Both gates in the annunciation side left wide open again!!!! Luckily, the owners got there to close them before the dogs ran into traffic!!!! PLEASE SHUT THE GATES!!!

 The gates in the catch pen have been left open many times in the past week. Please make sure to check both sides when you come in. We will attempt to put signs up as reminders. Meanwhile make sure to close the gate behind you.

Hey y’all - please do not come in this gate. We zip tied these gates closed so that they cannot be opened as the actual entrance with the catch pen is right next to this gate. Every time you break the zip ties you make this gate vulnerable and that means dogs being let out into the street. Please use the appropriate entrance and do not snap the ties that have been put in for your safety.

There are three or four spots where a jagged piece of metal that is connected to concrete is sticking up out of the dirt. We are attempting to put orange cones on these pieces so the dogs do not cut their feet. Please do not remove the cones and put them other places as they are there for a reason.
