My story

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

Ringo is just 8 months old, and he was surrendered to our shelter because his owner couldn't afford to take care of him. Ringo is a Terrier mix; possibly Yorkshire Terrier or even Norfolk Terrier mix. The owner thought there could be some Chihuahua thrown in the breed mix. Ringo's coat is medium length and sort of tan/gold in coloring. This sweet, cute little guy is good with all ages of people; babies, all ages of children, and adults. He is active and playful. He does bite playfully, but can get carried away with excitement. He may have been spoiled in previous home and has a bad habit of eating off of people's plates. We don't believe Ringo is housebroken, and will need some instruction and training. Being a Terrier mix, Ringo will need regular grooming, so be prepared for that if thinking of adopting him. Amarillo SPCA, 11901 S. Coulter. Open Tuesday through Saturday, 12 to 5 p.m. 806-622-0555.

More about this shelter

The Amarillo SPCA is a 501(c)3 non profit organization. We operate solely on donations and fundraisers.

Presently, we operate a shelter for dogs and cats. We have approximately 100 animals housed at the shelter and in foster care.

One of our main concerns is pet over population. It is important that the public be educated about the importance of spaying and neutering their pets. It is also our goal to make sure every animal that is adopted from the SPCA is sterilized before going to a new home.

We receive calls daily from people who request help with their animals--either needing to give them up or asking for help with food and medical needs. We help whenever we can, but financially we're not able to help often.

We have grown to the extent that volunteers alone cannot provide necessary hours for operating the kennels. We have a shelter manager and other part time employees for the care of the animals and maintenance of our facility.

Costs for our facility include payroll for these employees, good quality food for the animals, heat and air conditioning, medical treatment for sickness or injury. Additional costs for the animals always include vaccinations, deworming, microchipping and sterilization before leaving the shelter to go to new homes. Our vet bills are high and frequently expenses are far more than the adoption fee of $100. Therefore donations are hugely appreciated! We look forward to your contribution and particularly to your interest in one of our dogs or cats as a permanent companion.

Thanks so much, Amarillo SPCA
