What we are witnessing in right now is brutal. The need for help is coming two months earlier than most winters. We have received constant pleas for assistance for dogs left outside, dogs left behind, and residents asking to surrender their dogs due to housing hardships.
We have witnessed dogs on chains in severe temperatures and we are doing our best to get those dogs surrendered AND find room to take them all in.
We don’t usually see this kind of need until January, but this winter November hit hard and December isn’t slowing down.
This is a call to action:
BRING YOUR DOGS INSIDE!
It is too cold for any dog to be left outside for any long period of time.
How can you help? Our shelter is filling up fast and soon we will be relying on our emergency boarding spaces which cost is about $50 per night, per dog.
If you can help with a night of boarding please donate at:
