We had a great turnout for the lure-running event with Swift Paws last Saturday. We ran over 65 dogs and everyone had a blast. Thanks to Meghan and her team for all their hard work. Our volunteers too!! We raised $750 for our programs.
The building is nearing completion. Check out the photos posted on this website if you haven’t been out by the new shelter. It looks great. 
Thanks to so many individuals, groups and county officials for making 2012 the year our new shelter became a reality. The building is coming along so well and we are actually starting to plan the interior finishes on it. See the latest photo from last week below.
If you still plan to make any gifts yet this year, please consider the Friends of the Animal Shelter. We are so very close to our goal. You can make a donation directly from this website if you prefer.
Thank you for all your support.
Looking good!
The Friends of the Animal Shelter want to thank everyone for their tremendous support of our effort to complete the fundraising for our new shelter; the volunteers, the donors, our guests who attended, the staff of Marco Trattoria, our sponsors and most of all everyone at Eubanks Auctions.
The evening netted us over $34,000. We were so pleased; the patrons came in the spirit to help us achieve that success. We are very close to our goal of $350,000 so encourage everyone to remember us in your end of year giving.
