Animal Welfare Professionals

Our shelter (like many others listed here) does a wide array of promotions throughout the holiday season. My two personal favorites that we do annually are Operation Firepaws (where donations are collected at all the Fire Department Stations throughout the County) and Home for the Holidays.

For Operation Firepaws, our amazing Fire Department staff get to come down with ambulances filled with treats, goodies, and supplies for our pet pantry clients and shelter animals. Its always very successful and they end up filling our whole education room by the end of it. Its really such a fun and engaging collaborative community event.

Additionally our Home for the Holidays promotion focuses on lining up foster homes for shelter animals through the week of Christmas. Many of these families end up adopting these pets and it allows the shelter to be relatively (almost completely) empty through the holiday week giving staff and the animals a much needed holiday reprieve and some wonderful time to celebrate joyfully. Our very talented Adoption and Development teams sprinkle in an array of other promotions throughout depending upon the trends of adoptable animals that year.
