Check out our "Vintage Dogs"

Everyone loves “The Good Old Days”…..well, we love “the Good  Old Dogs”….the VINTAGE DOGS!!  Vintage Dogs are not necessarily OLD dogs, Vintage Dogs are amazing  dogs of all ages currently in our shelter that have been waiting a long time to find the right home. 

Imagine how  sad  it must be for them, watching their doggy friends come and go, seeing other dogs getting picked by  families, while they sit waiting.  Vintage Dogs just wait, hoping that maybe today a family will stop at their kennel and choose them.

Vintage Dogs will be available to approved homes FREE!  All Vintage Dogs will be altered, current on all vaccines including rabies, micro-chipped, de-wormed AND treated for fleas and ticks.   Don’t miss this opportunity to adopt your new best friend FOR FREE and help a dog who surely believes that he or she has been forgotten.  Today is they day that YOU can change their life!

Community support through sponsorship is critical in allowing us to continue the Vintage Dog Program. Please consider sponsoring a Vintage Dog for only $50.  Your donation will go a long way in helping us keep this wonderful, life-saving program going.
