The Animal Shelter Receives Confirmation of Grant from Maddie's Fund

Maddie's Fund®, the Pet Rescue Foundation (www.maddiesfund.org), is a family foundation established in 1999 to help fund the creation of a no-kill nation. The first step is to help create programs that guarantee loving homes for all healthy shelter dogs and cats throughout the country. The next step is to save the sick, injured and poorly behaved pets in animal shelters nationwide.

Order the Alabama
Spay-Neuter Tag!



The Alabama Veterinary Medical Foundation (ALVMF) has received approval from the Alabama Department of Revenue for individuals to begin placing orders for the Spay-Neuter license plate.  The cost of the tag is the standard $50 like other specialized tags, with $41.25 of each sale going to the Foundation to assist low-income families with the cost of spaying and neutering their pets. 
 Calhoun County residents can complete a Commitment to Purchase application  at the following website: http://www.revenue.alabama.gov

 How to Adopt

Adoption fees are $90.00 for dogs and $80.00 for cats. This helps defray the medical and boarding costs.
The adoption fee for dogs includes
a full exam, vaccinations (DA2PLP+CV, Bordatella, Rabies) spaying/neutering, heartworm check, deworming, heartworm prevention, flea preventative, and in some cases, a skin scrape.
The adoption fee for cats includes
a full exam (feleck/FIV tested, FVRCP), spaying/ neutering, rabies, deworming, and flea preventative.
If you wish to adopt a pet you will need to fill out an adoption application. You can either pick one up at the shelter or email the shelter to request an application be emailed to you.

Feed 80 dogs a day for a donation of $9.99

 

Now, you can donate a bag of PEDIGREE® Food for Dogs directly to The Animal Shelter. Each 22lb. bag contains enough food to feed one dog for about a month or approximately forty dogs a day. And for every bag that’s donated through Dogsrulegear.com, PEDIGREE® will make a matching donation to the same shelter. Together, we can help make a difference in the lives of some very special dogs.
