky that she’s going to have a good outcome and that we have the funds to provide her with a better life thanks to your Donations.

Do you know this dog? We received a call this morning in the 7100 block of hwy 100 west in Scottshill about this bruiser! This dog was VERY aggressive and agitated! After a long stand off with the suspect, we managed to take him into custody and he is now incarcerated at the Decatur County Animal holding Facility. This dog had a broken cable around his neck and he has been very well taken care of by his owners.
I want to take a second and commend all the officers that were involved in this arrest! I'm sad to say that due to the actions of the dog, the officers had every right to use deadly force to stop the threat, however the officers went above and beyond to contain him ! We are and will always be a "No Kill " facility unless extreme circumstances arise and give us no choice!
Thank you DCSO officers for doing a great job ! I'm proud of your work !

Everyone please share this post so we may find the owner of this giant!

Please contact us at the Sheriffs Office if you have any owner information!

Thanks again
Sheriff King.

I am posting this once again for our five dollar Friday!
We are only at $265 and we need to get to $1000. We have Spay Tennessee that is willing to match us up to $1000 but we need to at least make a minimum of 500.
If Every single person who saw this post donated five dollars, we would meet our goal. Every dollar go to Help with low cost spay and neuter in our community. We need to help control the over population of unwanted pets in our area. Cats can have up to four litters a year and puppies can have a minimum of two. With every cat & dog that gets fixed, that helps control the pet population.
Thank you to everybody who has donated so far and we appreciate those who will donate! We are community strong!!

This is Millie. Her hobbies are chasing cattle and ATVs. Her Dog Mom was taken to court by the cattle owners, and Millie has been sentenced to finding a new home. She is a terrier mix (guessing there’s some heeler in there). She is approximately three years old, weighs 20 pounds. Energetic and loves to zoom. Good with other dogs and cats as long as they stay away from her food bowl. Affectionate, not a big Barker. Leash trained, and loves to ride. She has been spayed and is up-to-date on shots, including rabies until July 2026. Are you ready to give Millie a new home? For more information about this sweet girl, contact Jackie at 731–6 14–9860.
