STOP ANIMAL OVERPOPULATION. HAVE YOUR PET SPAYED OR NEUTERED!

We want to thank everyone who visits our page or our animals here at petfinder.com. We've adopted some really deserving animals to great folks from here in Shelbyville and from other places like Murfreesboro, Nashville, and Huntsville. So thanks for visiting. Be sure to tell your friends. And please come back!

Who We Are

Our group has provided all volunteer animal welfare services to Shelbyville, Bell Buckle, Wartrace, and all Bedford County for over 25 years.

We are funded strictly by donations and rely on foster homes for animals until suitable permanent homes are available. The growth in human population in our area means an equal growth in animal welfare needs. So we are constantly in need of:
* Good foster homes for dogs and cats. We never have enough of these
* Volunteers to work with animals, fundraisers, and other activities
* Donations
* New ideas and new Humane association members
If you want to contribute, comment, or join our efforts,contact us.

Donate

We always need supplies! Dog collars. Cat carriers. Dog leashes. Dog houses. Food & water bowls. Nail clippers. Animal toys. Foster parents give so much of their time and their money, too. Help us help them by contributing a gift certificate. Just click on the
Petfinder home page ad that asks if you "can spare a dime", then follow the directions. Thank you from everyone.

Adopting a friend

We love our animals and hope you will too. If you are serious about adopting one of our animals, please send us an email message at SBCHA@hotmail.com, and we'll email you an adoption application in either MSWord or Adobe Acrobat format. Applications may also be picked up at our adoption center located at 905 Madison St., Shelbyville, TN. When you complete it and get it back to us, we will review it, and then call you to discuss your request.
However, please give some thought to the following areas before adopting any pet:
* The amount of time you can give an animal
* The size and type of home you can give an animal (for instance, do you plan to keep the animal inside or in a fenced area...do you live in town or on a farm)
* The number of people and other animals in your household
* Your experience with animals
The more we know about the kind of home you can provide, the better pet/people match we can provide.
