Shrek is an unknown mix, as far as his breed mix I think there might be some Boxer in there. He's a nice, normal-energy young dog whom we pulled from a county shelter. A good boy! .He's housetrained and sits on command, and has never shown any aggression towards other dogs. We are not sure how he does with children, or cats. Shrek loves his treats, and sturdy chew-toys. Neutered and vaccinated, he's ready to go. 240 522 7416 for more information, or to schedule a meet-and greet.

Potential adopters physically meet the animal, and me. The person or couple is interviewed in person, a vet reference is checked (if possible), and I visit the home, tour inside and outside, ask any additional questions necessary, meet any live-in family members yet unmet, and sleep on my final decision. The next day I will call with a decision - either way. The adoption fee for a dog is $50, for a cat, $30. The adoption contract includes a takeback policy - in effect for the entire life of the animal- and the right to visit, with notice, and to raclaim the animal in the case of neglect or abuse.

We have just started occationally showing animals at Tractor Supply in Lavale MD. The big fundraiser each year is a yard sale in Flintstone and if I have enough volunteers I try to bring some of the shelter animals to show.

More about this shelter
Safe Shelter has been up and running for 16 years. I worked for a year at a large, long-running, widely respected no-kill shelter and this inspired me to try it myself. It is a small, low-budget operation that could really use some volunteer and foster help!
