It works aggressively to place each animal that comes through its doors into a loving, permanent home. The shelter receives no operational funding from the local or federal governments, or any national animal welfare organization.

The Reisterstown-Owings Mills-Glyndon Chamber of Commerce, founded in 1949, has as its mission “to serve as the ‘go-to’ resource in our community by advocating and promoting prosperity through innovative leadership and sound partnerships.”
