A Parade

St. Patrick's Day Parade: postponed

The Irish are a hardy bunch but we have to listen when the experts speak! 

Scituate's famous and beloved St. Patrick's Day Parade has been postponed.  A new date will be announced.   

In light of the Coronavirus outbreak, we are closely following the CDC's guidelines regarding gatherings.  

Therefore, we have regrettably cancelled the party at The Draft on 53.  We are hopeful that we will re-schedule at a later date!

Please contact us at info@scituateanimalshelter.org 

if you have already purchased tickets to this event.

This year, our friend Lauren McDonough will be running the Boston Marathon to raise money for our pets. 

Lauren was moved by the urgent need for medical care for shelter pets; many of the animals that SAS helps come to us with expensive medical conditions.

Lauren is a Rockland resident and mom to two dogs.   We are so grateful to business sponsors Orange Theory and Bay State Paving for supporting this effort!

Sunday May 17th 8:00 am

The second annual Scituate 5K9 road race takes place on May 17th.  Runners of all abilities are encouraged to participate...and dogs are welcome!

Need another reason to lace up your sneakers? Proceeds from the  fun race will be split between the Scituate Animal Shelter and the Friends of Scituate Dog Park.   Info at Scituate5K9@gmail.com

More opportunities for kids

We are currently expanding our programs for youth volunteers.   

Opportunities will include programs for young children to read to shelter pets, work with our marketing team to publicize animals in search of homes, and to become more involved in nearly all aspects of running a busy animal charity.  Watch this space! 

Supplies needed!

A busy shelter is always in need of items to keep running.  Donations of supplies help us to spend our funds where they really matter:  on taking care of our pets and funding our humane initiatives in the community.
