Boarding Animals:
Important Notice:
Boarding services offered by the Fort Smith Animal Society are severely restricted.
While boarding services are the most important revenue stream we have, the effort to care for boarders is intensive, time consuming and immensely stressful on the volunteers.
At the present time the requirements of caring for boarders has become too much for our limited volunteer base to continue at previous normal levels. For now boarding is restricted to 3 kennels at any one time. When those kennels are occupied or scheduled for occupation there will be no additional boarders taken in.
It is advisable to reserve boarding well in advance. All boarding is on a first come first served basis.
The Fort Smith Animal Society provides short term boarding on a limited basis. Boarding is on a first come first served basis and advanced booking requests of at least 14 days (or more) are recommended. Pets are required to have current vaccinations and be in compliance with all Town Of Fort Smith Bylaws. Boarding is limited to pets that have been spayed/neutered. NO intact pets will be boarded. Boarding must be approved by Dottie 872-4270 or Dixie 872-3516 prior to boarding commencing.
