MAX!

ISIS & NEKO

Mighty Max! This big boy was found as a stray; he is about 2 years old and weighs 75 lbs. Max is as big and strong as he looks. He plays hard but plays well. He's all boy and needs some training, but if you like big dogs, Max is the one to meet! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Isis and Neko are a bonded pair that were released to the shelter by their owner. Isis is a shy little lady who just doesn't understand why she is no longer in a comfortable home but instead in a small cage. Isis and Neko are 2 years old, up to date with all shots and are both fixed. Please consider saving these black beauties and giving them a second chance at a happy life. If you are interested in adopting Isis and Neko, you can fill out an adoption screening form online and we will contact you ASAP.

Adopting a Friend


We are proud to be The Trenton Bureau of Animal Control. The Trenton Bureau of Animal Control requires that ALL adopters complete an application, personal interview, and contract. All pets receive shots, worming, rabies shot (if old enough) and temperament test. The ADOPTION FEE for DOGS $120 and for CATS $100.00. All adoption fees MUST be paid in cash or money order.

The friendly staff here at The Trenton Bureau of Animal Control cares. We make every effort to match you and your lifestyle with the right pet! We invite you to come and visit our animals by appointment only. To set up an appointment and visit a dog at the shelter email Lisa@TheShelterAnimalProject.com. To set up an appointment and visit a cat at the shelter email TASCats@gmail.com. Both Lisa and Beth will be happy to set up a convenient time for you and our volunteers to meet your future pet!!

 



 

How to adopt?


1. All potential adopters MUST fill out an application or visit our dogs and cats at the shelter adoption days.

2. No holds will be given without an approved application.

3. The shelter reserves the right to deny adoptions.

4. The animals will be placed in the best possible environment for the animals.

5. Personal and vet references are required and will be checked. If you do not provide the complete name, address, and phone number for your vet (if applicable), your application will be automatically denied!

6. The Trenton Animal Shelter has a strict spay/neuter policy. There is no acceptable excuse for not having your animals spayed and neutered other than medical (i.e. heart condition). If your current animals are not spayed or neutered, you MUST provide proof from your veterinarian as to the medical reason why. Over 9,000 animals are put to sleep each day in this country. Please help stop overpopulation and the senseless destruction of these poor animals. Ask your vet about the benefits of spaying/neutering your pet. It could save their life and they could live up to 5 years longer! Low cost spay/neuter, click here
