PetCo Love Foundation Grants

We are very thankful for grants we do receive at the shelter, Petco Foundation has helped us out quite often when in need. We just received a grant for $10,000 for our outside runs to get an update which was much needed! Our doors were sticking and the parts were rusty and not working very well for us, even got to be a little dangerous sometimes dealing with the doors sticking in our Quarantine room. We now have updated doors and hardware that works and is not rusted out! 

Want to drop off donations in person? Below are our hours:
Tuesday-Friday 3:00 - 6:00pm
Weekends: 1:00 - 5:00pm
We also have a donation bin located next to our front door.

We are always in need of Kuranda beds for our doggies... these beds keep our dogs up off the concrete floor and gives them a comfy, safe place to sleep. The Kuranda beds are a bit more expensive than the lower cost, less durable ones that are available on the market. These beds seem to last a few years before having to be replaced so they are much more cost-efficient in the long run. We are WISHING for the 35x23 size with green fabric (so they match our current beds). If you would like to donate a bed, it would be greatly appreciated. Beds can be shipped to: DMCHS, 2000 N. Roosevelt Ave., Burlington, Iowa 52601.

Please use the link below as there is special shelter pricing available for bed purchases being sent to our shelter! Thank you!
