Able Acres Farm
Able Acres Farm came to the Atlantic County Animal Shelter to volunteer their time to help our animals. The crew worked with adoptable dogs Copper & Red on their basic obedience training and their social skills. Both of our pups had a great time interacting with the folks from Able Acres! After spending valuable time with Copper & Red, the team moved inside for the next assignment. They spent time with our adoptable cats working on human interactions and socializing the kitties.
Employees from Atlantic City Electric Volunteer
A group of employees from Atlantic City Electric volunteered at the Shelter this week to help socialize some of our adoptable dogs. Copper, Red, and Kimchi enjoyed some games, treats and cuddles. Kylo seems to really love the belly rubs.
The team from ACE had a great time with the dogs.
Arthur Rann Elementary School in Galloway Township
A shout out and big Thank You to the students, staff, and families of the Arthur Rann Elementary School in Galloway Township!
In a letter to the shelter they wrote: “The students, staff, and families of Arthur Rann Elementary School would like to donate pet supplies to the cats and dogs of Atlantic County. During our “Week of Respect” we learned about respecting ourselves, our community members, our planet, and our animal friends. We asked our students to demonstrate respect by donating supplies to animals that may need extra care and help. Thank you for accepting our donations and helping us show our local animals respect and kindness.”
Businesses gather donations
Our friends at Ben Franklin Electric, 1 Hour Plumbing, and Mr. Sparky stopped by with a generous donation for our shelter animals! Thank you for supporting the shelter and everything you do for the community!
Arc of Atlantic County Volunteer Program
As part of an ongoing partnership between the Arc of Atlantic County and the Atlantic County Animal Shelter, Tiffany the Pittie went to work on her social and obedience skills with the individuals at the Arc’s Day Program. She shared her abundance of love and affection with everyone she met.
The individuals worked with Tiffany on basic obedience training, such as sit and stay.
This partnership benefits both the individuals as well as the animals involved.
