  Why We Need Your Help
 
 
  • Since we do not euthanize for space and do not put a time limit on adoptable animals, they can remain in our care for many, many months, sometimes surpassing a year.

  • The approximate average length of stay of our dogs is 2-3 weeks, while cats are closer to 2-3 months due to the large volume.

  • The approximate average cost to care for a dog until it’s adopted is $350, with a cat ranging from $750-$1000. Multiply those numbers by 4,000, the average number of animals we care for each year, to see how the costs can really add up!

  • In addition to general care, many of our animals need medical treatment for illness and injuries.

  • We do not receive government funding, or funding
    from any state or national humane organizations.
