IndyHumane to offer vaccine services and other resources through collaborative partnership in underserved area of Indianapolis

IndyHumane announced today that it will open its long awaited Animal Welfare Center on the near Westside at Holmes and West Michigan Streets in the Haughville neighborhood. The organization will be one of the first of its kind in the nation to provide animal welfare partner groups with phone lines, a physical address, and a presence in the city’s target neighborhoods.

The IndyHumane Animal Welfare Center, which will open in the spring of 2012, will house the Albert G. and Sara I. Reuben Vaccination Clinic, and will offer low cost cat and dog vaccines. The center will also provide pet-care resources and assistance with feral cats, pit bulls, and chained dogs via the efforts of the IndyHumane Outreach/Education Coordinator and our partner groups: IndyFeral, Friends of Indianapolis Dogs Outside (FIDO), and Indy Pit Crew.

Humane Society of Indianapolis temporarily suspending medium-to-large canine intake

Dog kennels are being painted to improve overall well-being of the animals; foster families needed

Cracked, chipped, and peeling paint prevalent throughout the two main public dog adoption kennels is causing the Humane Society of Indianapolis (IndyHumane) to temporarily suspend intake of adult, medium-to-large dogs so that the kennels may be painted.  Christine Jeschke, director of operations for IndyHumane, is asking the public to be patient – and consider fostering a dog while the painting is in process.

Previously scheduled appointments will be honored. Placement of dogs currently residing at IndyHumane will be a challenge, but one for which Jeschke and her staff are prepared.
