This established animal welfare organization operates from the Lisa Mitzen Animal Care Center in Menands, serving the Capital Region since 1887. The facility provides comprehensive adoption services for cats and dogs, along with specialized support programs designed to help pet owners maintain their relationships with their animals. Their approach focuses on keeping families together through practical assistance and education. Pet owners can access several valuable services including a complimentary behavior helpline for training and behavioral concerns, affordable veterinary care options, and a pet food pantry for families experiencing financial difficulties. The organization also offers professional dog training classes led by certified trainers in small group settings. Additional community programs include cruelty investigation services and various educational initiatives. The facility maintains regular operating hours Monday through Saturday, with extended weekday hours to accommodate working pet owners. Beyond direct animal care, they host special adoption events and community gatherings throughout the year. Their comprehensive approach combines immediate animal welfare needs with long-term community support, making them a significant resource for both current pet owners and those considering adoption.
