About Animal Protection Society of Durham
   The Animal Protection Society of Durham has been helping animals since 1970. The APS of Durham is a non-profit organization dedicated to protecting and providing shelter for all animals. Our mission is to educate the public about the humane care and treatment of animals, promote spay/neuter and encourage the adoption of homeless animals.

We care for nearly 7,000 dogs, cats, puppies, and kittens each year. Every day we provide safe, clean living quarters for hundreds of animals that come into our shelter.

In addition to providing shelter to animals, we also provide low-cost rabies and microchip clinics to the public and educational programs to local schools and civic groups.

We are a non-profit organization that relies on donations from our members and other donors in the community in order to fund these programs.

Diana, or as we call her "Rosie", is a wonderful girl who has settled in to her forever home beautifully. She went to the beach with us two days after she arrived in her home, so we all had a nice week of bonding. While she loved the smells at the beach and running int he sand, she does not like to get her paws wet!

Rosie is such a well adjusted, social, intelligent, delight of a furry girl. She has bonded with "her girl", our six year old daughter and sleeps in her room (and, after the lights go out, in her bed I suspect!) She is picking up on the routines of her home very quickly. She loves cuddling and having her belly rubbed

It is such a joy to watch Rosie play with our golden retriever, Holly, who was adopted through Neusse River Golden Retriever Rescue after being rescued from a puppy mill.

Thanks so much for helping us adopt Rosie!!
