K9 Freedom Rides is sponsoring a spay/neuter transport for dogs and cats for Tazewell County residents on October 27th. Dogs and cats must be over 6 months old. Dogs:
$120, Cats $100. Payment is due at registration. All applicants must go to Tazewell County Animal Shelter to register and pay. Spaces are limited so sign up today. Click here for more information.
Take a dog for a walk, or a hike, or a pup cup run or a slow afternoon in the garden. It is a great way to give a dog a break from the stress of being in a kennel and we learn more about their character. You must be 18+ years to borrow a buddy, and agree to take photo's or video of the dog on your outing. Click here for information on how to apply.
