We are now enrolling for the next 8 week session that begins on September 22nd at 6pm, but please come by the shelter to pay, fill out enrollment forms, and get more information. The first day is an orientation where dogs will be fitted with an appropriate collar, and we will have an introduction to K9 massage course. This is an important beginning step that starts teaching dogs to relax in the prescence of other dogs and people!

 Who Knew? Strange Animal Facts

We all know cats land on their feet and dogs wag their tails when happy. But do you know which animal has hairy eyes or what to call a group of kangaroos? Here’s a list of weird and wild animal facts — from Aardvark to Zebra — and other creatures in between, courtesy of the amazing animal kingdom.

 The blue whale is the loudest animal on earth.

 Cats do not have collarbones, allowing them to fit in any opening that their head can fit.

 Dalmatians are the only breed of dog that suffers from gout.

 Most full grown elephants weigh less than a blue whales tongue.

The shelter has cockatiels and parakeets available for adoption. Please call for more information.
