DCHS operates the no kill in our area. DCHS is a NON-PROFIT organization which operates without Government or tax assistance. Operating costs are soaring, as is the need for space for homeless animals, as the economy worsens. Besides operating the Shelter, DCHS also assists the community in other ways including: a low cost vaccination clinic: a low cost neutering program; Humane Officers who act on reports of neglect, abuse or injury to animals; offer major support to a program that offers pet food donations to pet owners in financial crisis; a new program to aid to Jan’s horse aid and rescue ; and aid to the area Domestic Violence Shelter and abuse victims by offering shelter to their pets while in crisis. We also hope to expand our program to spay / neuter the stray and feral cat population. Our mission is to “instill humane principles and enforce laws for the prevention of cruelty, especially to children and animals, through intervention and repetitious knowledge and awareness.”
