We need a knowledgeable person to visit the county pound twice a week, to determine which impounded animals have been spayed or neutered. Animals that have already been spayed/neutered may have a better chance of being adopted.
We need dependable volunteers to help us keep this Pound List going.

Animal care and control agencies do their best to find loving responsible owners for as many pets as possible, but there are simply not enough homes for all these animals.
American Humane estimates more than 15 million healthy, friendly dogs and cats will be euthanized this years simply because they are "unwanted".
You can save lives and help solve the pet overpopulation tragedy by neutering or spaying your pet. This will help reduce the numbers of dogs and cats being euthanized by reducing the number of pets being born.
