3 Things to Know about Putnam's Animal Shelter

Keep reading for information on job opportunities, lost pets and more.

Welcome back to Southeast-Brewster Patch's weekly Animal in Need column.

Usually, we visit the Putnam Humane Society (PHS) and write about a dog or cat. This week, we're providing you with three pieces of information, based on notes from the shelter's website.

  • PHS is hiring. Management is looking for kennel staff. Applicants—who should be at least 18, "have a clean driver's license, be able to do physically demanding work" and more—may swing by the shelter (which is located on Old Route 6 in Carmel) and pick up a form.
  • Donations of all sorts are always welcome at PHS. Staff members have broken down the needs into the following categories: "for our doggies and kitties, for our office, for our kennel." Click here to learn more.
  • Here's what you should do if you, or someone you know, has lost a dog or cat: 
    Please email, call, or go to the shelter and provide us with a description and/or photo of your lost pet.

Um...Since I live in Southeast, I can't vote for Mayor of the Village of Brewster. So why do youRead More think I, a taxpayer of Southeast, paid for this destruction when I really don't have a clue to what happens in the Village? There's a disconnect that needs to addressed.

Great topics. I really like Mr Jacobs point of view on education. Also "A recipe for aRead More meaningful education." Always looking for more ideas on this topic. After all it is your child education-why not let then be involved in decisions. Look forward to April 12th. Thank you to Longview for offering this great event.
