Meet Esha!

One of our dedicated volunteers, Stephanie, named Esha as her favorite dog at the shelter.  She said (among other glowing things) that it was because:

"[Esha has] a level of independence and confidence that I love. Every time I leave her, her eyes tell me she belongs in a home and she absolutely deserves that kind of security in her senior years."

Esha has been with us since March, and in that time, Stephanie isn't the only one who has come to love Esha. Other volunteers have said:

○ "Esha is a super sweet and an absolute 'walk in the park' pro. She is so happy to go out. Really makes us happy to see her so happy."
○ Another called her a silly girl and said, "Esha always does so well. She has become one of my favorite pups at the shelter. Always a wiggle worm!"

Help us find her a home?

Almost $1,200 Raised!

We would like to give a big thanks to the team at Evergreen Senior Living for inviting their residents, the community, and our pets to this afternoon's Bingo for a Cause!

Through the event, they raised $1,195 for the shelter! 

If you came out to play, thank you so much for having fun with us! Over 80 people enjoyed the afternoon and helped raise this generous amount of money. We loved seeing old friends and making new.

Evergreen Senior Living planned and hosted this fundraiser because they value pets, and the connections they have to their people. We are so grateful to have friends like them, who choose to use their skills, resources, and passion to make life better for pets in need.

Pets. Happy at Home.

We love seeing the cats, dogs, and critters that once lived in our shelter go on to live happy lives with their new families. And we LOVE when you tell us about how they're doing!
