Animal House Shelter, Inc
Rescues abused neglected dogs & cats. They help rehabilitate them mentally & physically in order to place them with the best new family.
They rescue 98% of our dogs from high 'kill' shelters, pounds & various animal control facilities in which they are usually listed as strays, and almost always scheduled to be euthanized.
Open since June 2002 and have rescued, rehabilitated and placed over 10,000 dogs and cats, to date, into their loving forever homes!
The best possible veterinary care is always given to those at Animal House Shelter.
We never decline treatment, whatever it may entail, if it means that the animal has a chance at a new and healthy life.
They strive to go above & beyond when caring for shelter animals.They understand the importance of getting to know each animal available for adoption in an effort to place them in the most perfect home possible. All dogs are walked 4-5 times a day & socialized with each other people.
The cats are housed in a large 'free roam' cat room so they can socialize all day with each other, staff, volunteers and potential adopters.

Pauley's Update 1/19/2011
My husband Randy & I are the proud parents of Pauley...who you (cody & carl's blvd.) fostered back to GREAT health.
We renamed him "HEMI"
He is a wonderful puppy! doing great!!! He picked up on potty training right away and listens so well. When we picked him up we soon settled into our new home that Randy & I had just bought and now our little family is so happy, he had no problems adjusting. He loves to play with us & is so affectionate, loves other dogs & loves our little nieces so much!! We're working right now on getting him to go for walks on the leash...he's getting there...doing well. He's in great health now. All of his check ups the vet has said he's adorable, he's gotten a clean bill of health, he is about 30lbs now!
. We're looking forward to summer hiking
& swimming with him...
Hemi has been such a great addition to the family, friends love him & we couldn't be happier. We feel so good that we adopted him! I'm so glad I found Animal House Shelter & made the trip down there.
Hemi's new Mom, Lyndsay!
Vinnie's Update 2/07/2011
Vinnie is now named Guinness for his gorgeous dark brown coat, we thought it would be a long time before we opened our hearts to another dog. Our 11 ½ year old lab, whom we had since he was a puppy, had just passed away & we were absolutely heart broken. When Dublin died there was such an emptiness in our home. & when we saw the pictures of Guinness’s liter on Petfinder.com we just fell in love. He happens to be the most mellow puppy ever! We love him so much & he has brought such joy to our family. He is such a sweetheart & loves to cuddle & to dig himself deep under the blankets to sleep. He loves his toys & is rarely without one in his mouth. He enjoys running through the snow, chasing the squirrels & has even made a friend in our neighbor’s dog. He is very smart & doing well with the training but hates his leash so far. I can’t wait for the weather to change so we can go for walks & play outside together more. Thank you so much for taking in Guinness & nursing him back to health. We are truly lucky to have him – he might be the most spoiled puppy in the world !
