We are in the homestretch of our shelter build and plan to open within the next 60 days. The building is nearly ready but weather has held up the driveway and parking lot needed to receive a permit to open.
As we await the shelter opening, we are excited to expand the services we can provide to the local community. We plan to network with other local shelters to provide necessary education regarding the importance of spay/neuter, vaccinations, training and pet wellness. We also plan to work with non-pet organizations to serve pet owners who find themselves in urgent personal situations and require support to keep their pets. We are part of the St. Louis Petlover Coalition and Best Friends Organization, working toward a goal of expanding "no kill" status in communities throughout the country.
Our mission is to work to end pet homelessness in Warren County. To this end we will:
- Provide community programs that educate for healthy and responsible pet care to keep pets and their people together.
- Spay/neuter/microchip for pet population control and safety.
- Help lost/found pets find their homes and provide shelter and care for dogs and cats until they find a home.
- Partner with other shelters and rescues when in need and collaborate on community programs.
