Starting out, our goal was to help our community Dog Pound enter into the 21st century. For many years, the city of Granby had a pre-historic pound. Over time there was what would have been considered a band aid applied to a gun shot wound, 3 makeshift stalls to hold dogs found as strays inside the city limits. No electricity, no water, the dogs had been left out in the weather. Rain, sleet , snow and hail. It isn't just the Post Office motto, it was the way of life in the pound setting. Having no animal control, proper, in the city limits, our beloved police department had to pull extra duty providing for the welfare of the dogs. With the dedication of the incredible Catherine McFadden, and the drive and determination of our Granby community funds have been raised to lay the foundation (literally) of the new Granby Dog Pound.
Seeing what had been accomplished, we wanted to go a step further. We want to help the rest of our Granby community with not only the stray dogs, but we have now started with stray cats as well. We have started a TNR (Trap-neuter-return) program for the community, this is no longer confined to the city limits. The Granby Dog Pound is still operated for the dogs inside city limits, but; we in ENAC will now assist in the rural area as well.
We have established contacts with other area rescues and shelters to transfer the city's homeless and neglected dogs out to loving homes.
As our motto says, Rescue: It's not just a verb, it's a promise!
