WE NEED YOUR HELP!

  Our shelter is at maximum capacity! In less than two weeks we have had to take in 9 dogs and 37 cats from unsuitable conditions. This has put a great strain on us, not only in available space, but also financially.

The story has been covered on WTAE TV: Pets Found In Deplorable Conditions

Most of these animals are sick and malnourished and require medications, vet care, vaccinations and a great deal of love and attention. Only when they are completely healthy, which could take weeks or months, depending on each individual animal, will they be altered, micro chipped and available for adoption.

If you can help us in any way, be in through a Donation, volunteering or as a foster parent, please email us, stop in or call the shelter at 724-222-7387.

Dustin Needs Your Help

 
  Dustin needs your help with surgery to be the happy, energetic dog he so wants to be.

Dustin came to us in November of 2009 through our humane officer. He is a very sweet boy, but has a terrible skin condition. It can only be controlled with medication and proper diet. After arrival and addressing his immediate needs, we noticed that Dustin was limping on his right rear leg. X-rays revealed an old leg fracture that needs to be repaired. It is a specialized surgery that carries an estimated cost of $1,600.00.

Dustin desperately needs the surgery so that he is not in pain and can be the energetic dog that he wants to be. He does go for his walks, but without this surgery his walks will become much shorter and more painful. If you would like more information on Dustin, please call his current foster mom, Megan at 724.207.0246.

If you would like to donate to help Dustin get his surgery, you can call the shelter at 724.222.7387 or click the Pay-Pal link below.

* All donations in excess of what is necessary for the animals featured will be used for our other deserving animals who find themselves in our care.

     
   

 

 
Donate a Bed

Our cats and dogs love to sleep on Kuranda beds, but we don't have enough for everyone. If you would like to donate a bed at a special wholesale price for another cat or dog to sleep in comfort, please donate a Kuranda cat or dog bed. (donations are in sets of two)
