We are proud to continue the enhancements to our facilities and services available to the City of Southaven residents.
Facility Improvements
Recent improvements to our facilities include:
- Interior renovations with new finishes and furnishings
- Renovated kennel areas with floor finishes that help safety and disease control
- Improved ventilation that offers more comfortable kennel areas for our dogs
- Extended access to our exterior kennels for both staff and customers
- New controls that allow for optimized separation between animals under evaluation and those deemed healthy and ready for adoption (disease control)
Service Improvements
Recent improvements to our services include better relationships with veterinarians in our area to help with health screenings, tests, and vaccinations. These offer our animals in process for adoption an optimal condition of health. This allows us to offer newly adopting owners the best animals we can. These relationships also help us set immediate appointments for spay and neuter (per standard policy).
We have a partnership with Mississippi State School of Veterinary Medicine and they make trips annually to the shelter to spay and neuter shelter animals. Spaying and neutering animals through this service streamlines the adoption process and cuts down on pet overpopulation.
