Wanda and I just left WQSB radio station. We took a couple of dogs from the shelter and welcomed people who brought dog food for the Woofstock 2026 event. When we arrived we were very near the ten thousand pound mark, by now I am certain we have surpassed that amount. This is the final day of the event, and we want to thank WQSB, Dixie Designs (for the t-shirts), (B.Y.O.B.) Bring Your Own Bids in Rainbow City for serving as a collection point, and to everybody who took money out of their wallet and time out of their day and made this a success. You still have until 5:00 P.M. to drop off a bag of food at the radio station or B.Y.O.B on Rainbow Drive. You can also call the shelter at (256)-561-2441 and make a donation with a credit/debit card over the phone. Remember, if you donate thirty pounds of food you get the satisfaction of knowing you have given thirty dogs at the shelter, their daily bread. We appreciate and need your support - Have a great day - Doug

Hello Y'all. My name is Shirley. I will hanging out all this week at our Second Chance Shelter Hidden Gems Thrift Store # 2 in Albertville, Alabama from 9 am to 5 pm. You can see me in the video below with Becky who loves me. I am 5 years old. I am blind in one eye but that doesn't slow me down one bit. I love people and my friends say I am a love bug. I walk good on a leash. I am up for adoption. Please come visit me at the store. You will be glad you did. I was rescued by Marshall County Animal Control of Alabama back on October 15, 2020. I came to Second Chance Shelter in Boaz, Alabama the same day along with my sister Laverne. I have been at the shelter since I was 1 year old. My human friends brought me to the Store to hang out and hopefully someone will see me and take me home with them. Wouldn't that be great. Please share this post so more people can see that I am available for adoption. See you there. 7 year old Parish is looking for his forever family and home. Come visit these sweet dogs.

The SCS Thrift Store is located at 6485 US Highway 431 South in Albertville, Alabama. We are across the street from Autozone. Also, look for our sign on the red brick building with a blue roof (the side of the building is white with a blue roof). Our friendly staff will help you with any questions about Meeko and Chicha or any of the merchandise in the store. Our TV in the pet section has a slide show that shows other puppies and dogs that are up for adoption. All proceeds from the store or any adoption goes to help Second Chance Shelter in Boaz, Alabama take care of all of the dogs that are at the shelter. Look forward to seeing all of you there this week. All the dogs are up for adoption. They are up to date on all shots, fixed and microchipped. The adoption fee is only $ 60.00 for this bundle of joy 🙂 Come visit us and shop some while you are here.
