🐾VIA PAWS FOR LIFE: “We would like to clear up some of the miscommunication and confusion that many of you have hear about the shelter recently. Our main topic is how we are running the shelter, the shelter is not open only by appointments. We are open from 12-5 Tuesdays through Fridays and are open from 10-1 on Saturdays. We have moved to scheduled appointments for adoptions. If you have filled out an application to adopt and have been accepted, a scheduled appointment will allow you and the rest of your family to come and spend time with the animal of your choosing and will allow enough monitored time for meet and greet with other pets in the home. Appointments will also allow us to get more animals adopted out, if the times that we are open to the public does not work for you, a different time can be offered. If you have any questions please feel free to reach out to us and we will answer them to the best of our ability.”
