8/3 update: Jamie has been ADOPTED!

8/1 update:
We know that there are a lot of people out there invested in finding this girl her home! We have now received some applications and are working through them! We are in communication with some potential adopters trying to set up a time to meet and potentially take this sweet girl home. So, if you have submitted an application but haven't heard from us, please have patience with us as we work through these applications! We work through them in the order that they are received. We are a very small shelter trying to coordinate with multiple different people to find this girl her forever home!

From the bottom of our hearts, we truly thank everyone that has shared her picture! We're so close to getting this girl into her new home, and we couldn't have done it without the help of everyone spreading the word! We receive no public funding, so we really mean it when we say that we can't do what we do without the support and generosity of our community, and for Jamie, our community seemed to grow exponentially! So again, from the bottom of our hearts, we thank you!

Original post:
We have been posting Jamie every single day for 34 straight days now, and she has had basically no interest in her. For some animals, we make a single post and are overwhelmed with applications, but that isn't the case for this sweet girl. People rarely come to play with her, and applications for her are basically non-existent.

We know not every home would be a perfect fit for her since she needs a home with no other animals. But even if you have other pets, you can still help Jamie out by spreading the word about her...talk to your friends and family or even just share her posts. We're not going to give up on her, but we need your help to find her forever home!

Jamie is 2 years old and she needs a home where she is the only animal. She LOVES her people and playing with toys. Office time and yard time are her favorite things in the world, especially when that means she gets to hang out with people. Her adoption fee is SPONSORED! (Edit: located in Jasper, Indiana)

✅✅✅ NOW OPEN: S.R. 59 over Otter Creek between U.S. 40 and U.S. 36 is now open to traffic!

Crews were able to get it done in about 3 weeks, instead of the anticipated month and a half! 👏

You may see a brief flagging operation in the coming days, but with that exception, traffic flow should improve in the area.
