MCAS needs to spay/neuter all dogs before adoption, especially the females and purebred dogs! Management is failing the dogs and the community, and they have had 6 YEARS to resolve this issue! 

They recently adopted out *together* an intact male/female pair of purebred small dogs!! By failing their legal obligation to spay/neuter all adoption animals management has created a MUCH LARGER problem for homeless pets. .....WHAT are they thinking??? They could easily have created a simple, effective offsite medical  facility years ago that would only focus on the spay/neutering of the animals. .

.but...it's not the dogs' fault, and the dogs need good adopters! 

 1/6/26 "I'm available for a pre-select adoption but I can't go home yet. Please come to the shelter to apply!
