This sweet pup was dumped in the country at the Grahn's home.  They were in the backyard, heard a truck go by slowly, stop and a door slam, then take off again.  Then they heard a pup and their dog threw a fit about the little visitor.  They took her in and called us at the shelter. 

Petunia had her ears full of ticks and was flea-covered, but we got the ticks and fleas off her, vaccinated her, dewormed her and got her spayed.  She is now ready to look for a forever home. 

Clay County Animal Rescue & Shelter is located at 375 Water Elm Lane, Flora, IL. Our phone number is 618-665-3005.  We are renovating our shelter so hours are by appointment only. 

The typical adoption fee for dogs is $150.  It includes vaccination, deworming , spay/neuter, heartworm testing on dogs of age and microchipping, which is now mandatory by state law.  Some dogs we discount to as little as $50 due to sponsorship.  Some dogs we ask a higher adoption fee, which helps us recoup expenses on heartworm treatment on other dogs.

All cats are spayed/neutered/vaccinated/flea treated/dewormed and microchipped prior to adoption.  Cat adoption fees range from $60-$100.  We spay/neuter/microchip/vaccinate and deworm all kittens and cats, prior to adoption.  Our shyer/less adoptable cats are classed as "barn cats" and are free with a completed/approved barn cat application, which can be found on our website.
