Freeport Animal Shelter



PET OF THE WEEK

STOLEN!!!!BRODY AND BLUE
STOLEN from our shelter!!!!!! BRODY AND BLUE!!!!Brody is a 2 year old American Staffordshire mix female who is very friendly to people but not other dogs or cats. Beautiful markings and attention seeking, she will easily relate to people. A mush. Her pic is above. Blue is a beautiful Mastif/Blue nose Pitbull mix male. He is solid gray, and 5 and a half years old, unneutered. Sweet disposition but not good with children. BOTH dogs were stolen from Freeport Animal Shelter in a robbery, between early eve on 10/23/08 or early morning on 10/24. We are heartbroken that anyone would dream of breaking into our shelter and stealing our dogs. Reference the pics on our site under STOLEN to see Blue's pictures. Blues' pics are all we have of him when he was a puppy, but they at least give you a sense of head shape, breed and color. Please help us find them. We are terribly worried. Reward for information that leads to the return of the 2 dogs stolen. Please call Lea with any information at (516) 665-8710 or email her at trojo1521@gmail.com or contact Pam at: 516-330-4793 or contact Freeport Animal Shelter directly at 516-378-4340 or email them from this website. Their lives depend on it. Thanks so much for all of your help!!!!!

Who We Are

We are a private, no-kill shelter that functions as a 501c. Our organization is striving to upgrade our facility and support the local stray and abandoned animal population through the generosity of private donors and animal adoptions. As one of the oldest animal shelters on LI, we struggle to maintain quality services for our animals. Over the past year, we have seen large increases in costs for medications, veterinary care, food and mandatory kennel staff to help keep things running. When we are lucky enough to have donations that assist us with projects, we continue to upgrade our facility. Our cat room enclosures and expanded outdoor runs are just two examples of what significant monetary support can accomplish, yet we need so much more to continue our forward momentum. We want to renovate our dog runs and bring them to a higher level of quality, expand the cat enclosures, renovate our isolation and treatment areas and the list goes on and on. Winter is coming and with it, costs for heating(fuel costs have simply skyrocketed!) Our shelter is in significant and sustained need of monetary donations, food, medications, veterinary services, contracting and renovation services(electrical, plumbing, painting, carpentry, landscaping etc.), amenities for the dogs and cats(baskets, treats, dog blankets, dog risers (kuranda beds to keep them off the concrete run floors at night) etc. Freeport is trying ever so hard to raise the standards at the shelter, but will not be able to do this without generous support from the public. Remember, our physical plant is actually very, very old! If ever there was a shelter that needed benefactors, it is ours. Every penny that comes in goes to animal welfare for Freeport animals. Our organization continues to strive towards incorporating the very best of animal rescue and care with a heart, where the animals rule. If you feel shelters should function this way, then support our dreams and donate. This shelter is being run on love right now (November 2008) and very little money. We continue to desperately require generous support from the public. We function solely on donations from people such as yourselves. We love our animals and want to find them good homes. In the meantime, while they reside with us, we would like to raise their quality of life. There has been a change in the board of directors and we are determined to continue providing the best possible care as a no-kill, compassionate place for furry companions. We hope you will help us maintain and foster optimum conditions for our stray and abandoned friends who cannot advocate for themselves. We cannot do this alone and greatly appreciate those of you out there who recognize and support our ongoing efforts. Our animals, staff and volunteers heartily thank you all for your patronage and support. PLEASE VISIT our new WEBSITE and donate through PayPal. Big or small, your gifts are greatly appreciated! www.freeportanimalshelter.com www.freeportanimalshelter.com
