Mohave County Animal Shelter

Kingman, AZ 86401

About

In July 2019 the Mohave County board of supervisors voted to take over operations of the shelter when no bids were received from outside animal care organizations. The county decided to continue to run the shelter with a no-kill ethic (it is an open intake shelter, so they must take every animal that comes in, and as such some are too sick or aggressive to adopt out to the community). During the first month of operation under County control, the shelter incurred over $12,000 in veterinary services. Financial and volunteer support was necessary to continue to care for animals in need. That is when the Friends of Mohave County Animal Shelter was created. Our group recognized the importance of creating a lasting organization to support the Mohave County Animal Shelter and have applied for our non-profit status. Our work has already begun through volunteering at adoption events, organizing fundraisers, and promoting awareness of the shelter.
