    A BIG THANKS to PawPrints Magazine for their wonderful photos of some of our current shelter dogs.

    **Please Note: The Petfinder list is updated and maintained by volunteers. There are ALWAYS more adoptable pets at the shelter than the volunteers can keep current on Petfinder. It is best to call or go to the shelter if you are looking for a specific pet. Additionaly, the Petfinder Adoptable Pet List is updated as often as possible, BUT, it is BEST to call the shelter to check on the availability of a pet BEFORE going to the shelter. IT volunteers needed.
