Buckley Wants a Home

If you're looking for a fun-loving companion who enjoys getting out and about, Buckley may be the perfect match.

Buckley is always ready to explore! This five-year-old Great Dane/Hound mix has a big smile, and an even bigger sense of curiosity!

He has been with us at the shelter for over three months, and he is looking for a family who loves his adventurous heart.

Stop by the shelter during open hours to meet him!

Consider Fostering

Fostering a pet can be a crucial part of their journey to adoption. Can you open your home to a pet, temporarily? Not only will you be directly ensuring animals have a safe place to grow and heal, but it will also give CCHS the opportunity to house even more pets here at the shelter.

You might be asked to care for:
🐾 Newborns, too young to safely be at the shelter
🐾 Pets awaiting or recovering from a medical event
🐾 An animal that needs more time or space to thrive

CCHS provides the pet supplies, medical care, food, and more to help you care for your foster pet. Please consider applying if you can open your home to a pet in temporary need.
