Mission Valley Animal Shelter: Bar Dog Operation Grant Report

How did this grant help your organization and the pets in your care?

This grant helped us install a disinfectant system in our puppy area. By installing this, we have been able to disinfect more hard surfaces that are in this area. This helps our organization and pets so that we can be more cautious in the safety and health of all of our animals.

How many pets did this grant help?

We expect this to help about 200+ animals this year.

Please provide a story of one or more specific pets this grant helped.

Recently we had a gentleman turn over five puppies with parvo.

We lost two of the puppies within 24 hours. The remaining three puppies are prospering fast and, with the help of the rescue disinfectant system, we are able to keep the shelter parvo-free.

One of the puppies will be ready to go to his new home within the next week. We are just waiting for him to be neutered.
