Stray Animals Currently at JHS
If you have lost a pet, review the profiles below. If you believe one of these is your pet, bring the appropriate ID and proof of animal ownership (medical records and photographs) of the animal to JHS as soon as possible.
Pets have a 6-day stray hold before being released for adoption at JHS. Pets may be pre-adopted while at JHS on their stray hold but will not leave the shelter until the 6-day stray hold period has ended. Some of the pets pictured on this page may have already been pre-adopted.
Some pets may be cared for in the finder’s home during the stray hold period, as noted in the pet’s profile. Those pets are not in the shelter and not available for adoption.
Names shown were assigned to animals upon arrival.
