MADACC will be closed Thursday, July 4, 2024

Since humans celebrate July 4th, MADACC will be closed on Thursday. This photo illustrates how your pets should be celebrating the day. Safely at home, stress-free because their family left them in their safe-space where they are comfortable, listening to soothing music, or a white noise machine. They should have full tummies, current ID tags just in case, and not in panic mode from fireworks outside the house or while joining you at your local show. If you find a stray when MADACC is closed, click here for information on what to do. When celebrating the land of the free, leave the brave at home!

Let Freedom Ring! FREE the dogs at MADACC!

Help MADACC have the space necessary to get through the Fourth of July holiday by coming in to reclaim your animal for super low fees or by adopting any dog off of stray hold for only $4! This is made possible by the generosity of Friends of MADACC!

We have around 600 animals in our care, and rather than resort to archaic methods to reduce our in house population – we want to make it as easy as possible to get animals back into the family they already love or find them new, loving homes as quickly as possible.

Please remember MADACC always has many simply amazing animals available for adoption and we will always work with owners to get their animals back home. Thank you for your support!

Short and long term fosters NEEDED! Click HERE for more info!

From a weekend out of the shelter, to socializing kittens until surgery and adoption, to helping us learn about the personality of a shy animal – we have a foster option for you! Fosters also get to be first in line to adopt their temporary roommate, or to find a home for them via your friends and family. We need help every day to ensure all animals can find a second chance and our fosters are a critical part of that! See what opportunities are available.
