Hot weather – No animals in cars
Every year hundreds of
dogs die because their owners take their pooch with them. Those doleful eyes
begging us to let them go are hard to resist. But resist we must.
The inside of a car on a
warm day, say 80 degrees outside, can literally become an oven for our dogs in a
very short time. Cracking the windows does not provide enough cooling to help
them. Just ten minutes is dangerous. Heat Stroke kills our dogs every year.
Your dog will be happy,
healthy, and very glad to see you when you get home. Please leave them at home
when we are having warm weather. We have to love our dogs enough to be
responsible. Love is not caving into their wanting something that we know is not
their best interest.
If you see a dog locked
in a hot car please report it immediately. You will be saving that dog’s life.
Our policy on strays
All stray dogs and cats are vaccinated
upon arrival for their safety and the safety of the other dogs and cats. They
are also neutered and spayed on the sixth (6) day. All costs are the
responsibility of the owner claiming the dog. Strays are held for five (5) days
and then are for adoption.
Wish list:
Dog and kitten food needed
Dog food is really
needed-adult only.
***We need large stainless
steel bowls for water.*** We also need treats for training. Small milk bones and
other tasty treats are great.
**Please donate kitty/cat
food.** We have 11 cats/kittens now. Dry kitten food, Purina kitten food is ok.
Friskies canned food, ground only, is also greatly needed! Please help us help
them.***
We are almost out of blankets.
Please donate your clean used ones.
We really need canned and dry
cat/kitten food and litter right now. We also need small ceramic bowls for the
kitten and cat food. We also need covered litter pans.
We need towels to bathe our
dogs and cats. Please don’t throw your old towels away—we will put them to good
use.
***We need nylabones and tug
toys for the dogs/puppies and toys for our cats/kittens right now.***
You can drop all donations of
food, toys, blankets, etc. at Orofino Builders Supply. Steve and Leila Crockett

Lost and found
If you find a stray dog,
please contain the dog or cat, if you feel it is safe to do so, and then call.
Many times I get a call from someone that has a stray but by the time I get
there the person calling says the dog ran off.
Please contain in a yard or
tie the dog until I get there. We want to keep these poor dogs safe and either
find their owners or get them a wonderful lifetime home.
All stray dogs and cats are
vaccinated and wormed upon arrival for their safety and the safety of the other
dogs and cats. They are also neutered and spayed after a five (5) day waiting
period. All costs are the responsibility of the owner claiming the dog or cat.
Strays are held for five days and then are up for adoption.
If you recognize any of the
above strays and know who the owner is, please call. We want to get these
wonderful dogs and cats back to their homes. Call
