Donations - How You Can Help the Animals

Too often, we see animals coming into our care with severe trauma or extreme conditions such as diabetes, liver failure, Parvo and other acute medical conditions (see Bullet's story below). CCAS goes above and beyond every day to ensure the animals get the care and treatment they need, but the frequency at which we see these extreme cases coming in far outweighs our financial ability to provide comprehensive care. That is why we need your help.

Making a donation is simple and only takes a minute or two. Click on the donate button in the top right portion of the page to support animals in our care.  

Bullet's Story

Throughout this campaign we will be providing stories to demonstrate the need of this funding appeal, as well as the far lengths our medical team goes to ensure the animals get high-level and compassionate care. One such story is Bullet the dog. Bullet was a dog that was shot in a drive-by shooting in Concord and taken to CCAS. Our medical team stabilized him, took x-rays, removed the bullets from his leg and ultimately amputated his leg (see photos below). Our medical staff worked with Bullet to make sure he could thrive as a tri-ped. CCAS also created widespread media coverage of this story that resulted in Bullet being adopted by his new family. At many other public shelters in the country, a dog presenting with the same condition as Bullet may have been euthanized due to the high cost of caring for these types of cases. Bullet’s story is a great example of the lengths the CCAS medical staff will go to ensure happy endings and forever homes for the animals in our care. This is why we need your help!
