Due to continuing efforts to prevent further exposure of COVID-19, the shelter will be suspending ALL adoptions until further notice to reduce personal contact. We will be open ONLY for reclaiming owned animals, and that must be made by appointment.
No volunteers will be allowed to help at the shelter, according to the tweet. Staff members will still be working at the shelter.
If you need to reclaim an animal you own, you must make an appointment first, according to the tweet.
