Our Supporters

We at AHS receive help from many organizations and individuals throughout the year, without whom we would not be able to accomplish the work we do.

Volunteers

We would like to thank each of our dog and cat foster homes for opening their hearts and homes to animals in need. Thank you to Vicki Niles, Bekki Dodd, and Nikki Larson for all of your hard work and long hours spent matching our foster dogs with their new lifelong homes.
