The SPCA Albrecht Center is a limited admission, no-kill animal shelter that was established in 1935. Our mission is to help the stray, abandoned, abused or neglected animals as well as the people who love them.
Our nonprofit organization operates a low-cost veterinary center that no only offers services to our shelter animals but also to members of our community.
Phideaux University is another program that we offer to our shelter dogs and dogs who already have homes. These classes teach canines life skills and improve their confidence in efforts to prevent them from returning to our shelter or being surrendered due to behavioral issues.
We also offer humane education to local schools in effort to instill the trait of proper treatment of animals in our youth.
We depend upon local donations to support our efforts to save the lives of homeless dogs and cats in our community and receive no regular funding from state or federal agencies, or from the ASPCA (a completely separate entity.)
Our success is due to the efforts of dedicated SPCA Albrecht Center employees and volunteers, leadership and support from our Board of Directors, as well as the generous donations and continued support of our community.
