As I sit here this morning listening to my sleeping dogs, I can't help but think about what is going on in the world. Many people are at home with family and some continue to go to work. As a healthcare worker who goes in everyday and who is risking my life and that of my family, here is what I am asking. Please stay home as much as you can. Take pleasure in the extra time with family and cherish it. Family all grows and changes, especially children, and these will be precious memories for the future. Help your neighbors. Who knows if we all have what we need for the next few weeks. Lets band together to help one another. From the rescue, I would ask you not to dump pets as there is no evidence they can get the virus. If you are home and stir crazy, consider fostering. As we can not have adoption events, this means the dogs in the rescue will stay in foster care longer. Thus we do not have open fosters for more pets. More pets will go to shelters and there will be many more euthanasia's. So open your home so we can try to save as many as we can. On the positive side, there is now time to potty train, socialize and it could be a diversion for bored chidden (or adults). Financially this will be a difficult time for everyone. As a not for profit dog rescue, we depend on donations and adoption fees to be able to continue feeding and providing vet care for pets we take in. As there are no big adoption days, this will be a time we will depend on all of you more than ever before. Please be safe! As the founder of the rescue, let me say THANK YOU to everyone who supports us. THANK YOU to all the fosters and adopters. None of us could do this without all of you. Try to stay positive. I keep telling myself this too shall pass and we are strong enough to weather this storm together.

Noble Animal Welfare works under the Noble Police Department. The Animal Welfare Officer handles complaints and concerns from citizens and maintains the animal shelter. Animal Welfare can be reached by contacting the police department at (405) 872-9231 Monday – Friday 8 am – 4:30 pm. Any animal complaints, lost animals, found animals, animal concerns, etc. can be answered by the Animal Welfare Officer. We do have an animal shelter where animals are kept. It is currently open to the public Tuesday – Saturday 9 am – 6 pm. We have recently finished the new animal shelter building. The new facility is much larger and better equipped, giving our animals more room to move and be comfortable. The Noble Animal Shelter frequently has animals available for adoption. Dogs, puppies, cats, & kittens that come into the shelter without tags or microchips are able to be put up for adoption or rescue 72 hours after arriving at the shelter if the owner doesn’t claim them. If an animal comes into the shelter with tags or a microchip, the Animal Welfare will attempt to contact the owner and give them 5 days to reclaim their animal before it is available for adoption or rescue. The adoption fee is $25.00 and there is a $50.00 spay/neuter deposit required if the animal is not already fixed. Oklahoma State Law requires all shelters adopting out have this deposit paid to cut down on unwanted animals. When the animal is altered, the $50 is fully refunded to the adopter (within 60 days). The City of Noble has begun vaccinating the animals that come into our shelter, dogs for rabies and distemper and cats for rabies and feline leukemia. The Noble Animal Welfare Officer encourages you to adopt from a shelter or rescue organization to help save the lives of animals and to discourage over breeding in our state.

Animal Welfare is a division of the Stillwater Police Department and is a matter of public safety. We provide an immediate response to emergencies concerning animals within city limits to attempt apprehension (in a safe, humane manner) of any dog, cat or other domestic animal or fowl that becomes a nuisance or is a threat or danger to any resident in Stillwater. The Karen Kay Mullendore Municipal Animal Complex houses both the Stillwater Animal Welfare and the Humane Society of Stillwater (which is a private organization). One of the department’s primary responsibilities is operating an animal shelter that cares for strays and pets that have been surrendered. The shelter serves residents living within the Stillwater city limits. Animal Welfare Officers pick up animals running at large and attempt to find their owners or, if they remain unclaimed, to find adoptive homes for them. Our officers, along with the Stillwater Police Department, also enforce city code related to animals and investigate reports of cruelty and neglect. We accept dogs, cats, ferrets, domestic mice and rats, guinea pigs, and some reptiles. We also take in stray chickens and have picked up the occasional goat. Most farm animals are re-homed outside the city limits. We encourage anyone to reach out to us if they have a question about re-homing a pet so we can share all of the resources we have.

The Humane Society of Stillwater is an adoption guaranteed, nonprofit animal shelter that serves the community of Stillwater, Oklahoma. Our mission is to facilitate the placement of stray and unwanted animals and pets in desirable homes; to establish and maintain an animal shelter and associated procedures which promote the health, care and handling, and prevent over population of cats and dogs. The animals in our care are never euthanized merely because we lack space or because the animal’s stay with us has exceeded a predefined amount of time. We spay/neuter and vaccinate all of the animals in our care and do our best to give them a loving home until they are adopted into a home of their own. The Humane Society was founded in 1988 to assist the City of Stillwater Animal Welfare Department in managing homeless animals in our community. We transfer cats and dogs exclusively from Animal Welfare once they have fulfilled their allotted adoption time in the city shelter. The Humane Society of Stillwater is not affiliated with the Humane Society of the United States, and we do not receive any funding from HSUS. We do not receive any funding from the city government or United. Way. The Humane Society relies on generous donors and fundraising activies to fund our programs and facilites. Every dollar donated to the Humane Society of Stillwater remains local and is used to care for homeless cats and dogs in the Stillwater community. We do not accept any animals from the public. To surrender an animal, please go to the Animal Welfare Department or call (405) 372-0334.

Rudy's Rescue is a small, 501(c)(3) Nonprofit, all-breed rescue group founded in Weatherford, TX. We are composed of volunteers who foster dogs in their homes. We hope to save as many abandoned, abused, neglected, unwanted, or medically challenged dogs who would otherwise be euthanized. Your new family member will be up to date on vaccinations, microchipped, spayed/neutered, on heartworm/flea prevention, potty trained, or being potty trained. We want to help you the adopter, have all the tools you need to become a successful pet owner. We will support you every step of the way. Rudy's Rescue was founded in 2019 by Deirdra (Sam) Maraist and named after her beloved dog Rudy. After moving to Weatherford and volunteering with a few rescue groups she decided it was time to start her rescue with a different goal. The goal or focus is to keep a very small group of foster dogs so the best care possible can be given to each dog taken in. Rudy's does its best to keep the total number of dogs fostered at 10-15. Rudy's is an all-breed, all-age, dog rescue with the biggest focus on senior or medically challenged dogs. We take in homeless and abandoned animals from shelters and owner surrenders. We place them in foster homes until they are adopted as we do not have a facility. When medical care beyond regular vetting is necessary like heartworm treatment or other life-threatening conditions, Rudy takes care of these special needs as well. Sometimes an elderly owner is not capable of giving care any longer. It is often common for people to surrender their dogs to a shelter when they become older and sick. No matter the reason, a shelter is no place for a devoted senior pet to spend his final days. Rudy's has a place for those pets as well. If we cannot find a new home for surrendered seniors, they spend the rest of their days with us.

Free To Live is a non-profit sanctuary for stray, abandoned and mistreated dogs and cats. It is the largest no-kill sanctuary in Oklahoma. We are a small group of animal lovers who have been carrying on the mission of founders, Bill and Pat Larson, for the last three decades. We meet each dog or cat where they are socially and/or medically, providing the treatment they need to live their fullest lives. This focused care can sometimes take months to years depending on the level of need. WE BELIEVE We believe in a place where our dogs and cats can be just who they are – regardless of promise of adoption – which is why we commit to each of them for life. Even if they go into a home for just one day or ten years and then are returned, we keep them safe and healthy throughout the remainder of their lives. We know there is no place like a home, but for many of our residents – home is Free to Live. That is why we work daily to provide for not only their physical needs, but also their mental. Our enrichment program utilizes a mixture of toys, feeding patterns, play yards, walking trails and training stimulation. We are always looking for ways to help our dogs and cats thrive. Free To Live began as a dream of Bill and his late wife Pat Larson. In 1982, the Edmond couple purchased 20 acres of land north of Edmond and began construction. The Larsons and a handful of dedicated volunteers did much of the work. On August 7, 1984, Free To Live opened its doors and the Larsons’ dream became a reality. We have stayed true to their original mission of helping Oklahoma’s homeless animals. We do not take owner surrenders, because these animals already have someone to advocate for them. Our Story Our founders believed homeless dogs and cats needed our support the most, especially those who fall into rural areas and have no options but a life on their own for as long as they can survive the elements. We employ a variety of methods to help secure these abandoned animals – from humane trapping to days of sitting alongside them and earning their trust. These shy, shutdown dogs and cats deserve a chance to know love, kindness and hope. Free To Live has a professional salaried staff that includes a kennel manager, cattery manager, executive director and full and part-time maintenance and kennel/cattery staff. Volunteers are involved in every aspect of the organization. FTL is staffed 24 hours a day, every day of the year; the kennel and cattery managers live on-site in order to provide complete care. Free To Live takes in as many dogs and cats as possible; space and funds are currently available to care for approximately 150 dogs and 150 cats. Animals brought to FTL are initially placed in isolation for a minimum of 14 days. All dogs and cats are spayed or neutered, vaccinated and given general physical examinations. There are separate isolation buildings for dogs and cats; each unit has an enclosed indoor/outdoor run. Once dogs leave the isolation area, they are housed, according to their size and personality, in one of the kennel’s indoor/outdoor units. Older dogs that are no longer active enough for life in the kennel live in the office annex area that also has an enclosed, outdoor run. From the office these dogs can be closely monitored, pampered and enjoy more companionship. Our cats, after the isolation period, are transferred to the large, cheery cattery with large inside and outside play areas. The cattery is shared by the main cat population and its inside room has plenty of small cubicles for cats to nap or hide. Toys to play with and climb on fill the main play areas. Another room and outdoor play area contains some of the new arrivals and younger cats. This same room has roomy stainless steel areas for the kittens and their mothers. The dogs and cats are given 100 percent nutritionally balanced food; special diets are supplied for animals that require them. Free To Live’s kennel and cattery have large cooling fans and heaters for the animals’ comfort. For our older animals and those with medical conditions that make them more susceptible to heat, we place them in smaller buildings with access to cooling in the summer months. All of the animal areas and bedding are cleaned daily.

Many of the pups we rescue are medical cases, and that can get expensive at times but we never turn a dog or cat away if we know a little TLC and Vet care can save it’s life.

Friends with Four Paws is a non-profit, 501(c)3 organization formed to rescue animals in Oklahoma from imminent death by having mobile adoption locations and providing foster care for dogs and cats. Founded in 1998, we have matched thousands of dogs and cats with their perfect, forever homes, where they otherwise would have been sent to the Rainbow Bridge. Our program has drastically changed throughout time, as many do. We get our animals from local municipal shelters and from the general public. Once they are in our program, they go to a foster for several weeks, get all of their veterinary work done, and are listed for adoption. Our transport program allows us to move dogs through our system fairly quickly, which means we are able to save many lives. We LOVE our adopters, fosters and volunteers and would not be able to make the difference we make without them.

Homeward Bound Pug Rescue and Adoption of Oklahoma
#100 in United States, #4 in Oklahoma, #3 in Oklahoma City
• Homeward Bound was officially formed in 2003 by Gail Tucker; our director. We are an all volunteer, not for profit organization dedicated to the Pug breed. We want to give every unwanted Pug in Oklahoma and neighboring states a second chance. • We accept surrendered, unwanted, abandoned, ill, injured, elderly, alpha, all ages, all sizes and colors - any Pugs needing a home living in Oklahoma and all neighboring states. We NEVER turn a Pug away. For us, this is the essence of Pug rescue - to truly rescue Pugs. • Upon receiving a Pug, we place them in Foster care with dedicated volunteers. Fosters are essential to any rescue. While our Pugs are in a foster home, they are evaluated for behavior, likes and dislikes, etc. Because many of our Pugs come from shelters, puppy mills and neglectful homes and never receive proper training. Our fosters are diligent to work with them on potty, leash and crate training. Most importantly, fosters help socialize them to other environments, dogs and people. • Many dogs come through Homeward Bound with heartworms, elongated soft palates, eye problems, and many other health issues. Before our Pugs are adopted, they are spayed / neutered, receive all vaccines, heartworm tests and treat any health issues that we discover. • We neither breed nor do we show pugs. Our mission differs from most breeders and show people for whom the primary focus is monetary and on conformation to the breed standard and competition. • At Homeward Bound, we see to it that every Pug in need finds a loving home.

Amber, along with her mom Angie, founded Miller's Cause in 2018. Fueled by their passion for animals and the extreme need the Texas Panhandle and Oklahoma has for fosters and adopters, coupled with the number of area animals who need help. FACT: 3.7 million pets’ lives are ended every year - not because they are sick or injured, but because they are homeless. Most of these animals are healthy and adoptable and include newborn puppies and kittens. That’s not ok with us. The good news is, we can change that... We can be heroes and improve the future – to our children, our pets, our friends and community. HOW CAN YOU HELP: Rescue groups like Miller’s Cause are able to find loving forever homes for these pets, they simply need a little time… anywhere from one day to a few weeks or months. Some of these animals just need a foster family for a day or two while transportation is being set up to get them to their permanent foster or adopter or to another rescue partner.

The Underdogs are passionate individuals dedicated to rescuing and rehoming Oklahoma's unwanted animals since 2013. As our name suggests, we have a special place in our hearts for the "underdogs" of society. Often overlooked in shelters because of old age, breed, behavior, or medical conditions, these animals just need a chance to show their true nature. We believe every animal deserves a chance to find love and happiness, regardless of their background. We are entirely foster-based, meaning compassionate volunteers take animals in need into their homes. Here, they learn what being part of a family means. Once fully recovered, rehabilitated, and vetted, they are ready to find their happily ever after. Advocacy and education are cornerstones of our mission. We believe that the best way to reduce the number of homeless animals is to prevent them from entering shelters in the first place. We offer educational programs and resources to the community, focusing on responsible pet ownership and the importance of spaying and neutering. Our Mission: • Rescue and rehabilitate animals in need: We provide a safe place for abandoned, abused, and neglected animals. • Find loving forever homes: We carefully match animals with compatible families, ensuring a successful transition into their new lives. • Promote responsible pet ownership: We educate the community on the importance of spaying and neutering and provide resources to help pet owners care for their animals properly. • Advocate for animal welfare: We strive to improve the lives of animals by working with shelters, legislators, and other organizations. Our Reach: In 2022, we expanded our reach by establishing our sister organization, The Underdogs of Maine allowing us to transport rescued animals to Maine and other New England states, increasing their chances of adoption. The Underdogs Rescue understands the lifelong commitment that comes with adopting a pet. We are committed to finding the perfect match for your family and will support you every step of the way. When you adopt an Underdog, you are not only giving a homeless pet a new life, but you are also becoming part of our extended family. We rely solely on private donations to continue our vital work. Every dollar we receive goes directly towards the care and support of our rescued animals. You can help us give a homeless pet a second chance by: • Adopting: Open your home and heart to a deserving animal. • Fostering: Provide temporary care and love for an animal in need. • Volunteering: Donate your time and skills to help us care for our rescued animals. • Donating: Make a financial contribution to support our mission. Please join us in our mission to create a brighter future for animals in need. The Underdogs are a registered non-profit. All donations are tax-deductible.

In 1986, a group joined hands and Ardmore Animal Care was organized. A fund drive reaching every citizen in Ardmore was to help raise the funds for a building. The city of Ardmore donated over 13 acres and set aside funds from the old shelter. Two foundations in Ardmore made contributions to the effort; but most pleasing was the cooperation of the citizens of Ardmore who gave generously. The new shelter was completely paid for with these donated funds.

As I sit here this morning listening to my sleeping dogs, I can't help but think about what is going on in the world. Many people are at home with family and some continue to go to work. As a healthcare worker who goes in everyday and who is risking my life and that of my family, here is what I am asking. Please stay home as much as you can. Take pleasure in the extra time with family and cherish it. Family all grows and changes, especially children, and these will be precious memories for the future. Help your neighbors. Who knows if we all have what we need for the next few weeks. Lets band together to help one another. From the rescue, I would ask you not to dump pets as there is no evidence they can get the virus. If you are home and stir crazy, consider fostering. As we can not have adoption events, this means the dogs in the rescue will stay in foster care longer. Thus we do not have open fosters for more pets. More pets will go to shelters and there will be many more euthanasia's. So open your home so we can try to save as many as we can. On the positive side, there is now time to potty train, socialize and it could be a diversion for bored chidden (or adults). Financially this will be a difficult time for everyone. As a not for profit dog rescue, we depend on donations and adoption fees to be able to continue feeding and providing vet care for pets we take in. As there are no big adoption days, this will be a time we will depend on all of you more than ever before. Please be safe! As the founder of the rescue, let me say THANK YOU to everyone who supports us. THANK YOU to all the fosters and adopters. None of us could do this without all of you. Try to stay positive. I keep telling myself this too shall pass and we are strong enough to weather this storm together.

MHS History: Although we did not open our doors until 2015, the vision behind the Midlands Humane Society began back in 2006. A group of dedicated animal lovers wanted to do better for the homeless, stray and unwanted pets in our community. While the existing animal control offices, built in the 1970's, were doing all they could to provide safe housing for stray animals along with keeping our community safe from animals running at large, they didn't have the time or the resources to provide the services of a humane society. After nearly a decade of planning, fundraising and finally construction, we are happy to be here to serve the needs of the people and pets of Council Bluffs and Pottawattamie County, Iowa...and beyond! Our ability to reach far greater numbers of people for adoptions and returns to owners has increased exponentially thanks to the support or our amazing community!

Noble Animal Welfare works under the Noble Police Department. The Animal Welfare Officer handles complaints and concerns from citizens and maintains the animal shelter. Animal Welfare can be reached by contacting the police department at (405) 872-9231 Monday – Friday 8 am – 4:30 pm. Any animal complaints, lost animals, found animals, animal concerns, etc. can be answered by the Animal Welfare Officer. We do have an animal shelter where animals are kept. It is currently open to the public Tuesday – Saturday 9 am – 6 pm. We have recently finished the new animal shelter building. The new facility is much larger and better equipped, giving our animals more room to move and be comfortable. The Noble Animal Shelter frequently has animals available for adoption. Dogs, puppies, cats, & kittens that come into the shelter without tags or microchips are able to be put up for adoption or rescue 72 hours after arriving at the shelter if the owner doesn’t claim them. If an animal comes into the shelter with tags or a microchip, the Animal Welfare will attempt to contact the owner and give them 5 days to reclaim their animal before it is available for adoption or rescue. The adoption fee is $25.00 and there is a $50.00 spay/neuter deposit required if the animal is not already fixed. Oklahoma State Law requires all shelters adopting out have this deposit paid to cut down on unwanted animals. When the animal is altered, the $50 is fully refunded to the adopter (within 60 days). The City of Noble has begun vaccinating the animals that come into our shelter, dogs for rabies and distemper and cats for rabies and feline leukemia. The Noble Animal Welfare Officer encourages you to adopt from a shelter or rescue organization to help save the lives of animals and to discourage over breeding in our state.

Animal Welfare is a division of the Stillwater Police Department and is a matter of public safety. We provide an immediate response to emergencies concerning animals within city limits to attempt apprehension (in a safe, humane manner) of any dog, cat or other domestic animal or fowl that becomes a nuisance or is a threat or danger to any resident in Stillwater. The Karen Kay Mullendore Municipal Animal Complex houses both the Stillwater Animal Welfare and the Humane Society of Stillwater (which is a private organization). One of the department’s primary responsibilities is operating an animal shelter that cares for strays and pets that have been surrendered. The shelter serves residents living within the Stillwater city limits. Animal Welfare Officers pick up animals running at large and attempt to find their owners or, if they remain unclaimed, to find adoptive homes for them. Our officers, along with the Stillwater Police Department, also enforce city code related to animals and investigate reports of cruelty and neglect. We accept dogs, cats, ferrets, domestic mice and rats, guinea pigs, and some reptiles. We also take in stray chickens and have picked up the occasional goat. Most farm animals are re-homed outside the city limits. We encourage anyone to reach out to us if they have a question about re-homing a pet so we can share all of the resources we have.

The Humane Society of Stillwater is an adoption guaranteed, nonprofit animal shelter that serves the community of Stillwater, Oklahoma. Our mission is to facilitate the placement of stray and unwanted animals and pets in desirable homes; to establish and maintain an animal shelter and associated procedures which promote the health, care and handling, and prevent over population of cats and dogs. The animals in our care are never euthanized merely because we lack space or because the animal’s stay with us has exceeded a predefined amount of time. We spay/neuter and vaccinate all of the animals in our care and do our best to give them a loving home until they are adopted into a home of their own. The Humane Society was founded in 1988 to assist the City of Stillwater Animal Welfare Department in managing homeless animals in our community. We transfer cats and dogs exclusively from Animal Welfare once they have fulfilled their allotted adoption time in the city shelter. The Humane Society of Stillwater is not affiliated with the Humane Society of the United States, and we do not receive any funding from HSUS. We do not receive any funding from the city government or United. Way. The Humane Society relies on generous donors and fundraising activies to fund our programs and facilites. Every dollar donated to the Humane Society of Stillwater remains local and is used to care for homeless cats and dogs in the Stillwater community. We do not accept any animals from the public. To surrender an animal, please go to the Animal Welfare Department or call (405) 372-0334.

Animal Rescue Foundation (ARF) of Bartlesville began with two individuals who were rescuing abandoned animals in need. They provided care for them until new homes could be found. Others soon joined their efforts and ARF was officially formed in 1999 with a mission to help animals in need. In the beginning a few of our rescued cats and dogs were cared for in a local pet shop and we showed dogs on a street corner on Saturdays. Our next two rented spaces housed only cats/kittens. Since these locations could not accomodate dogs we were required to recruit foster homes. ARF had a dream of building our own rescue/adoption sanctuary for abandoned animals. With tremendous hard work from our board, village of volunteers and supporters our dream has become reality! We were able to purchase 18 acres and build an 8,000 sq ft facility that is now home to an average 60-70 dogs/puppies, cats and kittens as they wait to be adopted. Those rescued who are never adopted can live out a happy life with others of their own kind with food, water, shelter and love. ARF exists by donations from the public and private foundations. We do not receive assistance from the City, State or Federal Government. ARF is staffed by volunteers except for a small cleaning staff. ARF also offers low-cost spay/neuter clinics 4-5 times annually. Dr. Caroyn Hinkle of Rafter Veterinary Services is currently performing surgeries. Call ARF at 918-766-0991 for details or see Events for scheduled upcoming clinics.

Thousand Oaks, California has been a safe haven for Sniffspot host, Jen, since childhood. Having grown up in busy Santa Barbara, Jen, an introvert from an early age, would seek out solitude and serenity away from tourists attractions and droves of people visiting from elsewhere. “My grandparents own 60 acres about a 30 minute drive from here, and I grew up spending every summer and every holiday visiting them on the ranch,” Jen explained. “In Santa Barbara, we wouldn't go to the beach on the weekend because that's where everybody was, so you'd find places off the beaten path where the tourists weren't. For me, the ranch was just my happy place.”
