We count on your donations to continue our life-saving work. As a non-profit organization with no paid staff members, our dedicated volunteers work tirelessly on behalf of local animals. And our efforts are paying off. Our innovative programs have been credited with reducing the number of animals who are euthanized at our local animal control facility. Our dream is that one day, no adoptable animals will be killed in area shelters. We thank you for helping us realize this dream.Visit the donation page to see where your money goes.
This gorgeous dog is Fiona. She turns 2yrs old this month and is hoping someone will adopt her to celebrate her birthday in her new Forever Home. Fiona is active, lots of energy, playful, kind and very smart. She wants to please you. Fiona can be a bit rambunctious when she jumps up on you to say hi and may not be a good match for small children. Fiona is a female, Australian Shepherd and weighs 40lbs. Fiona does very well going potty when you take her outside. She is used to waiting at home in her crate when you leave to keep her out of things. She lived with an older child and got along well. Fiona is not used to other animals but she met 2 male dogs here at the shelter and got along well, running and playing with them in the back yard. She would do well with a large yard or someone who is active to take her on hikes for exercise. Fiona is very smart, knows sit, go potty, down, wait and sit pretty. She is good in the car too. Fiona will bark when she is left alone so she is not recommended for an apartment, townhouse or condo.
