Go to
https://www.petfinder.com/member/us/fl/eglin-afb/pet-welfare-fl320/ to view our adoptable animals! Pet Welfare is a 501 (c)(3) non-profit, no-kill animal shelter located on Eglin Air Force Base in Northwest Florida. Pet Welfare has been in operation since 1982 and works to rehome cats and dogs in the Florida Panhandle, with a focus on supporting the military community by easing the hardship associated with surrendering the family cat or dog due to circumstances out of their control. We are always in need of volunteers and foster homes, and rely solely on donations from our community to keep our shelter running. Disclaimer: THIS IS A
PRIVATE ORGANIZATION. IT IS NOT A PART OF THE DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE OR ANY
OF ITS COMPONENTS AND IT HAS NO GOVERNMENTAL STATUS.

Anyone recognize this dog?

Dog was FOUND aboard NAS corry station base housing. Clark ave and smith.

Female. Black brindle. Collar was on her.

“She was a part of a pair of dogs. The other was brown dog. I didn’t see it. But neighbors informed me.

They were wondering the area for about a week before I found it.”

It was storming so he couldn’t help but do the right thing and bring her inside until owner is found.

He cannot keep the dog.

Please reach out if you have any information, thanks!

Hermes is shocked (yes, shocked) that he has not had one single application for adoption.

This sweet boy arrived at our shelter when his military family was no longer able to take care of him.

He is a sweet and quiet boy who would love a home with either older children (who love cats) or no kids.

He gets along with the other cats in our cat room and just loves a quiet spot to nap and watch the world go by.

Hermes is neutered up-to-date on shots and tests and has been micro chipped and seen by our vet

Are you the family for Hermes?
