What Would You Do With 15,000 Animals?
15,000 animals. Can you imagine a rescue, or even a city, handling the care of 15,000 animals in the span of 9 months?
One small rescue, in one small town has done just that. By providing low cost community spay and neuter services Almost Home Rescue of Madison, South Dakota helped prevent up to 15,000 cats and dogs being born. By preventing this population boom, they have helped save owners, shelters and their city from incurring the expense of those animals.
The rescue invested $8,605.50 in veterinary fees altering 89 cats and 49 dogs in their area since the beginning of 2009. They also altered 85 dogs in rescue prior to adoption.
Almost Home has committed themselves to improving their community. Their efforts not only help pets, but help owners, families, and neighbors as well.
Congratulations to Almost Home! Keep up the good work!
