2/6/2010 - Figures from the animal pounds in Fargo, Moorhead and West Fargo show that 379 cats and 25 dogs were euthanized at the local pounds in 2009. This was a recuction of 319 cat euthanizations and 60 dog euthanizations from 2008! Please continue to help pet rescue organizations by adopting homeless pets. The great majority of our pets come from the pound, so adopting allows us to rescue more from a needless death. Lets continue to drive these euthanization numbers down!

Adopt-A-Pet
of Fargo-Moorhead is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization;
It is a
completely volunteer-run, local
animal organization with the primary goal of placing
rescued pets in loving and responsible homes.
Adopt-A-Pet has NO shelter. Instead, foster homes
are used for the animals until they are adopted.
AAP operates under a no-kill policy. The animals
are kept under AAP care until a permanent home can be
found, no matter how long it takes. AAP is dedicated
to keeping the animals happy and healthy at all times
and the welfare of the animals is our primary concern.
AAP receives no government financial support and
is NOT affiliated with any other animal rescue organizations
in the Fargo-Moorhead area. AAP relies solely
on private donations, fundraising events, and adoption
fees to continue its operations. These funds help
cover the cost of food, medical supplies, and veterinary
expenses. We are 100% funded by your donations.
Monetary donations may be sent to:
Adopt-A-Pet
P.O. Box 865
Moorhead, MN 56561

Adopt-A-Pet pages.
