Well, I’ve always told my team that I would never ask them to do something that I wouldn’t do myself.

So… meet Charlie—my foster from Evansville Animal Care & Control (Official)! ❤️🐾

As you know, we’re doing everything we can to keep new furbabies out of our shelter while we continue caring for the animals already in our facility. Several of our team members have stepped up to foster. Officer Emily Blair and Officer Briget Renee have taken puppies home, Operations Manager Jenn Williams has fostered several dogs, and now it’s my turn to add a castaway to my crew!

Since I have a soft spot for Yorkies, Charlie will be joining my Crew for a little slumber pawty as he settles into life on Gilligan’s Island. 🏝️

Stay tuned as we share Charlie’s big adventure and follow his journey. I have a feeling this little castaway is going to steal a lot of hearts!

Wow… what a week, and we’re only halfway through it.

Unfortunately, we still don’t have all the answers, but we are getting answers about what we can rule out. I want to assure everyone that our team is working diligently alongside our veterinary partners to determine exactly what is causing these illnesses so we can continue providing the best possible care for our shelter animals.

We know many of you have heard that Terre Haute has temporarily closed due to parvo. We want to reassure our community that our dogs have tested negative for parvo. We have sent several additional diagnostic tests to specialized laboratories and are anxiously awaiting those results. As soon as we have confirmed information to share, we will continue to provide updates. My goal has been, and will continue to be, to be as transparent as possible throughout this process.

I do have one request. Please help us by allowing the facts to guide the conversation. We understand there are many questions and concerns, but speculation and rumors can make an already difficult situation even harder for our team and our community. As soon as we have confirmed information, we promise to share it with you. We are committed to being open, honest, and transparent every step of the way.

I cannot thank our community enough for the incredible outpouring of support. Your hugs, phone calls, text messages, prayers, donations, kind words, and offers to help have meant the world to me and our entire team. During difficult times like these, your compassion reminds us that we are not facing this alone.

A special thank you to my sister for the beautiful flowers. They brought a much-needed smile during a very difficult week and reminded me just how blessed I am to have such an amazing family standing beside me.

Thank you for believing in us, supporting us, and standing with us as we work tirelessly to care for every animal in our shelter. Together, we will get through this. ❤️🐾 ... See MoreSee Less

There are always people who choose to sit on the sidelines and criticize. But when times get tough, you quickly learn who the true animal advocates and supporters are. They’re the ones reaching out to ask, “How can I help?” instead of spreading rumors or gossip.

This past week has been heartbreaking for our entire Evansville Animal Care & Control (Official) family. We have lost three precious dogs—Buddy, Samson, and Anchor. Every loss weighs heavily on us because every life matters.

Please know that our team is doing everything possible to determine what is happening so we can protect the animals in our care and prevent this from happening again. At this time, we do not know the cause. We are working closely with our veterinary partners, and multiple tests are being performed. Until we have answers, we are taking every precaution possible, including:

• Revaccinating our dogs as recommended by our veterinary team.
• Treating animals based on their symptoms and veterinary guidance.
• Thoroughly cleaning and disinfecting every kennel.
• Wearing appropriate PPE and changing it between kennel areas.
• Continuing to provide enrichment, love, and daily care while keeping our animals as safe as possible.

This has been one of the hardest weeks our Team has faced. These aren’t just shelter dogs to us—they are part of our family. We celebrate every adoption, we cheer for every recovery, and when we lose one, our hearts break. Please keep our team in your prayers as we continue caring for every animal who walks through our doors.

If you would like to help, here are a few ways you can make an immediate difference:

🐾 Donate a weatherproof donation box that can be placed outside the shelter for after-hours donations.
🐾 Donate large trash cans with wheels & secure lids.
🐾 Donate Frontline or Advantix flea prevention for dogs and cats.
🐾 Donate large Milk-Bone® biscuits.
🐾 Donate cat treats.
🐾 Help us by sharing our upcoming Jeep Run fundraiser.
🐾 Most importantly, keep our team in your prayers and show kindness. We are grieving too, and every member of our team is doing everything humanly possible to save the animals entrusted to our care.

To everyone who has reached out with prayers, encouragement, donations, and offers to help—thank you. Your compassion reminds us that we are not fighting this battle alone. We promise to keep working until we have answers and will continue doing everything we can for the animals who depend on us.

In Buddy, Samson & Anchor’s memories, we will find out the answers we need.
