One of our organization’s core values is to set goals and then smash them when possible. Last year we smashed all sorts of records including helping more animals than we have ever helped in over a decade. With a continued save rate of 94% and with adoptions up by 44%, we had an amazing year. But we are not ones to stand still.
Our management team met at the beginning of January and have set up new goals for 2016.
In 2015 we:
• took in 3,286 dogs and cats which was 968 more than the year before and more than we have ever helped in a decade
• brought in 290 pets from high kill shelters in the region
• adopted out 2,467 dogs and cats which was an increase of 44% over last year
• fixed 7,035 pets at our spay/neuter clinic and fixed 1,736 feral cats
• served 1,200 children with birthday parties, camps, field trips and
other educational activities
• oriented 909 volunteers
• reduced our dog length of stay from 19 days to 14 days and cats
from 54 days to only 29 days
Over all it was an amazing year and one that this entire community should be very proud of.
But we aren’t done…
New Goals for 2016, In 2016 we want to:
• increase save rate to 95%
• take in 3,500 dogs and cats with 500 of them coming from regional shelters with a high euthanasia rate
• adopt out 2,800 dogs and cats
• fix 10,000 pets for our region at our spay/neuter clinic and provide wellness to 900 clients
• serve 2,400 children through our programs
• reduce our length of stay from 14 days to 11 days for dogs and from 29 days to 21 days for cats.
• Increase our foster care program by 50%
We are always looking to the future on new ways to help this community. With our new acquisition of 10 acres next to our current center, the future is bright and filled with so many possibilities.
