From Franklin County Humane Society

Nuestra misión es crear una comunidad donde todos los perros y gatos tengan la oportunidad de una vida sana y feliz en un hogar amoroso mediante la promoción del rescate, la adopción y la esterilización/castración. Nuestra Clínica Planned Pethood se dedica a reducir la sobrepoblación de mascotas a través de la esterilización y también brinda servicios de bienestar para los animales en nuestro Centro de Adopción y para los animales de nuestra comunidad. También ofrecemos un programa de captura, castración, vacunación y liberación para gatos comunitarios y salvajes. Nuestro Centro de Adopción brinda una segunda oportunidad para más de 2,300 animales cada año. Acogemos a todos los animales necesitados y brindamos cuidado a los animales que han sido afectados por autos, baleados, arrojados a contenedores de basura y animales que han sido maltratados, descuidados o abandonados y abandonados a su suerte. Aceptamos perros que son positivos al gusano del corazón y cachorros que están enfermos con parvovirus y brindamos tratamiento y cuidado. Aceptamos todas las razas , todas las edades y todas las condiciones y nunca nos damos por vencidos. Somos afortunados de contar con los servicios de un entrenador de perros profesional, muchas familias de acogida compasivas y voluntarios y una maravillosa clínica veterinaria interna y una clínica veterinaria externa de servicio completo. Nuestro objetivo es rescatar, rehabilitar y realojar a los animales necesitados para que puedan tener una vida feliz y saludable.
