More about the shelter
Who We Are:
A group of volunteers in Jackson County, MS dedicated to the mission of saving animalâs lives at the Jackson County Animal Shelter. We are a 501c3 Non-profit organization incorporated in the state of Mississippi.
Mission Statement:
⢠To assist Jackson County Animal Shelter with funds, food, supplies, shelter improvements, fostering and volunteerism.
⢠To assist Jackson County Animal Shelter in securing good, reliable adoptive families for animals through social networking, transport to other states and local adoption events.
⢠To educate the public on the importance of spay and neuter laws, animal protection laws and pet owner responsibility.
How You Can Help:
We always need responsible foster families; we cannot pull animals from the local shelter unless we have safe, reliable foster homes for them to go to for training, medications, spay and neuter hold and quarantine for transports. We work in conjunction with local and out of state Rescue organizations to save as many animals as possible through this fostering, adoption and transport program.
Financially, we need funds for supplies, vet care and medicines, shelter pull fees and subsidizing transports to other states. Future projects include possible upgrades to the shelter to help reduce the spread of disease, increase animal capacity and thereby reduce euthanasia rates. We are also working on how to implement and fund low cost spay and neuter programs, micro-chipping, an adoption sponsorship fund and other life saving ideas.

About Dixon
Distance: 1,858 Miles
Dixon is a 5 year old, 30 pound beagle who was abandoned at a local shelter. Dixon loves all dogs and cats and would be good with kids. He does require a secure fence as he loves to roam and sniff. Dixon is low heartworm positive and his monthly treatment will be provided. He would love an outdoors type family and a comfy couch to chill on.
