It’s been a full week here, and Creek Fest rounded things out on Saturday. Even with all the activity, we’re still taking in big numbers… and not seeing big numbers going out. That means overcrowding, and overcrowding means a more stressful environment for our animals.

This time of year is always tough — our wonderful student volunteers head home for summer break, leaving us short on hands and our dogs short on the walks and enrichment they depend on.

If you can spare a little time, our pups would love the chance to stretch their legs, sniff the world, and exercise both their bodies and their brains.
We’re here from 8–5 through the week. Just come on up and we’ll get you started.

Our animals feel the difference when the community shows up for them.
