My story

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

My name is River and I couldn`t believe that I was left at the shelter after being such a good girl but my family moved and they couldn`t have pets. I really looked for them when they left me but I now know that I need to love a new family just as much. I am a medium sized girl around 30 pounds. I am house trained and will sleep in a kennel but I much prefer being snuggled up to a family member. I can take apart a stuffed toy in a matter of minutes but a hard bouncing ball is more my thing. I lived with another dog and some kids so I would be fine with them as well. Call the shelter at 903-886-1160 or even better just come by and ask to meet River.

More about this shelter

The Commerce Animal Shelter is a small rural shelter that cares for and makes every effort to find the perfect homes for orphaned dogs and cats. We strive to educate the public regarding animal care and will assist our community in any way we can.

We accept abandoned, stray and owner surrendered dogs and cats from Hunt County Texas and after a health screening and behavioral screening pets are placed for adoption. All adoptions include the pet's spay/neuter and Rabies vaccine. Other medical treatment is available for low cost fees, such as Distemper/Parvovirus vaccines, Bordetella vaccine, Microchip, Heart worm test, Heart worm preventative, Intestinal parasite testing and deworming.

Through the assistance of donations from loving people we can begin necessary medical treatment for some of our shelter orphans. We can begin vaccinating puppies against Distemper and Parvovirus, begin treatment for intestinal parasites, heart worm testing for adult dogs and we have even been able to assist pets with mange treatment. We would be happy to accept donations to medical treatment for any one of our orphans while they wait for forever homes.

We also welcome rescue organizations with current 501 c3. Just email your paperwork and let me know who is an authorized transporter, and the pet's name and ID# that you would like to tag for rescue.
