Puppy Mill Fostering, 2009

Many of you may have heard about the hundreds of dogs and puppies seized from the Skagit county puppy mill raids in the last few months. We at the Academy find it very important to ensure that all dogs, including these, have proper socializing and the happiest, healthiest upbringing possible. That's why we have stepped in, along side other Shelters and Humane Societies to help foster some of these unfortunate dogs while there fate is being decided in the court system. We are helping to make them happy, social little dogs, so when they DO go to their new homes, they have the best start available to them.

 ** Please do not contact us about adopting these puppy mill dogs. We are housing them until the courts make a decision on where they should go. If we are able to adopt them out at a future date, they will be listed on our Adoption Dogs page, and will be made available through a riggorous home screening process. Thank you for your help and concern.
