Tiny Homes

We are thrilled to announce that ACS is leading the change in shelter kenneling by building “tiny homes” for our dogs!

These tiny homes are be fully heated and air-conditioned, and each home provides dogs with full access to their own fenced-in, astroturfed yard.

Not only are these homes cost-effective; they will limit disease spread, and the home-like environment will cut down on kennel stress. Kennel stress can lead to dogs developing behavior challenges which in turn can lead to longer stays in the shelter backing up the entire shelter system while we work to help these dogs overcome the challenges that being in a traditional kennel brings. Disease spread is an issue in every traditional kennel and challenges us financially as we provide expensive medical treatment and break our hearts when we are sometimes faced with preventable deaths.

We are confident these homes will allow ACS to save lives like never before and that this will become the new normal for shelter housing across the country. We would be thrilled to have you on this journey with us!
