| We also receive animals from all of the
other surrounding counties and towns. They come to us from the Treasure
Valley, Oregon and Idaho. We have found new homes for dogs as far
away as New York, and have had dogs brought to us from owners as far
away as Colorado.
At the present time we are only able to accept dogs..
Our Kennels and Shelter are located on 2.8 acres of private land
in Malheur County.
Atherton Kennels & Shelter is family owned and operated by Michael
and Jana Laughlin since the spring of 1997.
Jana is the granddaughter of the original owners, James (Jim) and
Marcella Atherton.
Together my husband and I are striving to continue a strong family
tradition of loving and caring for the animals placed in our care.
We are Oregon State inspected and licensed Shelter and take pride
in maintaining the highest level of cleanliness and sanitation.
Our main goal at Atherton Kennels and Animal Shelter is to place
our animals back into their original homes, whenever possible. If
that doesnt happen then we work hard to place them with new loving
and caring families.
