UPDATE: March 2020 As a result of the COVID-19 virus and the restrictions on public gatherings, the Wild Whiskers event to be held on April 4 has been cancelled. We will have some silent auction items available through Facebook. We hope to be able to have an event this summer, we will let you know as we get closer! Thank you so much for your support! We appreciate everyone so much! 
TCRAS would like to thank the Animal Assistance Foundation for supporting TCRAS with a generous grant for The Paw in Hand Behavior Modification Program!
This grant is unique in that it supports families that are struggling with a furry family member’s challenging behavior and feel that surrendering their pet is the only option available. This program is open to Teller County residents and their companion pet, even if the cat or dog was not adopted from TCRAS. The Paw in Hand Program will help keep more pets in their homes, reducing returns and surrenders to the shelter and creating a positive solution for everyone involved. To qualify for the program, pet owners will meet with a TCRAS staff member to discuss their unique situation. If it is determined that this program would be beneficial for the family, we will work with them to find them the right Training or Behavior Specialist specialist to help with the challenging behavior. At TCRAS, we are committed to “Forever improving the lives of animals in our community” and we so appreciate the Animal Assistance Foundation for supporting us in this important mission. To find out more about the Paw in Hand Program, please contact the shelter at 719-686-7707, office@tcras.org or stop by 308 Weaverville Road (behind the Sheriffs office) in Divide. 
TCRAS is so honored to have received a $7,500 investment from the Petco Foundation to help extend our efforts and serve the Petco Foundation’s mission to raise the quality of life for pets and people who love and need them. This Lifesaving Investment grant helps pay for the care that an animal needs to be ready for their forever home including: vaccinations, spay and neuter surgeries and necessary medical treatment. Thank you Petco Foundation!! We appreciate you helping us in our mission to continue “Forever improving the lives of animals in our community.”
