Happy Tails Latest Achievements
While we haven't given up on our dream to build an animal shelter here in Jackson County - we have started working on rescuing and adopting out dogs without having an actual shelter site.
Two of our members are currently going daily to the City Pound to walk the dogs that are there. Our organization is making sure these dogs have clean kennels and are fed daily.
Each week we are trying to take out dogs and once they are examined by either of our local veterinarians and deemed healthy for adoption, these dogs receive their vaccinations and are spayed/neutered. Happy Tails is paying for these services. We then are keeping them in a foster home until they can be taken to our PetSmart Adoption day. Our adoption fee for these dogs is only $50.00.
Please check out the dogs that are available or contact Susan Strickland at 361-782-8417.
Besides monetary donations for the building of our shelter, we are also seeking donations of dog food to feed the dogs we are rescuing. If you can help with any type of donation whether it be monetary or dog food, please call Cherie Robinson at 361-771-3909. If you'd like to help walk dogs at the City Pound, please call Susan Strickland at 782-8417. You must be 18 years of age or older.

The purpose of Jackson County Happy Tails is to take in strays and owner-relinquished pets, and to rescue adoptable dogs from the local pound. Once they have been evaluated and deemed adoptable, we will strive to give them quality care until they are adopted out. We will also provide education for the community to increase responsible pet ownership.
Until our shelter becomes a reality, we are working with the City of Edna Pound to help find homes for the dogs who are currently being held there. PLEASE SEE PICTURE LINK TO ADOPT A DOG CURRENTLY BEING HELD AT THE CITY POUND. Call 782-5271 to make an appointment to see these dogs or call the phone number listed under the picture.

We Need Your Help!
As a non-profit organization, we are relying totally on donations/pledges to get our organization started. We currently have about $9,000 collected but we will need so much more to build our shelter. Please look into your hearts and help the stray dogs and cats in Jackson County finally have a safe place to be brought to and give them a chance be adopted by a loving family.
