Donations needed for county animal shelter remodel

The Flathead County Animal Shelter is very excited to announce the dog kennel renovations are underway. These renovations will allow the shelter dogs to have approximately double the space in their kennels and will also allow the dogs to be outside, getting fresh air, while living in the shelter awaiting adoption. These renovations include guillotine doors that allow closure of the kennels to the outside during extreme temperatures. 

While generously donated funds are paying for the costs of the kennel renovations, an additional $37,000 is needed to install an updated heating and air conditioning system. This system is imperative as it helps to reduce the transmission of illness among the animals.

Please consider helping your local county animal shelter and its homeless pets by donating to Flathead Shelter Friends, a non-profit group supporting the shelter.

To make an end of the year donation, please send your check to: Flathead Shelter Friends POB 1035 Kalispell, Montana 59903.

Contact Flathead Shelter Friends at 755-0961 for further information.
