Highlights from a photoshoot with Tristan and Gwenna, who are very smart (and sometimes stubborn) border collie siblings! We met in the morning before the summer heat took over the day and the pups had a great time!

Gwenna was locked in, Tristan got distracted by some lovely smells in the field we were in 😆

**Important Shelter Update: July 5, 2026**

Our shelter will remain **closed to the public until further notice**. At this time, all dog and cat adoptions are temporarily suspended due to confirmed cases of feline panleukopenia and canine parvovirus in our building.

Our team is making every effort to reunite owned animals with their families directly from the field whenever possible. We are also working diligently to keep our intake areas disease-free. However, with eight dogs testing positive for parvovirus since mid-April, it is likely we will continue to receive sick animals that require immediate care and isolation.

If your pet is currently in our custody please call 413-781-1484 ext. 2 so we can help reunite you with your pet. We also ask that you do not present owned pets as strays. We understand there are many reasons why people feel this is their only option, and we truly sympathize with those circumstances. However, doing so during this outbreak puts your own pet at increased risk of exposure to serious disease and further strains our resources, making it more difficult for us to help animals that are truly lost, stray, or in immediate need.

If you are considering surrendering a pet we will do everything we can to provide resources and support that may help you keep your pet or explore other alternatives.

The best protection against both feline panleukopenia and canine parvovirus is vaccination. We are currently compiling a list of low-cost and local vaccine clinics and will share that information as soon as it is available.

Thank you for your patience, and understanding during this challenging time. Our team is working tirelessly every day to contain the spread of disease, provide treatment to sick animals, and protect the health of every animal in our care. We appreciate your support as we navigate this situation.

Some pictures from my last visit to Thomas J. O'Connor Animal Control and Adoption Center! It was hot so I didn't stay out long, but I also got a chance to photograph a TJO Alum, Raven! They will post those pics!

Tinkerbell is still looking for a home but I enjoy seeing how excited she gets to go out to play!

Dolly isn't currently available for adoption but she has so much fun when we go out, she immediately goes to grab a toy. And I may or not sing 9-5 while we're out 😅
