Creating positive change for pets through community collaboration and education

Almost 12,000 animals entered the Tulsa Animal Welfare shelter in 2012.

Only 651 were reclaimed by their owners.

Only 2,533 were adopted.

1,056 were pulled by dedicated area rescue groups.

The rest – nearly 7,500 – were destroyed because they didn’t have a home.

We can turn these numbers around.

Cities across the U.S. are doing it every day.

Vigo County, IN. Tompkins County, NY. San Diego, CA. Albemarle County, VA. Washoe County, NV. Dane County, WI.  Bartlesville. Stillwater. Oklahoma City.

How? It takes commitment and hard work from the community. Everyone working together.

You can make a difference.
