My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hi there, I`m Barkus! I`m a pretty new face around here, but I`m already known for my sweet, friendly nature. I love people, and I`m always excited to meet new friends. My playful and goofy side shines through, especially when I get to play with my favorite squeaky toys. I must admit, I can be a bit loud in my kennel. That`s just because I`m so eager to get out and play! I`m looking for a family who will appreciate my fun-loving spirit. With me, every day is an adventure. My ideal home would be one where I can share my love and energy. So, why not consider adding a little Barkus to your life? I promise, you won`t regret it!

More about this shelter

Founded by the Camden County Board of Chosen Freeholders in 1997, the Camden County Animal Shelter (CCAS) has been fighting to reduce the overwhelming stray/unwanted animal population in its county. CCAS is an open admissions shelter and takes in over 6,000 companion animals from 17 municipalities in Camden County every year. In 2004, the Animal Welfare Society of Camden County, which currently runs the Camden County Animal Shelter, took over the shelter's activities. CCAS now does three major things: provide shelter for stray/unwanted animals, find those animals loving homes, and provide low-cost spay/neuter services.

CCAS is an open admissions shelter. Its 40+ full and part-time staff work hard to find loving homes for each and every animal that enters the shelter's doors. The 2011 Animal Intake and Disposition Survey shows that Camden County performs much better than its surrounding counties.

In addition to taking in animals, CCAS holds a multitude of events every year in order to help those looking to adopt to find the animal of their dreams, be it an adoption event or a full-blown gala. Lastly, CCAS provides Camden County with low-cost spay and neutering options. By providing the service at such a cheap cost, CCAS hopes to reduce the number of stray/unwanted animals in the county.
