My story

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

Dixie is a sweet 7-year-old female black lab looking for her forever home. This big, lovable girl has spent most of her life outdoors in a yard with an invisible fence and sometimes in a garage, but she’s house trained and excited to settle into a cozy indoor life. Dixie’s ideal home would include a yard where she can safely run around and enjoy her favorite activities: playing fetch and catching frisbees! She’s full of energy and always ready for a fun game with her humans.

Although Dixie’s comfortable with other dogs, she hasn’t lived with children before, so she’d do best with teens or adults who understand that she can get a little excited and jump (she’s a big girl, after all!). She tolerates cats who give her space, so a home with independent or dog-savvy cats would be ideal.

Dixie is as cuddly as she is playful and will happily settle in by your side after playtime for some snuggles. If you’re looking for a friendly, active companion who can bring both fun and love into your home, Dixie might just be the perfect fit! Come meet her and see if she’s the new best friend you’ve been waiting for!

More about this shelter

In August of 2015, the Idaho Falls community realized its dream of opening a second animal sheltering facility. Unlike other animal shelters, the Snake River Animal Shelter (SRAS) will provide an animal an unlimited length of stay, thus avoiding the need for euthanasia.

SRAS was built to take owner surrenders and transfer animals from other shelters throughout the Upper Snake River Valley, thus relieving overcrowding at the city operated animal shelters throughout East Idaho. We operate solely on donations, grants and sponsorships from businesses and individuals. This unique place offers adoption services and a place for the animals to socialize with each other and their future families. Education is a large part of the existence of this facility, educating the community about proper pet care and responsibilities. We also facilitate and partner in spay and neuter programs to alleviate the problem of too many unwanted domestic animals. Snake River Animal Shelter offers Elementary-age field trips, tours, and presentations and invites teens to participate in the care and feeding of the SRAS animals. Senior citizens are welcome guests and fulfill many volunteer positions that are essential for the care of our animals.
