The animal shelter was overrun with puppies this past winter! Litter after litter were either brought to the shelter or born there. As cute as they are, they’re very difficult to care for. Keeping them comfortable, healthy and sociable is a full time job!

The picture is one of our larger litters. We’re thrilled to have just adopted the last one! Carolina was the last of the litter and she went to a lovely family out-of-state. They emailed the staff and said they couldn’t be happier with her.

As you look at this litter you understand the importance of spaying and neutering. Finding appropriate homes for an endless number of puppies is a big responsibility and very difficult when you already have a shelter full of dogs. We appreciate the many individuals that donate their time at the shelter to walk and play with the puppies once they are fully protected by their vaccinations. It’s so important to the development of the puppies socialization and makes them much better pets!

Let’s just say that this picture shows how much our puppies love our Kuranda beds! As soon as we put one in the room they seem to instinctively know that they’re going to be living the good life!

Kuranda beds are hygienic, durable, chewproof and supportive dog beds. They keyword being “chewproof”. If you’d like to donate a kuranda bed to our animal shelter you can participate in the “Donade a Bed” program. The “Donate A Bed” program was created to enable pet lovers to help bring a bit of comfort to these deserving shelter animals that your pets enjoy at home. The beds are sent directly to the shelter in the donor’s name at a discount of about 30%.
