Local Animal Shelter Over Capacity: Urgent Appeal for Adoption, Fostering and Volunteering Support

The animal shelter is currently over capacity due to an increase in animals, kennel renovations, and staff shortages. For the first time in years, the shelter has identified animals at risk for euthanasia, including four dogs that have been in the shelter for a long time without attracting potential adopters.

The shelter used social media to appeal for homes for these four dogs. The public responded positively, and all four dogs found homes. The shelter thanked the adoptive families and those who volunteered, fostered, and spread the word on social media.

However, the shelter continues to face challenges. It is operating at over 140% capacity and renovations are ongoing. The shelter needs a steady stream of adopters, volunteers, and fosters to avoid future euthanasia lists.

The shelter is part of the Pinal County Animal Care & Control, which strives to be a no-kill and lifesaving shelter. The public is urged to find out how they can support the shelter in maintaining this status.

In summary, despite the recent success in rehoming four at-risk dogs, the shelter is still over capacity. With ongoing public support, the shelter hopes to maintain its no-kill status and continue its lifesaving work.
