We are a group of dedicated professionals who provide a compassionate, caring and professional management system that protects animals – whether they be lost, abused or released by their owners – and educate the community about proper care and handling of animals and the importance of spaying/neutering to control the animal overpopulation.

Our focus is on companion animals, primarily dogs and cats. WE ARE A NO-KILL SHELTER. The animals remain at the shelter until placed with well-screened foster homes or until placed in permanent stable homes with loving and responsible owners.

Although we know we cannot save all the animals in the world, to the ones we save, we ARE the world! Please help us and be a part of their world! Donate!!! Volunteer!!! Adopt!!! Foster!!!! and, of course, Snyp, Snyp!!!!

We also:

  • Visit schools and other public places and present our programs that will foster responsible-pet ownership

  • Sponsor special projects, including fund-raising events, newsletters, coin collection canisters, and social service events.
