December 17, 2011
A Memorial Donation of $50,000.00, in memory of Celia Grace Dollins, was received by Springdale Animal Services from her parents, Stephen and Cara Dollins. This donation was received on December 17, 2011; the anniversary of what would have been Celia's 15th birthday, as she was killed in a traffic accident on August 16, 2011.
Upon discussing the needs of the shelter, Cara and Stephen decided this generous contribution will be used to remodel and make improvements to the Cat/Puppy Room, enriching the living conditions and improving the general health and mental well-being of the cats and puppies at Springdale Animal Services facility. Should funds remain upon completion of this project, the remainder will help fund the construction of a partial roof over the outdoor exercise kennels.
Springdale Animal Services would like to thank the Dollins Family for allowing us to share in honoring Celia's memory on her birthday. We look forward to their further involvement and input in the development of this exciting project. Thank you for this generous contribution to the City of Springdale's Animal Services and the animals we shelter. |

Always accepting donations! Your help makes more of a difference than you know.
Springdale Animal Services provides shelter and care to over 3,000 animals each year. With the assistance of our generous donors we are able to provide even better care to these animals in need. The following “wish list” indicates some a few of our regular shelter needs.
- Dry and canned dog, puppy, cat, and kitten food
- Clay cat litter (No clumping litter please, too dusty/messy in our cages)
- Kuranda Pet Beds (can be ordered directly through our account)
- Grooming supplies, clippers, and blades
- Flea/Tick control (Frontline, K9 Advantage, etc.)
- Gift cards to pet supply stores
- Donations to our accounts at Crossover Veterinary Clinic, St. Francis Vet Clinic, and Best Friends Animal Hospital, to be used for vet care, spays/neuters, vaccines, and medications
- Donations to our Spay/Neuter Account (AS0701), Vaccination Account (AS0901), or Food Account (AS0902)
- Pet toys, collars, leashes, and treats
- Sponsorships to cover spay/neuter or adoption fees for specific animals to increase their adoptability.
We appreciate your interest in helping our community’s homeless animals. All donations are tax deductable and a receipt will be provided at your request. Donations may be dropped by the shelter during normal business hours or by appointment. Thank you for making our shelter and the animals we serve one of your priorities as well.
Special thanks to our generous business donors:
Walmart, Orscheln's, Tractor Supply, Fayetteville Target, Discount Distributors, Humane Society of the Ozarks, Freshpet, and others.
