Adopt a Pet

The shetler currently has dogs available for adoption that are all looking for a place to call home.  Our website has most available dogs located on the website, but it is always best just to come down and look to see what is available for adoption.

Closed Tuesday's

 In an effort to increase our capacity to provide quality customer service we will be closed every tuesday from 1:00p.m.-2:00p.m to conduct our weekly staff meeting. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your understanding and support.

Open Saturday's

The shelter is now open from 10:00a.m.-12:00 p.m. on saturday's.  Adoptions will be until 11:30 a.m.

Volunteers

The North Utah Valley Animal Shelter now has a volunteer program.  Volunteers must be 16 years of age or older to volunteer and applications can be filled out at the shelter.  Volunteers will be able to volunteer monday thru friday from 9:00a.m.-5:00p.m.

Kuranda Dog Beds

The shelter has found a great company that sells dog beds at a discounted price to shelters.  Here at the shelter we do our best to keep these animals as comfortable as possible during their stay with us and feel that dog beds would make them feel that much more at home. To donate go to kuranda.com and select The North Utah Valley Animal Shelter.

Pet tip of the week

Check with your vet to see if your dog might need sunscrean.  Dogs can get a sunburn just as easily as people.  Dogs with the light pink nose and ears are more likely to get sunburned easier.

Dog licensing

Anyone who has experienced the panic and sorrow of having a lost dog knows how important it is to license your pet.  Our pets look to us as owners to provide food, water, shelter, and to bring them home when they have wondered.  One of the best and most basic things we can do for our dogs is to license them. A license is an up-to-date, visible identification of your pet with many other benefits including:

• Identifies you dog and allows you to be quickly reunited with them in case they ever get losts
• Helps veterinarians contact pet owners should your pet become injured and be in need of life saving medical treatment
• Ensures that dogs are vaccinated against rabies, a fatal disease
• Saves the owner money on impound fees
• Assures compliance with Utah State law and therefore forbids a citation for not having a license
• Helps anyone who finds you pet know that your pet has an owner and is not an abandoned animal in need of a home
• Allows animal control and animal shelters the ability to attempt to reach owners
• Is a key to emergency planning helping owners and pets reunite in the event of a seperation during an emergency

Licensing you dog saves you time, money and is a ticket home for your pet.

Surrendering a pet

The cost to surrender a pet to the shelter is $25.00 per animal.  Once you have signed the animal  over it becomes property of The North Utah Valley Animal Shelter. 

VIP Pet

A vip pet is not only a shetler favorite, but possibly your new best friend as well. Vip pets are $200 dollars and the extra money that is donated goes to helping the other available pet in getting adopted.
