NK Animal Shelter Open House

Annual North Kingstown Animal Shelter

2012 Open House & Family Day 

June 02, between 11:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. will be a special day for the folks of North Kingstown. We all will get to visit our animal shelter on 395 Hamilton Allenton Road for a fun open house & family day. A special treat is to watch the wonderful exhibit the RI State Police and their trained K9 members put on for all our benefit. Guests that day will also include the North Kingstown Police K-9 Response Team. The Friends of the North Kingstown Animal Shelter, who sponsor this annual event, also have many other treats in store to keep everyone happy and busy. A popular, unique attraction this year will be “Angel”, an Animal Communicator/Psychic who will be able to connect you with your beloved (recent or past ) pet to better understand her/his needs and feelings. You will have the opportunity to take your picture as a famous cartoon character and purchase the photo immediately. Take advantage of a $5.00 nail clipping for your dog from our professional groomer. The Bake Table will be chocked with many goodies baked by town residents and donations from our so generous local businesses as well as a BARK table with donated items from Johnnie’s Barking bakery for our four legged friends. Animal adoption information will be provided by our town animal officers, Holly and Erin. Of course, the stars of the Open House are the cats and dogs who reside at the NK Animal Shelter. You see, our goal is always to find good homes for all our animals, no matter how love and training it takes. All monies raised by The Friends of the NK Animal Shelter are used to Spay, Neuter and provide any medical attention required to make our furry friends healthy and happy.
