We have 65 at our Carson Campus, 276 at our Reno Campus, and 446 in the care of our foster volunteers. The Carson Campus dog kennels are at 72.41% capacity and the Reno Campus dog kennels are at 81.69% capacity.
235 animals came into our campuses last week – a 6% decrease from the previous week. NHS received 56 Owner/Guardian Surrenders (-30 animals from the previous week), 27 Strays (+18 animals from the previous week) and 54 Good Samaritan Strays (+24 animals from the previous week). We also transferred in 49 cats, 34 dogs, and 0 other animals from our close partners at Washoe County Regional Animal Services.
118 cats, 70 dogs, and 10 others were adopted last week – this is 8 fewer cats, 21 additional dogs, and 9 additional other animals compared to the previous week. We were able to reunite 1 cats (+0 from the previous week) and 5 dogs (-2 from the previous week) with their owners.
