Dogs moved from Malvern Animal Shelter

“BISSELL Pet Foundation is committed to supporting the shelters that need us the most. The City of Malvern Animal Shelter is working to protect community pets, but have become overwhelmed,” said Cathy Bissell, Founder of BISSELL Pet Foundation. “After being contacted that the shelter needed help, we are giving the staff a much-needed break from being over capacity by facilitating and funding transport. It is our hope that the people of Malvern will get involved by adopting, fostering or donating.”

The City of Malvern Animal Shelter is at capacity after recently taking in around 30 dogs in urgent need from one surrender, all of whom will be transferred to ARC, among others. Once transported to Animal Rescue Corps’ Rescue Operation Center, pets will have medical and behavioral assessments before further placement. This collaborative rescue effort will ensure that these dogs find loving homes at BISSELL Pet Foundation partner shelters and rescues.

“Animal Rescue Corps is grateful to be here making a difference in the lives of animals in Arkansas,” said Tim Woodward, Executive Director of Animal Rescue Corps. “We are honored to be working side by side with BISSELL Pet Foundation in their mission to support shelters in rural and underserved areas.”
