Our Dogs Call out for Help!

If you could ask them what they wanted the most in the summer (other than loving homes!), our dogs would tell you:

Flea/Tick Preventive, PLEASE!

We care for approximately 150 dogs, 1/3 of whom stay in outdoor housing, where they are under constant attack. But the cost of flea/tick preventive can literally bankrupt us! That's why our dogs need you!

You can sponsor one dog over the entire summer by providing one six-pack of preventive (Frontline Plus and Advantix work best here in the South). Think about it - a dog getting relief from a daily onslaught of ticks and fleas thanks to you! Won't you consider donating a box of preventive?*

Online shippers will allow you to enter a different "Ship To:" address - tell them to ship to:

The Animal Shelter
1201 Parkwood Drive
Anniston, AL 36201

Or bring it to: Secondhand Tails Thrift Store is at 6500 McClellan Blvd, Anniston AL 36206, open Mon-Sat 10-3

*Any amount is welcome. The bigger sizes will help more dogs, since we can give exact doses and use any leftover for another dog. We would also love to have CapStar for our cats! If we could give every cat a CapStar as they came in, we could stop fleas at the door! Thank you for anything you can do to help.

You can also make a $25 donation to our "Kick the Ticks" fund here or in any amount here.



The Animal Shelter is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization in Anniston, AL. We rely on donations and volunteers. Please visit http://theanimalshelter.net/ to help!
