The support our community has shown over the past several days has been nothing short of incredible. ❤️
From donations and supplies to volunteering your time and sharing our posts, you have made an overwhelming difference for the dogs in our care. We are truly grateful.
Now that we've had a few days to assess the situation and get everyone settled, we have a better understanding of our most urgent needs.
Our greatest need right now is exercise pens. These pens allow us to safely separate dogs when needed, create temporary housing, and provide much-needed flexibility as we continue caring for this large number of dogs. We have included an Amazon link for anyone who would like to help by purchasing one.

The second greatest need is for financial support of our medical fund. As of this moment we have 84 dogs in care. Their vaccinations, dewormer, flea treatments, heartworm tests, medications, and spay and neuter surgeries quickly add up and any contribution is sure to go a long way. We have included a link to if you are able to donate financially.

Finally, over the next two weeks, we are anticipating a continual need of:
🐾 Towels
🐾 Blankets
🐾 Dog toys
Every donation, no matter the size, helps us provide comfort, enrichment, and quality care to dogs that have already been through so much.
We are incredibly fortunate to live in a community that consistently comes together when animals need us most. Thank you for standing beside the Wayne County Dog Shelter and for helping us give these dogs the care, compassion, and second chances they deserve. ❤️
