DOGS | KENYA Medium size spayed female Labrador Retriever mix. Approximate DOB Sept 2006
KENYA
Kenya was found in an outdoor kennel one morning when staff arrived for work. Therefore, we don't know much about her history. What we can tell you is that she is an absolute love. This dog is full of life and energy. She loves people and other dogs and will run across the room to elicit affection from anyone. It seems that someone in her past, for unknown reasons, decided to crop her ears and tail and it does not appear to be a professional job either. Despite whatever happened to her in her past, she does not seem to hold a grudge. Kenya knows that life was made for fun and adventure - if you share her philosophy, come meet this precious girl and show her the meaning of love and a forever home. She is ready for any adventure right here in the jungles of Idaho.

Who We Are
The mission of the Animal Shelter of Wood River Valley is to protect animals from neglect, abuse, and exploitation; to adopt animals to qualified homes; to reduce over-population through education and an active spay/neuter program; to advocate for their welfare through programs and services that mutually benefit animals and people, as well as promote awareness and compassion for all animal life.
Adopting a friend
Any visitor to the shelter interested in adopting one of the animals, is asked to fill out an adoption application. In conjunction with the application, we interview all potential adopters with the goal of matching the right animal with the right family and lifestyle. This is of prime importance - we endeavor to make this new home the animal's residence for life.
All of our animals must be spayed or neutered as part of our adoption contract. The adoption fees include spay / neuter costs as well as any vaccinations administered at the shelter. We also require the purchase of a dog license for all of our Blaine County residents.
Adoption Costs
Dog adoptions: $ 75.00*
Dog license: $ 10.00
Cat adoptions: $ 50.00
*If a rabies shot has been given by one of our local veterinarians, an additional $15.00 charge will apply.
The Purina Pet Company has awarded us a grant to cover adoption fees for Senior Citizens in our community. Please ask for details of this special program.
