The Annual Open House is held in spring. Contests, raffles and guest booths raise money. Organizations, companies and veterinarians join us to answer questions about pet ownership, health and care.
Paws for the Cause was launched in May 2001. Paw Print certificates are made available for a small donation. Personalize them with your name or your pet's name. Merchants throughout the county display the certificates during the campaign.
The Mutt Strut (formerly Walk-A-Thon) is held in early autumn. It has grown to include contests, awards and special guests. We have live music, a chicken barbecue and more!
Our Pasta Dinner and White Elephant Sale is held each October. Plan to join us for a generous meal and terrific bargains on pre-enjoyed and craft items.
Tree of Lights for the Animals extends from Thanksgiving through the Christmas and Hanukkah holidays. You are invited to help decorate the shelter's holiday tree with lights and ornaments by making donations in honor or memory of a pet.

Pet-related Events

We participate in the national Spay Day event promoted by the Doris Day Animal Foundation and PETsMART. The goal of the event is to call attention to the problem of pet overpopulation, and to recognize the efforts by local communities and groups to combat the problem. We hold drawings for free spay/neuter certificates.
Adopt-A-Pet Days improve our presence in the community. One of our volunteers takes cats, kittens and a dog or puppy to local businesses 30-40 times a year.
