Alpine Humane Society Pet of the Week is Maenita who came to the shelter when her owner passed away. She is a happy girl, and a bundle of energy. She loves to run and play tag. She also enjoys quiet time where she loves to cuddle. She gets excited when you first take her out for a walk, but settles down nicely on-leash. She is a smart and sweet pup, and will make a wonderful addition to an active family.

Alpine Humane Society will once again begin offering free spay/neuter services for owned pets, along with free vaccines and assistance with medical care. If your pet cat or dog needs to be spayed or neutered or needs vaccines, or you have a medical situation with your pet, please call 432-837- 2532. You may have to leave a voicemail. Be sure to leave a phone number for a call back. At this time AHS is not conducting TNR for feral cats, but will provide spay/neuter services for a limited number of community cats. Call for details.

Adoptions are handled by Alpine Animal Services at the city shelter, 10 a.m.-1 p.m., and 2-6 p.m. Monday through Friday at 2900 East Old Marathon Highway.

The Alpine Humane Society Thrift Store is located at 706 North Fifth Street in Alpine. For information about adoptions or other services, call the shelter at 432-837-9030. To view adoptable pets, visit alpinehumanesociety.org.
