K-9 Homefinders & Rescue, Inc.
Our Featured Pet...
My name is Minnie, and I am about one to two years old, and very ready for my forever home with someone that has time, and allot of love to share with me. I love to run, and play with other dogs, and play tug-o-war with people too. Most of all I want someone to love me. I will sit quietly by you, and cuddle as long as we can... Belly rubs are GREAT! If you are my special person, with a fenced yard, that needs me too, PLEASE email FranKreger@aceweb.com for an application, and tell us a little about the home you have for me, what city you are located in, and a phone number would be nice too. Please hurry. the shelter is nice, but there is no place like home....I am waiting. Application, adoption Fee, and great home are required. I will come with collar, leash, Iam's new dog pacakage, training DVD ( valued at $29 ). and all the love you can stand.
Happy Holloween Hints
This is a friendly reminder to keep track of your loose outdoor animals during October, and especially Halloween. Cats are targeted for odd sacrifices and abuse, especially black cats. Some humane societies will not adopt out black cats for the entire month of October because of this. On Halloween night (or better, the whole week) animals should be kept in the garage or home, away from pranksters, and odd-balls. Not to mention some like to overfeed animals chocolate- for fun.
We do encourage this safety over Halloween. Please keep your kitties, and black animals safe, and out of harms way....
Wish List
Our shelter's primary food supplier, Petco, will no longer be able to donate from their warehouse in Portland, OR.
The shelter is looking for another corporate food sponsor, a process which could take month's. We are hoping that the community will reach out, and help feed these animals while in our care.
The shelter needs good quality kitten, cat, puppy and dog food.
We often feed more than 40 animals each day. I just hope we can get through it.
If you would like to help, Please call Fran Kreger at 541 926-5629, and we can arrange for a drop of ,or pick up (locally) of your most needed quality food donations.
Who We Are
K-9 Homefinders & Rescue, Inc. is a no-kill, non-profit, organization that was started, here in Albany. OR. in 1980, so we have been rescuing dogs for 28 years. For most of that time we were the only dog pound rescue that was saving the dogs out of the Linn County Dog Control. We would run the ad in the newspaper so people would know to check the pound for their dogs before they were killed. There was no Internet, so placement was allot harder. A large number of dogs were being euthanized. We would take allot of the dogs that were due to be euthanized that day, and some we saved when they were walking into the room where they put them down. We paid their fees, to get them out, give them their shots, spay/neuters, and any medical care needed. We are still available for kill-shelter rescue, for adoptable dogs, as space and funds allow (We accept donations, see below for some ways to help). We are also on call if needed when a dog is injured after hours with no owner. We help owners that can't keep their pets, find loving homes for them, by advertising, and taking applications to fine the best homes for them. We are an all volunteer group, solely run by your greatly needed donations.
Adopting a friend
An Adoption Application must be approved, and then we will be glad to bring the pet you are interested in, for a home visit.
